It is stated in well-informrd quar-
ters that the decision of til" Oo"grpga-
lion of the Holy Office in regard to
the Plan Of Campaign and b~oycotting,
AMI Cardinal Monaco's circular to the
Irish bishops, are to be considered
as preliminary steps.
A special Congregation Of the
Propaganda, comprised exclusively of
cardinals, is now * mining, by order
ut the Pope, several questions sub
mitted to them relative to the agita-
lion in Ireland, to which their
Eminences VIII reply by Il formal
ore. Cardinal Sime"ni has nIreNdy
formulated ut least ten points for
consideration.
The Vatican appears resolved to
treat the question in snch Il manner
that whoever may oppose It's deci-
sions will in 80 doing place himself
outside the pale Of moral and Chris
tian law.
No doubi is entertained at The Va
rican that he Irish bishops will feel
it necessarily incumbent upon them
to follow the line of conduct pre-
scrIbed by the Holy SEE.
Archbishop Walsh, of Dublin, has
had conversation with Cardinal Sine
oni, the Project OF the Propaganda, in
the course. of which The Cardinal in
formed him Of the Necessity of sub
hitting to the views Of The Pope and
the recent decree OF the congregation

Dr. Walsh declared his readiness to

Constantinople that M. Tricoupis

The course Of policy now being

Paul Railway by the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna < Western Railway Company
causes question in many iIIiii;2,ds, as to
what the plans of the Lackawanna Com
psny are, 1t Is known that the Della
ware & Lackawanna Company has :or
years controlled this line of railway and
managed 1t so as to pay, as fir as bos-
able, the interest on the mortgage which
they he'd upon it. Soon after the
Nlnona Il Southwestern Railway prof.
act began to be agitated, the Lacka-
WANNA Company, by glance over
the country, saw that the con
st-netlo3 OF such a lie IF
railway as that the Winona people pro-
posed to build would greatly enhance
the value of the Green Bay road. 1t
would put that road on direct through
connection to the Pacific Coast. The
value ofits stock would, as natural re-
yult; he increased, and the road would
IA a short time be placed on par with
Tie, best roads in the Notthwest, both ss
, freight and a passenger line. The
Wlnona q Southwestern would. afford
Blutfs, Ia, snd their own line from
Manistee, Mich, would be the connec-
ton desired from Michigan to Buffalo
and on to New York.
Some time in April last, according to
reports, the Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western people purchased this Green
Bar STOCK end the road was III theft
hands. The prospect of the purchase
can readily be seen. The Lackawahfia
Company own and operate a line of rail-
road from New York to Buffalo and con-
troll road from Buffalo to Manistee,
Mich, known as the Flint & Pere
marquette Halfway, running east from
Manlstee, crossing Niagara River, pass
ing north of Lake Erie to Buffalo.
From Manistee to the Wisconsin shore,
over Lake Michigan, the Lackawanna
company owns a line of steamers
that are run winter and summer.
The Green Bar furnishes the connec-
lion to Wihons. All this road Is built
and in operation at the present time.
The Southwestern road completes the
une TO San Francisco. The length of
the proposed line from Winona to Coun-
ell Bluffs is about 325 miles. OF this 80
miles is already built, so that it
only remains to construct 230 miles of

The construction of the Winona &

The Lackawanna Company is an impor-
tant factor in the work, but Just what
the company's plans are is not known.
There are many roads in Wisconsin
seeking connection with this road.
The advantages of a connection will be
very great, as it will be a cheap

To the northern portion of Wisconsin
its benefit will be greatest, as it fur

BATTLE WITH RITERuEN,

Near St Louis.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, May 30.-At Mu-
sick's Ferry near St. Charles, Missouri
River, the sheriff of St. Louis County
and a posse of three deputies endeav-
ored to-day to arrest gang of river
men, and a battle ensued in which
Deputy Albert AhlfeIdt was fatally
injured; Deputy John Monohan was
seriously shot through the bowels, and
Deputy c. c. Garrett was hit three times
with bullets, but not dangerously
wounded. The sheriff escaped unhurt,
it is believed, but cannot be found at
this time. The trouble was brought
about by Capt. Smith swearing out
warrant against the kuntz brothers and
one Hellman, charging them with steal
ing bis ferry. The warrant was put in
the hands of the sheriff, r. c. Allen,
and last night he located the men and
the ferry. Early this morning he drove
to point on the river a few
miles from st. Charles with two depu-
ties and there employed a boatman,
John Monohan, to row them across the
river. They approached the shore cat1-
tlously, but were met by Hellman, who
0eckoned them to come on. Not salts
I'd but that the riverman would give
trouble, Deputy Garrett drew his re-
volver and advanced toward the
man who appeared quite peaceful.
When within few yards
Of Hellman, he dropped to the ground
and sung out fire" Four shots rung
out in the air, three of which took ef-
feet. He returned the fire and an uneven
battle was waged for several minutes
with the hidden enemy.

HEAVY RAIN IN COLORADO.
The Great American Desert Turne
Into a Vast Grass Meadow.

A Denver dispatch of the 30th saws:
4 marvellous rainfall which is perhaps
at a elimination to-dav has visited Colo
rado the past few weeks. Never before
in the history of the state has one-ftth
such an amount fallen in a similar
period The last week has witnessed a
dOwnpour every afternoon, and
something over fortnight ago
there was steady fall of
rain for thirty-six hours. Other
recent rains have lasted during twenty
four consecutive hours. The extraordi-
nary watering has been general through
out the state, reaching to points ike
Akron and Sterling, and permeating
equally the country once known on the
maps as e e"Great American Desert.
Persons who have crossed the plains
annually for sixteen years declare they
have never seen the prairies present
such a spectacle before. Usually the
fat country seems a barren waste, with
grass growing only in tufts or lunches.
Now the wide prairie resembles almost
a vast lawn, so smooth and bright
is the green sward. Around the city of
Denver at present the people have no
use for the Irrlgatlng bitches, and the
same is true of the land for 120 miles
eastward. 1t Is expected that nay will
be gathered IN SIX weeks or two months
on tracts that have never before been
utilized for the purpose. The eXtraOr-
dinarv rainfall has benefited all kinds
of crops. 4 generally accepted theory
for the increase of the rainfall is the
breaking up of so much new land by
settlers and the setting out of trees and
