HIGHLICENSE FAVORED
A Big Meeting Of Catholics in
Baltimore.
CARDINAL GIBBONS SPEAKS
Prominent Prelates Insist on Hold.
ing the Liquor Traffic With
in Bonds.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 17.-An immense
mass meeting, under the auspices of
Catholics, was held at the academy of
music tonight for the purpose of ad-
vancing the highlicense movement. The
meeting was presided over by Cardinal
Gibbons, and upon the stage were Arch
bishops Ireland of St. Paul, Elder of
Cincinnati, Bishop Virtue of England,
Monsignor McCalgan and large
number OF priests. In opening the meet
ing Cardinal Gibbons said: 81 appear
before you tonight not only as u church,
man, but as fellow-citizen, anxious Tor
the welfare of my native city. | believe
the cause we are here to advocate to
night will enhance our welfare. 1t will
be the means of bcttering the condition
of poor people and laborers. The move
ment we are striving for is for the labor
ing mans benefit and 1T must and shall
be successful
Speeches were made by Rev. James
Nugent of England and Rev. DIR. Cleary
OF Wisconsin, Archbishop Ireland of st.
Paul and Bishop keane. The following
resolutions were adopted:
The Catholic clergy and laity of Bati-
more, recognizing the gigantic evils of
intemperance, which are imperiling the
interests and wellbeing of state and so
ciety, and casting about for means which
will diminish the evils and pave the way
to complete moral restoration, believe
they see this remedy in high license
If they have been backward III uniting
in the efforts of many of their dis
tingIished fellow citizens in the holy
cause it is not from ignorance of the
great danger, nor the lack of heartfelt
interest to avert il, but solely from their
inability to compromise the sacred in
tcrests of truth by accepting certain
positions which were sometimes found
to be concomitants of such movements
under non. Catholic auspices. 1t is
Resolved, That high licenseis the only
feasible and peaceful means of extermi-
mating a deluge of vices and crimes of
which drunkenness is the fruitful source.
The license should be put so high as to
make it practically prohibitory in regard
to the multitude of low saloons. Ger
tain restrictions should be enacted as to
time and place of sale. The number of
saloons in any one radius should be
limited by statute, and should not be
allowed near churches or schools. Lii
cense should be given only to persons OF
tried character

MRS. PARNELL'S CASE
She Has Repeatedly Rejected
Offers of Aid,
BOTH FROM HER SON AND OTHERS
An Unfortunate Eccentricity for
Which the Irish Leaders Are
Blameless.

NEW York, Nov. lit was stated
this morning, with reference to Mrs.
Parnelps circumstances, that Irish
leaders never contributed to her assist
ance because they never knew the des-
perate condition of her affairs. An Irish
nationalist said that the statement is u
fabrication. Irish leaders endeavorod
time and again to provide comfortably
for Mrs. Parnell, but through her un-
fortunate eccentricity she repelled every
attempt, no matter how delicately
made.
Years ago, when fund was raised for
Parnell, he offered to relieve his mother
of the encumbrances upon her property,
but she declined his assistance.
1t Is unfortunate, of course, that Mrs.
Parnell should be reduced to anything
like destitute circumstances, but she
has steadIastly refused advances and
assistance from her sons best friends,
and it is not on account of any intention
on his or their part that she may be
pinched in circumstances now.
BoRpENrowN, n. j., Nov. l7.-Dr. w.
Fl. Ships of this city, attending physi-
clan OF the Parnells here for several
years, says at no time since Mrs. Par
nell took up her residence at ''lronsides"
has she lacked either for medicine OF
medical attention. He further says that
her present physical condition. consider
ing her years, is remarkable for its vigor.
LONDON, Nov. 1S.--Parnell states that
he was greatly surprised when he read
in the newspapers reports which spoke OF
the poverty of his mother, and lmme-
diately cabled his agent in New York to
supply her with funds. He had no rea-
son to suppose that his mother was
pressed for money, as on previous occa-
sions when she desired help she had al
ways applied for and obtained prompt
remittances of sums required. He had
received q number of letters from her
recently and in none of them did she
complain of the want of money. He
does not suppose there Is any danger oi
the foreclosure and sale of her estate, as
year ago he instructed his American
agents to guard against this by necessary
advances. His mother had always de-
clinedto reside any where but In America.
New York, Nov. 1S,-Since the story
of Mrs. Parnelrs distress was sent out
from all sides. II looks now as though
she will not only be secure from further
want, but that the sum of the entire
mortgage on her place will be quickly
raised. James Slevin, who acts as over
seer at the place, said to-day that hal
her destitution had not been told. Re
| ferring to the statement that he should
have been able to raise enough on the
farm to keep the house, Slevin said the
fact is that had to sell all the tools Il
buy food and had to cut and sell woot
to pay for winters fuel. Only one store
keeper in Bordentown, Slevin said
would trust Mrs. Parnell for cent.
worth OF goods.

