ment can be reached inside of an hour the
club will select the referee according to

TIE Philadelphia Inquirer publishes
the following; A friend Of Col Henry
DUPONT called on prominent Democratic
ex. Senator who Is an able lawyer and who
served several years as a member of the
Senate Judiciary Committee with Ed
munds, Thurman, Conkling and Hoar,
and requested his views concerning the
Dupont case, and whether 1t could be re-
opened and calledup again In the Senate?
The Ex-senator, who is thoroughly ia
m liar with all the Senatorial contested
cases from thai Of Senator Stockton down
to the present time, gave 1t as his opinion
that the Dupont case was res adjudicatus;
that the case, therefore, could not be re-
opened or called up, unless there was new
ev dence bearing upon the case, and then
it would have to go again before the Com.
mittee on Privileges and Elections for ex-
animation and report.
Even II the case could be reopehed and
called up again in the Senate it is not at
all likely that any change would be made
in tho vote from that of last session, when
all the Democrats and Populists voted
solidly against the seating Of DUPONT.

BISHOP BONACUM BEATEN.
Fathers Murphy and Fitzgerald Sustained
Oh Every Material Point


DUBUQrE, Ia. Dec 1.-The final denis-
ion in the case of Bishop BonaCum aud
his priests, Fathers Murphy and Fitz-
gerald was rendered last night. Tho
priests are sustained at every material
point. The case attracted much attention
in church circle, and has been before this
public since April, 1893, when Bishop
BUnacum, of the Nebraska Catholic do
cese, attempted to discipline Fathers Fitz
gerald and Murphy for alleged infraction
Of rules, They denied his authority to
eXpel them from the priesthood and ap-
lcalcd to Rome.
The case was remanded back to the met
Topolitnn court here, and after several
lIstponemcnts came up a few months ago,
Chen testimony was heard. This was re-
frrred to Father p. A. Baart, of Marshall,
Mich. He examined the testimony on both
sides, as well as the church authorities,
and then presented his findings to the
ecclesiastical court last night sustaining
the priests and against the course pursued
by Bishop Bonacum. The findings were
approved by the court This decision is
final, and ends case that has been fought
through all the church courts and six
times in the civil courts, the decision of
the latter having always been against tho
bishop.
The decision restores Fathers Fitzgerald
and Murphy to priesthood, gives them tho
parishes held before their expulsion by
Bonacum, and prohibits the bishop from
causing them further trouble on account
Of their relationship to both parties
