Collision Narrowly Averted.

Bridgeport, Dec. 2.-The west bound express train leaving New Haven at 5:30 had the closest call from a serious and most disastrous collision that has been experienced for many years on the road. Preceding the express was a freight which stood at the Bridgeport depot, the engine taking water from the tank there, and the caboose an eighth of a mile up the track. A sig nal tower at Central avenue should have displayed a signal holding the ex- press, but the signals showed a clear track for the express, and the heavily laden train rushed along at a fifty-mile- an-hour gait. Had it not been for the presence of mind of Gateman George w. Ferris a fearful accident would have occurred. He left his position at the gate and ran with a red lantern nearly four hundred feet toward the approaching express. The engineer mo- ticed it just in time and when his train was stopped the engine was within one car length of the caboose of the station ary freight.

TOTAL ABsTAINERs INERT.

The Catholic Stale tSoeIety's Crusade
 Against Intemperance Planned-Impor-
 tant Business Transacted at Yesterdays
 Meeting-speakeTs Secured.
 The Catholic Total Abstainers of Con necticut met yesterday afternoon and arranged for a spirited crusade against the evil of intemperance. The meeting was held in the rooms of the St. Aloy- sius T. A. B. society on Chapel street and was attended lby state officers and county directors of the Catholic Total Abstinence union of Connecticut.
 Among those present were Rev. John T. Winters of South Norwalk, president M Lee of Norwich, Second Vice Presi- dent Miss Margaret A. Reagan of Bran ford, Secretary John J. Kelley of New Britain, Treasurer Charles Fitzgerald of Middletown, State Editor John G, McGowan of New Haven and the fol lowing county directors: E. F. Cafferty of New Haven, James H. Freney of Wa terbury, M. J. Kenney and Dennis Me Carthy of Hartford, Thomas B. Rooney eA II ehiltlCld NOuliby ooAiiS9 o' AsSNNoNsA~ SN I.itchfield, P. D. Kinney of Middlesex Rev. Father Clark of Holland, Rev. Ar thur O'Keefe of Windham, and Felix Callag ghan of New London.
 The most important business trans acted was in regard to arranging for Q series of temperance rallies to be held during this winter in this and other cities of the state, and it was voted to secure the best speakers obtainable.
 It was determined to make vigorous war on the evil of intemperanee and to secure, the services of such well known speakers as James F. Brennan of this city, vice president of the National Catholic T. A. union; Mrs. Lake, the celebrated orator of the west; J. Wash tngton Logue of Philadelphia, Rev. A R. Doyle of New York and others ot the same class.

Yale VIII be Admitted.

Boston, Dec. 2.-Captain Brewer of the Harvard track athletic team denies the report that any arrangements have been made for track athletic games be- tween Harvard and Pennsylvania. Chairman Beale of the Harvard athletic committee denies all knowledge of such an arrangement. He further stated that Yale men will be admitted to com pete in the open handicap games, which the Harvard Athletic association will hold next spring. The sentiment at Harvard seems to be decidedly against any further athletic rela tiOns with Pennsylvania on account of the spirit shown this fall.

HARVARD AND PENN.

Statement Given Out by the Committee. Philadelphia, Dec. 2.--The following was given out by the Harvard and Uni versity of Pennsylvania faculty con- mittee to-day:
 Since the recent Harvard -Pennsylva- mia football game the newspaper crit Icisrns of decisions rendered by the um- pires and referee have induced a pop iiar belief that the University of Penn sylvania is unwilling to accept the re- suit without protests and explanation It happens also that charges of unfair ness, purporting to emanate from Har- ward, have been preferred publicly against Pennsylvania as respects the playing of Brooke upon her team.
 In the interest of intercollegiate sport 1t seems proper to meet these criticisms by a single official statement to the eff feet that at neither university are the athletic authorities in any way respon- sible for what has been said upon these points. As a matter of fact, the ref cree and umpires were accepted by Pennsylvania and she is content to abide by their decisions, without even the appearance of casting imputations upon their integrity. On the other hand, the question of Brooke's eligibility was fully discussed by the proper authori- ties at each university before the game was played and was made the subject of correspondence and conference. Pennsylvania's decision that Brooke should take part in the game was based upon his eligibility under the rules of that institution and was voluntarily acquiesced in by the Harvard univer- sity authorities. In playing him Penn sylvania broke no rule and violated no principle. (SigneO

Papal Consistory.

