IRELAND AND THE POPE.
An Interview with Cardinal Simconi.


The New Yo,k Herald has achieved an
other brilliant journalists feat IN virtually
interviewing the Pope in legardto the famous
Vatican Circular which has excited so much
inter, ST aud comment on both sides OF the
Atlantic Tie Utrdlds correspondent in
Rome has virtually interviewed the Pope,
beoause the st ,tcmcnls of Cardinal Smeoni,
the Pr feet If the Propaganda, by whose
authority tue "Circulqr" was issued, assume
To report the language Of the Pope and u in-
terpret his action. Such an interview may
he treated as being on It's face, las trustworthy
MS any possible statement OF the views of
the Pope, through an ordinary medium could
be.
The language of Cardinal Simeon is of the
utmost importance not only with reference
To this particular Irish crisis and time, but
on general principles. 1t makes clear and
vivid the attitude of that greatest of earthly
railing heads, the Papacy, toward all soits and
furms Of what we may term "social or polt-
ca agitation by dynamite"
| The UcrdM correspondent is evidently
most impressed by the desire of Cardinal
Sineon to deny any sort of Welding 10 the
amateur diplomatic efforts of the mystciiou,
Mr.. Errnrton, on the part Of the Pope, ms
regards the lattcr's position towards the sorI
OF Parncllism that iusties assassination ant
disorder. This, however, is Il matter %
slight Importance. The main fact is that th'
Pope has brOHehl the majc.ty and power o
Roman Catholic church TO bear against nj
sorts of violence and crime
/, The cardinal, 1t is notable, had the author

PANIC IN CHICAGO.
Failure Off Large Operator and Col
lapse Ofth Corner la Lard.


There was something like panic in Chi
cago Saturday, the cause being the failure of
McGeoch, Evcringham 4 Company, who
have for long time been looked upon as the
heaviest dealers in lard and other provisions
on the Chicago Board with liabilities ap-
proximating s 800, 900. Other failures were
soon announced, and the excitement was in-
tense. The effect was to be seen at once in
the quotations OF lard and July options, which
having on Friday run up to Sll.5ll
and closed steady ut Sll.55, sold
down to S10.G5 rs an initial drop
and kept on descending until 5000 was
reached, which would be equal in point of
comparison to drop of 40c. per bushel in
wheat. Grain appeared to feel the effect of
the drop in lard on the early market, and all
kinds were quoted rs easier, but not scnsibly
lower.
Peter McGeoch, the lead Of the firm, is a
resident of Milwaukee, and Is familiarity
styled 1.-THE Milwaukee Milkman." lie is
reputed to have been the leader in II number
of dairy bull movements on both the Mil
waukee and Chicago ma rkets. lie failed
two years ago. His firm came prominently
before the public two weeks ago by its re-
fusal to receive large quantity of lard from
Chicago on the ground that 1t was tainted,
over which disputed fact an invostiga-
ton of the board is now In progress. The
firm has since accepted the lard in question
under protest.
On the floor of the New York produce ex-
change Saturday there was an active time
and crowd of members IN attendance, es-
pecally for Saturday, but at no time was
there any excitement to indicate that, owing to
the Chicago failures, a panic was to be fear
ed. The dealings in lard were very heavy,
and fear was expressed that some failures
would be reported in the lard trade, but
otherwise the market was strong.

The Brooklyn bridge horror is repeated
but on larger and more CHASTITY scale at
Sunderland, England. Twelve hundred
children had assembled in the gallery of the
Victoria Hall, where conjurer was giving
his performance. The stairway to the gal
lery was only five or six feet wide and the
gallery door through which the children were
allowed to pass only one at time, was fitted
with bolt which lodged in hole in the
floor, thus narrowing the passageway for the
purpose of facilitating the ticket taking The
children leaving the hall hurried through this
door one child fell the rest were prccipi.
tated over him and nearly two hundred were
crushed to death. The story is horrible
one and we need no, dwell upon it. But the
worse than idiocy which blocked the narrow
passage by the boed door demands the SC

The latest Louisiana tragedy, which con-
sisted in the shooting by Reverend gentle
man of another who was not only Reverend

without II moments notice, and as he fell he
cried out, "My God, didn't do ir--allud-
