The Late Archbishop purcell's Debts.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Oct. 10-Archbishop
Elder has addressed a long letter to the
Catholic clergy and laity of the diocese of
Cincinnati on the subject of the late Arch
bishop Purcell's debts of about $4,oOO,OOO.
The Archbishop, after denying the report
that the pope had ordered him to pay off the
claims on the debt says: '.lf it were right
that churches and other institutions in the
diocese should be sold for those claims l
would not wait for any suit at law to sell
them all and begin again in rented halls, but
these churches, schools and aSylumS do not
belong to me. They were built or bought
with the money of the people to serve the
highest possible interests of themselves and
children and future generati tions for all time
to come, but the truth is that the debt is not
of the diocese or church, because money en-
trusted to Archbishop Purcell was not loaned
to him for religious purposes. The owners
brought it to him to take care of it when
they were afraid to trust it with banks and
merchants"
After explaining that Archbishop Purcell
was accustomed to loan money at per cent
interest without any security, and that he
lost enormous sums in this manner, the &d-
dress refers to the steps taken to relieve the
most destitute and concludes: After a good
deal of study and consideration we have
devised way by which to overcome the oh
stacle which has caused our delay. In our
diocesan synod which is to be held this
month / hope to complete arrangements for
carving it into effect. IW0uld not excite
the vain hope of obtaining an amount even
approaching to the sum of the claims but we
shall do what we can.
A large meeting of Archbishop PurcelPS
creditors was held this afternoon, and re-
ply prepared to the address of Archbishop
Elders statement that the debts were not
diocesan, but the personal debts of Rev. Ed
ward Purcell, and cites the sworn testimony
of Archbishop Purcell to show that Rev.
Edward Purcell attended to the financial
affairs By authority of the Archbishop.

Breaking Records.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Oct. 10.-Frank F.
Ives of Meriden, Conn.,, one of the Victor
bicycle team. made 1O0-mile ride ON Hamp-
den Park track today, to capture records.
He was paced throughout and rode mognif-
Gently till his second stop at 68 miles for
food After that he rode in poorer form till
he finished the 100 miles, doing it in hours,
5 minutes, 45 So seconds, which is 45 minutes
above the English worlds record of hours,
90 minutes, 90 So seconds, made by Frye in
1888 Ives. however, has IL, made new evan Amerl- III
that distance here just a year ago being
hours, 20 minu4es, 80 seconds. The day was
warm and without breeze. He began at
1922 a. III. and took rapid pace, doing 20
miles 500 yards inside an hour From 80 to
60 miles he smashed the records badly and
his new worlds records are likely to stand
for some time. Then he rested eight min
utes for food. He rode then to 68 miles
without resting again, making worlds
records. From thereon he stuck to his
machine but did not touch the records.

Ruined by Specializing.

CHICAGO, Oct. 9.-M. NJ. Neeld, of ]. c..
Ferguson q b., packers, has fled to Cana
da He issued bogus warehouse receipts FOR
$4,000 aud has ruined the firm speculating
The firm was composed of j. G. Ferguson,
E. ID. Ferguson and son, A Goodnow of Liv-
erpool Neeld, a son-in-law, and Mr.. How
ard, also son-in-law. The latter had his
headquarters at New York and from that
place managed the shipments. For that
reason some banking was done there. The
New York Corn Exchange Bank is the heav-
lest loser, being 100000 in the hole without
a dollar of security. Other losers known are
the First National of Chicago Bank of Mon
treal of Chicago, Metropolitan of Chicago,
Bank of Illinois of Chicago and the British
Bank of North America 1t now appears
that the firm had lately ceased operation in
killing hogs, and that storage receipts were
either fraudulently issued or else property
covered by them had been removed and con-
verted into money, which was either squan-
dered on the Board of Trade or carried
away. Neeld was a speculator on a large
scale. He was all the while in stocks, and
his losses there were heavy. He was a bull
on provisions during the last whirl, when it
was supposed that Armour was running a
corner, and must have been terrific
sufferer. There was nothing but amazement
on the Board of Trade and in bank circles
all day long. Losers of course are very retic-
ent. 1t is also said that some of the Boston
banks are involved.

MackereI.

The receipts of mackerel continue small
for the season, and all hopes Of an average
catch have been abandoned. 1t is barely
possible that the shore fleet win make some
good hauls before the season closes, but no
large bodies Of mackerel are seen on any
part OIL tne coast, and fishermen do not ex-
pect to do anything more than bring in few
small fares. A few vessels remain in the
North Bay and around the Cape Breton
shore, but at last accounts the weather was
unfavorable for fishing, owing to high winds
and the feet were detained in ports II is
not likely that much more will be done by
aamlerlcan allt seiners in that direction this year
Only ABOUT 1000 barrels of mackerel were
landed by the fleet the past week, and the
eaten TO date foots up only 6i, ,42O barrels as
complied by the American Fish Bureau and
6S,2S5 barrels. according to the statement Of
the Boston Fish Bureau. The lowest estl-
mate leaves deficiency of about 225, 900 bar
rels as compared with last year, and $4,000
barrels as compared with 1884.

A DOUBLE TRA.--~
An Actor Murders His Wife and tFer
Commits Suicide.


ST. LOUIS, Oct. 1o.-Shortly before the
performance was to begin this evening at
the Alhambra Theatre, a variety hall on St
Charles street, a terrible tragedy was
enacted behind the scenes. Josie Martell, a
rather pretty speciality woman, was stabbed
and instantly killed by Frank Hamburger,
who Immediately ended his own life. The
victims are said to have been husband and
wife, or at least to have occupied that rela-
tion to each other. The cause of the murder
and suicide is supposed to have been jeal-
ousy. During the afternoon Handmeyer,
who is a worthless fellow, quarreled with
the woman. This evening he called her
from her private dressing room, where she
was preparing for the nights performance,
into the general dressing room and was
heard to ask;
'Are you going to do that?"
To which she replied very decidedly, mo. "
Instantly Hamburger struck her with a
knife, the blade penetrating her heart, and
she sank to the floor dead without cry.
Then, without moving from his tracks, the
murderer plunged the weapon into his own
heart and fell dead beside his victim. Josie
Martell was about 80 years old.

ment of Republican postmaster in this city
senting the Democracy of the city and
county, terminated last night by the defeat
of Willis by Asher G. Carruth. The contest

which he lived, as well as the ward. Car
ruth's majority in the city will be 1900,

The Emperor of Austria Threatened.

LONDON, Oct. S.-The Chronicles cores
pondent at Paris says he has just heard from
Vienna the details of a startling Anarchist
plot to destroy Vierna and to assassinate
Emperor Francis Joseph. The conspirators,
ties, had intended to carry out the plot Octo-
Der A. Various timber stores were to be set
fire to throughout the city, and during the
confusion public buildings were to be blown
up with dynamite. The police seized inn
sives in different parts of the city, especially
near the imperial residence at Schonbrunn
and beneath the bridge leading to the palace
which the Emperor crosses daily. 1t was
also intended 10 make an attempt upon the
life of the Emperor. A large number of
foreigners and Austrians were arrested. The
ringleaders escaped to Germany. In .conse-
quence of the stringent aDti-socialist law,
news of the discovery of the plot did not
leak out for several days.
