OF tWenty-one members from among the
bankers of the country, the political

gate the whole situation and prepare
some financial system, and when that
has been done, let Congress go to work

ing letter:
Christmas has again visited our
stricken land with its Frustrated in,
dustries and its idle throngs, willing
but unable to work and unwillingly
forced TO beg or suffer. Your pAaacea,
"a change in the Sherman law and the
tariff--hass been administered. but there
is no change in the sad condition Of our
unfortunate country. After two years
Of ruinous delay and acknowledgement
you have, thank heaven, at last is
covered the real trouble although you
have not proposed the proper remedy.
As you now concede, the country needs
more money, but it does nee want the
worthless stuff you proffet Dit needs
gold and silver money with which to
pay debts and it does not want bank
rags with which it cannot pay debts.
Sixty years ago the Democratic party
had president who defied the banks in
the interest of the people. Has 1t now a.
president, who defies the people in the
interest of the banks? All the tradi-
tons of the party which elected you
are for gold and silver money and
against bank currency. Do you aspire

the cause entrusted to your care which

one. in all the annals of american, his

Your party in both Houses favors
the restoration of silver as STANDARD

from the existing prostra,tion of bust
ness, favors 1T; and will you not stand
with them In overturnfng the monome-
tallic policy Of the British nloneyed oil
garchy, which is fast degrading our
fair country to the condition of a, sub

people to a condition of financial serf-

DR. rcLrNN cELEBRArEs MASS.
The First Occasion of the Kind in
Eight Years.

New York, Dec. 25.-The Rev. DR..
Edward McGlynn celebrated solemn
high mass at the Church of the Holy
Cross on Forty-second street at 4:30
this morning. 1t was the first occa sion
in which Father McGlynn had been
the celebrant of high mass in a church
in this city during the past eight
years and the immens concourse which
gathered to greet him this morning
returned with augmented numbers
seven hours later to hear his sermon.
The gatherings which thronged the
church at 4:30 and IL o'clock this morn
ing were probably the most fashion
able and numerous assemble ges
which have ever filed the edifice. At
the early service mass she Rev.
Father Smith oficiated as dea-
con and Rev. Father MeGews as
sub-deacon. After the first gospel,
McGIynn spoke briefly, referring to
the portentious significance Of the
days celebrations and calling atten-
ton tC the sacred character of the
anniversary. Before 10 o'clock the
seats of the church were half filed
yith persons desiring to attend the
arochial mass when 1t had been an
ounced Father McGlynn would de-
liver the sermon. By IL O'Clock the
aisles were packed to Ell inconvenient
degree and after that hour it was i'm
possible to gaiL admission to the
church. So full was the church that
many ladies were compelled to leave
before the services had fairly COM
menced. The regular congregation
was almost outnumbered by Roman
Catholics from st. Stevens parish, of
which DR.. McGlynn was formerly
pastor. The old Pensioners OF the
famous divine Joined in extending
their former pastor a hearty and i'm
pressive Christmas greeting. At the
conclusion of the gospel Father Nc
Glynn preached his sermon. He took
no special text, simply weaving his
remarks. around the lessons taught in
the eptstle of St. John and the gospel
for the day. His sermon, however,
was more OF a conventional Christmas
discourse. He touched on no mates
concerning his difficulty with Arch
bishop CorrigHn.
GLORY to God on nigh and on earth,
and peace and good will,'' was the
theme of his address.
This afternoon DR.. McGlynn partook
of a Christmas dinner with the Rev.
Drs. Smith, Mc6Iee, McGrady, Seaman,
Keefe and several invited friends. a
presentation was made TO Father Nc
Glynn of a purse collected for him by

by using sharp lacks, the points of

been placed, and when Morrow got the
gag off the handkerchief was dyed red
with blood. He had also chewed the
