Latest News from the FrOnt-Red Cloud
Addresses the Returned Recalcitrants at
Grand Council at Pine Ridge-A Fight
Imminent in the Bad Lands.
OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 19.-A Pine Ridge
special says: The military yesterday
counted the returned recalcitrants and
issued rations to them. There were
1,o24. A grand council was held We'd
nesday night. Red Cloud told them
that his heart was broken. They had
caused great deal of trouble, and now
their stock was here eating grass "a
ing SO much stock here) and they were
eating his rations; but he was willing to
give the grass and rations-and he
grunted. He would count it all nothing
if the trouble could be settled. If those
who were out would not come in the
soldiers We're forced to kill them. He
should feel sorry, for they were his
relatives, but he must say that it was
just.
A fight seems imminent. The hos
tiles are in the Bad Lands sixty miles
to the northwest. There are not more
than five hundred fighting men. Gem
eral Carr is close in their rear and their
case is hopeless. General Brooke has
exercised the greatest patience and
seems determined to exhaust every
peaceful means of settlement before au
advance is made. One company OF In
dian scouts under Lieutenant Preston
left camp yesterday for Rapid City. 1t
is also rumored that thu hostiles have

PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS.

The Census Office Preliminary Bulletin en-
Education Shows q Marked Increase of
Private and Parochial Schools, Particu-
larly Among the Catholic and Lutheran
Denominations.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The Census
Office has in press preliminary bulle-
tin on education, prepared by James H.
Blodgett, who was connected in SIM
liar capacity with the Tenth census.
The investigation contemplated the
treatment of schools in three groups
according to the mode of support, pub
lie, private and parochial, the latter in
the sense of subdivision of private
schools. The attendance of public
school statistics of Louisiana, New

letin, showing the sex of the
pupils and teachers and in the case
of Louisiana the sex and color. In the
past ten years the increase in popula-
ton for these States has been: Louis
lana, 1901 per cent; New Hampshire,
S.51 per cent; Wisconsin, 1888 per
cent. The changes in public school en-
rOllment in the same period have been:
Louisiana, gain, $3.50 per cent: New
Hampshire, loss, ISL per cent; Wiscon-
sin, gain, 1897 per cent.
The imperfect results of the inquiry
regarding private and parochial schools

ures justify the claims made by religious
bodies maintaining parochial schools.

THE kEAN FAILURE.
An Assignment Made by S. A. Kean, the
Chicago Banker-The Methodists Hard
Hit--Liabilities Nearly Four Times the
Assets-A Steady Drain of Cash Caused
the EaiIure

An Assignment Made by S. A. Kean, the
chicago Banker-The Methodists Hard
Hit--Liabilities Nearly Four Times the
Assets-A Steady Drain of Cash Caused
the Failure.
CHICAGO, Dec. 19.-S. A. Kean. the
banker, whose failure has been an
nounced, made an assignment this morn
ing. The deposits are said to reach half
million dollars, nearly all due to small
depositors largely of the Methodist per-
suasion, as the head of the house was
prominent in that denomination.
The liabilities are estimated at $780,
600. 1t is said the assets will not
amount to over one-fourth of the liza
bilities. W. P. Fennell, attorney for
Mr.. kean, said this morning that there
had been steady drain-not run-on
the bank since the first day of the
present month, when suspicious re-
ports of the banks condition first
began to be circulated among
the depositors. Two hundred
thousand dollars in cash, Mr.. Fenneu
said, had been withdrawn from the bank
in fourteen days, and that amount in
these times of tight money, he said, is
no insignificant sum. In making the
assignment Mr.. Kean turned over every
bit of tangible property he owned, in
Guiding his home and all property here
and elsewhere. In the language of his
attorney: HE came down town this
morning with $40 in his pocket-all he
has in the world"
Benjamin F. Jacobs, the assignee,
took possession of the bank this morn
ing. He declines to see the banks
creditors for the present. He hopes to
put the bank ON it's feet again. No
other local bank is affected by the fail
ure, and the presidents of all the Ma
tional banks agree that monetary mat
ters in this city are in an excellent con-
dition.
1t is reported on good authority that
a special correspondent of the Wall
Street News, who was allowed to in
spect the books and securities of the
bank, telegraphed his paper that the
creditors would not realize more than
twenty-five cents on the dollar.

