28 THE SAN fBANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1903. CABINET IS SUMMONED FOR SPECIAL MEETING London’s Political Atmosphere Is Thick With Ru- mors of the Impending Collapse of the Balfour Ministry and the Calling of a General Election ARTISTS OPPOGE GABINET ORDER Object to Gallery Being Taken From Borlin's Control Ascribe the Change to the Initiative of Emperor William. BERLIN, Sept. 12.—The Prussian Cab- inet order of Wednesday taking the na- tional gallery from the control of the Berlin municipality and placing it under the Ministry of Public Instructions Is badly recelved by the artists and by the city authorities. The order is ascribed to the Initiative of Emperor William, whose opinion as to what ought to go in the gallery has several times diverged from that of the Municipal Art Commis- sion and Herr von Schudi, director of the gallery. For instance, the commission recently bought Kempf's “Two BSisters” of this season’'s academy. What the Emperor thought of that work is related by Kempf, who, as the commissioner in charge of the academy’'s exhibit, showed the Em- peror around. “Who painted this abominable thing?"” inquired the Emperor, stopping in front of the “Two Slsters.” “I did, your Majesty,” Kempf. Director von Tschudl wanted the gal- lery to have a Whistler and had arrang- ed to buy “Noturine No. 3, St. Mark’s,” but the city commission in this case re- fused to support Herr von Tschudi be- se, it is said, the Emperor suggested the picture was not needed. = e replied Herr . | WORKHOUSE DIRECTORS ARE SENT TO PRISON | | German Officials Are Convicted of | Jnhuman Treatment of In- [ mates of Reformatory.

The train was bound for Duluth and as a terrific rainstorm raged during the night the engineer had orders to pro- ceed carefully. The train was running at a speed of four miles an hour when the washout was struck. The engine passed over it safely, but the tender, baggage car and three coaches were derafled. The other seven cars of the train remained on the track. Conway was riding in the combination car and was caught beneath the wreckage and instantly killed. Brown was passing from the third to the fourth car at the time of the accident and in breaking apart the cars threw him to the ground and were piled on top of him, crushing him to death. A number of the other passengers were slightly hurt, their injurieg consistitz mainly of minor cuts and bruises. Only the fact that the train was running slowly at the time of the accident prevented a serious disaster. —_——— POPE LEO’'S NEPHEWS ASK FOR CARDINAL'S ESTATE Request Executors That Division Bs Made of Wealth of Late Pon- tiff’s Brother. | ROME, Sept. 12—When Cardinal Giu- | seppe Pecci, the brother of the late Pope, | died, Leo had all the Cardinal's heirs re- nounce their claims to the inheritance, as- suring themt they would be adequately | compensated.
