LUCERNE MEMORIAL.
Catholics in Germany Resent
American Criticisms.
Cahensley Explains the Object
of the Document.
A Second Memorial Prepared
and Distributed.

BERLIN, June 13.-The adverse Ameri-
can criticisms of the society Of st. Raphael
and of the now famous Lucerne memorial
are strongly resented by the Roman
Catholics in Germany. Cahensley, whose
name is at the fore in this matter, was in
terViewed today on the subject. He said
the society does not pursue any special
German policy, but, on the contrary, is
composed of prominent Roman Catholics
who belong to many of the principal ma
tons of Europe. He went on to say,
however, that the Irish IN America
try to obtain for themselves all
the bishoprics possible. I'VE do
not" he said, wish to interfere
with the conduct of the Catholic church
in America, nor in American politics. All
we desire is to have the German, the
Slav, the Italian, etc, under the care of
a priest Of his own nationality. This will
not prevent him from becoming a good
American # he remains true to the faith,
instea1 of becoming a pupil of the
Socialists and Anarchists. Continuing,
Cahensly said: we acknowledge the
good work done by the Irish in the
HtTNlCt VI tue tluECu III hluGIlCd. DuL we
also wish to protect the interests OF the
German aud other Catholic emigrants. "
From another source an Associated
Press correspondent obtained a view of a
secoed memorial which has been dis
trlbuted to all the cardinals in support of
Cahensly's scheme. This second memoir
ial was drafted and printed with the great
est secrecy. 1t r~ecapitulates the arQu-
ments and statements Of the other me-
mortal to the pope aud asserts that the
great loss in the numter of the faithful in
America is due to the absence of Catholic
schools. 1t also quotes a statement as
coming from the Catholic Nelcs of New
York City, to the effect that 100, 900
Catholic children are lost to the faith
each year in New York alone. 1t also as
serts that the Irish priests IN America are
averse to parochial schools and that they
do not found them in every place where
it is possible to found them. 1t says for
eign Catholics are forced to pay for the
privilege of entry into the Catholic church
and continues arguing in favor of the
idea of nationalizing the Catholic bishops
in the United States. asserting that the
adoption of the project would increase
the influence of the holy see and augment
Peters pence.

BERLIN. June l3.-Undaunted by the
overwhelming majority which supported
Chancellor Won Uaprivi on the cereal du
ties question, members of the Fr~esinnige
party, at a mass meeting, decided to pros
ecute more vigorously thau ever the anti
grain duties law agitation. Figures pub
lished by the Liberal press showing that
the stores OF cereals in Germany were
nearly exhausted elected Official statistics
given in today issue OF the Reichs ARzeiger,
which aim to prove that the grain harvest
OF 1890 was not short, but, on the con-
trary, was better than 1889. being equal
to the average harvest of the last ten
years. The figures are admittedly based
on rolgh computations. They show that
the crop of 1890 yielded 2,S39. 600 tons
of wheat and 5,S77, 900 tons Of rye,
against 2,472,43 tons of wheat aud
1868. APO tons OF rye in the prece ling
year and an average of > 400 900 tons OF
wheat and 4,7O2. OOl tons OF rye in the
past decade. The potato crop of 1890
amounted to q $40. uUO tons against an an
nual average of %. SS4. 900 tons for the
past ten years. A ton in these statistics
signifies 900 Kilograms or 1877 pounds.
Allowing thar the figures of the RelchSt
Anzeiger are accurate, the fact remains
That the high price OF bread presses heav-
lily upon the working classes. The
declaration of Chancellor Won Caprivi that
the crops in Germany are in better condi-
ton than generally supposed has been

next week, when the Liberal members
will carry the agitation into the country

SALT LAKE, June l3.-The Republi-

resolutions hat a division by the loyal men

be a fatal mistake. as it would place the
rule Of the territory in the hands of the
Mormon church; would speedily result in
giving statehood to the territory, and the
state would be under the control of the
Mormon theocracy; that Utah is not yet
prepared to accept statehood because the
majority of her people still maintain al
l~egiance to the church; that the material
and political interests OF Utah ~imperatIvely
demand the united action of the loyal Deo-
pie until there shall be absolute and I'm

colored man, was arrested on suspicion.
After his examination today in which the
evidence was damaging, he was bound
over and sent back to jail. Within an
hour hundreds of people surrounded the
Jail. Prominent men of the city
spoke, begging the excited people
to dispense and let the law take its
course, but they were Missed down.
Finally one man obtained an AK and told
the crowd to follow. In an instant the
jail door was broken down and Clark
dragged out. He was carried to Lind

to a limb of the first tree. While the
lynehing was going on, there came nearly

It subject of club gossip or tea-taDIe

should add one drop to the cup OF bit
terness that had been placed at his

of all of us which we would wish to
have buried in oblivion-the thought

iealousies of old age; who is there that

sode in his life he would not have eX-
plunged, forgotten or cOndoned?-
We had turned into restaurant Tor
a bit of dinner, and those thoughts
passed through my mind as we ate our
fish. My companion pondered sadly
for a few seconds, and then, shaking
himself together as though to throw off
an unpleasant train of thought, said:
''Now, tell me about yourself, your
wife and family"

what might be the result of my dis

81 have no wife"
He looked intensely surprised, as he
said: ''My dear fellow, I am very sorry.
I never heard He paused, inquir-
ingly, and again 1 blurted out:
II never had one"
A look of extreme pain spread over
his face as he heard this. He leaned
across the table, and laying his hand on
mine, said, with infinite sympathy: 81
see it all; ought not to have asked you.
Forgive me, old fellow, and forget that
Ihave said these words"

been gradually dawning upon my mind,
that had never set eyes upon my host
before that day, and that 1 had been
carried away by some inexplicable
chance resemblance to some remote &C

cordial recognition of myself. There
was no blinking the facts, however.
Everybody that he mentioned was

and wild desire to avoid exposure or
