Mr.. R. G. Beatty. of J. C. Beatty i Son. the
large clothing house of Ravenna. o.. is being
congratulated all around on the recent first fruits
of legal tree planted by him.
Mr.. Beatty was instrumental with others last
Fall in securing the passage by the city of an
ordinance which provides for license of $25 per
day for transient dealers; and under its provis-
ions. Messrs. Turner & Goodrich. Geneva (O.)
firm, who bought out W. L. Poe's clothing busi-
ness at Ravenna, were arrested on the twentieth
of last month.
The defendants thereupon made proposition.
that if the case were withdrawn. they would
leave town. as they did not care to stay where
they were not welcome. The case was accord
ingly dismissed. and the result was that the un-
welcome visitors took their goods. selves and ALL
and very quietly departed.
This result is one which Ravenna halls with
delight; and will be the means of stimulating
many laggard towns into further efforts for the
passage of similar ordinances.-[The Clothing
Gazette for August.

The 17th Annual Reunion of the Portage
Summit Pioneer Association was held at the

small, there was no abatetAent in the social en-
joyment and good cheer which have ever char
acterized these memorable occasions. About
1000 people met in the strong fellowship of
life's golden years, when the affairs of an en-
crossing materialsm are subordinated to the
higher considerations affecting the supreme in
terests of mankind.
General William H. Gibson was present. and
entertained his hearers long and well with his
grand oratory. His address was very able and
eloquent. Short addresses were also delivered
by Judge A. C. Voris, of Akron, and C. w.
Fuller, Esq. of Cleveland. The latter gentle
man spoke in place of Hon. H. C. Ranney,
who was unable to fill his appointment by rea

BARCELONA, Aug. 3.-Great excitement
was caused in this city last night by a
revolutionary movement of the Republi-
can party. A band of $50 men armed
with rifles and revolvers slyly approached
the barracks and attempted to surprise
the guards. it being their intention to
force their way into the barracks. The
sentries discovered the approach of the
men, whom they ordered to halt The
men made rush upon the sentries,
trusting that in the confusion which
would follow they could force their way
into the barracks. As they ran toward
the sentries they delivered a volley from
their weapons, and some of the guards fell
to the ground wounded. The sentries,
however, answered the volley with a fusi-
lade from their rifles. For short time a
regular battle was fought, and number
on both sides were wounded. In the mean
time the officers stationed at the barracks
summoned the troops to arms, and in a
very short time the attacking party was
surrounded and the whole party placed
under arrest. They will be tried by court
martial, and the chances are that they will
all be shot.
The persons arrested are federal repub-
licans.
PARIS, Aug. 3.-Senor Gorilla, the Span
ish republican, in an interview today de-
MED that he is in any way implicated in
the Barcelona affair. He said he would
do nothing without certainty of success.

the belief that the affair was a genuine
revolutionary attempt on the part of the
repuhIicans

ELECTION OF THE NEXT POPE.
Italy Wants the College Of Cardinals to
BE Held In Rome.

ROME, Aug. 3.-Where shall the next
conclave be held is the question now be-
ing discussed in governmental circles.
The church dignitaries are interested OBJ
servers. This question, it is believed, will
be the pivot of the policy both of
the Italian government and of the
Vatican, There is good authority
for the statement that the Italian govern
ment has sent explicit instructions to its
representatives abroad to prevent the con-
clave from being held away from Rome.
II breads above all things a foreign pope
and concIave away from the Eternal City.
All the italian confidential negotiations
with the great powers are believed to be
inspired with this dominating idea, that
Italy will respect and safeguard the
liberty of the conclave, and therefore the
nation should offer hospitality TO the
sacred college.
Should the cardinals decide TO hold the
conclaye elsewhere than at Rome, the rea-
son is manifest Should any change take
place the government would md itself
confronted with an entirely new situation.
This would be unknown, and the Italian
government fears the unknown. The re-

