RELIGION OF THE GOVERN oRs.
An Interesting Canvass Among the State
Executives

Chicago October 8.-A Chicago paper
which has made a canvass says: OF the
state governors in the American Union,
80 are avowed believers in religion, 20
are professed Christians. most of them
are regular attendants at worship and
vast majority are contributors to the
expense of religious work. A careful
canvass of the subject made, discloses
these facts. Responses were obtained
from 43 Of the state governors and three
of the territorial executives
OF the state governors, one, Mr.. Culber-
son of Texas, declined to define his senti-
ments, and no one would speak for him,
and another, Gov. Evans of South Caro-
lima, failed to respond. Among them
there are 10 Presbyterians, five Congrega-
tionalists, five Episcopalians, four Metho-
diss, three Unitarians, one Baptist, one
Christian and 16 unconnected with church
organizations. OF these 16 governors I'M
attached to UNCONVENTIONAL organizations
IL attend religious services regularly or
internationally, Ten of them have de-
nominational preferences. Of those who
declare denominational preference, three
are Methodists, three Presbyterians, one
COnSIeSatloHhilst, ONO EplScopdilsn oAu
one Baptist.
The most conspicuous of the Metho-
dist governors are VIM. Mckinley OF Ohio
and Daniel H. Hastings, and, curiously
enough, both are presidential candidates
Other governors who attend thai church
are Stone of Mississippi, Cleaves Of Maine,
Clark of Arkansas, Richards of Montana
and Foster of Louisiana. The Freshly
terrain fold embraces Governors Matthews
of Indiana, Allen of North Dakota,
O'Ferrall of Virginia, Brown of Mary
land, Renfrew Of Oklahoma and Jeffer-
son Gardiner, chief of the Choctaw Nation
in the Indian territory. Gov. Morton of

The parochia1 schools in Manitoba.

New York, October S-A Winnipeg
special says: Archbishop Langevin, head
of the Catholic church in Manitoba,
who was preparing to leave for Rome to
lay before the Pope the position of the
Catholics here inJregard to schools, an
nounced last night that he will postpone
his trip there until there have been furth-
er developments. The prevailing idea
here isssthat His Grace has been Uniformed
that there will be session Of the Cana
dian Parliament at an early day, at which
legislation ordering Manitoba to restore
to Catholics their parochial schools will
be enacted. Should this be done, the
Manitoba government, backed by an
overwhelming Protestant majority will
certainly resist the re-establishment of
parochial schools, even to the point of
revolution

THREE ENGLISH YACHTS.
Best Win be Challenger for Americas
Cup,

New York, October s. Tho fact cabled
from London on Saturday that Chas.
Day Rose is willing to withdraw his ohal-
lengo for the America cup in favor Of
Lord Dudley OF any other members of the
Royal Yacht squadron who wishes to
challenge with a new boat in 1896, has
brought to the surface the news that the
Britons intend keeping the boat builders
busy the next six months.
A yachtsman. q member of the New
York and several other large yacht clubs,
who is..in close touchswith British yachts
men, having recently returned from Eu-
rope, made this statement today, and his
assertio rs carried weight with them. He
said
eyes, I have heard that Rose is will
ing to withdraw, and l am not bit
surprised, knowing the situation over
there as do. The fact is, three boats
are to be built on the other side, and the
fastest of the three will be selected to
meet the American boat. A Scotch SYN
dictate will build one, the Earl of Dudley
another and the Prince Of Vale a third. !"
''Then you believe that Rose will with
draw-that it was an understood thing
from the frst?''
"Nell, no; think. things have devel-
oped rapidly, that's ALL and that, if a
member of the squadron wants to chal-
lenge Rose will not stand in the way"
''Who will design the boats?'
cit is pretty certain that Watson will
design the Princes boat, andshe may also
be chos sen by the Scotch sy Indicate.
"Then Soper will prol a by design the
Earl of Dudley's boat?''
"No, indeed He may look after the
spars and rigging, but he will not de-
sign the boat; that will be done by the
man whom ! consider is the best naval
architect in England today His name
is r. H. F'roude, and believe he will
turn out a splendid yacht. Froude has
all the data at hand that will enable him
to turn out very fast boat. There will
be no expense sparedsin the Earl of Dud-
ley's case, for he is immensely rich, and
designer and builder will be given carte
blanche when the time comes"
"Has not the rulnor that the Prince of
Wales was about to challenge been fire.
quently denied?"
sit probably has, and the denial is
true; he has not challenged. 1t would not
look we'll for him to do,so Another man
will challenge, but the Prince will build
and the challenger can have his boat to
send over here when the time comes, if
she is fast enough. AS commodore of
the royal squadron it would not be good
form for the prince to challenge. Beside
it would be equivalent to the government
challenging.

HIS cause ADanuOneu ny thc
tion-Trying to Shift the Issue to Divert
the Public Eye.
Washington, October s. According to
the general tenor of the information re-
ceived here from various sources some
of which are. Democratic, ~ Republican
situation in Maryland Ail cars to be
steadily improving, and the pre- pc OF
Lowndes's election is regarded as more
promising than it has been at any pre-
yious time since his nomination. The
Republican leaders are cheerful and
confident Of success and report great en-
thusiasm and generous harmony among
the Republican voters throughout the
state, as well as marked increase in the
number of Democrats who openly declare
that they will either vote for Lowndes or
refrain from voting at ALL The reports
from the counties also offer general in
tiications that the Republicans made
greater proportionate gains than the
Democrats in the September registration.
The Republican leaders therefore seem
to be justified in the belief that the total
GepuDl1CaD VOUe lOf LOW I4teS tulS ycthl
will be larger than the combined total
vote for Republican candidates for Con
gress last year, when it exceeded by about
1000 the combined total vote for the DEM
cratic candidates. 1t also seems to be fair
for the Republican leaders to assume,
from, the present aspect of things, that
the total vote for the Germans in state
ticket this year will be relatively smaller
than the total vote, for Democratic can
didaies in 1894. 1t is too early to form
any reasonably fair or accurate estimate
of the probable loss on account of the
Damocatic revolt against GorInanism,
and of course it is utterly impossible to
make any estimate that would be entitled
to respect Of the number of anti German
Democrats who will not only refuse to
vote for Hurst, but will vote for Lownes.
, That Senator German and his partisans
fear a heavy detection is SO evident that
none of them have the courage or auda-
city to dispute it, and the symptoms of
distress and desperation are much strong
er today than they were ten days ago. In
fact, the German leaders virtually admit
that unless they can shift the issues from
Gornanism and its methods and the
question of reassessment, the defeat of the
German Rasin state ticke is inevitable.
