THE MINNEAPOLIS CLUB.
No Site Secured as Yet For the
New Building.

A. B. Langdon denies the rumor that
was current last week, to the effect that
a site had been purchased for the new
Minneapolis club house. He states that
1t is true that negotiations have been
pending for the purchase of the old
Tribune building, but they have lately
been declared of, and nothing definite
has been done in any other direction.
The building committee has been ne
gotiating for lease of lot at the cor
ner of Fifth street and First avenue
south, belonging to Mrs. Hale, having
frontage of lis feet on Firth street and
Al on First avenue, but he doubts if a
leased building, no matter for how long
time, would fill the requirements. At
present, he says, there is absolutely
nothing in prospect.

HAS HOY GONE AWAY?

Rumored That the Detective Went
to Chicago After Knittle.
Inspector John P. Hoy was in close
consultation with the superintendent of
police yesterday over matter of much
importance, judging from the secrecy
maintained. Last night the report was
current in police circles that Hoy had
been sent to Chicago on special mis-
sion. Just what could take a Minneap-
oils police officer down there is not
known. Some persons incline to the
belief that Albert Knittle, who is be-
lieved to have been indicted for
forgery, has been corraled in the Windy
City, and that Hoy has been sent after

A plan has been hit upon whereby

because of the present administration,
but restaurant managers need hardly
take it for granted that people who
board with them during the week either
go out of town on Sunday or stop eating

feeds hundreds of people on week days
should be closed on Sunday.

John F. Plummer & Co. Fail.

New YORK, March 10. The dry goods
trade was startled to-day by the failure o.
John F. Plummer & Co. They made
general assignment for the benefit of credi-
tors to their cashier Jonah p. Murphy.
Plummer also made an individual assign
ment. Murphy says the assignment is
principally due to the depreciation in the
value of the goods the firm has beer
carrying for some time. Creditors, by nit
ing, can possibly make the suspension only
temporary. Murphy says the liabilities
are about one million dollars, of which
$40, 900 is for borrowed money and the bal
ance due to manufacturers and for trus
money deposited with the firm by relatives
and friends. The assets are nominally
little larger than the liabilities, and consis
of stock, outstanding accounts and valua-
BILE real estate owned by Plummer. The
trade attributes the failure to over-ad
vances, chiefly on satinet accounts, and
complications arising from the old firm of
Stoner g. Darling, whose business Plum
mer took. Plummer was active in Repub-
lican politics, but it is claimed that this
did not interfere with his business. He is
a personal friend of President Harrison,
and took a leading part in the last Presi-
Dental campaign, in the dry goods trade.

THE POPE And PEACE
The Offer of His Holiness to Act
as Mediator
BETWEEN EUROPEAN NATIONS.
With View to Bringing About Simulta,
taneOus Disarmament-The Negotiations
Between the Vatican and Berlin.

Especial to THE HERALD Examiner Dispatch,
ROME, March 19.-TBy cable to the New
York Herald Il have the authority of the
Vatican to announce through the Herald
that the Pope would consent to act as me-
diator through which simultaneous dis
armament of the European nations might
be brought about. The question was put
directly by the Herald correspondent and
the answer was equally direct. Leo XIII
has taken bold stand He holds that the
existence of the immense armies whict
are draining the wealth of Europe and in
ficting great suffering upon the toiling
masses, is anti-Christian. The German
Emperor wrote an autograph letter invit-
ing the Pope to send an ambassador to the
Berlin Labor conference. In reply the Pope
sent an autograph letter saying he could no
take part unless his representative was
given precedence over all delegates. Then
the Emperor wrote another letter urging
the Pope, in the interest of mankind, 10
take part in the conference so far as he
could and at least give it his moral support.
To this the pontiff has warmly responded.
L am authorized TO announce that the Pope
has written letter dealing with the entire
problem raised at Berlin. This has been
automatically communicated to the papal
nuncio in Germany and will be laid before
the International Labor conference. There
is no doubt but that movement is on
foot to give the Pope leading part in the
effort to deal with the universal labor
| troubles.
His holiness recognized this as great
opportunity for the church to put Itself
at the head of the world-the wide reform
demanded by organized labor He holds
that the nations must adopt the principles
of Christianity and that the church is the
only power competent to deal with the ire
mendous issues involved in the social and
industrial movement, The German EN-
Peror has frankly admitted that govern
nents cannot accomplish much unless or
gained Christianity comes to their aid.
| In this crisis the Pope has spoken in nj
uncertain voice, 1t is admitted that if the
millions of armed men who trample upon
the bread trays of the poor were stripped
of their uniforms and set to work creating
wealth. a great deal of the present distress
in Europe would disappear. One nation
dare not begin to disarm before another,
and the Pope is now in position to nego-
tiate between the nations for a general dis
armament Up to the present time the Vat
lean has managed to keep its negotiations
with the German ambassador secret.

