SWISS NEUTRALITY.
What the Little Republic Bound Herself +
DO at the Vienna Congress.

What the Little Republic Bound Herself to
DO at the Vienna Congress.
BERLIN, June 25.-The North German
Gazette, in an article summarizing the
history of the development of Switzer-
lands neutrality since the Vienna Con-
gress, says: Switzerland had altered her
internal Constitution and infringed the
stipulations Of the congress. Prussia.
Austria and France, in 1s4S, served notice
upon Switzerland that they would not full
fill the obligations they had taken upon
themselves toward her unless she preserved
intact the conditions upon which her
neutrality was based; but, further than
this, the rights of Switzerland are not es-
neutrality, nor is this principle exclusively
dominant in defining the obligations of
Switzerland to other powers. The accepted
doctrines of International law provide tn at
no state shall tolerate within its bOundarise
any acts or efforts that are injurious to
other states. This principle applies with
especial force In the case of "a country whose
neutrality, .inviolability and integrity are
guaranteed by other powers. If state in
this position tolerates, or in any. way pro-
notes, such Injurious acts. it infringes the
privilege which has been conceded to 1t by
the guaranteeing powers. The breach OF
privilege is more fragrant when the state
becomes party to efforts against the safety
of neighboring state. or exercises its
authority to prevent its neighbOr from
warding off hostile intrigues."
AS result of the complaints made by
foreign powers of the actions of Socialists
and others in Switzerland, the Swiss gov
ernment has appointed a public prosecutor,
in order to keep proper watch over refugees.

lay ont the route. A company has already
been formed To build the road in which a
number of English and French bankers are
interested. From all accounts it is purely
business enterprise, without q trace of
sentiment or religious fervor. The travel
in the Holy Land of late years has
been, increasing steadily. and, it
is believed if tirst-class railway
accommodations are furnished. the
number of tourists who would annually

the road was granted by the Sultan some
time ago. and. although the engineering
difficulties are serious, the preliminary
surveys demonstrate that the road can be
built at a cost that will allow of handsome
dividends to the stockholders. The dis
tance from Jaffa to Jerusalem is only thirty
six miles by the road which travellers now
use. but the railroad will have to take more
circuitous route to climb the hills, which will
lengthen the distance by about ten miles.
Notwithstanding this, the trip will be
shortened from twelve hours. which is now
occupied by the stage between the two
points, to about three. The road will ap-

enterprise say that, as it will be largely a
tourists road, care will be taken to provide
strictly first-class accommodations. Coach

drawing-roO and Pullman cars.

citizens committee for the purpose of con-
sulting with the citizens in regard to the

so far progressed that he estimated the

maugh. above the stone bridge, would be
completed by the end of the week, and that
the work of cleaning up the streets and
thoroughfares In JOhnstOwn and neighbor-
ing boroughs. with the present force, would
probably be completed within the next ten
days. The work of cleaning out cellars un-
der such houses as had been condemned by
the Board of Health as a sanitary pre-
caution would also be completed with
In the same period, and that at the end of
that time there would remain, of necessity,
very considerable amount of work to be
done. but it would be mostly on private
property, considered as State work proper.
He stated further that the cOmmissary de-
partment is at present supplying pro-
visions to about 5000 people, there being
two large supply depots and eleven dis
trlbuting cOmmissaries.
Colonel Spangler stated that there were
now actually employed, earning wages,
$500 men. 1t was recommended that all
heads of families and single men earning
wages should be discharged from relief in
the line of food, clothing and supplies,
and that the commissary stations be
reduced to three or four in number,
and placed in the hands of Captain
Henry H. Koon, of Johnstown, who has
been assisting the department since the

rary st0re-rO0ms being erected on the Park
square were fully under way, and would
be completed within ten days; also that the
railroad, would be completed to-day, and
that the other three bridges would in all

of prominent men in the United States and

during the past three years. Among the
replies is the following frcm Cardinal Glib
bonS:
Respected and Dear Sir-In reply to your IA
vor OF the 9th ult., beg to say that as far as my
opportunities enable me to Judge 1t is the gen

