MARTIAL LAW PROCLAIMED.
The Militia Regime at Homestead
Very Severe.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 14.-For the
first time in it's history this thriving
town is to-day under the severe rules
and regulations of martial law. This
was declared officially in the borough
by the commanders of the militia at an
early hour this morning. The military
regime Is as severe as in the midst of
actual warfare, and is very obnoxious to
the citizens. Travel of pedestrians is
impeded and passports only are issued
when the demand becomes esrecially
stringent. The populace are making
the best of their embarrassment, how
ever, and no outbreak is reported. The
congressional investigation closes to-
night in all probability.

NEW York, May 13.-While the full text
Of the Vatican deliyerence on the Faribault

that the gist of the decision is entirely in

Gliding against Archbishop Ireland. You

Baltimore concerning parochial schools ex-
plicitly declares that wherever possible ev-

gress made toward an international mon
tary conference and accept it as an earnest

say, however, in order to make the confer
ence Of any advantage, the president must
appoint men friendly to silver as delegates

posed toinsist that the delegates shall rep

held in the United States, but believe thev

not gold bugs" either openly or in dis
guise. The appointment of men bitterly
opposed to the coinage Of silver
under any conditions would the
silver men say, make the
monetary conference farce and deprive it
Of any usefulness. They hope the presi-
dent will seek to give additional weight
and popular support to the conference, BY
sending the names of American delegates
to the senate for confirmation. They ad-
NIT he can ask gentlemen to serve, without
asking the approval of the senate, but be-
'lleye it would be more in harmony with
the spirit of our institutions, and would
strengthen the delegates and conference, if
it were known the delegates appeared with
the sanction of the senate. IF the names
of men Of moderate views are sent to the
senate, silver men say there will be no op-
position to their confirmation.
