as much needed as spirituality; to its pros

Money and spirituality is that which the laity
need to sustain the church, and that which
helps the pastor to be successful minister.

SMELLING ARRESTED.
The Treasurer of the Lowell Bleachery
Charged With EmbeZzlement- - He
Spends the Night in a Boston Police
Station.
BOsToN. Aug. 10.

BosToN, Aug. 10.
The excitement in business circles caused
by the defalcation and suicide of VIM. Grav,
Jr., and the assignment of S. X. Payson,
was further increased Thursday morning, by
the arrest of Samuel G.. Smelling, treasurer
OF the Lowell Bleachery Co., charged with
apropriating to his own use large proportion
of the funds of the concern. The story of
Snelllng's irregularities and subsequent res
ignation already has been published. Smell
ling was not arrested at the time of the dis
covery, the directors preferring to have him
first in Iicted by the grand jury. While these
arrangements were being made it is said by
detectives, Snellings went to the Merchants
National Bank where the funds of the bleach
cry are deposited and drew out $40,0 900 of
these funds and deposited that amount the
same day to his own credit in the Maverick
Bank. Upon this becoming known war
rant charging Smelling with the embezzle-
ment of this amount was sworn out in the
municipal court, placed in the hands of the
officers and his arrest accomplished at his
house late Wednesday night. He remained
in cell of the police station all night, but
Thursday morning was released on $4,000
security.
The Globe will say tomorrow that the
shortage of the late treasurer Samuel G..
Smelling will reach about $l9S,000.

west Belfast, said the government would re-
quire notice before stating whether or not
they intended to withdraw the extra police
from Belfast. He would saw the government
intended TO increase the number of commits
sioners app tinted TO inquire into the Belfast
riots, and also intended to extend the scope
OF inquiry to be made bv the commissioners.
Inc government had no present intention,
however, added Sir Michael, to appoint
ro.a commission to investigate the disorders,
although they would consider the advisability
OF enabling the commission TO take testimony
under oath.
J. o'Kvllv, (Psrnellite). member for
North Roscommon. gave notice of his inten-
ton to Introduce bill for the better govern
ment OF Belfast, and of another to suspend
evictions in certain cases.
MIR. Psrnell took the oath of office and his
seat for Cork c ty. MIR. Gladstone said he
thought the conduct of the irish policy should
remain IN the hands of the government and
under their primary responsibility. Confirming,
he said that If il was supposed that anything
that had happened had produced the slightest
change IN his convictions regarding the late
governments Irish policy, he was afraid he
was unable to atfore the slightest encourage
ment on that point. (Cheers). What had
happened, he continued, had rather confirmed
main principles of his scheme
Mr. Gladstone said he thought the late on
position had dealt hsrshly with the late gov
ernment IN pressing them for their Irish pol
Icy but he would not retsliate. Ireland, he
said Ia the question of the day, and the
sooner this question is settled the sooner will
the House be able to dispose of the areas of
legislation before il.
Lord Randolph Churchill upon rising said
he hope the statements he was about to make
would satisfy the House After taunting
Gladstone on the readiness TO resort TO coer.
clon which he said the ex-premier had in
former times displayed, he stated that the
government had come TO the conclusion that
an adoption of coercion measures for ireland
would be unwise. Continuing. he said the
ministry wished the question OF local govern
ment to be treated as question affecting the
United Kingdom. In regard to the Belfast
government he would take care that crime
should not become chronic there as was the
case IN some parts of ireland, nor would the
government tolerate any attack on the royal
Irish constabulancv whose services were de.
serving of praise. The ministers were de
dermined TO restore order in Belfast and
would shrink from no responsibility in order
to attain that e d without DELAY With ref
erence to Kerry ne said the ministry had re-
solved to send there a special military officer
of high rank invested with such powers az
would enable him to restore order The
moment the government became conscious
that further powers were necessary, they
would summon Parliament to their assis-
tsnce.

Lord Randolph Churchill, speaking for the

Lord Churchill thereupon suggested that
the House allow the order complained of to
be renewed and that the House appoint

the whole matter.
Mr.. Gladstone spoke in apparent approval

that he would support the government on it.

GRAY'S MISDEEDS.
The Method of His Defalcations and the
Way They Were Discovered.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass Aug. 10.
The Springfield Republican has from an
authentic source the following account of
the method of Gray's defalcatons and the
way they were discovered. The directors of
the Atlantic and Indian Orchard mills, like
those of other mills, employed an expert to
examine the accounts every six months. He
certified to their correctness and it was not
until Friday last when in conversation with
him two of the directors were informed by
this worthy that he understood his duty to be
not to examine the treasurers accounts but
to see if those employed by the treasurer
were honest. The directors were astound-
ed at such an Interpretation Of that officials
duty and told him he was to examine the ac-
counts of all the officers from the highest to
the lowest. They questioned him closely
and TO their astonishment he finally told them
of the detaication of Treasurer Gray, which
extended over series of years to which he,
and it is understood, clerks of the corpora
tions were known.

Dean Bound Over.

The examination of witnesses in the
case of Joseph II. Dean was resumed this
afternoon before Commissioner Mckay,
but no testimony OF damaging character
was brought out. Nathan Eldredge, of
Ogden, had been subpnnaed among other
Witnesses, but knew very little in regard
to Mr.. Deans family relations.
At the close OF the testimony District
Attorney Dickson asked for continuance
till Friday morning, stating that several
important witnesses had mysteriously
disappeared. Mr.. James II. Moyle,
Deans attorney, objected to any further
continuance on the grounds that no evil
dence whatever of the defendants guilt
had been established.
Commissioner Mckay thought differ
emily, and ordered that Dean give bonds
OF $4,000, and that the case go before the
Grand Jury tomorrow. The more i'm
portant witnesses were required to give
bonds OF 5000 each, and the rest of them
were excused.
Mr.. Mckay, in submitting his judg-
ment, stated that it was not necessary in
his court TO produce sufficient evidence to
convict a man, but simply enough to
warrant his being sent up to the Grand
Jury for an investigation.
