REMOVAL.

New York, Oct. s.-The deposition OF
Bishop Keane from the rectorship of
the Catholic university at Washington,
which vas announced Immediately at
ter the arrival of Mgr. Martinelli, the
new papal delegate. has been regarded
rs the first sign of a movement that il
to shake the entire American Catholic
hierarchy.
{. There has been friction between the
uftra-montane and liberal factions eyer
since Archbishop Ireland took his men,
orabIe stand on the American school
question. A prominent laysnan Of New
York, whose influence 1t Rome has al
ways been recognised. says:
ut means nothing les than q resto-
ration Of the supremacy ot the ultra
montana and clerical party In the Unit
ed States. Al such 1t must be regarded
~ the most important in the history Of
the church since Archbishop Ireland
appealed to Rome to sustain him a
against the clertcals and especially thu
archbishop Of New York IN the famous
school question"

STILL IN THE BALANCE.

Denver. Colo, Oct. S.-Greeley Whit
ford. acting as attorney for the repub-
!icans. applied to the supreme court to-
day to issue a writ OF mandamus to
compel Secretary of State McGaffey to
certify to the various county clerks the
Mckinley nominations for electors and
state officers. Justice Hayt ruled that
the application would first have to be
brought before the district court in ac-
cordance with the ommon legal usage.
Mr.. Whitford states he will make ap-
plication to the district court for a writ
of mandamus. and in case the court
goes gaainst the Mckinley interest ar
appeal will be taken to the supreme
court. Whitford is anxious to find out
which way the supreme court will de-
eide the Patterson-Waite controversy,
for Secretary McGaffey based his de-
cision on Judge Johnson's order now
before the supreme court OF appeals. II
the supreme court decides to allow the
Johnson order to stand the Mckinley
people will have no ballot in Colorado.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. Sin response to
the inquiry from the Journal, Senator
Jones, chairman Of the democratic ma
tionaI committee wired the following:

self against 1t the united strength Of the
administration, repub leans, populists
and prohibitfonists, . majority Of 20
900 would have been regarded as a good
victory. It appears from the returns
received we have nearly double that.
having made gains IN nearly every
county. I consider the result as assur-
ing Bryan Of ama5ortty Of not less than
$1,000 or 10000 in November. 1t shows
that the people are with US in the fight
and they cannot be diverted by any sub
ordinate issues whether Of local or ma

dent that Bryan will not only carry ev-
cry southern state but will also carry
every state west Of the Mississippi river

tral western states. insuring him an

Chicago, Oct. S.-A special to the
Journal from Clinton, Iowa. says:
W. H.. Harvey. author Of Coin"
narrowly escaped being assaulted at a
meeting here, when he spoke on free
silver. but turned to attack Generals
Sickles, Alger. Howard, and others in
the celebrated car of veterans who are
now travelling through Iowa and ILL
nois. He referred to the generals as
"old wrecks Of the rebellion. who have
lost their honor and patriotism and are
tools Of political shylocks." His words
were greeted by a storm Of Kisses. and
cries OF shame, shame" which rend-
cred it impossible for him to make him
self heard. He tried to continue, but
gave it up as the storm increased.
A large number OF Grand Army men
were in the hall and took his words as
almost a personal affront. There were
loud yells OF Throw him out!' Drag