Ireland has been exceedingly harsh and want
only severe, and in that view am compelled TO
concur. But hope this subject Is but passing
episode, soon TO be forgotten, or at least con
doned, In view of the blessings of home rule and
the privilege OF autonomy in domestic affairs
which Is in your grasp. trust that the friendly
relations between ENGLAND and Ireland will in
crease every day. and that the long, unnatural
and disastrous conflict will give place TO an hon
orable emulation of peace and commerce such
as exists among our federal states now.

SHOCKED THE GOOD PEOPLE.
A Classical" Church Entertainment That
Turned Ont to Be Plain Variety Show.

NEWARK, June 25.-Bethel and ST. Johns
Methodist churches, of this city, are in
state of great excitement over frst-class
sensation in the latter-named church last
week, the particulars of which have just
leaked out. About Two weeks ago the Rev.
Mr. Diggs, of Bethel Church, who is raising
funds for building new church. asked the
Rev.Mr. Palmer, of st. Johns. tor the use of
his church for classical entertainment.
A circular announced that the troupe en-
gagged was the Theo. Drury Operatic Com
pany, and composed of some of the greatest
talent in the country. Finally permission
was given to use st. Johns Church. and on
Wednesday evening the building was
crowded TO hedoors.
The opening number on the programme
amazed the audience and almost took away
the breath of Pastor Palmer and the off,
GERS of the church. AS the classical en-
tertainment" proceeded the baldheaded
men in the audience were witnessing gem
ulne variety show. Pastors Diggs and
Palmer did not exactly know how to classi-
fly IL. But the latter soon concluded that
1t was not the sort of entertainment that
ought to be given in church, and he rang
down the curtain. as theatre men would
say. A leading member of st. Johns

presented sort of wild West scene. which
was very poor, and when the cowboy of the
piece began smoking on the platform Mr..
Palmer went To Mr.. Barnett and again
asked him to avoid such acts or end the
performance.
Then came banjo solo and n dance by a
girl In short frock, and drunken son q
by one OF the troupe. This was too much
for the pastor and as n number of the dis
guested audience left the hall Mr.. Palmer
stepped to the pulpit and SAID he regretted
very much that he had given his consent
to the company using the church, as the
performance was not nj for such an edifice.
His remarks created much applause. Mr..
Barnett answered by saying that the troupe
had given the same show in MANY cities
and no fault had ever been found with il.

The Peace Of Europe Not Endangered,

The Peace Of Europe Not Endangered,
Though the Situation Is Unsettled.
VIENNA, June 25.-Count Kalnoky, ad-
dressing the delegations to-day, stated that
the peace of Europe was not endangered,
although the situation was unsettled. The
condition of things in Servia is such that
Austria is bound to guard against sub.
versive measures which may be contem-
plated by her enemies in that country.
Thss are few nations which manifest
dlsschcent, which would perhaps welcome
disturbance of the balance of power in
Europe. This fact causes feeling of in
security. but all the sovereigns are de-
voted to the maintenance of peace.
The Count said that the movement for
Servian autonomy was chlmerical, and did
not constitute danger to Austria. The
action of the recent Catholic congress could
not affect the cordial relations between
Austria and Italy.

Moore left for Oklahoma. 1t now appears
that gigantic conspiracy was Matched by
several persons to steal all the stock which
could be found and make away with it TO
the Territory. When the time come for ex-
ecuting the plans, dissensions arose among
the conspirators, and Triggs and Moore
mined to act on their own hook. Hints
dropped by several men who are now known
to have been involved in the conspircy, put
the officers on the trail of Triggs and
Moore. and they were arrested to-day at
Augusta with the stolen horses. Other ar
rests are expected to follow.
