LONDON, Oct. 27.-Tne Pail Mail Ga
zette publishes dispatch from Rome
which says:
The presidential election of the United
States is the absorbing topic at the Vati-
can, the explanation being the strides
which Catholicism has made in America,
which is now one of the church's largest
sources of income.
A recognized standing danger of Ro-
manism in the United States is the inde-
able since the time of Plus TX. The
latter fully recognized that these bishops
enjoyed greater power than their breth-
rem elsewhere and showed that he un-
derstood this by his witty answer to
some English priests who asked for GER
tain privileges. He said: "I am, as
you say, the pope; yet cannot accede
to your request, but, added the pontiff,
with slight twinkle in his eye, 81 can
show you way to obtain your DESIRE
Go to America. for there the bishops
are greater than the nope.''
On the accession of Pope Leo matters
assumed different aspect. He charged
Monsignor Satolli with the duty of init
mating to the bishops in unmistakable
language the limit of their powers and
the result was something like a split,
which it took Monsignor Satolli two
years to heal. But his mission had good
results.
The correspondent of the Pail Mall Ga
zette remarks that the church does not
desire its representatives in America to
take an active part in the campaign.

Popocratic Falsehoods.

CHICAGO, Oct. 27.-[Special to THE
CHRoNIcLEl Every day brings its new
set of falsehoods to influence voters to
support the Popocratic ticket. The
latest was statement put into circula-
tion yesterday to the effect that Mar
shall Field, Phil Armour, Lyman. j.
Gage, and several other distinguished
business men of Chicago had declared
for free silver. The report offered as an
explanation of this surprising statement
was the assertion that those gentlemen
had found "the pressure from the busl-
ness people of the West so great and the
prospect of Bryan defeat so bright that
they had been forced to this step''
These reports were industriously dis
tributed among the workingmen and
employees all over the city and at rail-
way yards and stations and created a
visible effect, until investigation showed
every one of the statements to be abso-
lutely false, only few minutes of time
was required to obtain a definite denial
from each of those gentlemen of the
truth of the rumors, but the comments
and excitement which the announce.
ment created showed how dangerous
false statements of this kind are liable
to be IN the closing hours of the cam
paign and how the public should be or
their guard against them.

Five Men Probably Fatally Burned by .

RACINE, Wis, March 4.-By the cxplo-
sion Of q gasoline tank in the engine de-
pGrtment in the Racine Hardware com.
pany at West Union Junction that por-
tion Of the works was destroyed with q
loss Of about sl5O,OOO and five men were
probably fatally burned. In n moment
the large building was in flames and
panic spread among the thirty-five men
employed in the department.. The men
rushed pell-mell for the windows and
leaped to the ground below, u distance of
twenty feet. Many Of them were badly
bruised and some have broken bones.
Five OF the men were more unfortunate
and were caught in q mass of flames. Be.
fore they could reach the outside world
they were terribly burned about the face,
arms and bodies. The names of those
burned are: Al. King, about the head and
body; George Nichols, about head, face
and body; John Fitch. face and hands;
George Straton, head, hands and body;
G. Anderson. face and hands. The physic.
ians state that the men are SO badly burned
b. inhaling SO much OF the deadly gas
that their recovery Is doubtful.
The cause OF the explosion is mystery
and the superintendent cannot throw any
light on 1t at this time. The first init.
nation Of the affair was when the explo-
sion occurred. I:sshook all the buildings
in the vicinity of the works and people
rushed from their homes to locate the
trouble. The company has insurance in
twelve different companies and the ag.
gregate insurance will reach about s75.'

The above dispatch will serve to clear
up several obscure points in the news that

goes far to corroborate the report. Tho
fact Of there having been two Ku:hna-

received from really reliable source. It
was pointed out that If the report came
from the merchant kuchnareH in va

would have no special facilities for get

PITTsBURG, March 4.-One Of the most
stupendous swindling operations that has
occurred in this city in recent years has
been brought to light by the disappear
ance Of John Cowan, of the lumber firm
Of w. 6. Cowan & Sons who left Pitts
bug last Saturday morning and whose
whereabouts are unknown. The amount
Of his defalcation, 1t is said, will aggre-
gate between &10O, 900 and e15O, OO0, the most
Of which he Is supposed to have carried
away with him. The victims Cowan has
left behind him include lumbermen in
every section Of the country, statesmen and
employees in his Office, and his stcpmother,
the widow of his father, whom he has left
financially ruined. her little fortune Of
about sl5, ,OOO and property valued at $20-
600 being entirely swept away.

The largest creditors are L. A. White,
lumber manufacturer Of Corey. who places
his loss at almost s2o. .OOd, and William
Ahlers, Of the Ahlers Lumber company
Of Allegheny, whose loss will be about
elSOOO. Other large creditors who say
they have no hope Of realizing anything
on their claims are NJ. d. Rowland, of

scoundrel Leaves a Young Wife.
Cowan is % years old and has been mar
ricd about a year. All the money he left
his wife was s14. w. G. Cowan, the father
Of the missing man, died about six
months ago, since which time all of the
crookedness charged has been accom-
plished. At the time Of the elder Cowan's
death the business was earning about
$4,000 a year. Creditors say the young
ends by trading ON his fathers good name
How He Swindled Mr.. White.
One of the means used by Cowan is cited
by l.. A. White, of Cory, Pa. who says
the manner in which he was taken in was
by giving COwan accommodation paper
for various amounts. These notes he
would raise to two, three or four times
the original amount, discount them, and
put the cash in his own pocket. On the
night Of his fathers death young Cowan
told his step-mother that unless she would
sign articles Of copartnership with him,
placing the management Of the business
in his hands entirely, the firm would go
to the wall. She did as requested and is
now Impoverished.
