Just as his Eminence arrived | coming out to receive a body of Sardin- ian pilgrims who were in waiting. Upon seeing the Cardinal, however, his Holiness insisted upon re-entering |the apartments, saying that he was anxious to hear about “dear Ameri- ca” and to have confirmed by the Cardinals the accounts of the cordial reception given him, as told in his | communications to the Vatican. His | Holiness said he was greatly moved by such manifestations and highly appreé- ciated such a general disposition to- ward loyalty on the part of the people |of the United States and expressed great satisfaction ‘at the reception :gx\'nn to Cardinal Satolli, adding: “It is a consolation at this moment, when others are causing me so much | griet.” In reply to a question’ by his Holi- ness regarding the condition of Ca- tholicism in America; the Cardinal said that the Catholic church in Amer- ica had not any official relations with the state, but was in such a condition that it did not envy the position of the church in countries where official re- lations existed.

REPLIES TO AN INQUIRY Defines Status of Ships Plying Be- tween San Francisco and the Canal Port, WASHINGTON, Aug. — The Bu- reau of Navigation of the Treasury Department has answered in the af- | firmative a question propounded by the | | customs division whether United States | vessels engaged in trading between San [anciseo and Ancon, but touching at |Mexlcan ports, would be considered as | engaged in the foreign trade. Cate- lgorlcany the reply was that so far as Mexican ports are concerned such ves- sels unquestionably would be engaged | in the foreign trade. * This decision will give to steam ves- | sels registered under the United States laws, engaged in the foreign and coast- wise trade, a drawback on coal used by them as fuel equal to the duty paid on the coal when imported into the United States. An inquiry on this point came to the department from some San Francisco interests. * This decision, it i§ said at the Treas- ury Department, does not settle the question whether Ancon is or is not in the Panama canal zoneé, an interpre- tation given it in some’ quarters.

The weather was per- | fect and the affalr passed off without a hitch. The Governor, in speaking of the review, sald: “I have been in the State militia since 1872. This is the best and really the only camp the militia has ever had: I am proud of their appearance. The steadiness of the men was remarkable. They had the swing of regulars and the State can well feel proud of them. We are under great obligations to Gen- eral MacArthut and the officers of the regulars for the interest they have taken in these big maneuvers and we shall all look forward to a similar en- campment next year.” The appearance of the militia was also highly praised by the leading offi- cers of the regular army. -Colofiel E. A. Godwin, Ninth Cavalr; United States Army, said. “The ional Guard Cavalry is very creditable. It should be the policy of the State to foster and encourage it. They have made a great improvement during the time they have been here and they don't want to fali out of the line. They want to keep right to it. They all have profited by what they have seen. They should have encour- | agement and liberal treatment, as they | have shown a great disposition to learn. The men have all come from different sections of the State and have never before had an opportunity for squadron training or been assembled as a squadron. Captain Nance has had | charge of them. I must commend the | work of their officers, Captain Charles Jansen, Captain Sam W. Kay, Captain Charles J. Fuller and Captain J. D. Frederick.” Company E of the Second Infantry, Captain Charles A. Swicler, claims the iproud distinction of being the only | company that went out on .the big maneuver last Saturday and came back to camp with the same number of! men it started with. This is the same company that joined in the pursuit of the convicts that escaped from Folsomi Prison_ last year. Two of its number were killed by the convicts at the Grand Victory mine near Placerville. The Second Regiment, Colonel H. F.j Seymour commanding; the Sixth, Col- { onel R. K. Whitmore commanding, and; the Seyventh, Colénel 8. M. Finley, were' all in fine shape to-day and showed up’ in a €nappy style during the review. Al the officers of ‘the militia met to-; day in the assembly tent to discuss the affairs’ of the militia in general. A committee was appointed to draft suit- able resolutions on the death of Col-| onel N. S. Bangham. The committee | will also draw up resolutions of thanks to be tendered to General MacArthur. The subject of equipment and addi- tional pay from the State during the next encampment was fully discussed. It seemed to be the general opiniom that the State should be’asked to pay; $2 a day to enlisted men during the encampment. : Governor Pardee said that as com- mander in chief of the National Guard he would do all he could to assist the | organization in obtaining all that was required in the way of equipment and additional pay for the enlisted men. He was thoroughly in accord, he said, with their desires. Chief Quartermaster W. P.

A shrill.fire call from bugles in all parts of the cafp brought the troops to their feet this afternoon with great alacrity. A big blaze was seen about’a mile south of the camp of the provis- fonal regiment. Tt was located in the| midst of a magnificent growth of pine trees. About 2000 soldiers armed with buckets, sacks and ghovels went to the scene on a dead run and, after a hard | fight, succeeded in extinguishing the flames, which for a time promised to develop into a big conflagration. Some of the militlamen in emulation of troops in real warfare went on a foraging expedition a few days ago and rounded up some fine fat hogs, which they had served up in succulent style in camp. The owners of the hogs later appeared upon the scene and the sol- dicrs-had to pay $53 for their frolic, Agreement Enables Russia to Utilize Her Frontier Troops. LONDON, Aug. 26.—The St. Peters- burg correspondent of the Daily Tele- graph says he learns that the recently concluded Russo-German commercial treaty contains secret clauses of a po- litical nature, enabling Russia to draft all her troops in the western provinces to the seat of war, thus denuding the frontiers, in implicit reliance upon Emperor William's assurances of friendship. The ‘correspondent says also that large tariff concessions have been made to Russia at Emperor Willlam's sug- gestion, the nature of which, \when published, will grievously disappoint the German Agrarians. gl R SHARP OUTPOST COMBATS.

The dog was yellow and of low degree, with no particular breed, but mostly just dog, but his sympathy was almost human and all but spoken. As Raymond writhed in pain the dog lay in his master’s arms on the oper- ating table and licked his hand. Being small and refusing to be dislodged he was allowed to stzy and through the trying ordeal, whi the wound was washed and dressed and the bones set, the strange witness to a surgical-oper- ation remained at his p t.

As he was turn- | ing the corner at Fourteenth and Har- »n streets a peddler's wagon ran into him and the pointed end of the shaft struck Raymond just below the left knee. The blow broke both bones in the leg and made a hole almost as large as a dollar deep in the leg.
