 Against Secret Societies.
 BALTIMORE. Nov. 13.-Several papers were read by prominent laymen at the Catholic Congress before adiourning motion was adopted that an Interna- tional Congress be held in 1892 where the Worlds Fair is held.
 Before adjourning sine die at D. m., Archbishop Ireland, in response to loud calls, made short address. He told the delegates to tell at home what they had seen and heard in Baltimore ''GC home filled with enthusiasm from this first Congress" he said, and spread ii among your people. Heretofore they have done but little, now great things have and can be done. Each year should show a marked improvement in the propagation of your faith.''

HIS MESSAGE
The President Will Make a
 New Departure.
HE WILL NOT TAKE CHANGES
Typewriters Will Copy His Message to Pre-
 vent it Being Stolen.

He is Afraid of the Enterprising COrres-
 pondants-Candidates for tho Speaker
 ship to Open Headquarters-No Change
 to be Made in Senate Omcers-Presiden-
 tlal Pardons for Commentators.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-The inten- tion of President Harrison to have his message only copied by his typewriters and not printed at the Government Printing Office, as done heretofore by his predecessors, has caused some com -mens a number ot stories in regard to attempts to steal Presidential messages in past years. The custom has been to give the copy of the message to the competitors sworn to secrecy. The work has been done in the Government Printing Office by small takes, each galley taken and locked up in safe until it was all done, and then proofs taken of it. Last year a newspaper correspondent came very near stealing the proofs day or two before the message went to Congress.
 The correspondent, who was employed in the printing office, went down to the building and managed to get the fore man in good humor, in a Yay not ex, actly according to the prohibition idea. After accomplishing this, the cores pondent sent the foreman out and hid behind large press. The watchmar came in and found, as he thought, the office empty, and locked the door. The correspondent then came forth from his hiding place and went to the spot where he had learned that the proofs of the message were. He secured all he wanted and put them under his vest and wen toward window. Just as he though all was right the door opened and the watchman entered. The newspaper mar attempted to get out the window, but the watchman was too quick for him He collared the correspondent, noticed the size of his vest, pulled out the mes sage and hustled the newspaper mal out of the building.

Cashier Cresson Accused of Robbing a
 Conshohocken Church.
 CoNsHoHocKEN, Pa., Nov. 13.-Wm. Henry Cresson, the defaulting Trades mems Bank cashier, is also short in his church accounts. He held the position of accounting warden of Calvary Protest ant Episcopal Church and had the hand ling of money for pew-rents and other purposes.
 Through him it went to the church. One contribution of $500 that was handed to him by prominent member of the church to pay into the church fund was recorded as only S35O, the bal ance, it is supposed, being appropriated to Cresson's own use. A number of members who paid their pew rents to him have not been given credit in the books.
 It has been discovered that a number of depositors in the bank have received notice that their accounts are over- drawn, although they believed they should have several hundred dollars there still.

 LONDON, Nov. 13.--In his address for the Times" before the Parnell Con- mission, Sir Henry James referred to the evidence addueed before the Com' mission which showed the common aims and methoes of the I. R. B., and Clan na-Gael. He declared that the skirmish- ing fund was nothing but a murder fund pure and simple.
 He sccseed the Parnellite members of Parliament of ,eoncealing their alH ance with secret societies behind a pre- tence of constftu tiona1 methods and asserted that many members of these secret societies were ready at any time Ito resort to the most infamous out rages.
 ! Retiring to the disclaimer of the Par nellites that they were in no way con- nected with revolutionary movements or the abettors and advocates thereof and the rupture of the American Irish with Rossa, Sir Henry James said tha: the rupture with Rossa did not mean the abandonment of dynamiting. Rossa was rejected only because he was gar rulous and indiscreet. The policy which Patrick Ford maintained implied { that revolutionary partisans, could mur- der and incite any crime if it were di voted against England.
