LAND GRANT LEAGUES.
Secretary Smith Decides That the
French Measurement Is the Stand.

Secretary Smith Decides That the
French Measurement Is the Stand
ard.
Washington, Feb. 1S.-Secretary Smith,
in reversing a recent decision of the COM
missioner of the general land office has
decided point that will have bearing
on a large number Of cases now pending
before the department in what is known
as the Florida Spanish land grants
The case came before the secretary on
appeal and involved the question as to
what congress intended by the word
League in connection with a tract Of
and. The commissioner of the land Office
decided that congress meant the Spanish
league, which contained ,43s.6S acres of
land. The appellant contended that the
French league was the measurement that
congress intended TO apply TO private
tracts in the Spanish land grant. In
his decision the secretary says
that IA league square" of land
as understood by congress, as well as
those concerned, in reference TO private
claims at the time of the passage of
the act meant a tract of land containing
6,002. so acres, or the French league. The
Spanish league (443S. 6S acres) is less than
the quantity of land involved and con-
gress could not have meant the English
league, which is greater than the French
league.

COMMUNION oF CHILDREN.
Archbishop Kain Issues Instructions
to the Parish Priests

St.Louis, Mo, Feb ls.-Archbishop Kahn
has created a stir among Catholics during
the week by letter which he has sent to
the clergy, wherein he expresses the de-
sire that all Catholic children who at
tend the public schools be prepared for
their first communion by their parish
priests. He says: For years some
Of the clergy have used coer-
Give measures to force Catholic
children out of the public schools into the
parish schools The most potent means
was to refuse to instruct the children for
their first communion unless they went to
the parochial school for two years. Par
ents who resisted logic succumbed to this
religious ostracism, and took their chill
dren from the public schools. If they
persisted in sending their children to the
free institutions of learning, they either
did not have them make their first COM
munion or they sent them to instruction
in another parish, where the
priests had no parochial schools
and, and therefore, were not opposed to
the public schools. In many parishes
ladies endowed with intelligence and
more practical religion than their rectors
formed classes of girls and boys who at
tended the publiclschools or who had to
work, and instructed them at night in
the dogmas, knowledge of which is pre-
requisite for the first communion"

A CRISIS At FALL RIVER.
Wages Must Be Cut or the Mills Must
Shut Down,

The Treasurers of the Concern Face
the Situation With Trepidation-Bro-
kers of the Opinion That One or the
Other of the Alternatives is Inevita-
ble-The Stocks on Hand and Sales.
Fall River, Mass, Feb. 1s.-There is a
movement already afoot here to reduce
wages in the local mills One of the
mills told one Of his treasurers recently
that he did not approve of running much
longer while goods are selling at
present prices. He declared positively
that the operatives would be asked to
choose between a shut down, or a cut
down before April /. In response, the
treasurer said that he did not believe
that the other agents would consent to a
shut down, but he thought the majority
would vote for the cut down, if the mat
ter was brought before them.
LAST WEEKS MARK DOWN.
Last weeks mark down of the Ameri
can Printing Company's products caused
many treasurers to lose hope for any per-
mauent advance in prices before sum
mer. Inasmuch as most of them have
been running along without saving much
money, they feel free to express them
selves in favor of further decline in the
prices of labor. Last weeks sales were
but l26,000 pieces, while the stock on
hand went up 81, 900 pieces.
THE SALES FOR NEXT WEEK.
There are 126, 900 pieces sold for delivery
next week, and only 900 pieces for the
week following Although the mill owner
mentioned, speaks positively regarding
his future attitude, should business not
improve, there are few treasurers who
do not wish to speak of a cut down.
One of them has said within a
few days that he prefers to let New Bed
ford, Lowell and other places take the
initiative and if the reductions are ac-
cepted in those places he would be willing
to take similar action here Meanwhile
there are reports of under selling by out,
side parties. Leading brokers say that
an early shut down or cut down here is
inevitable.

WAR ON THE LORDS.

