rHE PoPG,s REPupLIoANIsM.

Tho Vatican Satisfied With criSpps speech.
Itnly's Throne Trembling.
[CoJyright 1897, by the New York Associated Pres'l
ROME, Dec. 5.-M. Clemenceau, in the
OF the Frenchpolitical party of the
extreme Left, recently caused the pope
to be informed that if his party at
tanned Office the church would have
nothing to fear from them.
Emperor William short time ago
offered, through private agencies out
side the regular diplomatic channel, to
make concessions to the pope for the
Catholics in Germany, If his holiness
would influence the Centre party to
vote for the German army bill. The
pope refused to listen to approach, not
desiring to interrupt the friendly re-
lations with France and Russia.
The vatican is satisfied with a recent
speech made by Signor. Crispi, ex-prime
minister, revealing q spirit OF repu5-
licanism which may be taken as first
warning to the king. The speech was
an indication that the south does not
adhere strongly to monarchey, and that
the present situation bids finally to
lead to the triumph of republicanism.
The pope has said, "At time when
old Crispi is preparing for such a future
the monarchy must be very i'll"

to-day, when Representative Durbor-
row, Of Illinois, tho chairman Of the
committee on the Columbian Exposi-
ton, introduced in tho house joint
resolution making it the duty Of the
Worlds Columbian commission to
mako such rules or modification OF the
rules Of the corporation known as tho
Worlds Columbian Exposition, Us viii
prohibit the use on Sundays Of machin.
cry, unnecessary manual labor, and all
merchandising. and, at the same time,
give opportunity for the study OF the

In the house to-day Mr.. Bingham, OF
Pennsylvania, presented q petition OF
the bishops of the African NJ. Z. church
and OF tho African NJ. L. Zion church,
representing four million colored people,
in relation to an exhibit by colored
people at the Worlds Fair.
DANGER OF CHOLERA.
Postmaster General Wanamakes to-
day, in speaking about the danger
from an epidemic of cholera in this
country next year, said that, in his
opinion, the danger wac imminent and
nothing short of complete exclusion Of
immigrants for at least one year would
save US from the dreaded scourge. Mr..
Wanamaker thought, IN view OF the
fact that we have already spent about
S2O,000,0OO in preparation for the
Worlds Fair, VIC ought to take no
chances OF its failure by noglecting
every precautionary measure, including
complete exclusion OF immigrants. As
u result Of the investigations made last
session by congressional committees
into the necessity OF modifying the ex-
isting immigration laws, so as to re-
strict the number OF paupers and other
undesirable immigrants from foreign
countries who may enter the United
States, and OF the more recent inquiry
made in New York by Senator Chand-
lers special committee, the senator has
prepared bill suspending all lmmi-
grafton, except from North and South
America, for one year.

OMAHA, NEE, Dec. 5.-Jacob Gerber
is once moro in Omaha, having escaped
from the Siberian exile to which he
was doomed a year and hall. He ar
rived in this city last night after an
absence of twenty.one months. Alter
being a resident OF this city for six
years he returned to Russia TO dispose
OF what property he had there and
bring his family to this country. He
had taken out his first papers here, and
supposed that he was TO all intents and
purposes q citizen OF the United States,
but subsequent events proved that he
had relied too much on the privileges OF
half completed citizenship, ior he was
seized as soon as his identity was dis
covered. Then, though he was at the
time across the border in Germany and
at worship in church, without Il trial
or heariug OF any sort he was started TO
Siberia in spite Of all his friends could
do in his behalf.
When the friends of the unfortunate
man in this city heard oil what occurred
tho case was called to the attention OF
the authorities at Washington, but q
careful investigation disclosed. the fact
that the naturalization papers had not
been fully completed and that it would
be impossible for the government to Sc
cure the release OF the prisoner. The
appearance OF Gerber among his old ac-
quaintances last night created surprise.
His story was recital that was tall OF
outrageous cruelty and human suffer
ing. The evidence of the truth OF the
narrative were fully shown in the
frightful scars and still unhealed sores
in the living flesh. He supposed that
he was going to tho mines for life. 1t
was not until he reached his destina.
ton nine months later that he learned
that he was sentenced for fifteen years.
He finally succeeded in escaping and
reached here last night as stated.

CmcAGo, Dec. ga small fire broke
out in tho basement Of the Erring
women's Home last night, and in the
panic which followed among the in
mates twelve OF the sixty-seven girls
living in the institution escaped. The
fire was discovered by a man on the
street, who rushed in, threw open the
front doors and let loose a few lusty
yells that caused the girls to think that
they were about burned to death, and
they broke for the outer air. The FIRE
originated from tho boilers, and it is
now thought that it was part OF plot
to liberate the inmates.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 5.-The
beautiful, bright sunny day gave an ad-
ded attraction to that which usually
draws crowds to witness the opening Of
new session OF Congress. The
attendance OF senators was large, num-
bertng SONIC seventy. Among the ab'
sentees were Mr.. Kenpa, OF West Vir-
cinia, still confined to his house in this
city by illness; Mr.. Gibson, OF Louisiana,
dangerously i'll at Hot Springs, Ark.
Mr.. Colquitt, of Georgia, who has not
yet sufficiently recovered from his at
tack oil last summer to come to WASH
ington, and Messrs. Jones, OF Nevada,
and Allison, OF Iowa, who are in attend-
ance rs delegates to the silver conyen-
tion at Brussels. Neither OF the New

absent from his desk at the opening OF

illness.

