WON BY THE COALITION,
The Liberals and Socialists fn Brussels Cal
ried Everything.

The Liberals and Socialists fn Brussels Car
ried Everything.
According to the estimate of the Inde-
pendente Beige after the necessary reballots
are taken the Belgian senate will consist
of fortysix cericais and thirty liberals, and the
chamber of deputies of eighty-eight ,,ericals
and sixty-four liberals. Liberal papers claim
that the result in Brussels will effectually pre-
vent a conservative majority Of two thirds.
which is necessary for effecting revision Of the
constitution.
Catholic papers are elated over the success of
the clerical candidates in the provinces. They
condemn the coalition Of socialists and liberals
in Brussels as ssvoring Of immortality.
The London Times commenting upon the
elections held on Tuesday in Belgium remarks
that las no revision of the constitution
is possible without the sanction Of two-thirds Of
both chambers the whole proceedings are likely
to be futile unless a conjunction Of groups
shall create a majority in favor Of universal suf
frage without checks, which the king and the
ablest statesmen desire.
This non-decisive result is due entirely to
the defeat of clericals and conservatives in
Brussels. In other parts Of the country both
sides held their own. The action Of the liberal
sections in Brussels settling their differences on
the basis Of the demand for universal suffrage
resulted in their securing eighteen seats in the
chamber Of deputies, where previously they
held only three. The situation presents grave
elements of instability.
"What the socialists think Of the victory in
Brussels may be inferred from their marching
the streets and singing the 'Marssillaase' when
the result Of the election there ives announced.
The immediate result would seem 10 strengthen
the influence of the extremists.
The elections we're for members of the senate
and chamber Of deputies, who, sitting together
~ q constituent assembly, would decide upon
the changes to be made In the constitution

FATHER MOLLINGEK's DEATH
Invalid. Ignorant Of Il still Arriving In A


The body Of Father Mollinger was taken TO
the chapel OF the Church Of the Most Holy
Name in Pittsburg yesterday, where il will lie
in state until Saturday morning at O'Clock.
when it will be laid away forever in the Gene
terry OF the church.
The death Of Father Molliager has not be-
come known abroad Vet, and there IRE scores Of
people from all parts Of the country arriving
to receive the blessing and be tr,. Ted by him.
One party of four ladies arrived yesterday from
Ohio. another came from Philadelphia and still
third from away out in Kansas. The look Of
disappointment and distress pictured on their
faces when they learned that Father MoIinger
was dead was truly pitiabls.
Father Dabgeizer. friend Of the dead priest,
said that no matter who succeeds Father Mol
linger there will be no more healing unless they
are genuine faith cures. Father Mollinger Was
a regular registered physician. who knew how
TO prescribe for all the ills incident 20 the
human race. One reason OF his great Dealing
power that patients followed his directions
faithfully and hopefully. No one thought Of
disobeying his instructions, even though they
suffered great priyations in carrying out his
mandates.
There is much interest in the estate of the
dead priest Ii is believed that he left n will.
but it could not be found yesterday. His attor-
hihtte tuhl Tue Nlut Vi ulb trlAte uar Dctu
underestimate. He will not state what il is
worth nor what the provisions Of the wall are.
II became known. however, that Father MVliin-
ger had received large share OF the estates Of
an uncle after he disinherited by his father.
These are in Holland and are said 10 be worth
not less than 300 900. His property in the
United States is estimated to be worth $500 900
more.
Bishop Phelan last night said: There had
been trouble between Father Mollinger and the
Catholic church. This trouble Was even carried
to Rome.
II delivered the altimatum of our church to
Father Mollinger. II that he might 20 and
cure hundreds, even thousands. but that il must
be by faith and the holy relics alone. The
church at Rome expressly forbid Father Mol
linSer to use medicines. and. under pain Of
accommodation. be 10 refrain from writ
ing medical prescriptions for his patients.
Father Mollinger ignored these orders en-
tirely and went on in his own way. A n result
refused to dedicate and bless HE chapel,
vet he held services there contrary TO all prece-
dent and wishes Of the pope.
No, i do not know what becomes Of his mil
lions, though understand that his executor.
Gregor Meyer, is on his way home from San
Francisco. and will be able to lind the will
Bishop Phelan said he would probably attend
the funeral, though he not called upon 20
do Father Moilinger still q priest in
the Catholic church, and all honors Of the
church would be paid him.