william Will be His Own Chancellor

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch |
BERLIN, March 19.-[By cable to the N
Y.World Till this morning it was thought
that the friction between the Kaiser and
chancellor had been got rid of and modus
vivendi for a certain period been arrived
at, but now it is known that the breach is
beyond repair.
Its main causes are the following ::
Kaiser Wilhelm is determined to rule more
in accordance with the wishes of his peo-
pie. There is no longer the slightest
ground for belief in the alleged estrange-
ment between his majesty and Empress
Frederick, who has fully regained that in
fluence which she was said to have quite
lost. Others who have run counter to
Prince Bismarcks views on international
policy have gained his maiestys ear.
1t was in the highest degree disagreeable
to Prince Bismarck that the composition of
the new relchstag made it impossible for
him to continue to govern.
Reports that all the members of the
ministry had also entered Investigations
are at the moment of writing considered
groundless.
A belief is current that Herbert Bis
marck will remain. This causes confidence
at the bourse to night. The world of
haute finance of Berlin is not in the least
anxious about the future. Leading bank
ers have great confidence in the statesman
like qualities of the Kaiser. They believe
that he is accepting the inevitable loss of
his valued servant because his people are
crying for another system of government

THEATRICAL STARS.
Rumors of Serious Trouble Between 10. Jeffer-
son, W. J. Florence and Mrs. John Drew.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
New YORK, March 19.-The Morning
Journal says: There are rumors of seri-
Gus disturbance between Messrs Joseph
Jefferson, w. J. Florence and Mrs John
Drew. The trouble is said to have come
about in this way. Mr.. Florence, some
time ago, was forcibly retired from the
cast by his old enemy, the govt. 1t so hap
pened that the company just about that
time played in very queer towns and the
business was anything but good. Sud
denly Mr.. Florence was cured and coinci-
dentally the company reached the section
of country that was theatrically very good
In other words, it seemed as if F'lorence's
return pulled I'D business. On examina-
ton it turned out to be entirely probable
that Mr.. jefferson in his forty weeks sea-
son would make for net profits between
one hundred and sixty and two hundred
thousand dollars, or an average of some
thing like five thousand dollars a week.
Now Mr.. Florence receives for his SER
vices 81, 900 week. Mrs. Drew has mott
fed Mr.. jefferson that she won't act next
season. Like a wise man Mr.. Florence
hardly cares for a renewal of the contract
at anything like the terms he is at present
getting. The trouble thus far has not
reached critical stage, but is very de-
cided and efforts are being made on every
side to keep the matter as quiet as pos
sible.

a Mandarin Refuses Aims to Lepers and they
Sit at His Banquet Table.
Especial to THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Dispatch. !
PARIS, March d. BY cable to the n. Y.
Sum- DIR. Hochocquard, who recently re
turned from Tonquin, says leprosy is in
creasing in that country. The lepers are
kept in large settlements near the bigger
towns. A while ago mandarin OF high
rank invited all the members of his family
to come together to celebrate an anniver-
sary and offer sacrifices to his ancestors.
Having heard Of the impending ceremony
the chief of the neighboring leper settle
ment went to the mandarin and asked that
the rejoicing be made the occasion for Civ
ing aims to the leper village. The mandarin
brutally refused the petition and the leper
retired without word.
After the mandarin's, guests had as
sembled and while they were attending re
ligious services in the pagoda, crowd of
lepers left their village and installed them
selves in the banquet hall. They tasted all
the vlands which, according to usuage, had
been already prepared and placed upon the
table. When the guests returned to the
hall and found all the lepers in their places
they at once abandoned the repast, which
they would not taste, since it had been de-
filed by the touch of lepers. The latter,
therefore, had the dinner all to themselves.
For while after that they were kept very
closely confined to their village.