Crvc1XxATI, Dec. 5.-The trial of Prof.
Henry Preserved Smith was resumed
by the Cincinnati Presbytery this morn
ing.
Prof. Smith said that the prosecution
having offered in evidence portions Of
his printed response and rejoinder to
the charges against him, he desired per-
mission to offer the entire document,
but the request was not granted.
The testimony for the prosecution
was then read to sustain the second and
third charges, which accuse Professor
Smith OF denying the inspiration OF the
writer's Of the scriptures to the extent
OF making the utterances free from
error, when interpreted in their natural
and intended sense; and Of denying
that the scriptures themselves define
inspiration, or as it is defined by the
confession OF faith. The reading was
taken from Professor Smiths pamphlet,
and from the scriptures. Elder Shields
and DR.. Lowe began the argument for
the prosecution. A vote may be reach
ed tomorrow.

FALL RIVER, MASS, Dec. 5.-speaking
of the Borden case tonight, Andrew j.
Jennings said he did not expect that
Miss Borden would be arraigned to-
morrow, as has been published. The
theory of the law is that when an ar
raignment for the commission OF cap
ital crime is made, defendant, besides
pleading, will also have a voice, saying
who shall be appointed to defend her.
The appointment is made by the pre-
siding Judge.
There is no doubt that in this case
Miss Borden will want Mr.. Jennings to
continue to act for her; consequently
Mr.. Jennings feels that when Mr.. Pills
bury shall determine the date OF the
arraignment he (Mr. Jennings) will by
courtesy be notified. Mr.. Jennings be-
lieves that an arraignment will be made
within two weeks at the latest

NEW YoRK, Dec. Sit is reliably re-
ported that the United States govern
ment will interfere with the scheme of
Cuba to farm out its customs revenues
to a French syndicate. 1t now appears
that Secretary of State Foster has sent
n Diplomatic note to the authorities at
HAVANA, warning them tho United
States is strongly opposed to their plan
OF farming out the Cuban custom house.
The action OF our government may
occasion an interesting and important
controversy, and il is not probable that
Spain will relinquish its plan of farm
ing out tho Cuban custom house at n
good figure without a struggle. The
profits to be obtained by such an ar
rangement would, it is said, be very
great.

NEW YoRK, Dec. 5.-President-elect
Cleveland returned from his hunting
expedition this morning. He had
scarcely finished his breakfast and be-
gun to look over the vast quantity OF
mail which had accumulated during his
absence when Mrs. Cleveland arrived.
He supposed her to be at Lakewood and
intended to go there in day or two
The very first thing Mrs. Cleveland did
after surveying the President-elects
very bronzed complexion and asking
him all about his trip, was to demand
that he return with her TO Lakewood
by the first train. Mrs. Cleveland
insisted that the ofEice-hunters and all
other matters could and must wait until
domestic affairs of far more importance
won, and within six hours after Mr..
Cleveland had entered his home he and
his wife were on the cars again bound
for the charming little winter resort in
New Jersey. Mrs. Cleveland had sew
eral matters for her husband to consider.
But, perhaps, that which influenced her
most was desire that Mr.. Cleveland
should inspect plans for improving the
cottage at Lakewood. which they will
occupy until they return to tho white
house in March
In order TO give abundant opportu.
nifty for reconstruction, Mrs. Cleveland
has arranged not to occupy the cottage
until after the holidays. Until Satur-
day next, when MIR. Cleveland must re-
turn here for the Reform club dinner,
he will probably remain at Lakewood
Soon after that Mrs. Cleveland intends
to make short trip to the west on a
visit to friends. There were numerous
callers at the Cleveland residence dur
ing the day, but the stereotyped answer

The Old Settlers Picnic,

Thursday last occurred the annual
reunion of the old settlers of Barton
county, at Dalziers grove, near Olaf
lin. The threatening weather kept
many people away, and the attendance
was small. About forty citizens of
Great Bend chartered special train
on the Missouri Pacific, and these peo-
pie formed the bulk of those present.
None of the speakers who were
expected from abroad showed up, and
the addresses were made by local tai
ent only. Messrs. D. A. Banta, Will
Osmond, D. N. Heller, N. E. Norris
''and others" made short talks. Mr..
land others" whom the people recog-
nized as the Hon. Morg., after being
urgently called upon-by his own
inclinations-of course made.a talk,
and then added insult to injury by
sending garbled Enisstatement of the
affair to the Hutchinson News.
1t was decided that the next meet
ing would be held some time in October
and it is presumed the aspirants for
Office will all be there.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing yearviz:
President, James Dalziel; vice presi-
dent, Frank Smith; CD. Montgomery,
secretary; A. S. Cooke, treasurer;
executive comm ittee, j. F. Strothman
John Lindas, VIM. Osmond, John
