THE PAPAL NUNCIO's CIRCULAR.
It Causes n Heated Debate in the
Chamber of Deputies.


Paris, May 17.-In the Chamber Of.
Deputies today, NJ. Raiberti, represent
ing the -Maritimes, questioned the
government in regard to the steps it
intended to take over the circular
which the papal nuncio recently adj
dressed to the French bishops with
reference to the law directing that all
church accounts should be kept uni
formly NJ Raiberti declared the
nuncio had no right to indicate to the
bishops the political attitude they were
to assume.
M Bysserin declared it was not a
religious question, but the national
dignity was involved. The nunciO had
violated international law in interfer-
ing in French legislation, and the
bishops, in reply to his circular, had
been guilty Of penal offense.
M. Gendre asked why the army took
part in the recent Joan of Arc fetes.
NJ. Cochin maintained the papal
nuncio had not exceeded his powers
The nuncio's letter was merely coun-
sci to the French bishops, and was in
no way aggressive. He believed the
new spirit of the country would de-
precate these attacks upon the church.
Further heated discussion followed,
and it was. announced from the Social
members that they intended to intro
duce a resolution. when the foreign
estimates came before the chamber,
that the French embassy at the
vatican be suppressed.
Premier CasSimer-Perier said the Of
fetal representation Of the army at the
Joan of Arc fetes was forbidden, but
officers were allowed to be present in
their private capacity.
Referring to the charges made
against the papal nuncio, the premier
said he believed the letters circular
was good-intentioned. The premier
said: Nevertheless, we deemed that
explanations were necessary and we
telegraphed to this effect to the French
minister at the vatican, Whereupon the
papal nuncio made an apology for send
ing the circular, declaring the incident
would not occur again. This declara-
ton satisfied the government and the
incident was regarded as closed.
| CHEERS from the right)
The premier added: IF you disap-
prove of this solution you can vote
against the government We made
clear to the vatican that the govern
ment would not brook any interference
into the church accounts law, which
may be modified when the submission
of the Clericals is complete Until then
| the government will refuse to enter
into any negotiations on the subject. -
! These remarks were greeted with
cheers, after which many of the depu-
ties pressed around the minister and
| congratulated him upon his strong
declaration of policy.
! The chamber, by a vote of 334 to 112
adopted a motion approving of the
declaration of the premier.

were crossing the Washington line
and waiting for the first train out.
The industrials have to be fought off
every train.
One hundred and fifty of the Seattle
party captured a train at Trent, Wash,
and were put off by deputies and sol
diers. They attempted, to take the
train a second time, but were stood off.
One hundred and seventy-five of the
Seattle contingent, who crossed into
Idaho today, are being loaded into
barges at Sand Point, and are going
across Lake Pen D. O'Reille to Clark's
Fork, where they will strike the rail-
road.
Reinforcements Asked For.
Sweeney asks for reinforcements at
Sand Point, as to leave the line now
will give the Northern Pacific east of
there to the industrials. In view of
these reports, Marshal Pinkham wired
Judge Beatty, at Moscow, to join him
in a request to the attorney general
for a company of soldiers to be sent
to Sweeney's aid. He wired the attor-
ney-general:
My chief deputy, guarding the Nor

Their docility, however, was more ap-
parent than real; for this evening, a
squad of rs of them made a rush to-
wards the guard tent where a stack of
guns was standing.
Captain Burns, officer of the day,
called up the entire guard and drove
the wealers back. Tonight, the number
of sentries around them was doubled.
| Judge Riner will reach here tomor-
row morning. If an order of removal
to Idaho is issued by him, two COM
panies of the Seventeenth infantry will
escort the 'wealers to Boise, and Cap
tain Lowering, with the men Of his
command here, will go to Pocatelio,
where thirty of his men are now

Employees of the railroad company
at Montpelier deny the charge of the
'wealers that the train On which they
! left that place was furnished them b.
citizens Ample proof is had that the
'wealers took the engine from the
round house themselves, and neither
citizens nor railroad employees gave
them any assistance.
Directions have been given all enl-
ployees to refuse to aid IN operating
trains captured by the comnonwealers.

ference, Delegate Convey, a Yorkshire
miner, introduced a resolution advocat-
ing a general, legal eight hours of labor
per day for all countries represented

opinion, and that capitalists will soon
adapt themselves to the new condi-
ton.

Durham miners, moved an amendment
that legislatures not be empowered to
fix the hours for labor, as it would be
an encroachment upon. the liberty of

LOOKS LIKE WAR.
An Effort to BE Made to Force Long
err Sessions.

