The First Death occasioned by
Celebrating the Centennial.
The Cuban Dihaculties.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-The Tribune's
Washington special says: 1t seems
pretty certain that the recent circular
Of the State Department respecting
Cuban affairs did little more than call
the attention Of the European great
powers to the Spanish passage Of the
presidents message. 1t is also quite
certain that the European powers gen.
orally are Of the opinion that Spain
ought now to control or abandon
Cuba. The latest authentic informa-
tion is that the Spanish Government,
in its note to the European powers
comedies the justice Of the position Of
Gen. Grant, but requests that def.
mite period be fixed, within which
Spain can suppress the rebellion
Meanwhile the request is made that
the great powers do not consider any
suggestion from the United States
1t is probable that some time will YET
clapse before the president sends his
special message on the subject tc
congress.

tion.
LONDON, Jan. 3.-The Manchester
Guardians London correspondent
writes as follows on the subject OF
Spain, Cuba and the United States
81 have been furnished with what
purportsto be the substance of the
American Cuban note. Ibeliove tits
correct, though ! do not pretend to
give the exact language. It recites
that the general interests of humanity
and commerce demand cessation Of
the struggle which has been waged in
Cuba for seven years. The United
states are great sufferers,
but are unwilling to act
without the concurrence Of
other powers including Spain. The
continuation of the attempt to govern
Cuba from Madrid will be fatal to the
hopes OF restoration of peace; never.
theless, Cuba belongs to Spain, and a
great share of the population is op.
posed to separation. In these circum.
stances the solution of the question
might be found in establishing a con.
federation in the West Indies rcsem-.
bling the Canadian. Cuba and Porto
Rica might be constituted q confeder-
alton, with local independent right,
with governor general appointed BY
Spain. The powers are asked to Join
the United States in proposing such
. confederation and aiding Cuba to
establish it. The abolition Of slavery
would however be a necessary condi.
tion, and such pressure must be
brought as would make the ,insur-
gents cease warfare. This weuld be
difficult but in could be accomplished
Secretary Fish is emphatic in deny.
ing that the U. S. desires the acquisi.
ton Of CUBE. They only wish peace
restored, slavery abolished, and com
merce allowcdNto resume its course.
The powers are asked to express
their opinion upon the proposed
means Of accomplishing these ends.

Panic in a Church.

BosroN, Jan. 3.-While about one
thousand children were attending Sun
day school in the basement Of St.
Mary's Catholic church yesterday, the
drapery Of the statue of the Virgin
Mary took fire. Some Of the children
raised the cry of fire and panic
seizing them they rushed for the door
to escape. The teachers promptly
closed the doors and the burning
drapery having been torn from the
statue the fire was extinguished and
the children resumed their exercises.
Meanwhile the alarm FIRE in the base:
ment reached the congregation wor-
shipping above, and with one accord
the people rushed to the two narrow
doors which open into the porch
These were choked UP in an instant
as were also the narrow stairways
leading from the galleries. Many per.
sons in the galleries leaped from the
windows to the ground. Many wo.
men tainted, anil it was not until the
greater portion of the congregation
had escaped into the street that the
cause Of. the panic was ascertsinee
aud. nuiet restored. There was ne
loss Of life, but there we're severa
casulitics.

T!.jer and Credit Mobilier.

The Reformer, Tilden, is mixed
up with Credit Mobiller also. The
Chicago Iri6ne says che is the
man who devised the cunning eype-
dent of the Credit Mobilier fraud"
that "stole S37 100000, and
stole the capital stock of the COM
pany and corrupted q great many
people
This is a grave charge, but it
quotes the testimony taken before
the investigating committee. Judge
HOar asked Cakes Ames if he was
not informed by cousel that the con-
tract by which one company swal-
lowed another company twas a vio-
lation OF law" and Amcs replied
that they were informed that the
transaction was legal. Thereupon
he was asked "Who were the counsel
that gave that advice (" And he re-
piled "AIr. Samuel j. Tilden, Mr..
Charles Tracy and Judge Allen"
Mr.. John b. Alley, an associate of
Ames, also swore that they were in
structed by eminent counsel that the
Credit Mobilier operations were le-
gal, and on being asked if the opin-
ions Of these men were on file, Mr..
Alley replied that lie did not know
whether they were in writing or not,
but he said: "Mr Tilden, ] h11oec,
told me that he regarded it as a
compliance with law" Mr.. c. S.
Bushnell, also Credit Mobilier wit
moss, named Samuel j. Tilden as
one who gave them the advice re-
terred to.
Right here it may be well to re-
call the words of August Belmont,
a Democrat OF National reputation,
Who said just before TilJen was

s-ra::..;:y Q: Rsape-s ct tie Centennial.

Il appears from the Chicago Times
If the | 18th instant, that the McCor-
mick Reapers have achieved new
,,lories at the Centennial trial Of
Teapers. The following will explain
the triumph. The Times says:
..uccoRMICK'S REAPERs AT THE CEN
TESNIAL.
The past week at the Centennial
was fruitful of much that cannot
fail TO be Of more than ordinary in
tsrest to the agricultural commune
Ties of the land. The attractions
we're the trials of reapers at sta
ton Just out of Philadelphia, and
.be attendance consisted of hum
dreds of representative men idcnti-
fed with the farming interests not
only Of the United States, but of
every civilized nation on the face of
the globe. Under such circum-
stances none but those who felt as
snrel that merit was connected with
their reapers ventured to put in an
appearance. Chief among them was
CYRUS u. Mccormick, who has by
common consent been placed in the
ranks az the father of American ag-
ricultural machinery, Around him
we're representative from Brazil,
from the Argentine Republic, Japan,
ana the head of the agricultural
Judges, Mr.. Coleman, of the En-
rli,h commission. The test was
made iii the presence OF these and
a throng OF spectators, and as the
machines moved off none attracted
more attention on account of its
construction and its capacity and
quality Of work than the one which
lore the name of Mccormick. 1t
was a fitting reward to the inventor.
lie stood upon the plains which were
historic, surrounded by representa-
tives from all nations, to witness and
he a participant in the honors which
were bestowed upon him by reason
CT the triumph of his reapers."
