lunatic asylum is about out Two-thirds
OF the main building is destroyed and the
other badly damaged. The new wing just
completed is notn iiured. The loss is about
S25O,OOO. Only one patient is known TO
have been burned. Several narrow escapes
are reported.
The fire was started by D. j. Brown, an
inmate who recently escaped and was only
returned yesterday. When recaptured he
told his attendants it would be worse for
MIN and them if he was again confined.
his threat was soon put into execution.
he himself was unable to escape from the
building and was burned to death, the only
victim OF his own insane deed. Six hun
dred inmates of the building, most
OF whom were asleep when the fire broke
out, were all safely removed from the
building TO the wings. After performing
this extraordinary feat, Superin tendent
Mitchell, just up from a sick bed, stag
gered and fell under the fearful ordeal
through which he had just passed. AS
sistant holland, steward, also succumbed.
Fireman O'Donnel stayed at his post,

CATHOLIC CONGRESS
The Programme for the One at

Complaints Against Archbishops Ireland

ton Of the Cahensley Scheme

ROME, Feb. 16.-At the Catholic confer
ence IN Baltimore in 1889, committee of
prelates and laymen was appointed TO make
arrangements for Catholic congress to be
held in connection with the Worlds Col
umoian exposition and charged with pre-
pairing programme Among the laymen
was Judge E. Z. Dunno, of Ohio. Under
date of December 10, Dunno wrote per-
sonal letter TO Editor Allen, of the
th1Tch Progress and Catholic Ford, of St
Louis, giving his views in regard TO GER
tain decisions of this committee. This let
ter IN some way came into the hands of
hev. Q. kaufman, who sympathized with
the views expressed therein, had the letter
put in print, and sent copies to all the car
dinsls. The letter was received in Rome
few days ago, and created considerable of
sensation in ecclesiastical circles.
kaufman prefaces DUNES letter with a
statement over his own name to the effect
That the decisions reached by the American
Pre!ates were displeasing to himself
Fallen, Dunno and many other Catholics
are invoking Rome to override these deci-
SONS. Dunno, in his le ter, reviews the
work of the committee arranging the pro-
gramme, etc, and says it was making har-
M0nlops progress until in an iuauspicious
moment 1t was decided to submit it's de-
clslons for the approval of the archbishops
and bishops who should be assembled at St.
Louis December l last. In the proposed
programme Dunno asserted as questions of
vital Importance the temporal power
aud the question of Catholic educa-
lion. The archbishops, who were presided
over by Cardinal Gibbons, changed
the whole plan and took the congress in to
thelr own hands, recognizing laymen as
auxllaries only. Dunno criticises this as
an usurpation Of authority. He complains
chiefly against Archbishops Ireland, Will
mans ana teeuan; asserts that Onahan. of
chicago, and O'Brien, of Detroit. aban-
doned their fellow laymen and played into
Joe hands OF the prelstes. Early in
Decemoer, says Dunno, meeting was held
NJ Judge OBrien's chambers in New York.
Tor the purpose OF making public pro
test, but it was decided nothing should be
SAID. Dunno says he has read in the
papers that the programme would be
devoted solely to social questions.
The sending of the correspondence to
Rome is regarded as continuation of the
Cahensly movement Since last year hun
oreds OF documents have been circulated
in Rome declaring the Catholic church
would die II the process of Americsuizing
II, IN which Cardinal Gibbons and Arch
bishops ireland and Williams are leaders,
IS allowed TO proceed. Meanwhile the au-
tnoritles at the vatican deny that the cues
uon OF temporal power and Catholic educa.
ton are to be omitted from the programme.
