ATTORNEY DENNIS SURPRISED.
He Did Not Think 0lney Would ''Sit
Down" on the Southern Pacific Suit.

Los ANGELES, Cal, July lS-United
States District Attorney Dennis manifested
great surprise when shown Attorney-gen-
eral Olney's utterances on the suit Mr..
Dennis brought on Tuesday against the
Southern Peacifc company. of Kentucky.
He said: lit is impossible that the opinion
can be held in the Department Of Justice
that the combinations referred to in the
bill in equity 1 filed between the Southern
Pacific company, of Kentucky, and the
corporations mentioned is legal The point
against its legality has been time and
again argued in the United States Supreme
Court by the government. and the only rea-
son, in my judgment. why the Supreme
Court has not held such a combination to
be unlawful is that it decided cases where
the point was raised in favor OF the govern
ment on other grounds. OF course, l can
not tell you what the Attorney
understands about the matter, but L wired
him on Friday, substantially telling him
that evidence was in our possession Of an
unlawful combination in restraint of trade

him for authority for bringing the suit

If the people of indianapolis need evil
dence that they are especially favored In
the matter of natural-gas rates they Will
find it in the figures printed in another part
Of this issue of the Journal The figures
are part of a comparative statement based
on the official schedule of prices paid for
gas in fifteen cities of Indiana, including
indianapolis. OF the fourteen cities besides
this five are directly in the gas belt VIZ:
Button, Anderson. Muncie, Elwood and
Kokomo. Yet not one of these cities has as
low a rate as indianapolis, while the aver
age rates in the fourteen cities are from
50 to 10 per cent higher than here. The
Journal learns that in making up this
statement every point of difference has
been construed against Indianapolis, and
vet the result shows that the people CT
this city are getting natural gas for cook
ing and heating purposes, for private res
licences, restaurants and hotels very much
cheaper than those of any other city in
Indiana.

The locking up of Debs and others at
Chicago is little short of an outrage. The
excessive bail required of them was who'll
ly unnecessary to secure their presence
when their cases should be called for trial.
No sane man believes that they would
have sought to evade the process of the
courts. Indeed, great many believe they
have violated no law. The requirement of
such extraordinary bail under these cir
cumstances looks very much like oppres-
sion.
The foregoing is from the Sentinel. which
again is playing second fiddle to the
Chicago Times, which advertises that it is
no longer Democratic. Probably the Debs-
ties who writing editorials for the
Sentinel do not know that Judge Seaman,
who locked Debs up. is a Democrat APP
pointed by the same President who made
it's chief proprietor an ofice-hoIder. and
confirmed by the same Senate. 1t also ig-

bail the other day. and men enjoying sal
aries of $1,000 or $500, 5000 bail is moder-
ate, particularly when 1t was proved that
Debs had sent orders to subordinates to
save money and buy guns. Furthermore
the eager champion of lawlessness in the
Sentinel office seems to have forgotten
that Debs said he would not give bail for
cents. The only difference between the
Chicago Times and the Sentinel is that
the former assails the President by name,
while the latter labors to create prejudice
obligation to the President.

UPHELD BY SATOLLI
BISHOP wATTERsON's CONDEMNA-
TION OF LIQUOR SELLERS.
Important Decision That VIII Result
I'm Suspension of saloon Keepers
from Catholic Church Societies.

NEW YORK, July 1s.-The Press viii to-
morrow say: Mgr. Satolli. the apostolic
delegate, has just rendered a decision con-
demning the liquor traffic. He approves OF
the expulsion of liquor dealers from Catn-
Ollie societies. This remarkable decision was
called forth by an appeal from the ruling
of Bishop Watterson. OF Columbus, o.
During the last lenten season Bishop Wat
terson addressed a letter TO the clergy and
laity Of his diocese dealing wholly with
the temperance problem Bishop Waiter
said: Il hereby withdraw my appro-
baton from any and every Catholic So
ciety in this diocese that has liquor dealer
ora saloon keeper at its heaC or anywhere
among its officers; and / suspend every
such society itself from the rank and priv
ileges as Catholic society until IL ceases
TO be so differed. No one who is engaged
either principal agent in the manu-
fscture or sale of intoxicating liquors should
be amitted to membership"
One of the societies laid the matter
formally before Mgr Satolli. To this ap-
peal the apostolic delegate has just re-
sponded. He sustains the position of Bishop
Watterson and says: 1.-The liquor traffic,
and especially a conducted here in the
United States, is the source Of much evil;
hence the Bishop was acting within his
rights in seeking 10 restrict ii. Therefore,
the apostolic delegate sustains Bishop Wat
tersons action and approves of mis- circular
and regulations concerning saloons and the
expulsion of saloon keepers from member
ship in Catholic societies."
Rev. Alexander p. Doyle. Of the Paulist
fathers, the general secretary Of the Cath
Ollie Total Abstinence Union of America, said
that the declaration of the apostolic dele
gate is the most important ever pronounced
by the church in this country, and he
thought its effect would be far-reaching.
Catholic Summer school.
PLATTSBURG, n. Y, July B.-The
number of students at the Catholic sum-
mer school is growing steadily. At the
first lecture Father Halpin took in the
question of the existence Of God. He de-
MED that there could be specializing
atheists. A lively interest was excited by
questions proposed through the question
box, some of which were evidently written
by non-Catholics. The feature of the day
was the lecture by Prof w. o. Robinson,
of Yale law school, on the origin and de-
velopment of law. j. X. Foran, editor OF
the True Witness, Montreal in a lecture
on early education in Canada, maintained
that the real and all important obstacle
in the path of early missionaries was the
rapacity of the fur trading companies and
their employees who used every means to
keep the Indians in Ignorance and bar
bariSm.

Tawney was roasted to a cinder by the
