BEN All SCORES A POINT.
A Convict witness Badly Mixed Up by
Attorney Honse.

Attorney Honse.
NEW YORK, July There was one
startling scene in the trial Of Ameer Ben
Ali, the alleged Jack the Ripper, yester-
day The counsel for the defense scored
their best point since the beginning Of the
case. The point was brought out by Fred
b. House. Twoeonvicrs had been brought
over from the Queens county penitentiary
TO testify that they had seen knife in the
possession Of "Frenchy No. II during the
time he was confined in the Jamaica q. l. }
Jail
This knife they swore was similar to the
knife exhibited in court and used in the
butchery OF "Old Shakespeare One OF
the convicts was Edward Smith. When
Mr.. House cross-examined him he got a
bit confused The willy lawyer took adj
vantage Of his confusion
"Who asked you if you had seen the de
fendant have a knifef'
Mr. White, the keeper, did So" Smith
replied
"Did he show you picture Of the knit,
in newspaper before be spoke about it,
Identification
HE did,
Where was this defendant at that
timesn
He was in one Of the rooms upstairs.
Mr. House stopped short and looked al
the jury. They were eying the witness
keenly "You say he was in the room up
stairsf" said Mr.. House in a low but dis
tinct voice, as he leaned over the railing
and looked the witness in the eye.
"Yes, sir, again replied Smith.
Lawyer House sat down. 1t was fully
minute before the people in the court
room saw the full significance OF the wit
ness statement. At the time the cut o.
the knife was printed in the paperi
"Frenchy' was under arrest. He was
locked up in the Tombs. Smith eithei

OF INTEREST TO CATHOLICS.
Each Nationality Desires TO Have It's own
Bishops.


BERLIN, July 1.-The full text of the
second memorial presented by Herr Cah-
ensley to the papal secretary OF state, Car
dinal Rampolia, has been published II
the holy see can be induced to follow out
its recommendations and appoint large
number of German clergymen as bishops
in the United States, the German influence
across the Atlantic will be greatly in
creased. Here are some extracts from the
memorial.
1T is proved by statistics appended that
439 400 Catholics left Europe for America
during 1889. OF this number It's, 900 went
to the United States. Calculations based
| authoritative statistics 90 to show that
Catholic immigrants and their children
ought to constitute in the United States a
Catholic population OF 20 000, 900. But the
| fact Is that the number Of Catholics in that
vast country scarcely exceeds 100000.
| Catholicity, therefore, has up to the pres
| ent date sustained net loss of 16000,00O
in the great American republic.
"The following are the chief causes Of
desertion on the part OF the Catholics;
"The lack Of sufficient protection for the
| immigrants during their voyage and on
| their arrival IN America; the insufiiciency
| OF priests and parishes Of their ogn for the
| different nationaltties; the pecuniary sac
rifces, often exorbitant, exacted of the
faithful; the public schools; the insult.
cheney of societies, Catholic and national
associations Of mutual aid, protection, etc,
for the laboring classes; the want OF diff
ferent representatives Of the different ma
tionalities Of immigrants in the episoo
pate"
The memorial discusses at length these
various causes Of the diminution of Cath
olics, and then says:
1T is desired that concord and harmony
should reign among the different nations
that 90 to make up the church Of the
United States. The only way to attain
this end Is to give to every one Of thes'
nations bishops Of their own, bishops be
longing to each, who viii represent theii
respective nations in the episcopal body
just as those nations are represented
among the paroehial clergy and among
the faithful
The memorial argues that the appoint
ment Of bishops for the different nation
would bring them closer to the holy see
and thereby help the growth of TIN

BERLIN, July 1.-Several cases of death
from absolute want among the poorer
classes have been covered up by the au-
thorities here as being entirely attributable
TO disease. There is a systematic effort on
the part Of the authorities to minimize the
misery that prevails owing TO the high
price of bread. Nearly every wage earn

the kaiser is losing much of the popularity
which he earned by his advocacy Of labor
reform. The socialists are taking advan-
