BISHOP M'CABE SPEAKS.
He Thinks the Action Of Congress on
Arbitration Was a Mistake..Regrets
that Opportunities Have Been Lost.

Pittsburg. May 24-Bishop c. c. Nc
Cabe. probably better known as Chap
lain McCabe, of the Methodist Eplsco-
pal church, was in the city today en-
route west to lock after church inter-
ests.
In speaking of the failure to adopt
the arbitration treaty, Bishop McCabe
scored congress and said that the
chance for the American people to set
an example to the world in the general
movement for international peace has
been lost.
1T is deeply to be regretted said
he. Such an opportunity for planting
the seeds for the abolition of wars
among the civilized nations Of the
globe should not have been passed by.
"Chauncey NJ. Depew. in his speech
has given the impression that we. as
nation, are hostile toward the English.
This is certainly an expression the peo-
pie of the United States do not de-
serve and 1t places them in the wrong
light. OF course, there are many per-
sons who do not feel kindly toward
England, but they do not compose the
better classes of our citizens nor are
in the majority. / have written a let
ter to Lord Salisbury on this subject
and have informed him that Mr.. De-
pew's remarks do not represent the
sentiment of our glorious and peacs-
loving country"

An opinion from Attorney General
