FREIGHTS TO RUtl 00 GRAND TRUUK Five Were Operated Today and More Will De Sent Out Saturday. STRIKERS VERY ORDERLY

ARBITRATION HAS BEEN PROPOSED BY THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT, BUT OFFER WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. (American Nws Sarrlca) Toronto, July 12. Grand Trunk offlclala snnouncs today that a general

amount of freight will be handled to

morrow. Two freight left Portland today, two departed from Montreal and one from Ottawa. Report from various division headquarters of the Grand Trunk system Indicate the passenger service is nearly normal, with a few exceptions. Extensive police protection has been requested for tomorrow all along the lines of the system. No violin ce of consequence has occurred anywhere. The strikers are apparently confident as ever of a victory. The arbitration proposed by the Canadian government through . W. I MacKensle King, minister of labor, appears to have small chance of success. The government stipulated that the decision should be binding. Vice President Murdock, who tent the reply for the trainmen, says that he does not think there is anything to be gained by discussing arbitration since such . a proposal has already come from the strikers and been spurned by the Grand Trunk. The railroads answer was sent to Montreal.

I10TED PRIEST DEAD

American Divine Dies in Mexi

co After Winning Name for Himself. HE WAS A GREAT SCHOLAR

(American News Service) , San Antonio, Texas, July 22. According to a special received here, Father Augustln Hunt-Cortes, one of the best known men In Mexico, is dead at the City of Mexico. Father Hunt-Cortes was an American and universally esteemed on the other side of the Rio Grande. He was born at New Orleans In 1840. and at the age

of 23 was appointed by President

Lincoln to a position in the federal

service, serving ultimately as official

translator of all Spanish correspondence reaching the state department. In this work he became acquainted with President Benito Juares and Pedro Santacllia, his secretary. In 18G6 Mr. Hunt-Cortes left the federal service and returned to New Orleans, where he met some of the attaches of the court ot Maximilian I, emperor of

Mexico, this leading to his migration to Mexico and employment In the war department there under General Thomas Murfy. In the ensuing disturbances Mr. Hunt-Cortes was taken prisoner of war at Mexicaltzlngo. but was released the following year. A little later he was appointed to the chair of Habuatl at the Pontifical uni

versity. City of Mexico, and In 1884 he founded at Texcoco an academy for the preservation and propagation of the ancient languages of Mexico, his work in this direction attracting the attention of the entire world. It was not until 1892 that Hunt-Cortes went Into the Catholic church. He was baptized In the parish church of TaCuba, a place he selected because it had been built out of the ruins of the palace of Tetlepanquetzalzin, the late Aztoc lord of Tlacopan. Four years later he founded in Mexico what is known today as the Father Hunt-Cortes Working Boys' Home, the first institution of its' kind in the republic. Father Hunt-Cortes was of Irish-Spanish descent, a keen Investigator, great scholar and a man of broad sympathies. It Is claimed that he was familiar equally with English, French, Spanish and the Nahuatl languages.

GRAND LODGE WILL BE IN SES- , 8ION IN THE CREAM CITY, AUGUST 1 AND MANY KNIGHTS ARE TO ATTEND.

(American Xewi Service) Milwaukee, Wis., July 22. Two cities have already announced their Intention to bid for the next convention of the supreme lodge Knights of Pythias and the encampment of the Uniform Rank, to be held In 1912. The candidates are Fort Worth, Tex., and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Both of

these cities have the sanction of their respective grand lodges and it Is likely that the next gathering of Knights will be held In the south.

Milwaukee Is In readiness to receive the visitors who are expected to begin pouring Into the city several days before the opening . of the biennial convention and encampment August 1. . The camp where several thousand uniformed Knights will be encamped will be ready to receive them on Saturday preceding the convention. One of Features. One of the features of ' the week aside from the parades of uniformed knights and of subordinate lodges will be an aquatic meet in whlrh boat clubs of Chicago and MilwauKee will participate. The committee in charge of arrangements has decided to give prizes for these events which will be held on the upper river. Dally excursions will be run to Milwaukee from Chicago and other near by points, and it is believed that there will be between 75,000 and 100,000 strangers In the city during the week. A request has been made upon private citizens to open their homes during the week to take care of the visitors. ' Low rates have been granted by all the railroads from every part of th3 country for this gathering and among the visitors will be thousands who do not belong to the order who will take advantage of cheap fares to visit Milwaukee. .

APPROPRIATION WAS MADE Washington, July 22. The old

cnarge uh me uniiea biates aoes noit

wish to raise the battleship Maine, now resting in Havana harbor, lest it might be shown that she was blown up from the interior and not by a Spanish mine, is being revived by reason of the announcement made by the war department that the work can not be begun until there is a ruling on the recent congressional act by the attor

ney general. Congress at its last session passed an act fathered by Representative Suiter ot New York, authorizing the war department to contract for the raising of the wreck, and appropriating

$100,000 for the purpose. The measure was approved May 9. Subsequently the secretary of war, acting upon information from the chief of engineers reported that the work could not be done for that amount and an additional sum of $200,000 was included in the urgent deficiency bill to carry out the act of May 10, 1910. Although it was clearly the intent of

the language of the appropriation to

refer to the act to raise the Maine, the war department has seized upon this difference in dates as an excuse for refusing to take any further steps until the attorney general passes upon the matter. Mr. Wickersham is now on his way to Alaska and will not be back for several weeks. It Is probable that this course will delay the raising of the battle ship, if It is ever raised, for a year. Another minor technicality has also been found in the law which directs that the war department shall provide for the raising of the wreck to the surface, although Admiral Sigsbee, who was in command of the vessel at the time of the disaster and the naval board of inquiry are agreed that the destruction resulted from an exterior cause.

woman aviators in the world, announc

ed today that she will complete in the tii aeroplane race between New York

and Chicago.

She made this announcement today

when she arrived from Paris to undertake a flight in a Farman biplane

"I hope that my entry will be ac

cepted," said Mme. Francke, who in

private- life is Mrs. Frank Hewartson

"1 am confident that I could cover the

distance, especially in view of the

conditions providing several days for the completion of the race. That $23.000 prize is one I would like to win." Contrary Winds. Contrary winds prevented her from

starting this morning on the crosschannel flight, but she said that a start would be made as. soon as possible. Her machine was carefully gone over and she made a short land flight, without attempting anything spectacular. Many private yachts as well as French and British torpedo boats were lined across the channel between here and Dover today awaiting the signal

that Mme. Francke had started. Elaborate plans had been made to Insure her safety, though she had made no request that this be done. "I " think I will get across safely, even if I am the first woman to attempt it," she said. Henri Farman, who has been her adviser in her aviation work Is here lending her all the assistance possible.

Cheap Lodging. "One day. said a Parisian. I arrived with my wife at an inn in the lower Pyrenees. It was during an electoral campaign. The place pleased me. Two days passed. At the moment of departure I asked for my account The innkeeper responded: ' M 'You owe me nothing. The Count de Y., who is the candidate, has paid everything in this district for fifteen days.' "So I remained at that Inn fifteen days without paying a sou." Cri de Paris.
