Associated Press Dispatches.
PARIS, April ia pastoral letter
from the archbishops and bishops of the
province of Mines was read in the
churches of that province today. Re-
ferring to the pope's recent encyclical
the pastoral says: "Some good Catho-
lies were shocked to find his holiness
was enjoining the faithful to accept the
republic. The attitude OF the holy see
solely implied respect for and Difference
to the powers that be. The pope ex-
pressly declares that respect be OBJ
served only as long as required by the
exigencies of the common veal. The
duty of submission ceases when the
right to command it ceases"
Regarding the concordat, the pastoral
says: "It is the duty of Catholics to
speak, write and act against laws that
strike at their beliefs and the interests
of the faith. They will most effectively
fulfil this duty, by electing men who re-
Regarding education the pastoral de-
clares that religion has been suppressed
and that practical atheism has taken it's
place, destroying faith and morality.

WYOMING EXCITEMENT
THE HUSTLERS' TROUBLE FAR
FROM SETTLED.
Great classification with the Governor
Orders-RanchersA Afraid That JUS
tice VIII Be Cheated.

CHEYENNE, April 17.-Great anxiety
is felt here by the friends of the i'm
prisoned stockmen and by the state
authorities over the situation in John
son county. The orders OF Governor
Barber, directing that the captured
stockmen at Fort Mckinney be brought
to Douglas, and the order to Sheriff
Angus to turn over the four
prisoners he holds to the military
authorities, served to arouse intense
excitement throughout Northern Wyo-
ming, the small ranchmen believing the
invaders were to be spirited out of the
reach of the county authorities, and by
legal juggling escape trial and punish
ment for killing Ray and Cham
pion. The governor has disclaimed
any intention of aiding the pris-
oners to escape punishment, and
says that they will be turned over to
the civil authorities as soon as the ade-
quate protection due all the prisoners
can be given. The wires are down
since the orders to have the prisoners
brought to Douglass were sent, and
word of the governors intention to
ultimately turn the prisoners over to
the civil authorities, has not reached
Northern Wyoming, and the latest in
formation from there was that the
ranchmen were arming and congregat.
ing at Buffalo, with the evident iEten-
tion of preventing the prisoners from
being taken out of the county.
If they can be convinced that
the stockmen will be dealt with &C.
cording to the law, it is generally
believed they will disperse to their
homes and no violence will be offered
the captives. If they become convinced
that the stockmen are to escape legal
punishment serious trouble is probable,
and will result in the county being
placed under martial law.

Working Woman Attacks the Worlds
Fair Management.
CHICAGO, April 17.-Mrs. Charlotte
Smith, president of the Women's Ma
tional Industrial League of America, in
an address before the Waverly Hall So
cialists, today, attacked the worlds
fair management in general, and the
board of lady managers in partic-
ular, complaining that the working
women were not represented on the
board, and pleading for the recognition
of white women, red women, and black
women, and protesting against further
loans or appropriations for the
exposition, unless there be a
woman's industrial department and
q colored woman's department
that the working women be recognized
on the board of lady managers; that
the working classes be better repre-
sented; that better wages be paid the
laborers on the buildings and grounds
and that broader policy in sectarian
matters be followed.

THE SILVER QUESTION.
WHITE METAL MEN DETERMINED
TO FORCE THE ISSUE.
Both Political Parties to Be Put on
RecOrd-A Denver Papers Startling
Plan of Campaign.

PrTTsBURa, April 17.-General A. ].
Warner, the Ohio representative on the
executive committee of the National
Silver association, who is in the city
today, says it is intended to put the
silver question thoroughly before both
national conventions, and compel the
parties to define their position.
DENVER, April 1.-THE Rocky Noun
tain News in a leading editorial tomor-
row will put forward silver Democratic
plan of campaign to be followed should
Cleveland or an equally pro-
nounced gold bug be nominated.
1t says There are thousands of
Republicans in Colorado who will not
vote for Harrison, and thousands who
will not vote for Cleveland. Yet driven
from their own parties by the nominees
wearing the yoke of Wall street, will be
disinclined to vote for the nominee OF
the Omaha convention, who, though
sound on silver. will also represent go
MANY issues, that good judgment cannot
assent to them. Therefore let the Dem
ocrats in a state convention, if the
action at Chicago shall force iG, NOM
mate electors pledged to vote against
Cleveland and for such free coinage
Democrat as Senator Morgan of Ala
bama, or Congressman Bland of Mis-
souri,
The News urges that this course shall
be pursued by the Democrats of Colo
RADIO, California, Montana, Wyoming,
Iowa, Nevada, Washington and Oregon
also by those of Kansas, Nebraska and
certain southern states. By this course
the integrity of the Democratic organi-
cations will be preserved and the elec-
ton for president thrown into the house,
in which event free coinage candidate
would ultimately be elected, and the
free coinage sentimentproduced by such
a canvass would insure the election of
free coinage congress.
The course of the Cleveland contin-
gent in New York is urged as ample war
rant for this irregularity.
The article closes as follows: "This
is dernier resort for the free coinage
men, worthy of calm and earnest con-
sideration. That this suggestion be
passed over lightly, the gravity OF the
silver situation forbids. The tens of
thousands who signed the pledge of the
silver league. did it for some such practi-
cal plan by which they may constitution
ally and consistently exercise their suff-
RACES effectively in cause so important,
is demons trated by their acts. The
movement, If undertaken, will demon
strate that Democrats and Republicans
are no longer hewers of wood and draw
ers of water for the Wall street pluto
Gratis, who now almost entirely
dominate one political party and have
paralyzed the free coinage majority in
the Others"