A Meeting Held in Trafalgar Square
to Prove the Popular Opposition.
London, Feb. 1S.-A netting was held
in Trafalgar square this afternoon to de-
monstrate the opposition to the House of
Lords. AS the weather was bitterly cold
the crowd was not very enthusiastic The
meeting adopted a resolution that in view
of it's repeated distractions of legislation
the House of Lords was mischievous
and useless, and ought to be abolished
forthwith. Three memb of the House
of Commons took part in the meeting.
They were DR.. Charles Tanner, anti
Parncllite, for the middle division of
Cork Dadabahal Naoroi, liberal, mem
Der for the central division Of F'insbury,

say that when the necessity arises, a sus-
pect can be shadowed more easily in Lon
Qon than IN any other European capital.
The United Press correspondent was as
sured also by high police official that no
proposal for international police measures
against anarchists had been made re-
Gently by any government.
PRESENT FOR BISMARCK.
The women of Baden, Hesse and the
Pfalz have formed a committee TO give
Prince Bismarck a present on his next
birthday. The present will consist of an
illuminated address and eighty bottles of
OLD wine from the three districts.
DR.. H. Bokemyer, of Berlin, says, in a
letter to the Kreuz ZeitunP, that emf
grants to America might best settle under
the direction of his committee in North
ern Mexico. By concentrating German
emigration in that region, he says, it will
be possible to establish a German counter
weight TO Pan-American tendencies.
THE GOVERNMENT CONGRATULATED.
Two thousand merchants and manufac-
turers of the German empire met here
to-day. The assemblage was presided
over by prominent liberal member of the
reichstag. 1t was resolved to congratu-
late the government upon the conclu-
sion of the treaty with Russia. The en-
peror presided yesterday over the crown
council. Secretary Won Bieberstein and
Herr Thielmann, one of the signers of the
Russo-German treaty, were present.

THE CoBURN CASE.
The Secretary of the Treasury Going
to Thoroughly Investigate 1t.

to Thoroughly Investigate 1t.
Washington, Feb 1S.-When Beckwith
was appointed and confirmed, he called
for the resignation of all the subordi-
mates. All resigned except one-Coburn.
He declined to resign on the ground that
he was not subject, in this respect TO the
collector He employed a lawyer-Hon.
Thomas NJ. Norwood-and filed a protest
against being compelled TO resign. In his
paper, thus filed, he states that he is an
ofhcer in the customs service-a marine
clerk, that the collector has no
right to replove"' him, except for
cause; that no cause can be shown
against him as TO his es-
cheney, competency and qualification
that he is democrat, that the only
ground for his removal given by Beck
with Is that he is not agreea BILE to the
collector; that that does not affect the
question Of his qualifications or efficiency;
and that he submits to the Secretary of
the Treasury the question whether he
can be displaced by the collector without
cause. The papers in the matter are now
before Assistant Secretary Hamlin,
who is investigating the question
The appointment of subordinates
by the collector is subject to the approval
of the Secretary of the Treasury but
whether that officer will sustain the point
made by Coburn is yet to be decided.
The decision will be reached only after
a thorough investigation of the question
by the secretary.
In the argument filed by Col Norwood
for Mr.. Coburn, the statement is made
that a similar question arose
when Capt Wheaton was APP
pointed collector eight years ago.
1t is stated that one Of the subordinates
"a republican-refused to resign, in
obedience TO Capt. Wheaton's request,
thus making a parallel case to the one
now presented by Mr.. Coburn; and that
the then Secretary of the Treasury, Fair
child, sustained the points made by the
objecting subordinate. In his investigation
Assistant Secretary Hamilton has not
yet reached this alleged case, and there
fore it is not yet known whether or not 1t
furnishes a precedent. Up to this time
the present secretary has not had such a
case before him, ana he is going to thor
oughly investigate before deciding.

ANOTHER BOMB AT PARIS,
1t Was Found on the Staircase of a

Paris, Feb 1S.-A bomb similar in COM
position to that used by Valiant and
Henry was found to-day on the staircase
of the police station in the Rue du Tenn
pie, one of the busiest streets of the
city, and which leads to the Hotel de
Vile. In this street is the Marche du
Temple, which occupies the site of the
Tour du Temple, during the revolution
used as a prison for the royal family
HENRY MAKES A CONFESSION.
Anarchist Henry made a further CON
fession to the police yesterday, and as a
result of it his mothers house was
searched last night. The police found
much chemical apparatus, and number
of letters and photographs, includ-
ing a group of twenty anarchists.
All of these things will prove valuable to
the police in their efforts to arrest all the
other anarchists who were implicated in
the plot with Henry. Henry also di-
vulged the names of several of his an
archist friends, and their arrests aGe ex-
pected to take place in short time.
TRADE HURT BY THE SCARE,
The anarchist scare has crippled trade
in the best parts of Paris. Travellers 60
ing southwark break their Journeys in
Rheims and proceed thence without
touching the capital. The Rheims hotels
are overcrowded, while the Partisan
hotels are torsaken. The wealthy Pari-
SLAMS are remaining at their country resi-
dences. The theater receipts have de-
clined remarkably.