London, Dec. 2.-A Rome dispatch says crowds of people gathered in the vatican early this morning upon the occasion of the holding of the public consistory. The papal procession into the Sala Regia, where the consistory was held, began at o'clock. First came the Swiss Guard, followed by the Noble Guard and the papal choir Fol lowing was the pope, carried in the se- dia gestatoria, the chair in which he is carried upon certain occasions. His holiness was followed by number of cardinals and bishops and the members of the papal court. The services were short. Those of the newly appointed cardinals who are now in Rome kissed the foot and hand of the pope and re- ceived from the pope the apostolic em- brace. They then received the red hat from the hands of the pope, who at once retired.

ENDORSED BY THE POPE.
The Rev. Dr. White Made Serious Charge
 Against the Catholics.

Cincinnati, Dec. 2.-Just after the close of the meeting of the Methodist ministers this evening Rev. J. G. White, D. D., an aged Presbyterian minister, for years in St. Louis and now of Cum berland, Md, took the platform and charged that a national conspiracy ex- isted, of which he had positive evil dence, which challenged investigation The upheavals of 1894, he declared, were not labor strikes, as many supposed, but were intended to eliminate in a na- tional revolution.
 This plot had the indorsement, Dr. White continued, of ten archbishops, sixty bishops, Cardinal Gibbons and Pope Leo XIII. At this point Dr. White was interrupted by Chairman Rust and took his seat. Several ministers sprang to their feet and there was not little excitement. Dr. Henderson then pro- nounced the benediction. Dr. White re- quested that hall be secured for him, but no action was taken.

SI1yER SENATORS MEET.
Tt Was Held in Sort of an Informa
 Way.

Washington, Dec. "A conference of senators favorable to the free coinage of silver wassheld this morning. There were present fifteen senators, made up of republicans, democrats and populists, Prominent among these were Senators Teller, Stewart, Call, Allen, Tillman and Mantle. The conference was called for the purpose of enabling those favoring silver to consider the subject in an in- formal way. The spirit that animated those present, however, showed that they intend to keep up the fight in the senate as vigorously as they have in the past. The presidents message Is bound, MT. Teller says, to open up a discussion of the financial question and there can be no discussion of that ques- tion, he asserts, without a discussion of the free coinage question. It was agreed that no point should be waived and that in a general manner the sill yer question should be forced to the front whenever the opportunity pre- sented itself.
 Another conference will probably be held later in the session. There was some talk on the part of few of the more ardent silverites of attempting to reorganize the senate on a silver basis, but this was not taken seriously. It is not thought probable that such an effort will be made. The silver men will content themselves with the cap- ture of the finance committee, they having held this committee during the last congress. The republicans will enter no protest against this plan. as the majority of the senate is favorable to free coinage and any action the com mittee might take if it were organized by the gold standard men would meet with prompt reversion in the senate when the body took a vote. The west ern silver men appear to favor the selection of MT. Wolcott of Colorado for the vacancy caused by the retire. ment of MT. McPherson of New Jer- sey.

The Eighth Ward Nomina,ions.

A we'll known republican writes as follows: Eighth ward republicans, do not fall into error. There are but two ward tickets in the field. Vote the straight and only republican ticket headed by Councilman William H. Forsyth. Mir. Forsyth is the head of the Forsyth Dye Works and Laundry company, an efficient and able business man, who has well won both the sim cere respect and warm regard of the community, and who as councilman, has rendered faithful and able service to the city. He merits & promotion to the aldermanic chamber, and is one of the best candidates for that body in the field to-day on any ticket. His col- leagues on the ticket are all deserving of hearty support. The opposition is the so-caIled independent ticket, and crats upon it. It is the democratic ticket. The democrats have no hope of winning in this ward, except by a compromise ticket. Republicans, bear in mind also that it is essential that the Eighth ward be kept in the ranks of the republican wards, and thereby the strength of the party sustained in the court of common council. With the Eighth lost the republicans will receive a bad blow, and it's strength in the city government will be badly crippled. Vote the republican ticket. Be not led a.stray."

IN HEAYYlGALE.
The Iron Duke Was Observed in Danger
 ous Position.

San Francisco, Dec. 2.-ship Senator, Captain Lewis, which arrived Novem- Der 8, reported having spoken the Ger man bark Iron Duke, September 4, latitude 53.0O south, longitude 65.o0 west. Captain Lewis to-day learned for the first time that the Iron Duke had not yet reached Iquequi.
 "We were laboring in the heaviest gale within my experience" said the captain, when I saw the Iron Duke passing not fifty yards distant. Her port of destination was only a seven day run from where we met. I ob- served that her position was extremely dangerous. We weathered the gale with great difficulty and I am satisfied now that the Iron Duke has gone down with all aboard"
 The Iron Duke has been the subject of much anxious inquiry In shipping circles for many weeks and it is now conceded that she has gone to the bot tom.