The Baron Did Not Leave Washington
of His Own VOlition.
WASHINGTON. April 17.-F. A. Fava,
jr., son of Baron Fava, speaking of the
report that his father had been ordered
back to Washington, said he was satis-
fed the baron would come back. Pro-
fessor Fava regrets the criticism of his
fathers action in leaving Washington
by the press of America, saying the ac-
ton was at the order of his government,
and against his will. The professor
further says the Italians are jubilant
over the settlement of the misunder-
standing, and thinks Italy will make an
exhibit at the worlds fair.

Commit Suicide.
CHICAGO. April 17.-Caspar easel and
William Spania, two German laborers,
entered into an agreement, Saturday, to
commit suicide. As proof of the serious
ness of their intention, Casel's dead body
now lies IN the morgue, he having been
found in bed with bullet hole in his
right temple and revolver in his hand !;
and Spania is suffering from wounds
inflicted in an unsuccessful attempt to
cut his throat. When taken to the
station, he begged the officers to shoot
him. He said he had trouble
with his wife, and easel was depressed
over the death of his father, and they
made solemn agreement to commit
suicide together. They bough ht revolver
and arranged that easel should shoot
Spania, then kill himself. Afterwards
they decided that each should take his
own life. Spania will probably recover.

FIFTY-sECoND CONGRESS.

The Present Week Promises to Be of But

WASHINGTON, April 17.-It is probable
that the weeks congressional business
will be of but passing interest. In the
senate the appropriation bills will be
pushed, and it is possible Chinese ex-
clusion may come up.
In the house the Noyes vs. Rockwell
election contest and appropriation bills
will be the principal subjects of inter
est. The former will probably come up
Tuesday and be followed by the naval,
sundry civil, and consular and diplo'
matte appropriation bills.

Killing OF SQUIRRELS.

The following novel plan of ridding
farms of squirrels is being tried in por-
tions of Asotin county, Wash. Several
burrows are plowed in the field nearest
where the squirrels are thickest, and at
a distance of about every thirty or forty
feet holes to depth of about twenty in
ches are sunk with posthole digger.
The squirrels, it is asserted, will take
possession Of the burrows as play
ground, and while running after one an
other will tumble into these holes, from
which they cannot emerge, but die.
SeEeral farmers who have tried it say it
works admirably. .-Asotin wash Sen

Montana Miners Threaten an

The Imprisoned Strikers to Be Taken to
Boise City and Tried for
Contempt OF Federal
Authority.
Nv the Associated Press. !

WALLACE, Idaho, July ia report
to the effect that miners were coming
from Montana, armed and resolved to
assist the union miners in the Ceur
d'Alene district. has caused movement
of troops by General Carlin, to check
any such attempt. General Carlin and
staff, with three companies of infantry,
arrived here at IL a. m. Colonel Pages
command has been under arms and
ready to move at moments notice.
Saltese, Montana, is the objective
point of the invading miners. Captain
Bubb, with three companies, marched
to the summit last night from Gem and
holds the trail leading from Saltese. The
leader of this movement is Breen, who
is president of the Butte union. Requi-
sition papers have been sent to the gov
ernor of Montana, and it is probable that
he will soon be under arrest. He is and
has been the leading agitator in the Ceur
d'Alene trouble.
Martial law may yet have to be de-
clared in Montana as the theater of the
operations of the troops will continue to
be along the border line of that state.
1t is thought General Carlin will be per-
fectly able to cope with any armed body
of men who may be deluded into enter
ing on an invasion.
BOISE, Idaho, July 19.-Warrants for
the arrest of the leaders in the Ceur
d'Alene riots were issued this afternoon.
The prisoners will probably be brought

court. The bill dividing the state
into divisions removes all
business to the division in which it

ness would go to Moscow. If it should
be transferred, and it is the general
opinion that it will be necessary, q
special term of the United States circuit

Large numbers of ducks are being
caught in the rapids and carried over
Niagara falls. They are either killed or
so shocked that hunters in boats below
the falls easily secure them" Com
menting on this, Mr.. John B. Sage writes:
81 have heard nothing Of it, but you may
be sure that it's mistake. don't be-
lieve duck was ever carried over the
falls, unless he was wounded so that he
couldn't fly. It is, however, common
occurrence for ducks and other birds to
fly up the river from Lake Ontario on
foggy nights and fly right into the falls,
and thus be killed or injured so that
they are picked up in the river, and this
is probably how the story originated. -
