plished quite number of things, al
though the last legislature was some
what incompetent. But, on the other
hiind, it could not be denied that the
farmers were in the minority, therefore
any alleged incompetency of the legisla-

SCANDAL ECHOES.
A Belief That the Prince Divulged
the Secret.
HIS ROYAL HIeHNEss DENOUNCED.

The Religious Press Most Severe In
Its Comments on the Future Rulers
Gambling Propensitics-Thc Prince
I'm Sulky Frame OF DIind-The
Effect la Army Circles.
LcSpoN, June 12.-The fact that in
his examination in court the Prince OF
Wales was not asked whether he di-
vulged the secret of the "precis," while
all the other parties to the affair were
questioned on that point, is taken as
confirmation Of the rumor that the Sc
cret did actually owe its publicity to the
careless tongue of his royal highness
The story is that the prince confded the
morsel of gossip to his fayorite, Lady
Brooke, who in turn revealed it to
friend of hers, who happened to have
been scorned by Sir William Gordon
Cumming and who at once saw the op-
portunity for her revenge.
The outspoken newspaper press COM
ments upon the part the prince played
in the baccarat scandal continue to be
the sensation OF the day in England and
elsewhere. A newspaper reporter. who
was present near the Prince Of Wales at
Ascot when the race for the gold cup
was won by Lord Hartington's Morton,
telegraphs that the Prince of Wales,
who witnessed that event, was in very
sulky frame of mind, caused, it would
appear, by the storm of adverse news
paper criticism which has swept and is
still sweeping over the heir apparent.
Vigorous Dcnunciation.
The religious press is the most severe
in its comments upon the Prince of
Wales conduct. The Christian World,
an influential independent religious
weekly paper, representing all the Prot
estant denominations, says:
"The throne rests upon the founda-
ton Of public opinion only; A few more
scandals like that Of Tranby Croft
ward the Eighth would never be
crowned"
The British Weekly remarks: "The
revelations are enough to sober up the
strongest supporters of the monarchy"
At the conference of the Glamorgan-
shire Congregational churches at Car
diff, Wales, the conduct of the Prince
Of Wales in the baccarat scandal was
denounced.
The Effect in Army Circles.
The Vienna correspondent of The
Times says that the 'baccarat scandal
has caused a sensation in army circles
on the continent, especially in countries
where the Prince of Wales is honorary
colonel of several regiments.
This correspondent also calls atten-
ton to the fact that an Austrian gem
eral who was found to have condoned
in a similar manner to that adopted by
the Prince of Wales acts of cheating
upon the part of one of his subordinate
officers was compelled to resign from
the army in order to avoid being tried
by court martial.
The Globe says that both the army
and navy feel most keenly the stigma
which has been placed upon an honora-
BILE profession by the agreement en-
tered into between field marshal and a
general to secrecy in regard to gam
bling, and by gambling with youngsters.

His Cali to Rome Crcntes Consterna-
tion Among His Many Patients.
PITrsnrRo, June 12.-The truly re-
markable cures of all ailments that flesh
is heir to effected by the Rev. Father
Mollinger at the shrine of ST. Anthony,
on Troy hill, Allegheny, is attracting
attention throughout the country. Over
1000 invalids from various parts of the
country have arrived in this city since
Monday, and they are coming by every
train. Several of the number, whose
ailments were apparently beyond all
human power to relieve, have already
been restored to health or greatly re-
lieved. Yesterday Father Mollinger
was Obliged to move from the sacristy
of the little church to the more com
modious school building adjoining. At
one time over 1000 patients were await
ing to receive the venerable fathers
blessings and whatever remedies he
should apply.
1t has been discovered that Adolph
Hepp, Father Mollinger's amanuensis
and interpreter, together with his
brothers, Frank and John, and Jacob
Hook, have for several days been extort-
ing fees from the afflicted, representing
that they had great influence with the
priest. BY this plan they have secured
several hundred dollars weekly. Father
Mollinger makes no charge whatever
for his services. His attention has been
directed to the actions of these young
men, and it will be stopped and the par
ticipants made to suffer.
Father Mollinger has been summoned
to Rome by the pope. He leaves on
Monday next. The purpose of the
special call is not known, but the knowl-
edge of his going has created consterna-
tion among his many patients.
