turned loose.n The Dowlings let him go.

CATHOLICS AND THE INDIANS.
Bishop Kahn of Wheeling Goes for
Commissioner Morgan.

WHEELING, w. VA, July 22.-The
IntelIigencer of this city will tomorrow
morning print letter from Rt Rev. John
Kain, bishop OF Wheeling. Bishop
Kain says, regarding the pending
trouble between Commissioner of Indian
Affairs Morgan and the Catholic Indian
bureau that it is mistake to say that the
controversy is between the commissioner
and the bureau and therefore does not
necessarily touch the schools under Catholic
control. He says that the question at issue
does touch vitally the interests Of our
Catholic Indian schools. From his very lu-
duction into office Commissioner Morgan
has shown his anti-Catholio bigotry.
APPOINTED A PROTESTANT.
Whom did he appoint as inspector of Ino
dian schools but Protestant minister, Rev.
DR.. Dorchester, whose first official act was
the removal of several Catholic teachers
because of their religion. As member of
the board for the distribution of the funds
annually collected in our country for In
dian missions, | am in a position to know
that Commissioner Morgan has dealt
most unjustly toward our Indian schools.
But a few months ago the board had a most
urgent appeal from the archbiShopof Santa
Fe in behalf of one of his Indian schools
which would have to be closed unless we
could grant it some immediate assistance, as
Commissioner Morgan refused to allow the
usual appropriation for its support.
WANTS TO SECURE THE SYSTEM.
Commissioner Morgan would like 10
secularze the whole system, the scheme
the government has refused to indorse. If
the administration continues to sustain the
bigotry of Commissioner Morgan and Rev.
Dorchester it may regret its course when
the Catholic votes are heard from next
fall year." The threat contained in the
closing paragraph, in view Of the large
Catholic support given the republican ticket
in 1883, particularly in Bishop Kain's dio-

PITTSBURGH. Pa, June 1.-The sem
sational trials of the six young min
listers of the Reformed Presbyterian
church ended to-day, and the synod, by
a vote of 95 to 81, expelled five of them

them, in an informal way, the right
hand of fellowship.

One of the Captive Germans Will Have to

BERLIN, June ia peculiar story of
domestic trouble in the family of a
we'll known banker of this city has
been revealed as consequence Of the
recent capture of party of tourists by
Turkish brigands. When the news Of
the daring outrage by banditti was first
published it was accompanied by de-
tails of the agonizing grief displayed
by Nine. Graeger, who was in Adrian
ople, over the fate of her husband, who
was one of the prisoners. 1t so hap
pened that Herr Graeger had left his
real wife in Berlin when he started on
his eastern journey, and she read with
much surprise the story of the grief OF
the woman who was known to the au-
thorities of Adrianople as the wife OF
the imprisoned tourist. She discovered
that her husband had been joined at
Pesth by handsome young lady whom
he introduced as his wife. Herr Graeger
is now on his way home, having been
released along with his fellow unfor-
tunates in consideration of a large ram
som. He will receive a warm welcome.

IN BAD opoR.

The Gambling and Other Bad Habits OF the
Prince Of wales Raising . Storm In En-
gland.
LONDON, June 1a-The storm rising
around the prince Of Wales is fast OBJ
tanning intensity, endangering his
chances of succession to the throne, if
not the existence Of the English mon
archy. None appear to be stirred so
deeply as the great middle class, the
real strength of the country, and hith-
erto q solid and stolid prop Of the mon
archy. Wherever its voice becomes
audible its earnest denunciatiOns of the
prince of Wales are accompanied by
regrets at his nearness to the throne.
Representative gatherings of religious
bodies - Congregational, Methodist
Baptist, Unitarian and Presbyterian
have already recorded their condemna-
ton. Boards of guardians are going
out of their accustomed paths to discuss
motions branding the gambling pro-
pensities of the prince of Wales as a
disgrace to the country. Several lib
eral societies have adopted resolutions
against his continuance in the army.
The agitation has every character of
permanence. It has not yet touched
more than fringe of the political par
ties, but ere long the glowing tones of
the people must penetrate the core of
politics, causing party action within
and without parliament
The radical members of the house of
commons are opening the attack upon
the prince of Wales. but they have
been warned that Mr.. Gladstone re-
sents the movement and that the lead
ears of the opposition will actively
show their repugnance to associating
liberalism with an agitation tending to
cast disgrace upon the crown.
Conferences have been held at the
war Office, attended by Mr.. Stanhope,
the duke of Cambridge. the duke of
Connaught Gen. Redvers Butler and
Col Tracey, and it is reported that they
decided that the prince of Wales, Gen.
Williams and Lieut. Levett had COM
mitted no offense agrinst military law,
but only technical breach of the reg
ulations. Mr.. Stanhope, therefore,
basing Mondays response to the ques-
tons on the decision of the conference,
will probably declare that the COM
mander in chief will deal with the case
privately without regard to regulations.
1t is understood the prince of Wales
is keenly stung at the adverse criti-
cisms which have been showered upon
him from all quarters. Especially is
this the case in regard to the newspa-
per comments which practically accuse
him of revealing the secret of the Tran
by Croft scandal and referring to the
fact that he was not asked if he had
spoken of the affair to nybody after
Sir William Gordon Cumming signed
the discriminating document, while this
question was put to all the other wit
nesses for the defendants. He emphat-
ically denies that he divulged the secret
to anybody.
