CARDINAL GIBBONS
Stands a Very Good Chance of Bdng
the Next Pope.
AN ITALIAN LIBERAL WRITER
Opposes Him Because With Him IS POPs the CAurcs
Would No Longer Be Roman-Ihrs
Wsuld Be No National PrCu-
dicss Against Hin.

ROME, October 2S-A recent article
from the pen OF Signor Cesare, In one
OF the principal Liberal organs, has
made some stir in ecclesiastical circles.
Signor Cesare, who is a Liberal writer
of some note and who has made special
study Of ecclesiastical questions, con-
tends that Austria, in the name OF the
Triple Alliance, ought TO dominate the
future Concsve and procure the cleo
ton of Pope anenable 10 the Triple
Alliance.
But the point OF interest TO Ameri-
cans in the articles is the vigorous oppo-
sItion to the candidsture OF Cardinal
Gibbons for the succession to the Papal
Chair. Among other things Signor
Cesare declares that under Cardinal Glib
bons the church would cease TO be
"Roman." This attack on Cardinal
Gibbons is regarded at the Vatican as
the expression OF the fear OF The Lib
erals that Cardinal Gibbons might oe
elected at the next conclaye.
The article will, however, have little
effect, as the Cardinal is very popular
here, and especially since the knights
of Labor" incident. The NauonSl
rivalries and jeslousies which might
prevent the unanimous election ot an
European pope would not operat" in
| Cardinal Gibbons case. So his chances
OF election are considered good.

THE ANDOvER CASE.
The Decree of the Board of visitors Set
Aside by the Supreme Court.

The Decree of the Board of visitors Set
Aside by the Supreme Court.
BOsToN, MASS, October 2S.-The de-
cree Of the Board OF Visitors has been
set aside in the famous Andover case.
This decision of the Supreme Court is
on the ground that the Trustees are not
made parties 10 the original proceed
ingS. The merits Of the case are not
passed upon.
The decision means a victory for Prof.
Egbert +. Smyth and doubtless ends a
struggle that has been before the public
for over five years. The decision Of the
Board of Visitors now set aside was rem
dered in June, 1887, and was to the ei-
feet that "Rev. Egbert Z. Smyth, d.
d., Professor Of Ecclesiastical History
in the Theological Institution in Phil
lips Academy in Andover be expelled
from his chair on account of het-
erodoxy in teaching 'as such pro-
feSsOr' doctrines contrary TO the
creed Of the institution especially re-
specting the inspiration Of the Holy
Scriptures and a probation after death
for some souls that have not had the
gospel in this life.
An appeal was promptly taken to the
Supreme Court OF the State in accord
anCe with a provision made by the
founders Of the Seminary, and a compli-
Gated, hOtly contested ana world famous
series of legal battles went on, culmi-
mating in the final hearing before the
fuli bench last November.

Hamilton. Immediately upon entering,
he struck a match TO find lantern, and
almost instantly the building was In
flames, the match having ignited gas
that had collected in the barn from d
we'll near by.
There were four valuable horses In
the barn and all of them, together win
hay and feed, were destroyed. Mr.
GRAY aud Mr.. Hamilton were ootn pad
" burned trying TO rescue the horses.
Near the barn was an sO0-6arrel tank
half full of oil, belonging TO BLOCK BROS

tipguished by the use of blankets. IL
was only by the most heroic efforts that
this tank was saved from burning. HAD

would have ended. Near it were four
one-hundred barrel tanks belonging 10
Block Bros, and all full, and q well
producing forty barrels an hour. From
these tanks the lines OF tanks run In AL

count OF the proceedings OF that body.

He attributes this TO the intellectual,