didn't wonder we were enthusiastic over
our city, 10 was marvellous. He wasn't
accustomed to going into enthusiasm
over any place outside of Illinois, but
must make an exception in favor of Spo-
kane.
With its extensive forests of fine tim
ber, ITS wonderful fields of grain, and all
agricultural products, its fine fruit and
vegetables, its vast undeveloped mining
resources, its beautiful dancing river
offering every facility for manufactures,
he expected 1t would soon be city OF
one or two hundred thousand inhab-
itants. In fact nothing would surprise
him that Spokane people might accom-
plish. Don't try to surprise me- says
the doctor. You cant do IT,
If he should go back and tell the llli.

lie said there was only one thing un-
pleasant to him here, namely; He
| would walk down town, and every one
he saw. would be walking, just AS fast as
he could walk, or pounding away just
as hard as he could pound, or holding
the reins as hard as he could, while his
team went tearing along everything
rushing, while he moved so slowly
about, and he always wished before he
returned that some one would step up
behind him and-here the doctor made
u very suggestive motion with his right
lower limb.
AN APPEAL FOR THE COLLEGE.
DR.. Adams then made an appeal to the
citizens of Spokane for an endowment
fund for the Spokane Methodist Episco-
pal college. Explaining in his pleasant
but concise and logical manner the great
advantage TO any community of the best
possible educational advantages in an
intellectual, moral and financial way.
| He informed the audience that $40, coo
had been donated for this purpose by
the ministers at the Methodist Episco
pal general conference, and that they
| wished to know what Spokane would do
before presenting the matter elsewhere.
In response to this eloquent appeal
! the sum of $4,000 was subscribed III a
! few moments, one more proof of the
| liberality of the citizens of Spokane,
who are ready to respond to u call for
aid if the cause be good.
In the evening DIR. Adams again ad-
dressed large audience and after an
eloquent sermon on "All Things Work
ing Together for Good" he again APP
pealed to the good people for subscrip-
tiOns to endow the college, and in a short
time about $30,0 600 was added to the
pledges of the morning, making a grand
total of S77,650.

OUR C0NGRESSMEN.
Thew Hold a Meeting at
Washington
AND AGREE ON A PLAN OF ACTION
Protection for Lead Ores, Wool
and Hides, and Increased
Silver Coinage.

WAsHfSGToN, Nov. 1S.--The mem
bers from the new Northwestern states
got together to-day all being present
except Mr.. Clifford but Major Heckler
spoke for him, and the other members
who had seen him stated that he was in
accord with the purposes OF
the meeting as far as everything
was considered that they had agreed
upon. The various interests ofthe West
were taken up and considered, and there
was an unanimous sentiment in favor of
the following propositions;
Unlimited or largely increased silver
coinage.
The imposing OF duty on all lead
ores whether mixed with silver or not.
Protection by tariff on every agricul-
tural product.
Protection of the sheep industry.
Restoring the duty on hides.
The reduction of the tariff on sugar
and rice.
They further were unanimous in
agreeing to ask for II representation on
the leading committees, the following
being named as desirable: Rivers and
harbors mines and mining territories
postoifices and postroads; public lands
and Indian affairs.
In case a committee on irrigation Is
appointed they will ask for representa-
tion on that. They will also demand
that the experiments began by the gov
ernment on irrigation be continued, and
that IA system of reclamation and preser-
yation of Western lands be devised.
They agreed that il would be best 70
act as unit in all matters where 1t was
possible.
When the speakership was mentioned
every body still stood and gazed away
from his neighbor. None of the number
felt like committing themselves.
They all were of the opinion that it
would be good thing if they
could vote as a unit on this question,
but as il was almost certainty that
they were not agreed now on the matter
it was deferred.
The meeting caused much comment
among members and others interested
in the cooming legislation.

[ The Brazilian Republic Is
Assured.
PRACTICALLY NO OPPOSITION.
The Emperor Has Been Told
to Leave the Country.
ALL PAST OBLIGATIONS TO Be HONORED
The New Government Will Soon
Make q Statement to the
Powers.

LONDON, Nov 1s.-Dispatchcs received
here this afternoon from Rio de Janeiro
rciterate the statement that the procla-
nation of the republic has met with no
opposition. The latest intelligence re-
ceived at Rio de Janero indicated that
Basiar and Pernambuoo were In state
of revolution. People everywhere are so
much absorbed in the new order OF
things, politically speaking, that bust
ness is at a complete standstill.
There is said to be considerable mystery
o. Rio dc Janeiro in regard to the de-
parture of the emperor and his family,
1t is asserted in some quarters that he
has not yet left the country. The British
mail steamer Atrate, from Montevideo
for Southampton, Is due at Rio TO-.
morrow and some believe the party will
take passage upon that steamer for
Europe.
Commercial dispatches are forwarded
from Brazil to foreign countries without
delay, but all dispatches relating to the
political situation or giving any infor-
nation regarding the new government
have to be submitted to the censor. AS
. result of this the only intelligence
about the revolution which had reached
the outside world, except the very
mcager facts that have got through in
commercial kilograms in cipher, is that
which has met the approval of the gov
ernment censorship.
A dispatch has been received at the
Brazilian legation here in London from
DIR. Barboa, saying that the minister of
finance of the new government had di-
rected the Brazilian minister to notify
the London stock exchange that all
financial engagements entered into by
the imperial government will be faith.

