LONDON, Nov. ia dispatch from
gence that the Chilean iunta is prepared
to surrender executive authority to the
newly organized congress. On the meet
ing of congress today. the junta addressed
that body In a formal message. In this
it sets forth the principles which had con-
trolled it 10 governing the country IN the
absence of the regularly constituted
authorities; it explained the present
situation of affairs. and said inasmuch as
congress was now prepared to assume
responsibility, the iunta would resign to
that body the functions 1t had beer exer-
cising. The ohief recommendation OF the
junta was an urgent plea that the congress
should at once institute measures looking
through the reorganization of the army
aud navy. The senate organized by
electing Senior Waldo SILVA as its presi-
dent
The chamber OF deputies elected as
their presiding officer Senior Barros Luca.
Seniors Silva and Luca, together with
Admiral Jorge Mont. the newly elected
president of the republic, were the men
who constituted the famous junta of the
congressionalists. Admiral Mont, who
was nominated a few DAYS ago by the
Liberals, the dominant party in Chile, as
a candidate for the presidency, and whose
nomination is equivalent to an election,
has been empowered to assume all the
duties of chiet executive OF the republic
until the meeting of the electoral college,
which will take place shortly, when Ad-
mIral Mont will be formally elected pres

The sensational arrest OF three Union
Pacific engineers in Omaha. an account
of which was exclusively printed in THE
LEADER yesterday morning, created a
decided stir not only among the railroad
men but citizens generally. How any
police force or set OF detectives gifted
with ordinary horse sense could have been
led into making such a supremacy ridicu-
lous bungle it is altogether impossible to
understand unless, indeed, a practical
Joker is at the bottom of it. The Omaha
s~leuthhounds have certainly made them
selves the laughing stock of the country,
and if the arrests should result in nothing
more serious they will have good reason
to congratulate themselves.

refer to it as what was said by Mr.. War

can complain on that score. But We
simply wish to state that it did not pur.
port to be either a full or accurate report,

The report of Senator Warren's lecture
occupied three columns of the Laramie
Boomerang. The report was written BY
a Republican. If it was incorrect the
best way to demonstrate it is by publish
ing a verbatim report Of the lecture in
the Sun and then draw a parallel show
ing wherein and precisely to what extent
the report of the Laramie Boomerang
was incorrect or CARRIED. The assertion
that it was CARRIED proves nothing and con-
vinces nobody. In our judgment the re-
port was manifestly correct and bore on
its face every evidence of being a faith

CHURCH AND sraTE FnANoE

 Commotion Caused in she Chamber of Deputies on a M otton for heir Separation-A Threatened Duel.
 PARIS, Dec. 1.-The ecclesiastical con- troversy caused great disturbance in the chamber of deputies to-day. NJ. Hubbard introduced a motion condemning the hos tile attitude of the clergy and demanding that steps be taken for the separation of church and state.
 M. Falliers, minister of justice and pub lie worship, in replying to the motion, commented at length upon the conduct of the archbishops of Aix and Bordeaux. In response to an interruption, M. Floquet, president of the chamber, said that Pope Plus TX had given his authority to Free Masonry and was himself Free Mason. M. de Casssgnac and NJ. Baudry d,Asson instantly jumped up and called NJ. Floquet liar. A tremendous uproar ensued, lasting fully ten minutes. The members of the right, shouting at the top of their voices, hurled various opprobious epithets at the members of the left who responded with equal vigor. Cries of infamous" abominable and the llh0 WcTo lEcciy DlSuOp pei shouted that M. Floquet's charge was a calumny and a islander. Comte de Nun cried that NJ. Floquet's words were insult ing and false. Throughout the uprosrious scene M. Floquet remained perfectly calm. When the clamor had subsided he simply remarked that the chair was powerless to deal with fits of madness.
 NJ. Fallieres, resuming his speech said that the government was opposed to the separation of church and state. The ministry, he continued, would shortly in troduce bill dealing with associations which would apply equally to religious and secular communities. He added how ever, that this bill must not be regarded ss prelude to the separation of church and state
 The debate was adjourned.
 It is reported that after the debate NJ. Floquet and M. de Cassagnsc appointed seconds, but that M. Clemenceau inter fered and succeeded in preventing the threatened duel
 It is the general opinion among mem bers of the chamber that to-morrow's de- bate may be critical as regards the exist ence of the cabinet owing to the dissatisfac- ton of the members of the right at the cabinets announcement of its intention to introduce bill dealing with religious as- sociations. The members of the right, it appears, are determined to do their utmost to procure 0 cabinet crisis

