NEUTRAL STAND ns POPE BENEDICT XV Archbishop Prendergast of Philadelphia Addresses Letter to Catholics Here. PHILADLPHIA, Sept. 4. Arch, bishop Edmund F. Prendergast has issued th.

following letter to rectors of the Roman Catholic churches in the archdiocese of Philadelphia and has directed that the letter be read at all masses celebrated next Sunday: Arohbishop's House. Philadelphia. September 3, 1914. With profound gratitude to god. we announce to you the glad news Just received from Rome that a successor to the late beloved Pope, Pius the Tenth, has been elected in the person of His Kminence, James Cardinal Delia Chiesa, Archbishop' of Bologna.

The choice of this supreme pontiff is in so many ways like the elevation of his lamented predecessor that all the faithful children of the Church have a convincing and striking proof that the Holv Ghost is guiding the Church in these critical times. But whilst, with the confidence which faith gives us in the abiding presence of God, we know that the new pope, who has chosen the name of Benedict XV, will be enlightened and strengthened from above to safely guide the Bark of Peter In the world wide tempest which is now raging, still our hearts must go out in sympathy to the one who has to bear the burdens, and we feel that it is the duty of every devoted child of his throughout the world to help him. to hold up his hands and strengthen him In every way possible to us. and particularly by earnest prayer. We beseech Almighty God that he may do not only all that is best for the interests of religion, but that he also may be a power for the restoration of peace amongst the nations, that as the motto of his beloved predecessor was "to restore all things in eo may it be his lot in the providence of God to bring back the reign of the Prince of Peace to the rulers and people, who are now engaged in this deplorable strife.

In our churches and In our homes we should constantly and fervantly pray for our Holy Father, Benedict XV, and we direct you. Rev. Father, to add the prayer, "Pro Papa" in the mass according to the Rubrics, and after every mass recite the prayer in the vernacular. God, the Pastor and Rector of all the faithful, look down In thy mercv upon thy servant, Benedict whom thou hast appointed to preside over thy Church, and grant, we beseech Thee, that both by word and example he may edify all those who are under his charge, so that with the flock entrusted to him he may arrive at length unto life everlasting. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, etc.

Amen." Faithfully, yours in Christ, EDMUND F. PRENDERGAST. Archbishop of Philadelphia. CHARLES F. KAVANAGH, Chancellor.

The tlrst "war scare" of the present occupation of Butte by state militia came today, when a riot call was turned in by sentries at the Mountain View mine. Miners on the way to work were mistaken for men trying to dynamite the mine buildings and 800 soldiers encamped at the court bouse were called out.

Eight machine guns were at once put in readiness for action. When it developed that the supposed dynamiters were harmless miners the soldiers were released from duty. Outside of this flurry there was no excitement. The search for Muckle" MacDonald, president of the Butt Mine Workers' union, continued, but he has not been located. Arrests of miners alleged to be responsible for the recent troubles continue.

Major D. Donahue declares his troops have 300,000 rounds of ammunition, and will be able to defeat 6,000 miners should it be necessary. WASHINGTON. D. Sept.