Since the service and posting of printed
notices. announcing to those located,
without authority, or by mere suffer
ance, upon the lands and right of way of
the Northern Pacific Railroad Company
in sections seventeen and nineteen in
this city, that they would be required to
sure nder up the possession OF the same
within thirty days from the time OF such
service, the attorney for the company,
together with Mr.. Hohncck, II represcn-
tative of tho land department. of the
under instructions from the company,
spent many days in passing through
what is termed the Squatter district,
making inquiries as to the condition of
those living there, relative To their
ability to provide for themselves homes
elsewhere in the city, in the event that
they should be driven out of their
present abodes, as contemplated IN the
notices.
They found that many families were
without the means to pay the rents
which would be charged them for build
ings already constructed elsewhere i'll
the city, and this, not because such
rents were exorbitant, or by reason OF
failure to obtain employment, but be
cause, in many instances, the heads OF
families were or had been confined to
their homes by sickness and were physi-
cally unable to earn the means necessary
for payment of rent.
This condition OF affairs was found to
be largely due to the crowded condition
of the district in which they live, the
almost uninhabitable cabins which SO
insecurely shelter them, and the lack of
those proper sanitary conditions which
exist elsewhere in the city.
Others were found who were without
employment, because the lines of occu-
patton in which they. had been engaged
prior to the fire have since been discontin-
ued awaiting the construction OF proper
facilities to accommodate them.
Others, again, lost so much Of their
pors onal affects in the fire that they are
compelled to continually exhaust their
present earnings in procuring supplies
for their comfort through the winter
when the weather may be such that they
can not obtain steady. employment.
Many are poor emigrants, who came
here since the fire with limited means,
and nave been unable to procure other
homes.
Representations of the company have
also conferred with the members OF va
rious relief associations in the city, and
with other citizens, and find these views
US to the condition OF affairs among
these people fully confirmed by them.
They have represented TO Mr.. Schulze
general land agent OF the company, the
| cond ition of these people just as they
found II, and have also communicated tc
him the suggestions and recommends
tions of the charitably disposed citizens
with whom they conferred upon the
subject.
After careful consideration of the mat
ter Mr.. Schulze has concluded that

Judge Blake WIN Open His Court To-
Morrow 1IOrning.

On Wednesday morning Judge
Blake's court will be opened, when
n. calendar will be arranged and
other necessary business transacted.
The judge received his commission
yesterday and was sworn in by
Judge Harrison, probate judge.
The grand jury will be here on
Monday, and the petit jury ON next
Tuesday.
Judge Blake's commission was is
sued by Governor Moore and was
one Of his last official acts. The
commission, coming from the retir-
ing governor, was somewhat of a
surprise to the judge, who rather ex-
pected that Governor Ferry would
sign it, and in fact had written to
the latter gentleman nquiring
when he might look for IL.
The Doodle cases will be presented
to the grand jury at this term of
court, and Judge Blake says that he
will open with very full docket.

WAsHINsToN, DC, Nov. 17.-Members
of the Brazilian legation are still with
out information direct from their own
country in regard to the situation there.
They were in hope OF receiving some
news to-day, but none came, and their
only intelligence was derived from the
press and from telegram TO the United
States department of state. Secretary
Blaine said this evening that he had re-
ceived dispatch from Rio, and that it
simply confirmed the press dispatches.
1t stated, in Substance. that the army

BANKRUPT Law.
President Harrison Requested to Ad-

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1s.--President Har.
rison was visited to-day by committee
of the national convention of commercial
bodies, headed by Colonel Broadhead OF
Missouri as chairman and accompanied
by Colonel Torrey, author of the Torrey
bankrupt bill. The committee laid be-
fore the president copy of the proceed.
ings of the national convention of repre-
sentatiyes of commercial bodies, en-
bodying the Torrey bankrupt bill, and
urged him to recommend in his forth
coming message to congress the enact
ment by that body of uniform equit-
able bankrupt law.
A number OF addresses were made, and
in the discussion which followed the
president said he had always thought
there ought to be perm anent Legislation
upon the subject of bankruptcy instead
OF temporary law to simply relieve
certain unfortunates who had been
affected. He promised the committee
that he would consider the question of
recommending legislation upon that sub.
ject to congress in his message.

MORE FLUXING ORE.
A Fine Ledge Discovered Twenty
Miles From Town.

Major G.. A. Manning of Post
Falls brought to the city yesterday II
sack of hematite iron ore, which was
taken from claim recently discov-
cred near the line of the Northern
Pacific railway, twenty miles from
this city. There is said to be an un-
limited quantity of the ore. 1t has
the appearance of being just the ore
needed for fluxing, and when a
smelter is built here will prove IL
great benefit. Major Manning left
the samples with Major w. NJ. Spell
man of the sampling works, who
will have an assay made.
Dennis Ryan's statement to the
REVIEW that Spokane Falls was not
yet ready for smelter owing to the
absence of iron ore for fiuxing ptlr-
poses appears to be meeting with
rather emphatic contradiction.
