gang of moonshiners, which has been

CARDINAL GIBBONS INDIGNANT.
Claims That the Catholics of the United
States Do Their Duty.

Claims That the Catholics of the United
States Do Their Duty.
BALTIMORE, June 2s.-Cardinal Gibbons
returned this afternoon from Washington,
City, where he officiated in the dedication
of st. Mary's cathedral. The cardinal took
occasion to refute the statements made to
the Holy See that the spiritual condition
and needs of foreign-speaking Catholics in
the United States were not properly pro-
vided for. He said, in part:
venture to say that the hierarchy of no coun-
try in the world is paying more attention to the
spiritual wants OF foreign-born Catholic people
than are the prelates in the United States They
are earnestly endeavoring to have the gospel
preached to them in their native tongue
ours before they are absorbed into
the great English speaking world
around them. Paris has long colony of Ger
man and English-speaking Catholics. Vienna
and Berlin also have large populations of French
and English and other nationalities. The city
of Rio, in Brazil counts also a large population
OF Catholics, who do not speak the Portuguese
language of the country, and yet within these
great centers, if l am correctly informed,
little or no provision is made for foreign Cath
| Ole population. With these facts before US, we
cannot view without establishment and indig-
| nation number of self-constituted and ofici-
| GUS gentlemen in Europe complaining of al.
legged inattention which is paid to the spiritual
| wants of foreign population and to means OF
| redress which they have thought proper to sub
nit to the holy see

tinctIy monarchistic, but in the meantime
legislative action will be limited to de-
mand for an alteration Of the scholastic
laws affecting religious teaching and to

will say: 1.-THE Mckinley tariff has
shut the door against foreign manu-

has done harm only, as it affects con-
sumers. Any discomfort in Europe is
quite out of place, coming, as it does, from
states which are either protectionists
themselves or inclined to protection"
Moreau proceeds to advocate an abaoga-
ton of the French decree against Ameri-

ITALIAN LEGISLATORS EXCITED
Wild Scene I'm the House OF Deputies
at Rome.

Wild Scene In the House OF Deputies
at Rome.
ROME, June 28.-There was another scene
of wild disorder in the chamber of deputies
when the foreign policy of the government
came up for consideration. After few
preliminary skirmishes Admiral Brin, ex-
minister of marine, who was speaking yes
terday when the sitting had been sus-
pended on account of the tumult in the
chamber, rose to proceed with his foreign
Interpolation, but he was met with such a
storm of Radical protests that he was only
able to repeat the text of the interpella-
ton.
Premier Rudini then arose and declared
in emphatic terms that the government
would adhere firmly and stolidly to the
dreibund, adding that Italy and Europe
might rest assured that these alliances
would be maintained, and European peace
would long be preserved. With this, the
whole house. with exception of the extreme
left, rose and cheered long and heartily.
After further chickering's, some depre-
catory illusions made by Martina, excited
the Radicals, who sprang from their seats,
gesticuiating violently, and drowning the
voice of the speaker with their shouts.
Cavalletto made q rush at Martina and
would have struck him but for the inter-
ference of friends, who parted the two men,
Every member stood shouting, disputing
and menacing in the widest manner. In
the midst of the confusion. Signor Sonning
threw bundle of papers in Signor Caval-
lotti's face, and the latter rushed to attack
Sonning. When friends interfered gen.
eral seuffie took place. only the min
listers remained in their seats, the whole
house seeming to be transformed into an
arena crowded with combatants. In the
scuffie several deputies were more or less
badly injured. Today's scene is UMPIRE
cedented in the history of the chamber of
deputies.
Finally the president, finding himself
unable TO pacify the members. abruptly
suspended the sitting. When the sitting
was resumed Cavalletto, Signor Boirs and
the president of the chamber appealed for
concord. and all three were enthusiastic
cally applauded by the house. Finally
the parliament was prorogued for the
summer. Opinion says here Rudini's
statement in the deputies today is inter-
preted to mean that the renewal of the
dreiebund is an accomplished fact.

Colorado,s Mineral Palace.

PUEBLO, Colo, June 2S.-The people of
Colorado have adopted a pleasant custom
of making their Fourth of July" celebra-
tons state affairs. Last year 1t was the
laying of the cornerstone of the capt.
toll building at Denver. This year the
event will be the opening of the Colorado
mineral palace at Pueblo. The state
officers, state militia and all military bands
of the state will attend, to find out just
how the people of the state stand upon the
silver question. A vote will be taken to
decide whether or not they favor free and
unlimited coinage of silver or prefer re-
striction of the product of the ore.

SEATTLE
Dry Goods Store
9O3 Second St.
Next to Corner of Marion,

Garry good line of dry goods, notions,
fancy goods, ladies and gents furnish
ing goods-in fact, an endless variety
of goods usually kept in a general
store. They were purchased by an
expert buyer; therefore the firm are
enabled to sell at such very low prices
that no one can compete with them.
Two or three firms, finding they could
not compete with the Seattle Dry
Goods store, have attempted a crusade
against the house by turning beggar,
something like the itinerant who sits
on the sidewalk with the hand organ,
having tallow candle and borrowed
baby to create the sympathy of the
passer-by to give alms. Some of them
are so inhuman that they employ
small children and put them to a
drudgery from an early hour in the
morning until 6 in the evening, and
by that means ask the support of the
customers who come into the house to
sign paper, or, in other words, give
them aims because they employ those
small children-and they need it
Shame on those merchants who will
stooP so low as to turn beggar and
ask for undeserved patronage and try
to pull the wool over the eyes of the
public by false pretense of being
humane when it is just the contrary /
We deem it inhuman to have BOYS
under rs work more than four hours
a day, and We also deem it a great
hardship on the men that small chill
dren should be employed to do the
heavy drudgery that men ought to do.
The Seattle Dry Goods store employs
no small children for the purpose of
creating sympathy, but employs grown
men to do the work and pays them a
reasonable salary, so they can afford
to send their children to school. And
we would not want a person in our
employ who would turn beggar. The
Seattle Dry Goods store does not beg
or ask aims, but put their goods
on the market at such a figure that
alone commands the respect of
the public. There are no flies on the
Seattle Dry Goods store. Remember
the place:

PROGRESS OF CHILEAN REVOLT.
The Army Not Discontinued Nor Sol
diers' Pay I'm Arrears.


WASHINGTON CRY, June 2S.-Pedro
Montt, who is on mission to this country
from the constitutional party in Chile, has
been informed by Senior Errazuriz, min
lister of foreign affairs, that the committee
of the government has appointed Louis
Peireiro its confidential agent at Buenos
Ayres. This is relative position to that
filled by Mont in the United States.
Montt still declines to say anything with
respect to his mission, but to an Asso-
ciated Press reporter tonight he said that
the official dispatch from Iquique con-
tanned denial of the truth of reports
from Santiago coming by way of London
to the effect that the revolt is making no
progress, that provisions are scarce and
the army discouraged. Mont said the
fact is that the occupation of Lobas island
by the Esmeralda is in itself proof that the
revolt is making progress. Provisions are
not scarce, he says, and the army being
composed of volunteers is not discon-
tented, nor is the pay of soldiers in ar