PARIS, Aug. 3.-A Tulon dispatch says
the Chilian cruiser President Pinto sailed
today for Genoa.
New YORK, Aug. 3-The following has
been received from Caldera, Chile, under
date of June 26: In the expectation
of a movement on the part of the
congressional warships Almirante, Coch-
rane and Magallanes against the govern
ment garrison at Coquimbo, Admiral
Brown has determined TO proceed from
Iquique to the southwark with his flagship
the San Francisco.
At Iquique there were rumors of the
desertion of some 800 men from Coquimbo.
1t was reported that these men had shot
tour of their officers, and upon the rest of
Balmaceda's troops being ordered to fire
upon them by the colonel in command he
was met with a refusal. The deserters
were reported TO be marching toward Cal
dera.
The Cochrane and Magallanes left
Iquique on June 20, conveying the trans
ports Amazone and Biobo. The destina-
ton of the vessels was said to be Coquim-
bo, but on June % the Biobo returned to
Iquique from Tocopilla, q port south of
Iquique, bringing 200 volunteers for the
congressional army.
The warship Esmeralda returned to
lquique on June % from her cruise as q
convoy TO the Itata. She saluted the ad-
miral's flag on the San Francisco, and her
officers paid visit to the flagship. In
conversation with the officers of the Es-
merelda it was learned that pursuant to
instructions the works and railroad
on the guano islands of Lobos, off the
coast of Peru, had been destroyed. This
action was caused by a desire to put an
end TO the source of revenue enjoyed by
Balmaceda.
Daily at Iquique the congressional army
is receiving acquisitions. The want of
warm clothing, arms and ammunition is
the sole reason for non-prosecu-
ton of the march southwark. There
is no lack of patriotism, and no shirking
of duty. Along the south coast, as far as
this point, which is the limit of the Con-
gressional party's occupation, there is
considerable sympathy with them. The
Junta has control of the funds. The week
ly customs receipts at Iquique alone are
over $3.50, 900, affording means for all re-
quirements.
Confirmation of the rumors prevalent at
Iquique relative to the Coquimbo uprising,
have reached Antofogasta. 1t was also
learned that Astaburagua, young lawyer
of Coquimbo, and friend of the con-
gressional party, had, after a heated dis
cussion, shot and killed the judge advocate
of the government troops. He was ex-
ecuted by an order of the colonel of the
forces in summary manner.
Admiral Brown has instituted inquiries
relative to the report he had received
about the imprisonment of some Ameri-
can citizens. Lieutenant Dyer ascer-
tanned that a naturalized citizen named
William Jones had killed two Chileans at
Tocopilla in October last. He was sent to
Antofogasta for trial, but owing to a
change in the judges and the absence of
judicial proceedings, his trial had not
taken place.

SNoHoMIsH, Aug. 3.-(Special. The Eve
tonight publishes some startling facts re-
garding the bestial acts of Father Quay,
the Catholic priest of this parish. The ex-
posure is backed by affidavits in posses
sion of the publishers, made by several of
the priests victims. charging him with
sodomy and other crimes against natures
The details of these affidavits are revolving
In the extreme. His victims, so far
as known, are eight in number,
most of them iliiterate mein-
bers of the Catholic church.
The method of the priest, who is large
and powerful man, was to lure the objects
OF his lust to his room, supply them with
liquor until they were rendered in a
measure helpless. and then accomplish his
heliish purpose. One of the victims claims
to have personally notified the bishop sew
eral weeks ago, but so far as known to the
Eye he has taken no action in the matter,
although it is stated that he will be here
on Thursday to investigate.
Many communicates who were aware
of the priests conduct are said to have re-
fused to attend services here, preferring to
go to Seattle TO confess. The vile prac-
tees of this priest have extended over a
period of nearly seven months, and even
since his crimes became generally known
he has had the brazen effrontery to exer-
else his priestly functions in the church
to congregations greatly reduced in num-
bers. Attempts were made 10 prevent the
publication of the facts in the local paperss
A former resident of st. Thomas, n. D..
reports that Father Quay was guilty of thu
same crime there. Quay left st. Thomas
about year ago. Catholics, Protestants
and non-sectarians are highly incensed
over the matter. and there is strong talk of
tar and feathers.

ROME, Aug. 3.-The interview between
President Harrison and Cardinal Gibbons
created interest here as an indication of
the Importance attached in America to
the Cahensly question. the pope, Cardi-
nal Slmeoni. and the chiefs Of the propa-
ganda have been much impressed with the
declarations of the president. The tributes
of the American press to the wisdom of
the pope's decision are also greatly ap-
preciated. The holy see sincerity regrets
that friends of Cahensly have spread re-
port that Rome placed obstacles in the
way of his scheme, From the first the
propaganda declared 10 Cahensly that the
holy see would never accede to the de-
mands for national bishops. Cardinal ST.
meoni and Monsignor Pecsico both assert
that the Cahensly scheme will never be
accepted by the propaganda. Never"
they declare, will it accord such pre-
rogative to emigrants Cahensly has CON-
mitted grave imprudenee. We can never
enter upon such course -

LONDON, Aug. 3.-The sentence of sus-
pension imposed upon Atkinson, member
OF the commons for Boston, for charging
the speaker with abuse of power, expired
today. Atkinson asked leave to make
motion 10 expunge from the journal
of the house the order of his ex-
pulsion. Hedeclared that he would rather
die than suffer the disgrace attached
TO his name by reason of the resolution
being spread upon the pages of the jour
nal. Goschen, chancellor of the ex-
chequer, advised Atkinson to let the
matter pass. Atkinson said he could not;
that he had been drummed ont of the
house as if he was not considered suffi- :
ciently respectable to remain within the
precincts of parliament. He must hear
the question of this odium debated. If
the house confirmed the disgrace put upon
him, he would resign his seat
