A Garment Exhibited With Whicf
Miracles Have Been Performed.

TRIER, Aug. 1.-The Holy Coat of
Trier, the garment supposed to have
been worn by the Saviour, will be ex-
hibited at the cathedral here for six
weeks, commencing August 18th. Fully
two millions of pilgrims are expected
to visit Trier during that time. An
earnest and long controversy has been
waged regarding the genuinencss of the
relic.
Chaplain Dasbach, member of the
Prussian Diet, and one of the commit
tee for the exhibition of the holy robe.
thinks that there can be no possible
doubt as to its genuineness. II has been
exhibited only twice during this CEN
tury-in 1910 and 1874. Many miracles
are claimed to have been performed hy
this robe, and it is said to still possess
great merit.
The relic is said to have been given as
present to the bishopric of Trier by ST.
Helen, the mother of Emperor Constan
tin upon the latter's conversion to Chris
tianity. The robe itself is tunic about
five long, cut narrow at the shoulders
and gradually widening towards the
knees. II is woven out of one piece
without any seam whatever.
The material IS supposed to have been
linen, but its great age prevents any ex.
act examination. 1t is enclosed in an
outer casing of purple and gold cloth
supposed to have been added some time
in the seventh century in order to pre-.
serve the relic. During the exhibition
extra trains will be run daily to Triel
from Coblenz and Cologne.

Spectators to KNOCK DOWN STOCKS Try
to Create a Report of Revolution--They
Attack n Barracks and Exchange Shots
MAY all be Put to Death.
BARCELONA, Aug. 3.-Great excite
ment was caused in this city last night
by what was for time believed to be a
revolutionary movement on the part of
the Republican party, but which sub
sequently proved to be a desperate at
tempt upon the part of certain specu
lators on the Bourse to bring about
decline in the prices of the securities
dealt upon the exchange. For
foolhardy daring the scheme has
never been equaled by desperate
spectators in this or any other country.
The troops, who garrison this city, were
in their barracks, and the usual guards
were patroling their posts, when band
of 10 men, some of whom were armed
with rifles, while others carried re-
volvers in their hands, cautiously ap-
preached the buildings and attempted to
effect a surprise of the guards, it being
their intention to force their way into
the barracks.
The sentries were vigilant, however,
and soon discovered the approach OF
the men, tne BuuTuS Oruereu tne uhHu "
halt and give the countersign. To dc
the latter was of course an impossi
bility and the men made rush upon
the sentries, trusting that in the con
| fusion which would follow they would
be able to force their way into the
barracks. AS they ran toward the SEN
tries they delivered volley from theil
weapons and some Of the guards fell tt
the ground, having been struck by th'
bullets of the aggressors, The othe
sentinels, however, stood their grounC
and answered the volley from the at
tackers with fusillade from their rifles
For short time a regular battle wa
fought and number on both side
We're wounded. In the meantime, tn
officers stationed at the barracks sum
moned the troops to arms, and in yer
short time the attacking party foun
themselves surrounded. Resistance wa
useless and the whole party was place
under arrest. They will be tried b
court martial, and the chances are the
, they will all be shot.
