Awom.n the cause ofthe Jesuit Apo.ta.y.


A dispatch from st. Louis says: The
lpostasy of Father ~Theophilus Van de Moortel,
the Chicago Jesuit, is the talk Of Catholic
circles here at present, and the interest in 1t
was greatly intensified by an interview with
Father Higgins, Provincial at the college where
Father Moortel was a professor for a long time.
Father Higgins speaks very highly of the ability
of Father Moortel, and is careful to say nothing
against his character. He says that this is only
a parallel case to that of Father Pierre Hy-
acinthe, which created such q sensation in the old
world several years ago. He claims to have IN
formation that in putting forward an objection
to the infallibility dogma as an explanation of
his apostasy, Father Moortel is only Sinking
the real explanation, which is one of lust. He
feels quite confident that the reverend sensa-
tionalist has become infatuated with some
woman, and that is the long and short Of it.
He says that this infallibity dogma is always
putforward by apostates, and that Father Moor
tells talk of returning to old Catholicity is sim
ply bosh.

Chas. Ballet, a loW-minded and Jealous man
residing at Middletown, Ohio, has just been the
actor in terrible domestic tragedy. Jealousy
was the cause. During their lives, three times
did he and his wife separate, and as often reunite.
They had separated for the fourth time, but
failing to rid herself of his loathsome presence,
his wife began legal proceedings. This SO en-
ragged him that, calling upon her, he said,
"-- you, III kill you, and drawing two
large revolvers, began firing. Three balls took
effect, but she ran from his presence into tho
yard, thence into a lane, and fell. Thinking
he had done his work well, he sat down by the
fence and fired two shots into his abdomen,
one into the back Of his head and two in his
mouth. He did his work well, and saved him
self from being lynched. His entire married
life was said to have been one of brutality,

most similar to the last one tried. He is
charged with issuing q fictitious voucher
for services rendered by John FURY as
herder at Crow Creek and obtaining more
money upon the voucher than the ser.
vices of FURY called for. FURY is the
principal witness for the prosecution. The
transaction is alleged to have occurred in
1873 and DR.. Livingston's counsel could
secure the dismissal of the action under the
statute of Limitation. But they did not
seem disposed to take advantage of this
privilege and the case has gone to trial.
In consequence Of the extent of business
in United States cases, which have the
preference, Judge Shannon has ordered
that the territorial petit jury summoned to
attend on the 24th inst, be notified that
their attendance will not be required until
notified by the court.