Washington, May IA typewriter
paper, signed by Senators Cockrell and
Harris, as the subcommittee of the
Democratic steering committee, was
circulated on the Democratic side of
the chamber today, urging Democratic
senators to remain in their seats until
the Democratic leaders shall decide the
time for adjournment had arrived.
The paper calls attention to the fact
that on several occasions it has been
necessary to break pairs to maintain
quorum after o'clock in the after
noon, and states the Importance of
keeping a quorum of Democrats pres
ent as long as the Senate remains in
session.
The paper was favorably received
generally among Democratic senators,
and all to whom it was presented sig
nified their willingness to occupy their
seats as long as the leaders should
think their presence necessary.
The paper is supposed to precede an
effort to extend the daily sessions in
definitely into the evening.

THOUGHT 1T A GOOD THING.
Chicago Terminals of Great Value
TO the Nnrthern PACIFIC.

Chicago Terminals of Great Value
to the Northern Pacific.
New York, May 17-George A. Nor
rison, director of the Northern Pacific
from 1889 to 1892 was examined today
before A. L. Carey, the master APP
pointed to inquire into the allegations
Of fraud against the officers of the cor
poration. Morrison considered the Chi
cago terminal properties of great value
to the Northern Pacific and thought
100000 a fair price for them.
E. D. Ceilings gave testimony that
he graded about forty-siX miles for the
Rocky Fork at a cost of about $4,000,
in 1S87-SS. He did not complete the
whole of the grading, and the engineer
made an estimate showing that $4,000
would be required to put in in perfect
shape. Secondhand rails were taken
from the Northern Pacific road at $50
per ton and the ties cost from % to
40 cents, according to quality and To-
cation. Track spices cost so cents a
set including bolts, and were Northern
Pacific secondhand material. The road
would cost, on this basis, about $685.
600, including the estimated cost of
bridges, etc. The entire length of the
road was fifty-siX miles, including sid
1ngs, etc. In this estimate, 1900 tons
OF rails were used, costing about SAL
600. Upon croSs-eXamination by Col
onel Mcknight, Mr.. Ceilings admitted
this was his first and only railroad
building contract; that he knew little
or nothing about the business, and
that most Of what he had stated was
mere hearsay.
George Baxter, treasurer of the Chi
cago & Northern Pacific, and treasurer
to the receivers, told of the Rocky
Fork property, and how the Northern
Pacific had purchased the Northern
Pacific & Manitoba road, giving $500
bonds of 81, 900 each for the road COM
pleted. Part of the road is incomplete,
and the Northern Pacific officials got
into dispute as to the value of this
portion. This was settled by the con-
tractors giving enough material to
complete the work. Lawyer Petit con-
tended that the amount involved in the
dispute was something over $500. 900.
while Treasurer Baxter was certain
the amount was not more than S25, 900.
Tomorrow Mr.. Baxter will produce
certain check books and other docu-
ments bearing on the matter at issue.
To Settle the Railways Debts.
Washington, May IA plan for
settling the Union Pacific indebtedness
to the government was reported to the
House Committee on Pacific Railways
today by the subcommittee. The
basis is the eXtinguishment of the
present first mortgage and the substi-
tuition of one to be the first lien for the
government debt. Payments are re-
quired yearly of $1,65O,0 900 from the
Union Pacific and $1,000, 600 from the
Central Pacific. It is estimated that
fifty to sixty-five years will be re-
quired to- cancel the debt.

IN DEALING WITH sEALERs.
Discretionary Powers Conferred
Upon Captain Clark.

discretionary POWERS conferred
Upon Captain Clark.
Washington, May 17.-Captain Clark,
of the Mohican, the senior officer Of
the Boring sea feet, which sailed from
Port Townsend today, has had certain
discretionary powers conferred upon
him to deal with such sealing vessels
as ne may meet in the closed zone,
but if he finds any vessel with skins
abroad, evidently taken since due no
tice of the provisions of the arbitration
agreement, such vessels will be seized.
The exact status of the British
sealer Triumph, which recently re-
turned to Victoria, after a warning
from the British cruiser Hyacinth, is
not clearly known here, and it may
be the subject of another dispute be-
tween the governments of the United
States and Great Britain. The
Hyacinth was sent north at the urgent
request of the British Columbians to
give notice to the sealers Of the pas
sage of the restrictive act.
lSome Of the officials were told if she
encountered the Triumph with freshly
Asaken seal skins abroad, it was the
duty of the commander under the act
TO seize the vessel and return her to
port. Then it would remain for the
court TO decide whether the master of
the Triumph, before taking the skins,
had known of the results of the arbi-
tration. 1t was this point that
caused the delay in the final
passage Of the British fleet, be-
cause of Secretary Gresham's in
sistence upon this point and when the
British government finally yielded. it
was supposed there could be no doubt
remaining as to the liability to seizure
of vessels that sought, knowingly, to
take advantage Of the delay in passing
the British act.
1t may be the Triumph really was
formally seized by the Hyacinth. mas
mach as she was ordered to report to
Collector Milne. at Victoria. but the
fact that she was allowed to dispose
of her seal skins does not bear out
that supposition, and it is expected
that more will be heard of the mat
ter.
