BOYCOTTING ILLEGAL.
A Decision to That Effect by q Rhode
Island Court.

Island Court.
PROVIDENCE, r. l., October 18.-Judge
Tillinghast of the Supreme Court to-day
handed down rescript of national I'M
portance to trades people. The National
Association of Master Plumbers has
branch in this State, which recently is
sued circulars to the wholesale dealers
in plumbers supplies warning them not
to sell supplies to plumbers who were
not members of the association. These
circulars were particularly aimed at Ma
cauley Bros. of this city. This firm un-
dertook to purchase supplies in the open
market, but was in some instances re-
fused, thus being put to considerable
inconvenience. The firm applied to the
Supreme Court for an injunction to re-
strain the association from interfering
with it's business. II. J. Turney, the
Secretary of the Master Plumbers AS
ISOLATION of Providence, was made the
respondent. The court says that un-
doubtedly the members of the associa-
ton have the right to purchase their
supplies where they please and to COM
bine and agree that they will not patron
ize wholesalers who sell to non-members
of their own association, yet they have
no right by threats to coerce wholesalers
not to sell to non-members of that as
ISOLATION. The defendant association
was using unlawful means to compel the
plaintiff to Join the association, and the
association was wrongfully interfering
with the business of the plaintiffs. An
Injunction was ordered to issue against
the association.

STRANGE DOUBLE LIFE.

The History of q Burglar Who IL Also .
Murderer.
Boston, October DEMONSTRATION by
detectives has brought to light the fact
that William Barrett, now locked up in
the Cambridge Jail and charged with the
murder of Constable James Farrar of
Lincoln, Mass, last May, led a strange
double life. In New York city he sup
ported a wife and child in style, and rep
resented to them that he was dealer in
driving horses, while the evidence se-
cured by the police leads to the conclu-
sion that he was also prominent burg
lar. On the night of May II last burg
lar entered the house of James Farrar of
Lincoln. Farrar was awakened, and
with his brother and several neighbors
pursued the burglar. After following
the footprints of the thief for some hours
they came across Barrett in the woods,
and attempted to arrest him. In the
struggle which followed Barrett killed
Farrar. Barrett was captured, however,
and on him was found a complete burg
lars kit. It now develops that Barrett's
real name is William Bassett, and the
police claim he has been a professional
burglar for some time. When his wife
discovered who he was, she left New
York and went to Canada with her son.
1t is said the boy is still ignorant OF his
fathers character.

MONTREAL, October 18.-Monsignore
Satolli, who arrived here yesterday, said
in an interview: "I have no official mis-
sion here. My Jurisdiction is confined
to the United States, and I have quite
enough to do as it is. Even now l have
business waiting on me in Washington.
Quebec is we'll known throughout the
Catholic world for the devotion of the
people to the Holy See and to the Church.
But you have other provinces, where the
Protestant element predominates. You
have the province of Ontario, which has
taken up the idea of the American Pro-
tective Association to large extent. |
do not think that the association which
so ostracizes the Catholics from every
position of profit and honor constitutes
a permanent or serious danger. Like
the Know-Nothing movement it is
founded on ignorance and prejudice,
which will be dispelled, and they will
pass away. They will have beneficial
.Iect in this way-that they will make
Catholics more jealous for the defense
and propagation of their faith; but such
movements also indicate the necessity
on our part of being prudent and moder-
ate and the danger to all which appeals
to sectarianism may cause in mixed
country like America"

His Death in q Russian Prison Recalls q
Diplomatic Controversy.
WASHINGTON, October ia dispatch
received at the State Department yester-
day from Consul-G eneral Jones an
nounced the death of Stanislaus Krzmin-
iski, a naturalized American citizen, in
a Russian prison at Warsaw October IA.
This death terminates diplomatic incl
dent which marked a new phase in the
diplomatic relations of the United States
and Russia, in which Secretary Gresham
is understood to have impressed upon
the government of the Gar the advan-
tages of our statute of limitations, which
is unknown in Russian law. Krzmin-
iski had lived in America since 1859, and
had become naturalized. He returned
to Russia and was arrested for political
crime, that of participating in a Polish
revolution thirty years ago. Upon the
prompt demand of this government he
was released on this charge, but i'm
mediately rearrested for alleged embez-
element committed while he was a po-
lice official just before he came to Amer
lea, and he was awaiting trial on this
charge when he died. The United States
was powerless to intervene for his re-
lease on this charge, and was confined to
an effort to secure prompt trial.

