Catholic church, for the archdiocese of
st. Louis, the first held in FORTY
four years, has promulgated the de-
crees of the council of Baltimore.
which Archbishop Kenrick permitted
to lie dormant, The DEGREES around
which most interest cen tiers are those
which relate to marriages, parochial
schools and the status of German
parishes. That relating to marriages
is mandatory, and provides that all
marriages be solemnized in the parish
of the bride, and that they be held in
the morning, SO that the nuptial bless
ing may be given. The decree relating
to parochial schools provides that
parents may send their children to
any Catholic school in the city, but
that they must be sent to Catholic and
not public schools. The decree re-
lating to German parishes gives them
equal rights and standing with the
English parishes.

A HAVANA correspondent of the Lon
don Times declares that careful study
convinces him that, despite serious
losses, the rebels are holding their own
against the troops. The wealthy agri-
cultural districts are now completely
under rebel control, and the whole
sympathy of the islanders is with the
rebels. Even Havana, which is more
Span ish than any other town or dis
trict. is permeated with animosity to-
ward Spanish rule, and is honey
combed with intriguers on behalf of
the rebellion. 1t is quite false to call
it a color struggle. In the fighting
ranks of the insurgents the proportion
is 20 per cent. of whites to 80 per cent
of negroes.

that on the night before, between
the hours of IL and II o'clock, his
store was entered by burglars and
his safe was blown open and roo
bed of $500.
MIR. Abat is positive that the
robbery was committed by profess
sionals, As they drilled hole
through thu iron doors Of tn" safe
and filed it with powder and blew
npen the outside and also the in.
side doors. He says that he had.
besides the money stolen, quite a
lot OF papers and several checks,
which were left scattered about on
the floor.
He thinks the burglars must
have had key to fit the door of
the store; for after securing the
DootF,. they locked the door just
az he had left it when closing up
the night before. The tools used
by the thieves in opening the safe,
were found in the store the next
morning, and were identified by
Mr. Harrison; the foreman Of the
Bridge and Building company of
the Texas s. Pacific Railway,
as his property, hating been
stolen from his shop the night
before.
