CIIBAN BRIGANOS

HAVANA, Feb. l7-It appears now that
the brigands who, in the death of their
famous leader, Artero Garcia. were sup
posed to have been entirely eXterminated,
are not yet suppressed, as within a few
days two Of these outlaws made their ap-
pearence at the abandoned sugar estate,
La Imbua, in the municipality Of Las
MSngas. Meeting one of the owners they
demanded his money or his life, one of the
robbers taking Elm by the throat and the
other threatening him with his sword and
revolver, and saying if be did not promise
to send them y large sum of money they
would kill him at once The victim, ap-
pSrently acceding 10 their demands was

hands threatening the owner. drew his
sword and ordered them 10 leave. on

FRENCH Trade INJURED.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE report of the
British legation in Paris on the trade of
France, made public today. attributes the
large increase in the importations of raw
materials and the great shrinkage in the
exports partly to the effects of the Ameri-
can Mckinley bill. The report quotes from
NJ Lands, great authority in the wine
trade. declaring that the Mckinley bill has
caused decrease in the exports of wine to
the United States. but expressing the hope
that France aud the United States will
come TO terms regarding a commercial ar
rangement.
The report shows that French trade has
been declining for years and that the re-
cent decline isHnot entirely due to the Nc
kinley bill.
Referring to the French silk, wooden and
leather exports to the United States, the
report says that in silks alone France lost
$4,000, 900 francs in 169, as compared with
1890.
The exports of woolen goods during 1891
fell to l,649, 900 kilos, as against 1885, 900
kilos the year preceding.
The value of the gloves exported in 1890
was s, 100000 francs; in 1891 these exports
showed decline of / l,S25, 600, the value in
the latter year being 6,575. 600 francs.

GREEK FANATICS,

ATHENS, Feb. 1.-THE Protestant church
at the Pir8us, which was pillaged and
partly burned by a faDatical mob on Sun
day last, was built with money subscribed
by Englishmen and Americans, but the
ministers connected with it are Greeks
The mob not only wrought havoc in the
sacred edifice itself, but they attacked the
parsonage and wrecked it. Everything in
the residence of the ministers was de-
troyed
The British Foreign Bible society OF
which the chief minister is an agent, in
tends TO claim compensation for the ont
rage from the Greek government. Many
OF the rioters were masked but no atten-
ton was paid to this, as it was day OF
carnival. After the congregation and the
ministers were driven from the church
everything portable was removed from the
building. The benches, chairs, stools,
cushions and everything else that could be
carried were taken to the snuare in front
of the church, saturated with petroleum
and then set on fire.
Several members of the congregation fed
in fear of their lives and took refuge in the
British consulate. They were pursued to
the very doors 10y fanatics, who, when
they saw their intended prey had escaped
their clutches, vainiy demanded that Mr..
DuDuls, the British consul, surrender
them. But the mob hung around until
dark in the expectation that some of the
Prostestants would leave the consulate and
attempt to make their way to their homes.
There Is scarcely a doubt that had they
fallen into the hands of the mob they
would have been killed, tor more blood
thirsty crowd of religious fanatics is not
believed to have been gathered in Greece in
many years.

POI OIYGAMOuS SAINTS.

BOISE, Ida, Feb. 17-C. j. Bassett,
deputy revenue collector at Blackfoot, Ida. &,
and one of the most prominent men in this
portion of the state. says that the impress
sion that the Mormons in Idaho nave
abandoned polygamy is an erroneous one.
1t is in the southeastern portion of the
state that the Mormons live and thrive,
and there Mr.. Bassett resides. He says
that in RoXburg, Woodruff, Lewisville
and in other towns in the Snake River
valley the Mormons still cohabit with two
and three wives, and that during the past
fortnigh the has seen the infants Of second
and third wives at their Mormon mothers
breasts. No stronger proof of the existence
of polygamous practices could be offered.
Mr. Bassett's mother and father were
Mormons, and lie has had rare chance to
witness the working of the inner circle of
the Church of the Latter-Day Saints of
Jesus Christ. He says that the public
avowals of the Mormon bishops and elders
that the church has abandoned polygamy
are hollow Shams

a GREAT ICE GORGE.

PITTsBURG, Feb. 1.-THE ice gorge at
Parker City is still Intact, and the great
est alarm prevails There are series Of
gorges between Brady's Bend and short
distance above Parker The efforts to
blow it up with dynamite were fruitless.
Superintendent Price says that it is the
worst ice gorge that he has seen in the
Allegheny river since 1874. The river bed
is apparently packed solid with layers of
ice for nearly twenty miles. At Goose
Bar, the head of the gorge, the ice is piled
nineteen feet high, aud extends up the
river In a solid mass. There is possibility
that the gorge will form such a solid mass
as to shut off the water Of the channel al
together II it do so, Parker and other
towns along the river will be submerged

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. L. - An address
fvill be issued tomorrow by the executive
Committee of the Pennsylvania Republican
association, an organization whose object
is to prevent NJ s Quay's reelection to
the United States senate, ana to secure the
choice of some able and loyal Republican
as his successor The movement, it is
said, is separate and distinct from that
which was Intellectually launched against
Quay last fall and proceeds from prom
inent business, professional and working
men, who uniformly support the Repub-
lican party. but who have taken no active
part in politics.
The address, which will be issued to the
Republican voters of Pennsylvania, says
that the best interests of the Republican
party demand Quay's retirement from the
senate at the expiration of bis term; that
he should be succeed by loyal Republi-
can who possesses the qualities necessary
for the proper fultillment of the
duties Of that high and responsible
position, and that point has been reached
which, unless prompt action is taken in
the Republican party TO deprive Quay of
further capacity for disastrous leadership.
the party iu this state will utterly fail TO
achieve its true mission and will sooner or
later meet with final overthrow.

that dispatch published in the SUM-. as
from ST Louis: that the archbishop had
adopted all the suggestions of the COM
mittee, omiting all reference to the tenn
poral power aud education.
Another point reveals the animus OF
Archbishop Ireland's action. He moved
that the name be changed from Catholic
Congress to Social Congress- This was
the point fought for by them in Boston.
The motion did not prevail. 1t is still to
be styled the Catholic congress, though
all the Catholic part has been left out:
Yours ever,
lSigned. "E f. DUNE"
DETROIT, Feb. IN. w. O'Brien of
this city, one of the committee of arrange
ments OF the Catholic congress, denies all
the charges made by f. +. Dunno of Ohio,
with the exception of the change of the
personnel of the committe as originally
constituted. He even denies that Dunno
was present at the assem- blage of the arch
bishops in St Louis on Dec. l. He further
stated that the committee worked in mar
mony, and that there was no intention OF
change in the program as originally
agreed upon.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 11.-Rev. Father Phelan,
editor of the Western Watchman, Cath
olic journal, said to an Associated Press
representative today, relative to the
Dunno letter:
The clergy are opposed to the disc ion
by laymen OF the temporal power OF of
education in an officicial Catholic body,
for the reason that these utterances would
be taken as the official voice
of the church. That should be
confined to those high enough in the
church TO speak on matters of its policy.
Everyone in the Catholic church has the
freedom of individual opinion, but no one
has the right to say whether the pope
should be restored to the temporal power.
That is for the pope to say, and, when
said it is the duty of the clergy to work
for it.
This letter has created some sensation,
but it is of a cheap kind, and 1t looks much
like the letter was sent to Rome to convey
to the Vatican the impression that because
the discussion of the temporal power and
education is objected to by the archbishop,
the hierarchy of this country opposes the
temporal power.n
