JEALOUS OF THE POPE.

known to be an intimate friend of the
Pope and one of his advisers, said that
the Vatican is convinced that the late dis
orders at Rome precipitated by French
pilgrims were really instigated by the
Italian Government, which has become
jealous of the growing influence of the
Pope and the amicable relations which
exist between France and the Vatican.
The Cardinal declared that the Italian
Government would prefer the assassina-

assassination unless I capitulate before

said that the Pope would never accept the
present situation,. but nothing has vet
been decided upon in the matter of his
leaving Rome. The conclave is abroad
and many Of the Cardinals have hitherto
been reluctant to act in this matter. But
they have greatly modified their views
since these French pilgrim disorders.
The latter may have the gravest conse-
quences for Italy and the Vatican and
the general situation, and perhaps seri-
ously alter the relations between all the
European Powers and the Vatican. 1t is

out for the purpose of writing UP and
illustrating a midnight ride on q fast

came without warning, and as the loco
motive plunged from the track the four
men were caught and completely buried
beneath the wreck.
President Saul, of the Chicago and
Eastern Illinois road, started with a
special train for the scene of the wreck
as soon as notified. Medical aid accom-
panied the President, and everything
possible was done for the injured.
The engine and baggage car were COM

WHISKY AND JEALOUSY.
Cause of an Awful Early Morning
Tragedy at Denver.

DENVER Coll, Oct. 15.-Whisky and
jealousy were the causes of an awful
tragedy early this morning. The notori-
Gus jim Connors and Mike Ryan were
drinking in a saloon after midnight and
Connors being teased by his friends over
the fact that his mistress, Mrs. Dalcaff.
had deserted him for c. J. Finnicum, be-
came SO enraged that he took Ryan, and
going to Mrs. Dalcaff's rooms, broke
open the door and found her with Fin
nicum. Finnicum was ordered to dress,
after which he was knocked down, bound
and gagged, then carried to a window
and thrown into the alley, three stories
below. His jaw was broken, both eyes
knocked out and his shull laid open till
the brain was exposed He died in
short time. Connor and Ryan were ar
rested. The prominence of the offenders
make the case unusually interesting.
Ryan until lately was one of the officers
in the fire department, but is now under
bonds for drugging and robbing a man.
Connors was First Lieutenant of the
Police, but is now under bonds for trial
for attempting to hold up and rob the
Rio Grande express train three years
ago.
