which he kindly invited all reform par
ties to agree upon what was wanted and
then make national nominations.
An address by Gideon t. Stewart OF
Ohio on prohibition was read together

got into a discussion on the tariff.

LAID TO REST.
Peter Richard Kenricls, Late Archbishop of
the Diocese of st. Louis.

ST. Louis, March 11.--In a picturesque
spot in Calvary cemetery, surrounded by
the graves of over a score of priests, re-
pose the mortal remains of Peter Rich
ard Kenrick, lately archbishop of the
diocese of st. Louis, and for five decades
a heroic figure in the calendar of the
Catholic church of America. The venera-
BILE archbishop at the time of his death
was the oldest Catholic bishop in the
world, and had his life been spared one
more day he would have reached the
siXty-fourth anniversary of his ordina-
ton as a priest. The funeral services
were held this morning in the old cathe-
dral on Walnut street, and were attended
byn1r eaeelo0l0j0p
by nearly 10000 people, many of whom
had stood since early dawn in the cold
and penetrating wind awaiting the OPEN
ing of the church doors. The doors of
the cathedral were thrown open to the
public at o'clock, and inside of ten min
utes the church which seats but 800
people, held congregation of nearly
twice that number. The doors were then
closed, and the assembled multitude was
content to- wait for over three hours until
the casket bearing the remains of the late
archbishop were conveyed to the hearse
and the funeral procession began its
march to Calvary cemetery. Archbishop
Kahn of the st. Louis diocese was the
celebrant of the mass, and Archbishop
Ryan of Philadelphia preached the funer
al sermon. Cardinal Gibbons, several
archbshops and bishops and about 300
priests were present,

Richmond, Va, March ia Newport
News special to the Dispatch says The
crew of the schooner James B. Ogden,
Capt James Summers, which sailed from
this city last week for Allyns Point with
a cargo of coal, was brought back last
night, having been rescued from their
vessel last Friday just before she foun-
dered, 260 miles from Cape Henry. The
Ogden encountered terrific gales soon
after passing through the capes, and
for two days she was tossed about like
a cookie shell. The crew had a terrible
experience Eugene Nickerson, the first
mate, had his leg broken during the
hurricane. There was 8 feet of water in
the Inflated schooner when she was de-
serted by her crew. The foundered
schooner was owned by A. C. Newberry
and others of New York

of positiveness, enough was gathered
from. different sources to put the rumor
on pretty solid foundation.
IT is said that the steamer which will
take the expedition is ready to sail at
any moment and it is possible that the
men and arms and ammunition, which
will form the vessels cargo are even
now waiting for the ship at some point
on the New Jersey coast. When the
steamer arrives off this point, provided
that the above supposition is true she
will probably lay to outside the three
mile limit and the men and arms will be
taken aboard in boats. If the expedition
was to have started tonight, as rumored,
ii is likely that the prevailing gale may
delay the departure. On one point only
would the local Cuban leaders talk.
They assert positively that Gen. Calixto
Garcia will head no more expeditions.
While crediting General Garcia with all
patriotism and loyalty to the Cuban
cause, they say he is not cireumspect
enough, and that he was mainly respon-
sible for the failure of the expedition that
came to grief under his leadership.

CAN'T CATCH THE REBELS.
The Failure Is Attributed TO Telegraph 0p-
erator-Spainish Excuses are
Reported Daily

Havana, March II, via Key West, Fla,
March 11.--Gomez, Maceo, Laeret and
other leaders have united just east of the
Havana line near Nueva Paz 1t is sup
posed their intention is to return to this
province. The troops have made several
combinations for the purpose of crush
ing Maceo and Gomez separately, but all
failed. One is blamed upon the tele-
graph operators failure to deliver mes
sages. This is said to be an excuse, the
charge against the operator not being
proven. There is considerable uneasi-
ness in official circles in regard to the
concentration of rebel forces. Taken in
connection with rumors that the main
portion of CollaZo's expedition with am
munition and also that CaliXto Garcia
and twenty others have just landed, it
may mean the rebels want to be pre-
pared to strike an effective blow. The
news of the first action by congress has
already reached the rebel camps. The
union of forces aggregating 700 men
may be the result.
During the past ten days the cane has
been burned in all parts of Matanzas,
showing the impossibility of resuming
grinding.
All the recent encounters with Gomez
and Maceo We're nothing but outpost
fights and losses were trining on both
sides. A report has reached here that
General Pando has been defeated near
Caibarian, but it is impossible to obtain
details. The encounter is not mentioned
in cfiicia! reports. 1t is now learned the
attack upon Sagua de Namo, reported
as a government victory, resulted in the
rebels capturing the town and using can
non in the bombardment. The insur-
gents in this province also have several
field guns, supposed to have been taken
from the Spanish troops
Domingo Detarte owner of the Oyalita
estate, has filed a claim with the French
consul for the destruction of property by
Spanish troops and also for insult to the
French flag. Manager Duarte was shot
while raising the flag. The consul has
cabled details to Paris.
Refugees from the interior districts
continue to arrive. They report great
restitution in all districts. The opera
tions of both armies have impoverished
the country. The stoppage of cutting
and grinding of cane and shipment of
other crops is reducing peaceful inhab-
tants to deplorable condition.
The government proclamation decar-
ing property of absenteeS liable to confs-
cation is denounced.
Reports of excuses committed by
Spanish troops reach here daily. Making
allowances for Cuban eXaggeration prob
ably some truth remains. No one has
been yet punished for the Guatao horrors.
The fifteen peaceable citizens taken from
their homes there still remain in Moro
castle. There is one American among
them and nearly dozen other American
citizens anguish in Spanish dungeons,
with no prospect of an early trial and re-
lease although in most cases there is
no evidence of guilt

First National bank of Germantown by
the liberal use of giant powder. The
robbers, who were evidently not profess

bank room was wrecked. The people of
the town were aroused and the criminals
fled. The door of the vault, which
weighed 800 pounds. was blown 80 feet.
In the vault were $4,000 in cash besides
many securities. The bank officials were
puzzled to know how the visitors escaped
beinP blown to pieces.

Sources of Revenue.

New York Herald.
Speaker Reed is said to hold that the
house cannot pass bill to increase the
internal tax on beer 81 a barrel because
it is against republican principle"
Since when? Under the republican in
ternal tax law over $32,000,00O was col
lected from beer in 1892. What 'prin-
ple'' is violated in increasing the tax?
1t is against history and existing facts
to say that the republican party favors
raising the revenue for the support Of
the government from tariff duties alone
or even chiefly. In 1866, under republi-
can laws, the government collected from
internal revenue taxes $309, 226, 900,
against only $179,000000 from customs
duties. If it be said that this was for
war purposes, so is the proposed revival
of one of these taxes. In 1892 the last
year of the Mckinley act, the receipts
from Internal taxes were 1854 .000, 900, and
from customs duties SIT 100000.
