on ireland. when questioned last evening at
his residence about the present status be-
fore the Catholic church Of certain so-c&ilod
secret societies, such as Sons OF Temper
ance odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias.
said the question of whether CathoIlcS
could belong to them or not IS no" being
considered by the authorities at Rome, ana
that \ decision may soon be given, but that
meanwhile Catholics would do well not TO
seek membership in those societies.
1t was learned from another source that

the infuriated natives, but in any event
IT viii be the few against many, and If
there should be a general uprising it will be
a serious time for Americans, as well as
other Foreigners. 1t is well known that
the average Chinaman bears love for
the American and when the riot comes
the latter will be sure to suffer.
Mr.. John Russell Young's warning as to
what would happen to American residents
iii the event of an uprising in Picking and
other parts of China is brought forcibly
to mind by Minister Denby's dispatch. The
Herald's repeated warnings and urgent
demands for an increase in our naval
forces in the Pacific are also apropos The
officials will not admit that an augmenta-
ton of the forces as repeatedly urged.
would have served to any purpose in the
present emergency. The argument they
use is that even if a half-dozen additional
cruisers had been sent to China they would
not be available for service at Picking. for
the reason that only one or two vessels
in the navy of light draught, like the
Monocacy, could possibly enter the Pei-Ho
river. They seem to overlook the fact
however. that men are needed in Peking
and that it would be a comparatively easy
matter to sepd them to that city in trans
ports small boats.
The authorities, however. are alive to
the situation, ana if the situation in Picking
does not improve, the other vessels on the
Chinese coast will be ordered i'll that di-
rection for the purpose OF augmenting
the guard for the protection Of the legation
and American residents in Peking. There
are five of these vessels within compare
tivesy easy reach. The Baltimore, Adj
miral Carpenters flagship, IS at Nagasaki;
the Charlestons at Chemulpo, the Concord
at Chin Kiang, the Petrol is in the vicinity
of Port Arthur, the Yorktown is en- route
from San Francisco to Yokohama, ana is
expected to arrive daily 1t does not often
happen that the United States is required
TO land men for the protection of its le-
lgarions abroad. Whenever ii does the
situation must be grave. Hence it fol-
lows that the authorities must view with
concern Minister Denbys tidings from Pc
king.
Expect M Trouble.
They anticipate no difficulty with the
Chinese officials in getting permission to
land "A naval force from the Monocacy.
In fact, there arr reasons for believing
that the emperor has realized for some
time that u panic might ensue in Picking
as result of the alarm caused by the I'M
INSTRUCTED march of the japanese army
toward the capital, and to avoid complica-
tons with foreign governments there is
little doubt that the Chinese authorities
Will welcome the landing of foreign armed
forces for the protection of their own
subjects and property.
