SEVEN PEOPLE BURNED UP.


A Whole Family Found Dead In the Ruin.
of a Barn-Fou1 Play Feared.
OMAHA, Neb., May 5.-Seven persons
were burned to death early yesterday
morning In barn on farm near Airing
ton, Neb. They are:
Mrs. Freeze, who was widow; Fred
Grotelnschen, her son-in-law; Mrs. Fred
Grotelnschen; three children Of Mr. and Mrs.
Grotelnschen; Louis Grotelnschen.
They all lived on the farm, and had no
nelghbors nearer than half mile. Smoke
was seen in Arlington, and party of cit
liens went out to investigate. Upon arriv-
ing at the farm they found the barn de-
stroyed, together with TWENTY-FIVE head of
stock. In the ruins, scattered among the
dead horses and cattle, were the remains of
the entire family.
NO one knows how it happened. Some
entertain suspicion of foul play, but ma
jority incline to the belief that the barn
took lire, perhaps through the act of
an incendiary, and that the family
rushed to rescue the live stock, and
while attempting to loosen them were suf-
located. The only survivor Of the family
is daughter, who is away visiting. The
body OF Mrs. Grotelnschen was crushed I'M
der the body of horse, and was the only
"oAi SooAu No 1OCO5u1L0O, tIlG OGuGrS
being terribly burned.
The dwelling was found to be in excel
lent order and the mornings work was
well under way. Every thing goes to
show that upon discovery of the fire
IN the barn rush was made to save
the lives of the animals and all were
caught and smothered. The three children
ranged in age from 1 to 6 years. It is sing
ular that these young children should also
have been caught in thelbarn. The youngest
one must have been carried there by the
mother in her excitement.
At the coroner's inquest no evidence was
produced to show foul play. The verdict
was that the fire was accidental Louis
Grotelnschen, who was employed as a la
borer on the farm and who also persisted,
was great smoker, and the fire NAV have
caught from sparks from his pipe. The
family is not known to have had an enemy.
The funeral is set for May7

DUBLIN, May 1.-Rev. Mr.. O,Reillv
presiding at meeting of electors at InchY.
core, Ireland, urged his hearers to take ma
notice OF the reports that were being circ,1.
lated concerning the Pope's decree
When Archbishop Walsh returned he
would make their conscience perfectly
easy. Messrs. Clancy, Redmond and Ken.
ny, members OF Parliament, also spoke. ad.
vlslng the people not to take action until
the text OF the decree has been published.
"A dispatch from Rome says that the
College of the Holly Office was charged to
examine Mgr. Persico's reports, and
whether Catholics belonging to the Ma
tlonal League were guilty of sin and de-
barred from absolution. The congrega-
tlon' the Pope presiding, replied in the
ainrmatlve, and drew up a decree to that
eHcct: Cardinal Simeone, acting under
the ropes orders, forwarded the decree
to Ireland, with special instructions
to Mgr. Persico' and the Irish Enisco-
pacy, when instructimg the clergy to on.
force it, to inform them that they must re-
fuse absolution to any one declining to re-
nounce membership in the National League.
1t is further stated that neither the
league nor its political claims are ex
plcltly condemned by the Holy Office,
which confines itself to declaring that the
methods employed are contrary to the re-
Iglous duties of Catholics. The pom
approved the decision, without in any wav
entering into political questions pending
between England and Ireland. Arch
bishop Walsh is still in Rome, in cnmpli-
ance with orders from the Vatican.
The Catholic Archbishops and Bishops
throughout Ireland are preparing pastoral
letters in reference to the Pope's pronun
clamiento. The pastors will recommend
obedience to the instructions of the
sovereign pontiff, but, entering into de-
tails as to the present conditions of
the country, will argue that the plan of
campaign was a necessity for the protec-
ZION OF tenant farmers, and therefore iusti-
liable However, believing that it has &C
complished the purpose for which it was
organized, the prelates will counsel the
people to abandon all attempts to continue
the plan Of campaign.
