1t has not yet been decided how many
bishops will be chosen, but the plan re-
Gently proposed by Bishop Walden is
meeting with favor At present there are
sixteen bishops. Twelve are located in
this country two are missionary bishops
in Africa and India, and two are occupied
in missionary work in various countries.
Bishop Walden suggested that the two
missionary bishops be made full fledged
bishops and given episcopal residences in
Africa and India, and that five additional
bishops be created with episcopal resi-
dences, one to be assigned to India, am
other to China, third to Japan, a fourth
to Europe and a fifth to South America.
He thought twelve bishops would then be
able to perform the work in this country,
which is now done by fourteen men, be-
cause they would be relieved of the foreign
work. If that suggestion is followed five
new bishops will be elected and the total
number increased to twenty-one Already
some lively electioneering is being done,
and when the voting begins the contest

Says Cleveland VIII be Nominated.

SPRINGFIELD, o., May 11--John w.
Bookwalter, the Democratic candidate for
governor of Ohio in 1887, predicts that
Grover Cleveland will be nominated for
the fourth time at the Chicago conven-
tion in July He eulogizes the president
as the leader of tariff reform, and says he
is now wanted as the leader of the war
party in this country. Mr.. BoOkwalter
believes that the conditions in foreign af-
fairs, especially with Great Brition and
Spain, will be such two months hence as
to compel the Democr acy to take up Pres
ident Cleveland, and that the war senti-
ment will be in his favor in November.
He says the administration will be heard
from at the proper time on the Cuban
question and also on the Venezuelan
boundary, and then it will be Cleveland s
call.

.LATRADA STEALS AWAY.
The Filibustering Steamer Prob
ably Again Bound for Cuba,
THE DETECTIVES EASILY FOOLED

How the Cargo ofa Lighter, Probably Con
sisting of Arms ana Ammunition, Mys-
teriously Disappeared While the sleuths
Were on Its Track.
NEW YORK, May ia great deal OF
mystery surrounds the movements of the
American steamship Laurada, which came
into port Saturday and anchored off Lib
erty Island. 1t was generally believed
that the Laurada had been chartered by
the Cuban iunta for the purpose of CON
veying another fllibustering expedition to
Cuba.
When the Laurada came into port it was
observed that she was drawing very little
water, and was apparently in ballast. The
news of her arrival was soon made known
to the Spanish consul general who hur-
ried to the barge office where he is said to
have held a conference with United States
Marshal Mccarthy
Meantime it appears that the consul
general had communicated with his subor-
dinates, who kept close watch on the
leaders of the Laurada. They learned that
n lighter, the name of which could not be
ascertained, had made fast at pier H. East
river The detectives watched the deliv
cry of many boxes and cases on board the
lighter. All this time tug was in wait
ing for the detectives at pier 3, East river.
At the barge office the revenue cutters
Hudson and Chandler were also under
steam
After the lighter had received her cargo
she steamed up the river and took posi-
tion off Corlear's Hook, where she
anchored. The tug containing the detec-
tives followed in her wake, and lay in the
middle of the river until the lighter, hug
| ging the Brooklyn shore, went down the
river, passing through Buttermilk chan
mel
AS the lighter was going by Governor
Island, by way of the channel, the tugput
back for pier g. where, it is said the de-
tectives met Consul General Baldesano
and Marshal Mccarthy. They were evil
IDENTIFY instructed TO continue their pur-
suit of the lighter, as the tug steamed
across the river through Buttermilk chan
mel to Atlantic Basin, where the lighter
was found warped to u dock. Her cargo
had been removed.
The tug then proceeded over to where
the Laurada lay, and dropped anchor tc
the south of Bedloe's Island. Smoke was
pouring from the tunnels of the steam
ship, and there was much hustle and ac
tivity on deck. Half an hour later the
Laurada steamed down the bay and passed
out at Quarantine.
The Laurada was met off Montauk Point
by the tug Commander with the barges
Relief and Green Point in tow, and about
"a hundred Cubans, together with several
tons of arms and ammunition, were trans
ferred to the Laurada, which at once put
out to sea-
