Late Hour.
New York, Dec. 30.-The steamer Man
hansett arrived this morning from Bristol
and reports that Dec. 26 she spoke the
steamer Umbria lying to with sea anchors
out, repairing her shaft. She expected to
finish the repairs the next day and wished
to be reported all we'll. The place where
the Umbria was sighted was about 240 miles
east of Halifax.
Capt. Duck. of the M%anhanset, went to
the Cunard line Office to tell the reassuring
news to the American agents of the line,
and this is way the captain told the story:
1.-The weather WAS very hazy at the time,
and it was not possible to see any distance
ahead. We were within two miles of the
Umbria before We caught sight of her. The
Umbria was lying to, with her sea anchors
out to keep her we'll into the wind. She
WAS drifting with the sea, and on that ac-
count was quiet and easy. No canya was
up. The steamship was drifting eastward
at the rate of a mile an hour | spoke the
ship end asked if any assistance was
needed, ard the reply was no. A shaft was
work would be completed by next Tuesday.
l remained by the Umbria from 1:30 to $3.50
O'Clock p. nj.
'''Shortly after leaving her I passed the
CunRrd steamship from Boston. bound
east. She would pass directly by the point
where l saw her sister ship. l should think
that she ought to be here some time to-
morrow. if all goes we'll. and the repairs
were COMPLETED as expected"
The UmbriR was sighted at q late hour
tonight.

A PapaI Letter In the Language or the
Pcopie-Democratio Era at the
Vatican.

ROME, Dec. 30.-The holy father ia greatly
incensed at the opposition displayed
against Mgr. Satolli and his peaceful and
moderate solution of the school question in
the United States. Speaking recently to
one of his %confdants tho pope is reported to
have said: ''They (Satolli's opponents)
want to force the holy see to retreat, but
the pope will not be repulsed. In a docu-
ment which is now being prepared at the
vatican. the prudence and wisdom which
Mgr. Satolli displayed in his proposition
for the solution Of the school question are
spoken of with praise. The fact that the
holy see has addressed an enoyclioal to the
Italian people in the popular tongue has
caused much more comment than the docu-
ment itself. II is the first time
the pope. departing from ancient
usagsa, has addressed himself directly to
the people. This step 10 regarded by close
observers as fresh testimony of the more
and more pronounced democratic, modern
and social oharaoter of tho change in the

Judge speer sustains Labor Unions.

MACON, Ga. Dec. 30.-Judge Emery
Speer. of the United States court. rendered
a decision yesterday in the case of the
striking photographers on the Central rail
road against the receiver. Judge Speer
said that the fact that a man was a member
of u labor organization was nc reason for
his discharge. On the motion of the
strikers asking the court to reinstate them
in their positions, Judge Speer decided
in their favor SO far as to order the
receiver TO replace all the men except where
their positions had been filled. In one sense
this is a complete victory for the labor or
CARNATIONS, inasmuch as it establishes the
precedent that a laborsr cannot be dis
cha, ged for the sole reason that he has al
lied himself to labor unions. Judge Speer
stated that there had been very in%consider-
ate action on both sides. The case against
Hagga,d and Heppinestall for contempt
was postponed until after the holidays.

STOCKHOLM, Dec. 30.-The famine in

scriptions of last year for the aid of the
starving Finlanders. Although the famine
is raging IN Russian territory yet the Firms.

Sweden. look to the Swedes rather than to
the Russians for assistance. The emigra-
ton Of Firms is receiving a great i'm
pulse on account of the famine, chiefly
among the agricultural classes, who
were unable. owing to tho scarcity of corn
last year, to provide anything for the win
ter. Many villages are snowbound and it
is feared that whole communities have per-
ished. as nothing has been heard from them
for a number of days. Owing to the hardi-
ness of the Firms it is hoped, however, that
the famine has not been 30 destructive of
life as many appie hend. 1t is believed that
the survivors will abandon the country by
wholesale during the coming spring and
summer and remove to some part of North
America, where they will have o better
chance to maintain themselves.
