TALK COMPROMISE III PAPAL ELECTION Cardinals Take Two Ballots

Without Reaching Choice! to Succeed Pius X. 1 BY LEASED WIRE. ROME, Sept. 2. Two ballots have been taken for a successor to Pope Plus X, without any selection being made. On the first ballot the votes were scattered. On the second, Cardinal Peter Marti, archbishop of Pisa, led with thirty votes, while Cardinal iFerrata, secretary of the College of the Holy Office, received eighteen, and th other nine went to various canjdates. As there were fifty-seven In the conclave, and as a two-thirds majority Is necessary to elect, all the candidates fell short of the necesary thirtyeight. On account of the rivalry between Cardinal Maffi and Cardinal Ferrata, It may be necessary to elect a compromise candidate, and if such is the case it Is declared Cardinal Diomede Falconl, a naturalized American citizen, and farmer apostolic delegate to the United States, may be chosen. Among the fugitives who came into Boulogne, was a French woman of good family. She had two babies in her arms. She was ready to drop from fatigue. Her clothing was torn and her face strained with tears. 'I tried to get to Paris," she said. I felt I would be safe there. How long I have been trying 1 do not know, for time does not count in these dreadful days. They told me I might get through from Abbeville. I -IrleO, but failed. I .had no money wd no food. Borne soldiers taking pfty upon us, pave us food. It was stale and coarse, but I never tasted anything so good." WATER CARNIVAL BRINGS HIGH DIVER The Rice & Dore company has gathered for its show a marvelous aggregation of aquatic performers. There is Joe Florey, the high diver, whom no height has ever frightened; there is Charles Sodenberg, champion diver of Sweden and more at home in the water than on land; there is Captain Harvey, who dives off the high ladder with his clothing completely enveloped in flames. Captain Harvey is one of the few men in the world fortunate enough to be sure of his job as long as he wants it. In fact, none of the high divers with the show have much competition nor find many men trying to scab on their jobs. Artistic Acrobats. Then there is Charles Bishop, acrobatic trapez performer who does stunts in air ana water, well backed up by several other divers, both men and women. The talent of the gentler sex is ably headed by Miss Inez Fanjoy, well entitled to the honor of being champion woman diver of the world. With her works Adelaide D'Young who dives backward, Kitten Blanchard who does a high dive and a score - more other young women equally skilled. AS FLARES UP BURNING MRS. STRATE When she waited too long to light the gas after opening the burner, Mrs. James Strate, 519 North Nineteenth Hreet, was badly burned about the face today. Mrs. Strate turned on the gas but neglected to light the match until a quantity of the explosive had been admitted into the room. When she scratched the match a tongue of flame leaped into her face, burning the skin, eyebrows and hair. The burns are not serious. How the

This howitzer type of field gun has proved its deadly effect in explosive shell th rowing for the Austrians, but in reports of numerous captures by Servian and Russian troops lend doubts of its mobility. The French-trained gunners of Servia have silenced numerous such batteries also by more accurate fire and the guns have fallen into the hands of the enemy.

A refugee from the front describes the scenes as follows: "The sound of battle seemed never to die out. By day columns of smoke arose from battlefields and burned j towns. By night the red glare of burning forests and of artillery bombardment shines against the sky. Amiens is almost emotv of its civilian dodulation. Soldiers guard the streets to : prevent the town from being pillaged. "The fighting between St. Quentin and La Fere opened Saturday morning. The Krupps of the German invaders, dragged forward by straining. battle formation of the allies, and im-' mediately the might ordinance of the growling in reply. "There was a lull on Saturday night. while the artillery men slept on the ground behind the batteries. Early Sunday morning the guns were again : munaenng. soon rue forest was a roaring conflagration, and the fugitives were again in flight.

ADMITS TOOL THEFT THEN DENIES COUIIT

Hubert Burton, cement worker and father of six children, waa today sentenced to sixty days in the coutyv jail and fined $10 and costs on s charge which he swears ha la Innocent of. Burton pleaded guilty to stealing $27 worth of tools from WUr Ham A. .Gaines, colored. The prisoner declared after court that he pleaded guilty with the hope that leniency would De snown nun ana n the belief that he would be convict because he did not know how to prove himself innocent. He says he had the tools but that he purchased them from a stranger wno said he was selling them to pay for a "flop" or place to sleep. Burton offered to replace the tools with new ones if he could not gather up the old ones, a number of which he has sold. He had no money and said his wife and six children will go to the Home for Friendless Women while he serves the sixty day sentence and the additional fifteen days for default in paying his fine. Prosecuting Attorney Reller says complaints have been made against Burton before. Burton denies any of the previous cnarges. iie was cnargeo today with stealing part of a kit consisting of a screw jack, two long levels, two trowels, two, picks, a sack coat, an .edger, a V trowel, a pair of rubber boots and a brace and bit. DECLARES MARTIAL LAW III JJTTE MINE BUTTE, Mont., Sept. 2. Martial law prevailed here today following the arrival or ten companies oi oiaie -ahlM. rtVf.riokin h linlul hill lh niMhnr. ities feared this was only the lull before the storm, and took every precaution to prevent any outbreak. The troops were in charge of Major D. J. Donohue, who made public immediately after his arrival a proclamation signed by Governor Stewart placing Butee ond Siiverbow county under martial law. Officials of the Anaconda company said that an attempt would be made today to resume work at the Anaconda and original mines. The ten companies marched into the city this morning and took possession of the court house and county jail, mounting gatling guns at the front and rear entrances. Maxim guns overlook the streets from the upper floors of the court house and jail. The guarding of the jail is believed to indicate that the troops soon will plac "Muckie" Macdonald and the other officers of tbe insurgent miners under arrest on charges of kidnaping in connection with the deportation of miners. Macdonald last night addressed about eipht thousand miners in the streets, and announced that he would "shoot the first man to serve a warrant on him." The Anaconda and original mines of the Anaconda company resumed operations this morning. The streets of the city weer packed with people at noon, but there was no semblance of any disorder.
