Threaten His Life.

DYERsvILLE, To-, Dec. 3.-Rt. Rev.
Bishop Hennessy, in defeating a large
Catholic church here to-day in the pres
ence of 100 priests and 5000 people, read
from the altar letter which
he had received, signed "White
Caps" threatening his life if
he dared appear at the ceremonies,
The bishop bitterly denounced the
authors of the letter, pointing frequently
to certain portions of the church, as
though indicating the presence of his
enemies. There. are two factions in the
Dyersville church, which is located
in an almost exclusively German parish.
One faction desired Bishop Hennessy
to place the Rev. Father Brinkman in
charge of the parish. but the bishop re-
fused to do so. and sent the Rev. Father
Herr. This created considerable dis
satisfaction. The bishop CURLY refused
to reconsider his action when asked to
do so, and it is assumed that the threat
upon his life is the result.

several eases of prominence which they

perjury, may come up. CharlesBlakeman

Later there was trouble in the Marks
family, he skipped out and Mrs. Marks
and the girl immediately made deposit
ton that Marks was really the father of
the child. and that Brakeman was &C
cused because of threats made by
Marks. Now the old lady and the girl
have left the country. Then there are
of the Northwestern Collection and
Loan agency: that of Harry Benham,

AN INSTRUCTIVE INCIDENT.

The defeat of the Republican caucus
nominee for chaplain of congress was
significant, in that it conveys a useful
lesson to the Republican leaders. 1t will
teach them the danger of attempting to
force extreme measures. Party ties
are not as strong as in former times,
and the dictates of the caucus do not
carry the weight that they once aid.
We can recall the time, when the Re-
publican majority in congress was
under the domination of the three BIS
BLAINE, BUTLER and BINGHAM-it
would have been considered treason for
a Republican member to bolt the caucus
nominee for bOotblack, and the offend
ing member would have been pilloried
on the spot. 1t is different now. 1t was
one of those Outrages which are often
justified on the plea Of party necessity
when the Republican caucus put can
didate in the field against w. Ii. Mil
BURN, the blind preacher, who had
filed the post of chaplain during the
entire Democratic regime in the lower
louise. But there were enough Repub-

of consolidation. AS to the proposed con-
solidation with the Knights OF Labor. T. L.
Livingstone, president of The Georgia State
organization, said:
We propose to form an offensive and de-
fensive alliance with the Knights of Labor
and to cooperate with them as long as il is
mutually advantageous. If our paths lead us
along the same road it adds to the strength of
both orders to work together. When our
ways diyerge we can part in friendship to
meet further along III some other issue. /
am not one of the principal advocates of CO.
operation with the Knights. but can see the
to be derived from such step.

TWENTY SHOTS FIRED.
Two Men MOrtally Wounded in a
Street Fight i'm Colorado.

DENVER, Col, Dec 3.-A tragedy &C.
Cured here early this morning. resulting in
one mans death and another will probably
die before morning. Bailey Youngson who has
figured in several shooting scrapes, and who
is charged with killing Mart Dugan over a
year ago, had some trouble with Frank Cole,
and the men were looking for each other all
yesterday. armed for deadly battle. Early
this morning, as Youngson was walking
down Harrison avenue, accompanied by
Bart Dunley, he met Cole and Clarence
Wolverton. Cole and Youngson pulled their
revolvers, and began firing at each other.
The other men also drew their guns and
took part in the battle, some twenty shots
being fired. Dudley was shot through the
heart, and Cole was MORALLY wounded.
Youngson and Wolverton have been ara
rested. Excitement over the affair is in
tense.

ONE of the Mormon apostles in the recent
examinations testified that a Mormon would
not take second wife without the consent
of the first. That shows that the women look
favorably upon the system, of course. lit
tie further along the information was ELECTED
that the wife was assured that if she did not
consent she would be eIernally damned, and
when a wife was headed in that direction her
wishes were not to be considered. The man
who walks to the gallows without being
dragged helplessly shows the same sort of
cheerful willingness. \ wife who is willing
for her husband 10 take other women in that
relation has sunk her womanhOOd Ill re-
ligious fana icism or does not love her hus-
band. In one of the rural districts of Utah,
not long since, Gentle lady teachers came i'll
possession of a house built for Mormon
bishop with several wives. 1t was divided
into four equal divisions. each quarter de-
signed for woman and children, and with
no connection between the divisions. IL
shows that even bishop could not persuade
two wives of the same man to live il associ-
alton.

CHICAGO, Dec. Sat the meeting Of the
board OF managers OF the Interstate Com
merce association to-day the report of the
special board of arbitration on the adjustment
of through and local rates to points in Neb-
braska and Kansas was considered. The
Burlington and the Union Pacific refused to
accept the rates as recommended by the
board because they involved an advance in
the present through rates to Lincoln and
other Nebraska points, which have heretofore
been favored with lower rates than would,
its is claimed, naturally pertain to
their geographical position. The refusal Of
the above-named roads to change the present
condition of things arises from fear of pro-
voking the wrath of these localities and ulti-
mately causing further anti-railrOad legisla-
ton in that state. The consideration OF the
subject will be resumed tomorrow,

Horrible Fate OF Wealthy
Woman Addicted to DRINK.

Horrible Fate or Wealthy
Woman Addicted to DRINK.
DENVER, Col, Dec. ga horrible discovery
was made here late tonight, which may yet
prove TO be tragedy. About a year and
half ago Mrs. Richie, an old gray-haired
woman. about sixty years of age.
came here from Cheyenne, Wyo., accompa-
MED by young man of twenty-five, whom
she represented as her son, and deaf and
dumb daughter, about fifteen. They lived in
various parts of the city until about two
months ago, when they engaged apart
ments at 1921 Stout street, where
they lived very retired life.
Three weeks ago the mother and son went on
protracted debauch. The old lady had not
peen seen for several days. and the landlord
becoming alarmed broke open the door of
her room to night and was horrifed IN find
ing the woman lying upon the floor
by the side of her bed dead. with
her face almost entirely devoured by rats.
The body was taken to the corners. The
son was found in an adjoining room in
beastly state OF intoxlcation, and was taken
to the police station, where he now lies
unable to speak or give any account of him
self. The dead woman had an deposit at the
First National bank $4,000. The family
went to Cheyenne from Texas. and while
living i'll Wyoming g. son was mysteriously
murdered 1t is said the deaf and dumb
daughter knows who committed the crime,
but refused to divulge the secret. and no
arrests have been made.

lean members, who mad more respect
for prophecies than for caucus dictation,
who united with the Democrats in re-
eleeting Mr.. MILBURN.
As we have intimated, the incident is
both suggestive and instructive. There
will be no effort to discipline the mutt
nous members who broke away from the
caucus nominee, for the simple reason
that the Republican leaders realize the
folly of pursuing such course. 1t
ought likewise instruct them as to the
necessity for pursuing conservative
line of legislation. The Democratic nil
nority can be relied on to stand in solid
phalanX in opposition to all force bills,
subsidy jobs. or schemes TO increase the
burthens of taxation with view of en-
riching the monopOlists. 1t ought now
be apparent to the Republican leaders
that they cannot rely on the power of
the caucus to force objectionable egisla-
ton upon the country. There are yet a
few righteous men III SOdom who may
prove the salvation of the Republican
party, as they will surely aid the Demo
Gratis in the matter of keeping congress
in the line of decency and propriety.

ton of framing reply to Judge Cooley's
recent letter on the abuse of the
excursion rate privilege. There was

Judge Cooley's letter. The committee ap-
pointed to prepare q revised form of pro-
