ARCHBISHOP PURCELEs DEBTS.
They Will Not Be Paid BY the Pope, but Arch.
bishop Elder Gives Some Consolation.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 9-Archbishop Elder has
addressed long letter to the Cath
Ollie CLERGY and laity of the diocese of
Cincinnati the subject OF the
debts of the late Archbishop Purcell. who failed
for about four million dollars, some years ago,
owing most of that amount to poor people who
had intrusted their savings to him. The Arch
bishop, after reproving journalists for giving
circulation TO report that the Pope had ordered
him to pay off claims on the debts, say:
If it right that the churches and other relig-
ious institutions in the diocese should be sold for
these claims would not wait fer any suit at law to
sell them all and begin again in rented halls. But
these churches schools and asylums do not belong
me. They built or bought with the money of the
people. to the highest possible interests of
themselves and children and future generations for
all time to But the truth is that the debt is
not of the diocese or church. because the money in
for religious purposes The owners brought it to
him to take of it when they 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 an enor-
nous sum in this manner the address refers to
steps taken to relieve the most destitute, and
concludes:
After good deal of study and consideration, be-
leve have devised a way by which to overcome the
obstacle which has caused delay. 1t is not yet
sufficiently matured for me to say about it now.
In diocesan synod which is to be held this
month. / hope to complete the arrangements for
CARRYING it into effect would not excite vain hopes
of obtaining amount even approaching to the sum
of the claims. But little do. and we
shall earnestly endeavor TO make that little great
possible.

THE OVERDUE ANCHORIA.
Growing Anxiety Among the Relatives and
Friends Of the Five Hundred Passengers.

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The steamer Anchoria
has not yet been heard from, and the number
Of callers at the office of the company is daily
increasing The officials still hold to their
original theory that the vessel has broken her
shaft, and that the canvas which she carries is
not sufficient for her to keep her course. She
was in good condition when she left Scot
land. they say. or she would not have been al
lowed to sail, as by the English law q govern
ment survey has to be made of every ship before
she leaves her dock on every occasion.
The New York Mail and Express SAYS: can
other dreary day has passed for those who have
relatives and friends on the overdue Anchor
line steamer Anchoria. That vessel failed to put
in an appearance, and no news of her ar
rival at another port or of her having
been sighted at sea has been received.
Even the more conservative steamship men of
the Maritime Exchange, VINO always hope for
the best. are now forced to the belief that the
ship has been lost, and that another ocean
horror has to be added to the long list
The agents of the vessel, Messrs. Henderson
Bros, still continue to affirm that they are not
in the least alarmed. In reality. however they
are greatly worried, as is evident from the many
private conferences held daily"
Glasgow telegram says: "The anxiety con-
corning the overdue steamer Anchoria Is in
creasing in Scotland owing to the fact that sew
eral well-known Glasgow gentlemen are among
the passengers. Experienced Atlantic captains
believe the steamers delay is caused by dsar-
rangement of her gear, and that she is proceed
ing slowly under sail It is understood that a
premium of ten guineas for insurance on the
steamer has been taken"

and by hundreds OF men without dinner nails
and attred in their Sunday clothes. who by this
time had assembled in force in the yards and
observed the proceedings at the various packing
houses.
This morning it was rumored throughout the
yards that the packers had appointed q commit

was asserted that tho packers had heen making
