IDENTITY was to prevent a Wholesale slaughter Of
human lives. The building fronting on H
street is an old one and dangerously over
loaded. On the second floor tons Of type are
kept and hundreds of men employed The
third floor. which is the bindery. has
two rows Of heavy machinery and stand
ing presses from one end to the other These
machines are in motion from a. m. to D. m :,
except an hour in the afternoon. On the fourth
floor there is heavy machinery also. think il
the honorable gentlemen who opposed the bill
for the erection of new printing Office we're
on any of these floors while the machinery is in
motion their teeth would chatter The floors
could never keep up the enormous weight and
stand the jar Of the machinery had it no. been

Lieut.. Reynolds was killed by being run over
by a cable car. Now the authorities are shap-
ing regulations OF some kind to compel the
company to use more care so that these acci-
dents won't occur. but their action is too late 20
far as the lieutenant is concerned. Will the
Senate also be too late with it's legislation in
favor of a new building2 Must innocent blood

Tho Rev. Fathers Treacy Stand ON The
Appeal to Rome.

The Rev. Fathers Treacy Stand ON Their
Appeal to Rome.
The Rev. VIM. P. Treacy and the Rev. p. A.
Treacy Of Swedesborough, n. j., have sent the
following dispatch to Mgr. Satolh and Bishop
O'Farrell:
I'VE dare you to violate our appeal to Rome. -
=, The reverend fathers assign these grounds for
their action:
First-Because Mgr. Satolli has forfeited his
right OF deciding without appeal by having
sn6delegated his authority in the case to Bishop
O'Farrell.
Second-Because the Rev. P. A. Treacy had
already placed the case before the pope and the
cardinals personally before Mgr. SatolIi's ar
rival in America
Third-Because Mgr. Satolli, in his letter 10
the Poles, laid down principles that utterly
disqualify him from acting as an impartial
judge
Fourth-Because Mgr. satoli has violated
his repeated and written promises to both
the Rev. William P. Treacy and the Rev. P. A.
Treacy.
The appeal to Rome is held BY the Treacvs to
suspend the authority of Mgr Satoli and
Bishop OFarrell over the Rev. p A. Treacy Of
Burlington and his brother, the Rev. VIM. P.
Trescy OF Swedesborough, n. j., whom Mgr.
Satolli and Bishop O'Farrell are now irving TO
remove because be defended his brother.
