Prof. Joseph Jastrow and other men,

Lyman P. Powell secretary of the extern

The similar conference Of last year
was the most important in the history
of this movement, and was attended by
delegates from more than half hundred
of our leading colleges and by those
interested in university extension from
more than twenty states Not Only was
the meeting itself a thorough success,
but the proceedings of the conference
printed by the secretary, attracted wide
attention and was recognized both in

MILLION a MONTH.
That Amount Goes Into The World

That Amount Goes Into The Worlds
EaIf Grounds.
Chicago, Dec 17.-AIore money has
already been paid out III creating the
Worlds fair than the directors thought
would be necessary to complete it when
congress voted to send the exposition
to Chicago Ten Million dollars was
thought to be the limit then.
Auditor Ackerman'S report, issued
yesterday, shows that the expenditures
TO Dec. / have been ST., 46O, 235. I'll.
The receipts have been $13, 229, 451 80.
The available balance on hand Dec. 1
was S636.O6S. So about enough to last
two weeks 1T the present rate of eX-
pendlture. But souvenir coins, upon
which it is hoped to realize S1O,OOO,UOO,
are coming soon, and the directors have
nearly S2,OO0OOO yet in exposition bonds
which no cash has been received.
The story OF the Worlds fair is poorly
told in figures. The millions OF dollols
to produce it, the almost bOundleSS area
of the buildings and the incredible rec
ord of material and labor consumed and
the time required in their construction
convey but Il faint idea of the magni-
tude of the exposition.
The growth of the exposition city is
marvellous and surpasSes in brilliancy
of conception, holiness of execution and
rapid construction anything ever befre
attempted. While Chicago was only
required to furnish S5,O00,000 in the
form of Il popular subscription, the sum
of 5000, $50 has been pledged, and
from these pledges S., 433, 9S9.40 has III
ready been realized.
The S5,0O0000 in bonds pledged by
the city of Chicago has been paid, and
the last of that magnificent donation
was expended by the directors several
months ago. OF the issue of 1000
600 Worlds fair bonds s., 125,0 900 has
been converted into cash, and most Of
the proceeds poured with n princely
hand into Jackson park
1t Is worthy of remark In noting the
receipts of the Exposition company
that Sill. 1G2 has already been received
in gate receipts which means that since
last May nearly 100000 people have
paid to get in the grounds and observe
the wonderful growth of the white city.
Thousands of visitors went in on passes
In addition to those left their coin at
the turnStileS.
The announcement six months ago
that money would be paid out from that
dat to the opening Of the Exposition at
the rate Of $1,OOO,OO0 month was dis

New Russian Law Compelling Many
Them to Move Again.
ST.. PETERSBURG, Dec. 1.-THE Rus
sian Senate has promulgated law re-
curing that Jewish artisans shall only
reside in places where official boards
of trade exist, the pretense being that
the Jews can thus be kept more eff
supervision. Official boards of trade
exist only in about ten per cent. of the
towns in Russia. The decree there
fore means vast addition to the
misery and oppression under which
the Russian Jews already labor. Many
thousands of Jewish artisans will be
compelled to remove from the town in
which they are located. The objectof
the new law is believed to be to
start the Jews to stirring again
and drive them over the frontier
whether other countries are willing to
receive them or not The partial en-
barge on immigration to America had
caused a cessation of the rush of Rus
sian Jews to the frontier and the Rus
sian authorities, who are anxious to
get rid of the Jews without absolutely
bayoneting them across the border.

IRELAND ACCUSED.
Said 10 be Trying to Create
Public Seat iInent in
His Favor.
ST, Louis Editor Replies to the
Archblshop's Recent
Interview.


st. Louis, Dec. 17.-Conde r. Pallert
editor of Church Progress, was asked
today to make reply to all interview
with Archbishop Ireland, published this
morning. He SAID:
NMgH Ireland is attempting to
create public opinion in his own favor
His whole interview is nothing more
than an appeal to the secular public
opinion Of the country. How the
liberals can imagine that secular Opiu-
ion will i'll any way become the govern
ing factor is beyond the conception of
any Catholic acquainted with the con-
StitutiOn OF the church and preCeptS of
Catholic doctrine.
II am perfectly well aware of the
legitimate sphere Of the civil functions
of the government, and because ;he
church insists that Catholic education
shall not be tainted with the poison of
sc culiarism, that implies no antagonism
either to the proper right of the state
or is it hostile to the spirit of American
Institutions.
Notwithstanding Archbishop Ire
lands statement that Mgr. SatClli is
vested with plenipOtentiary powers to
settle the school question, we have no
evidence to that effect. On tie contrary
both Archbishop Katzer and Archbishop
Elder public declared that Mgr. Satolli
had no such powers and, moreover, the
fact that the archbishops in the recent
conference refused to subscribe to Mgr.
SatC'lis views, is very clear evidence
that those views We're not supported
by the weight of the pope's authority.
Il they had been, the archbishops
could scarcely have point blank reject
ed them. They might have deferred
the consideration of them under that
suppositiOn, but they would have not
so emphatically declared the doctrine
so opposite and repugnant to them
when they drew up school resolutions
Teatfirming absolute and unqualified
adherence to the principles and plat
form of the council of Baltimore.
archbishop Ireland's statement that
to the church belongs religious instiuc-
ton only and to the state the right Of
secular education, apart from religious
training, in radical opposition to the
council of Baltimore and to the repeated
public teachings of Leo on the sub
ject. Archbishop Ireland is the only
one in the entire conference who is
ready to subscribe to Mgr SatOlli's
school propositions. If we leave Arch
bishop IrGland's own dissenting views
out of consideration we may say that
the American hierarchy are unanimous
on the school question. We may also
admit that the controversy is virtually
closed. The unanimous agreement Of
the hierarchy, always excepting him
self, makes it very evident that the
Faribault plan or any other scheme to
separate religious from secular cduca-
ton is Numerically opposed to the con-
yictiOns of the hierarchy in the United
States.

went to Homestead to poison uon-union
men in the mills. As to the selection
of the poison the witness said:
Beatty suggested croton oil, and I
said no that was dangerous. ard Demp-
sey said he knew of powders which
would be better. Dempsey said he
used the powders i'll Chicago and he
had broken a strike in four days. 1t
was not dangerous Dempsey said. Ho
also said he would guarantee us $50
each and our expenses. We got no

To Hold n Pow Wow,

the Republican from Durango, Colo,
says: From Navajo sub-chief, who
came in from the reservation, it was
learned that in six days there would be
a gathering of the tribes at Round
Rock, near Chees store, for the purpose
of holding a grand pow-wow. Black
Hawk and other chiefs will be present
and the talk will be on the methods,
adoped by the present agent to compel
them to send their children to school.
The result of the pow-wow is matter
of conjecture, but unless the younger
men of the tribes can be restrained
there will be trouble.

CORNWALL Ont, Dec. Johannes
Slavin, alias Mcmahon, was executed
here this morning at 7:45 for the muir
der of Consta bic j. r. Pavey on Sept
S. Slavin, who was a tough OF the
worst variety, mad shot young man
named Antoine Lafess at a dance.
He fed and was met by Con-
stable Davey, who attempted
to arrest him with the assist
ance of man named Lewis
Letevre. The latter caught Slavin and
wniie holding him was shot in the left
shoulder. Slavin then broke away
only to be seized by Davey. He
pointed his revolver straight at the
cOnstable's breast and fired, the bullet
passing through the officers body,
killing him instantly. Slavin was
captured by the crowd and narrowly
escaped lynching. His trial took
place on Oct 10, when he was con-

and Lefevre both recovered from their
wounds