THINE EAR, o, CZARl

Resolutions Introduced in Congress in
depreciation of the Persecution of the
Jews in Russia.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Mr. Cum
mings introduced in the House yester-
day the following resolution:
Resolred, That the members of the House
of Representatives of the United States have
heard with profound sorrow, and with feel
ngs akin to horror the reports of the perse-
cution of the Jews in Russia, rejecting the
barbarlsm of the past, disgracing humanity
and impeding the progress of civilization.
Resolre6, That our sorrow is intensified by
the fact that such occurrences should hap
pen in a country which has been and is now
the firm friend of the United States and
which covered itself with glory not long
since, by the emancipation of it's serfs and
by it's defense of helpless Christians from the
oppression of the Turks.
Resolred, That copy of these resolutions
be forwarded to the Secretary of State wit h
a request that he send them to the Ameri-
can Minister at st. Petersburg. and that the
Minister be directed to present the resolu-
tions to His Imperial Highness, Alexander
III, Gar of all the Russias.
The resolution was referred to the
committee on foreign affairs.

Hon. Michael HI. Phelan, Ex-United
States Consul-General at Halifax, Nova
Scotia and Publisher of the Western
Waterman. Stricken Down by Heart
Disease on the Streets in st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, Dec 2O.-Hon. Michael II.

Ole enterprises in this city, dropped
dead from heart disease Thursday even
ing in front of the real-estate office OF
Charles F. Vogel, TIC Chestnut street.
hr. Phelan left his Office, 720 Chestnut
street, shortly before six o'clock, saying
that he would return soon. He was on
his way back, and was just passing Mr..
VogePs office, when he was seen to
stagger and fall by some gentlemen
walking behind him, who hurried to his
assistance and conveyed him into Mr..
Vogel's office. Medical aid was at once
summoned but before a physician ar
rived Mr.. Phelan had ceased to breathe.
michael II. Phelan was born on Cape Bre-
ton Island, Nova Scotia, fifty four years ago,
and had been resident of st. Louis for about
forty years. His public services have been
of a conspicuous kind, and he was foremost
in all Catholic enterprises. When but boy
his parents left a Northern for Southern
cline, and Michael entered st. Patrick's
Parochial School in st. Louis He
learned the cooper's trade, and
acquired shop of his own, which
he gave up in 1868. He then embarked
with his brother Daniel, Catholic clergy
man, who at that time had already gained a
reputation for independence of speech in
the publishing business. The first number
of the Western Waterman, secular religious
weekly, appeared on January IL, 1859. MI.
Phelan has been interested in the paper ever
since, and accumulated a competency.
Mr. Phelan was elected to the lower house
of the Missouri Legislature in 1868, soon be-
came prominent in that body, and two
years after was reelected. He was elected
State Senator in 1872, and for a time was
president pro tenn. of the Senate. Mr..
Phelan was one of the seven commissioners
who framed the Scheme and Charter, which
has been the basis of local municipal legis-
laton since St. Louis City and County were
divided. On May rs, 1885, Mr.. Phelan was
appointed Consul General to Nova Scotia by
President Cleveland, and he served until
Mr.. Phelan was appointed assignee of the
Central Savings Bank, which collapsed
tbout fourteen years ago, and helped to
Straighten out its Indebtedness. Notwith-
standing his business interests, Mr.. Phelan
was member of the Upper Council Of the
st. Vincent de Paul Society and other Catho-
lie organizations, and to the House of the
Good Shepherd and kindred charities his
best efforts have been devoted
Mr.. Philan's sudden death will be
mourned by large circle of friends,
and by none more than the various
Catholic interests in which he displayed
so large an interest.
