FATHER melynNs CHRISTMAS.

His Old Psrishisusrs Join I'm q Hsurty
and Imprsssivs directing.
NEW York, Dec eo.-sev. DR.. Edward
McGlynn celebrated solemn high mass at
the Church OF tho Holy Cross, on Forty
second street, at 4:3o yesterday morning.
It was the first occasion on which Father
Mcf5lynn had been the celebrant of hiQh
mass In q church in this city during the
past eight years, and the immense con-
course which gathered to greet him IN the
morning returned with augmented num-
bers seven hours later to hear his sermon,
The gatherings which thronged and
packed the church both at 4:30 and II
1. o'clock were probably the most fashionable
and numerous assemblages which have
ever filed that edifice.
Before 10 o'clock the seats of the church
were half filed with persons DESTROYS Of
attending the parochial mass, when It had
been announced that Father McGlynn
would deliver the sermon. BY II o'clock
the aisles and galleries were packed to an
tnconvenient degree, and after that hour
1t was impossible to gain admission to the
church. So full was the eciflce that many
ladies wero compelled to leave before the
services had fairly commenced.
The regular congregation was almost
Stephens parish, Of which DR.. McGlynn
was formerly pastor. The old parishion-
ers Of the famous divine Joined in extend
Ing their former pastor hearty and i'm
pressive greeting.
AT the conclusion Of the gospel Father
McGlynn preached his sermon. He took
no special text, simply weaving his re.
marks around the lessons taught In the
epistle Of st. John and the gospel Of the
day His sermon, however, was merely a
conventional Christmas discourse. He
touched on no matters relating to his diff
ferences with Archbishop Corrigan nor to
the circumstances attendant upon his re-
instatement by Monsignor Satolli "Glory
to God on High, and on Earth Peace to
Men and Good WHIP was the theme of his
address.
In the afternoon, in the rectory adjoin-
Ing tho Church of tho Holy Cross, pres
entation was made to Father McGlynn of
purse collected for him by his friends.

Verdict Against q Telegraph company.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Dec e6-In the fed
eral court at Huntsville Mrs. Ida Ross,
widow Of Robert G. Ross, who was shot
and killed by the SHELTON boys at Steven
son several months ago because Of his al.
legged seduction of Annie SHELTON, has
been awarded verdict of $4,000 against
the Western Union Telegraph company,
because of the company's alleged failure to
deliver to Ross message warning him
that the Shelton boys were after him.
Judge Boaman set aside the verdict as
excessive. Mrs. Ross sent the telegram
from Scottsboro to Stevenson, whittier
Rose had gone by private conveyance to
take the train. The SHELTON boys overlook
him at Stevenson.

MEMPHIS, Dec 26-The funeral of ex-
Senator Alcorn, at Eagle Nest, Miss, pre-
sented perhaps the most weird scene ever
witnessed In this county. The obsequies
were attended by 800 negroes, the majority
Of whom were the former slaves Of the
dead senator. The negroes were incon-
solable in their grief and gave vent to
their feelings In shiieks, religious songs
and prayers. At the grave, the old gray
haired colored men threw themselves upon
the coffin and finally had to be removed
by force to allow the body to be buried.

THE ARMENIAN INQUIRY
Our Representative viii Take No
Part in It.
TURKISH GOVERNMENT OBJECTS.

Tho Attitude ofcae People I'm This Country
WINGED tho Porte That 1t Would Plaza Its
Interests In Danger.
CoNsTANTIHoPLE, Dec. 26.-The sultan
made final reply to the application of
United States Minister Te, = ar per-
mission to have Mr.. Jcwett maze an indie
pendent inquiry into the Armenian out
RACES. The sultan positively declined to
allow the consul to accompany the oom-
mission.
WASHINGTON, Dec. e6.-The refusal of
the sultan to allow Mr.. Jewett TO perform
the mission with which he was charged by
President Cleveland was not unexpected
at the state department.. For the past week
Ministe, Terrell, getting under the pressure
of the department of state, has been urg-
Ing the porte to permit the Investigation,
but his services TO the department. have
shown that he felt little confidence in q
successful outcome.
Tho reluctance of the Turkish govern
ment to accede to his request Is accounted
Tor by the formidable proportions to which
the agitation in the United States In favor
OF intercession on behalf Of the Armenians
In Turkey has attained. Atflrst the porte
sA"NSA eao aAitpiSooiohJ nav
Ing In view the outcome of previous inves-
legations into alleged outrages by the
Turks upon their Christian subjects, that
the United States was so favorably In
clined toward their sido that the result of
such an inquiry as was proposed would
not be harmful. But the intensity of feel
Ing displayed in the various mass meet
ings and church assemblies in the United
States have convinced the porte that IL
would be placing its interests In danger
Gus hands, and when IL learned that the
person chosen to make the inquiry was a
son Of an American missionary, and ma
tive of the very country where the outrages
are alleged to have occurred, prompt ne.
gative was returned to Mr.. Terrell's re-
quest.
1t does not appear that there Is any way
Of going behind this decision, for Mr..
Jewett, being refused permission to in
vestigate in his capacity as an officer of
the United States, could not undertake 1t
safely as an Individual. Therefore it is prob
able that this last action of the Turkish
government ends definitely the partioipa-
ton Of the United States In the projected
inquiry, which will consequently ha con-
Quoted entirely by Europeans.
