WHITNEY MEANS BUSINESS
It Is Said That Admiral Luce Has Order. tp Shell Port-au-Prince Unless the
 Haytian Republic is at Once Released.

tp Shell Port-au-Prince Unless inc Haytian Republic is at Once Released, WASHINGTON, Dec 10-Mr. J. De Bree Higgins confidential clerk of Commodore
 Walker, left Saturday for New York with secretary WhitneY's sealed orders for Ad- mlral Luce regarding the Haytian trouble
 Of course nothing definite is known of thelr contents, but officer well informed says that in case the ship Haytian Re- public IS not released immediately Admiral Luce has orders to shell the town of Port-au, Prince.
 NEW YORK, Dec l0-SecretarY of the Navy William c. Whitney came on from Washington late Saturday night and said yesterday in regard to the probabilitv or Uncle Sam's cruisers blowing Hayti off the face of the earth that before he left the capital he had prepared all the papers in the case.
 VI do not know positively" he added. whether the papers have been transmitted to the proper officials. The Galena will un- doubtedly leave this port for Havti, at the latest, Tuesday, and perhaps before. miehs state here that 1t has been the intention of the United States government all along to send cruiser to Hayti, even had the seizure or the Haytian Republic never taken place, The report from Washington that Commo. dore Walkers clerk, Mir. Hippins Jeff the capital Saturday evening with sealed orders for Admiral Luce is no doubt true. We'll, it is about time that the un- pleasant situation which Hayti has got her. self into should receive consideration. Since Secretary Bayard'S decision prqnouncing the seizure of the Boston steamship illegal cer- tain papers pertinent to the case have passed into my hands, and have endeavo ored from that time to expedite matters and have the dlfhculty adjusted The so called power in Fortau Prince has unquestionably done us grlevous wrong, and it behoves us to right that wrong with the greatest possible dispatch"

Sings in His sleep.

PITTsBURG, Dec. 10.-Robert Chessman. of Etna, is suffering from an affection of the heart, complicated by the impairment of his bronchial tubes. This latter affection neces- sitates that he shall exercise his vocal powers constantly, whether sleeping or waking.
 Visitors to the town, in passing the Chess man house late at night, are surprised to near musical notes coming from the room of the sleeping singer. He has sung three or four different airs nightly for several wears.
 Singing is the only specific which prevents him from suffering while asleep '.''

Powers and Duties of Cardinal An
 Office Sometimes Preferred to That of sSs Popc-High Character of the Men From
 Whom . Selection win be Made.
 NEW YORK. Dec 1o--A papal consistory is 1c be held in Rome in a few weeks, which wlh name number of new cardinals Next eo the position of pope that of cardinal is the highest to which any Catholic clergyman can aspire. 1t has at times, indeed been more sought than that of the head of the church, for the reason that many popas have been absolutely ruled by the cardinals, while the cardinals as rule are not ruled by the pope any more than they choose to be.
 There are at present a number of vacant seats in the College of Cardinals The occu- pants of some of them have, however, been practically selected in adz se The major domo of the pope, an Italian, is to have the red hat France is to have cardinal, the candidate of President Carnot Germany VIII have one who will be friendly with the young Emperor William, and Austria will secure the appointment of one who will be m accord with the reigning house of the Hapsburgs. According to the best advices
 rom Rome America is to have at least one and probably three of the new appoint ments, and the candidates for these vacant lsats in the College of Cardinals are numer- ous There is tradition in the Catholic church that one of the popes was called to fsSlne to rule, from his cell in an African dessrt; hence every American archbishop and bishop has some reason to expect eleva- tion. But simple monks are not called to the papaf chair any more, and among all the aspirants for the coveted red hat there are just about dozen who have any chance of success, and among these the new cardinals will be found. These are:
 s- Archbishop Patrick A. Feehan, of Chicago: Archbishop William Henry Elder, of Gin cinnati; Archbishop Michael A. Corrigan. of New York: Archbishop Patrick John Ryan, of Philadelphia; Archbishop Patrick w. Riordan, of San Francisco; Bishop John Loughlin, of Brooklyn; Bishop Thomas c. Becker, of Charleston; Bishop Richard Gil- mouf, of Cleveland; Bishop Edward Fitz- gerald, of Little Rock Ark Bishop John L. Spaulding, of Peoria, Ills. Bishop John Ire land, of St. Paul; Bishop John J. Keane, of Washington, D. c. These are the leading
 tholic churchmen of America.