A Man Confesses to n Murder and
 Saves the Lives of Others.
 CoLUMBIA,S. O., Dec. 11.-A remarkable case came up in the supreme court yester- day, and as result the necks of the ten negroes under sentence of death in Lsu- rens county for the murder of Thornton Nance some months ago. will be saved.
 They were sentenced to be hanged on October 24 last but the attorneys appealed to the supreme court and the motion yes terday was to suspend the hearing and transfer it back to the circuit court. The ground of this motion was the confession of one of the negroes, Henry Suber, who was recently arrested, that he alone was the murderer of Nance. He says he.is not related to any of the con- demned men but feels that it is his duty to make known the facts in order that an innocent man may not suffer. He says further that any statement that other per sons were implicated is false.
 The supreme court decided in favor of the motion and sent the case back to the circuit court for re-hearing.

BAKER x co. ASSIGN.

Failure of Dry Goods Merchants in
 New York.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The dry goods trade were treated to a great surprise to- day when the failure of Francis Baker & Co.,, dry goods commission merchants at No. g Thomas street, was announced. The members of the firm, Francis Baker and his son, Wendell Baker, assigned without preferences to Lawyer Welcome s. Jarvis. Wendell Baker is the famous Harvard col lege runner. The firm handled white cot ton goods, principally sheetings and shirt muslins, all domestic. They had some very good accounts, the principal ones being the Harris Manufacturing company, Valley Falls company and the Rhode Island bleach and dye works, all of Providence, R. l.. and the Ballou mills of Norwich, Conn. The assignee says the liabilities amount to from $200, 1000 to s250, ,000, and there is probably a de- fciency of about $40, ,000. The books are in very good condition. The cause of fail ure was lack of funds. The business has been gradually decreasing, trade was very dull, prices low, and the margin of profit very small. The business had been run ming behind for years. MT. Jarvis could not say how the accounts with the various mills stood, but the mill did not do a guarantee business,

THE BUSINESS SITUATION.
Indication of a Large Volume o
 Business for the Holidays.

Business for the Holidays.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says, in part: As the holidays draw near all signs indicate large volume of busi- ness at the present, with growing conf dence of improvement in the fature except in parts of the south, where the unusual accumulation of cotton and it's low price have depressing influence. At the East there is again distinct though moderate improvement in leading branches of in dustry. At the west trade continues in volume never approached in any previous year, and even at the south, in spite of some embarrassment, the volume of trade is on the whole large, though not equal to last years. There is no lack of money in any quarter except at some southern points. Reports from all parts of the country show a very fair activity in l the distribution of merchandise. Holiday | goods are selling well at Boston. Shoe manufacturers are more busy and cotton staples firmer, though in other lines there is no material increase. In dry goods the retail trade is active. At Hartford wool if more active and the dry goods and grocery | trade fair, but hardware quiet.

NEITHER HOUSE IN SESSION.
Meeting of the Republican Caucus
 Committee.


 WASHINGTON, Dec 11.-Neither the senate nor the house was in session to-day. There were few signs of activity visible in the senate wing of the building. The republican caucus committee met at comparatively early hour and took up the thread of their deliberation at the point where it was dropped yesterday af- ternoon. Nearly all the republican sen- ators have been heard from individually upon the subject of their assignment to committees; but, as was inevitable from the first, the caucus committee has dis covered that in many cases it is not prac- ticable to accede to individual wishes, in l asmuch as several senators look forward to assignment to places on committees | where there are few or no vacancies. This condition of affairs calls for much tact and management on the part of the caucus 1 committee to avoid an appearance of un' l just discrimination, so that the progress I made up to the present time is not very marked, and it was said this afternoon by one of the committee that report ma! not be made to the senate until next Tues | day

HAMBURG, Dec. 11.-A sudden storm, amounting almost to hurricane, caused considerable loss of life and injury to ship ping here to-day. The gale came up with force that carried all before it. Vessels were unmoored, the ropes that held them being snapped like twigs, and they went driving before the furious wind. Several collisions occurred between vessels help less in the storm. On the Elbe three per sons were lost from ferryboat by the sud- den careening of the boat under the fury of the blast.
