An Insult to Cathollce. ..---

I
RicHMosp, Va, August %. = Right
Rev. Bishop John ]. Keane, Of the Diocese
Of Richmond, recently wrote q letter tc
Hon. A. NJ. Kelley in relation towhat he
terms the "shameinl persecution" that
gentleman is suffering. The letter is
written from st. Paul, Mimi, the bishop
being at present in the far West, conduct
ing a series Of spiritual retreats for the
clergy. The bishop says:
~ allude to the treatment inflicted on
you "a an insult not only 70 one OF the
most highly and deseryedly esteemed
Catholics OF the Diocese OF Richmond, and
one OF the most honored citizens OF Viz
gtnia, but, through him, to all his fellow
Catholics and fellow.citizsns in this conn
try, aud to the holy Father himself But
in this insult to you can see no hunilia-
ton, save to those who have offered 1t. 1t
was an honor to be unweleome by a gov
ernment whose whole course has been
marked by iojustics and irreligion, and
the government of Austria having by its
recent act made itself the asettor OF the
guilt and partner in the shame, has there
made itself incapable OF hu.
initiating you. While have regretted
the attacks made upon you by part OF the
daily press, still, that need not concsEn-ns
much, as nothing better wss 70 be expect:
cd from such partisan and interested
sources. But / have especially deplored
criticisms passed upon you by some Cath
olic scribblers, who, In their zeal TO ap-
near clever and ultra. orthodox, have over
looked the fact that the cause for which
you were suffering was the retutatton, as
well as tho condemnation and shame, OF
their structures. But It Is comfort to
know that the utterances Of these wholly
unauthorized critics have no weight
beyond the infiuitesimal weight Of
Of the individuals themselves.
am confident that all Catholics whose
opinion you would esteem, honor you for
the persecution you have suffered for
truth and justice sake. Your position is,
indeed, an embarrassing one, with tami-
ly to provide for and your. business trans
ierred to othera; butsurelv it cannot be
that our government, whose weil-meant
action has placed you in the embarrass-
ment, will leave you in 1t, or fail 70 pro-
vide that you be in no way loser by II,
and even should that happen, which l
cannot believe, still, 1 am confident that
your well-known qualities Of head and
heart will yet secure to you career both
ot honor and profit"

MADR1p, August 22.-There were Lass
new cases Of cholera and l,44l deaths
from the disease reported throughout
Spain yesterday. The returns from the
populous province Of Navarro, however,
are still incomplete. King Alfonso has
donated 5000 to the Granada cholera
fund. Money was badly needed at that
place. The condition Of Granada re-
mains piiable. Hundreds Of people are
attacked by cholera in single streets near.
" every day. There are no doctors and
no authorities to look after the victims,
who often pass through their agonies In
the streets and expire, unattended, in the
cutters. Most Of the unaffected popula:
ton have fed, and the few healthy citi.
zens who remain are disheaftened and
apathetic. Corpses remain uncoftined and
unidentified. The very misery wrought
by the plague has become Q nuisance, and
the Government has resorted to the des-
perate expedient Of compelling the sol
diers and conyicts TO carry on the work oi
removing from the public ways and In
terrine the bodies OF the unknown dead.

Indications That many Human Beiess Might
sutyl,s Such oper .tiaus as Dogs Do.
NIw YoRK, August 22.-The anti-yiyi-
sectionists ofthis city are emotional over
the dolngs with dogs by some Of the pro.
lessons of surgery, Of Bellevue Hospital.
Heny Bergh, the defender Of beasts, is the
leader Of those New Workers who protest
against the mutilation of brufes for the
sake Of experiments. He has long sought
TO get an enactment by the Legislature
forbsdding vivisection, and last winter, by
means OF q bill ostensibly for another pur.
pose, he all but succeeded. =
/ Now there Ia O disclosure OF the fact that
q large number Of dogs have lately been
and are still being cut up in series. OF
trials intended 10 demonstrate the feasi-
bntty Of certain operations upon human
beings. Nearly allof the persons shot or
stabbed in this city are taken to Bellevue.
In cases wherein the abdomen Is perioras
ted death usually results from peritonitis,
or Inflammation OF the membrane which
lines the abdominal cavity. In various
diseases, too, .peritonitis Is the fatal eli
max. Surgeon T. Herring Burchard, chief
operator in tho emergency ward of this
hospital and lecturer in the clinics OF Belle
yue Medical College, has held a theory that
the mortality from this cause Is need
lessIy high, and that many lives might be
saved by the bold surgery of cutting open
the body, removing the irritant matter, or
even excising gangreneous portions ofthe
bowels, and then trusting to antiseptic
treatment for q recovery. He urged that,
whenever the dreaded Inflammation be-
came established 10 an extent rendering
death nearly certain II nothing were done,
then the. knife ought alwaysto be piled.
This was q new and rather startling view,
even In these days Of bold surgery. II
was decided to experiment extensively
with dogs. These could be obtained in
any desired number from the public
pound.
The work was begun last spring and
has proceeded steadily ever since. Over
0 hundred dogs have already been used
by DIR. Herring and others interested in
the subject. They have suffered the lay
ing open OF their abdomens and the re.
moyal Of sections Of intestine TO see II
they would recover. Ina fair number OF
instances they have done so. The prac-
tice 10 defended on the ground that,
could the operation be found practicable
In human beings, great number of lives
could be saved by it Especially would
that be true in wars. But the Bergh
people are intensely grieyed.

LONDON, August 22.-General Lort
wolseley, having been askedabout Roche
forts story that Olivier Pain had a price
pat on his head blythe BriHsh in the Sou

piled that no reward was ever offered by
the British for Pain, and that no British
officer In the soudan would have given
five shillfngs for PAINS head, on or oF his
shoulders.
II. Rochefort, editor Of the IDtransigeaat,
Of Paris, was interviewed to-day in rela-
ton to the recent articles in his paper de-
manding vengeance on the English for the
alleged murder Of Olivier Pain. n. Roche
fort denied that he desires the lynching Of
the Prince OF Wales or Lord Lyons. N.
Rocheforts friends say the articles against
the Prince OF Wales were written while
NJ. Rochefort was laboring under great
excitement, due to heavy losses on the

his Losses to foul play on the part Of Eng