to Face Each Other on the Banks Of

SHANGHAI, October 18.-A report is in
circulation here that Port Arthur has
been captured by the Japanese. This
port is one of the most important of the
Chinese strongholds, and was the place
of refuge of the Chinese feet after the
battle of the Yalu river, the disabled
ships having been repaired and reftted
there. 1t commands the entrance to the
Gulf of Pc Chi Ii on the north.
THE EMPERoR's FATHER-IN-LAw.
New YORK, October 18.-A special
from Shanghai says: Fifteen thousand
troops under Field Marshal Oyama are
encamped across Regents Sword Prom
ontory to the north of Port Arthur and
within sight of that naval stronghold.
They are waiting for favorable moment
to move forward, while outside of the
port the Japanese cruisers are ready to
intercept all retreat southwark. Sung
Kwei, the Emperor's father-in-law, has
reached Shan Hal Kwan, the place on
the Gulf OF Liam Tung where the high
road from the coast to Peking begins.
He takes the chief command, and will
try to prevent the landing of force of
the enemy at that port, which possesses
great strategic prominence.
STILL FACING EACH OTHER.
LONDON, October 1S.-A dispatch to
the Central News from Win, dated Mon
day, says: The two opposing armies
still face each other on the banks of the
Yalu river. The Chinese have not fred
shot, but are night and day strength
ening their defenses. Count Yamagata,
the Japanese commander-in-chief, is
awaiting the arrival of heavier artillery
before attacking the Chinese position.
Japanese scouts estimate that the Chi
nese force altogether numbers $4,000
men. The scouts have brought detailed
information as to the condition of the
Chinese defenses, showing that they are
not so strong as first reports indicated.
The Chinese artillery is shown to be less
formidable than the Japanese had sup
posed. A decisive attack is expected
soon. Various indications justify the
belief that the chief stand of the Chi
nese will be at Kubenchao.
DID NOT CARE TO FIGHT.
LONDON, October 1S.-The Japanese
legation has received advices to the eff
feet that the Japanese transport steamer
Ariaki Maru has arrived at Yokohama
from Hong Kong. A Chinese gunboat
left Hong Kong few hours before the
Ariaki Maru, but contrary to expecta-
tons made no attempt to engage the
transport.

WASHINGTON, October 1S.-The annual
report of Major General Miles, COM
handing the departments of the Missouri,
has been received, showing the condi-
ton of affairs in that department in a
remarkably short document, considering
the stormy period of internal strife COW
cred by it. But Notwithstanding its
brevity it contains some very terse ard
significant statements relative to the
strike. On this point it says after TO
citing the work the military was required
to do:
Cali of these difficult duties have been
performed in q manner which shows good
Judgment and discretion on the part OF
officers and good state of discipline
and faithful service on the part of the
troops, and it is believed that but for
their prompt Intervention much blood
shed would have resulted.
1.-THE conduct of the troops in restor-
ing order and confidence where mob
violence and reign of terror existed in
Chicago was marked by great forbear-
ance, fortitude and discipline, and their
presence and action have verygreatly con-
tributed to the maintenance of civil laws,
and in my opinion saved the country
from serious rebellion in State where
one had been publicly declared to exist
by one most responsible for its exist
enceo

Another Complication Regarding the
Free Alcohol Section.
WASHINGTON, October II. - Another
complication has arisen regarding the
free alcohol section of the new tariff law.
Secretary Carlisle, owing to the failure
of Congress to make the necessary ap-
preparation, is unable to put the law
into effect. Notwithstanding the Secre-
tary's decision it is contendeded that al
cohol used in the arts, ETC., is free since
August %. Users of alcohol in medi-
cine and in the arts want to know
wherein they violate the law in remov-
ing revenue stamps from the empty bar
rels. If they do not, they will have no
evidence on which to base claims against
the government for the return OF duty
paid since the law went into effect. On
the other hand, as the law now stands,
they are liable to heavy penalties for not
destroying the stamps when the barrels
are empty.

Francisco regiment of the Coxey army
to Washington, has completed arrange
ments for his new Industrial march, but
instead of going across the continent he
will this time direct his invading forces
toward San Jose and the productive
regions that lie along the route. The
object of this march is to secure sigma
lures to Congressional petition for re-
lief of the unemployed and incidentally
to obtain contributions of supplies for
the army that is rapidly increasing in
numbers at the big tent on Eighth and
Franklin streets. After the election the
little army will march down the coast to
Los Angeles, returning by way OF Bakers
field, and ali along the route the farmers
will be asked to help support the men
who in summer derive low wages Tor
their work on the ranches. Branches OF
the army will be established in various
parts of the State with the intention
after massing the forces at Sacramento
during the next session of the Legisia-.
ture to proceed in the manner Coxey and

New YORK, October 17.-At Prohibi.
ton Park last evening DR.. McGlynn an.

members of the A. P. A. DR.. McGlynn

Park had handed him these questions to
answer:
rs there anything in the constitution
of the Catholic Church which is q men,
ace to the republican form Of govern
mentW
I" Is it true the vows of Catholic priest
hood interfere with loyal citizenship in
republican country like our own?''
Was not the Archbishop of New
York compelled to interfere with your
rights as citizen because OF your polit-
ical enthusiasm"
To the first question Father McGlynn
answered with an emphatic no. He
added:
"The Catholic Church will not menace
this country. So far from the Pope try
ing to revolutionize this country it is the
reverse, and in no country does the up
holding of the Catholic faith 30 please
him as in America"
To the second question DR.. McGlynn
replied:
"Priests do not take vows; they only
make promises at the time of ordina-
tions. Those promises only restrict the
priest in his religious observances and to
celibacy."
{" 1 answer yes to the third question"
said the speaker, but those who con-
demned me made a mistake. Neither
the Catholic Church nor the Pope is in
fallible. / was communicated, but
that wound is all healed and I bear no
