Arch hbishop Ireland on the Altitude of
 Catholics.
Would Be Found in the Van if America Engaged
 in War.
Denounces as Infamous the Intin1a- ton That the Pope Favors
 Spain.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, March 11.-"No true
 American Catholic will think of espous- ing the cause of Spain against that Of this country, because the former Is Q Catholic nation" said Archbishop Ire
 land In an interview here to-day. ITO
 do that Is to set ones self down as traitorously inclined to the teachings of this religion, as well as 10 the coun- try which it is his bounden duty to de- fend against all enemies, both internal as well as external"
 The words of the Archbishop were in
 reply to a question as to what he
 thought of the advice alleged to have
 been given by Catholic priest in New York State to his parishioners. Arch bishop Ireland is en route to his nome in St. Paul from Washington, where ne had been for several days.
 Ut Is an infamous suggestion, he continued, and it would seem as if 1t
 could emanate only from bitter en-
 emy of the faith, for it Is directly op-
 posed in every way to the spirit or the teachings of Catholicism.
 His attention was called also to a
 suggestion, which has been the subject of some discussion, that the Pope S sympathies in the pending controversy
 with Spain were strongly enlisted on | the SlOe or that nation because OI US religious affiliations.
 Tn so far as implying that the Pope will use his offices to aid Spain as against this country, the suggestion is
 as infamous as the one first mentioned. Whatever action he may take in this
 matter will be with the single idea of
 averting, if possible, a war between two Christian nations. He looks upon | the possibility of war between this
 country and Spain with horror. and. as 1 the Vice Regent of God, considers it his | bounden duty to help bring about an l between the two nations. That is the
 only way in which his influence is, or
 only way in which it's influence is, or
 will be, eXerted.'
 | Then, referring to the situation in this country, the Archbishop said:
 President Mckinley is proving him. | self pre-eminently the man of the hour
 and occasion. His course throughout i the present painful and trying crisis 1 has been marked by a loftiness of pur- ! pose, a serenity and dignity of conducr 1 which have commanded the respect and admiration of his pronounced political | enemies. This was abundantly shown l by the remarkable and impressive ac- 1 ton of Congress in unheSitatingly
 placing the sweeping powers it did ;Il l his hands. l think every one has come
 to repose the utmost confidence in his
 wisdom and ability to meet whatever
 exigencieS may arise In connection with 1 the present unfortunate situation"

TWICE BUNK0ED
 BY ONE MAN
After Being Landed Once Albert Freeman Swallows the
 Hook Again.
Refused 70 Prosecute His Friend for the First Offense, but Wishes
 He Had.

The trusting nature of Albert Freeman received rude shock yesterday when he awoke to a realization of the fact that he had been bunkoed for the second time by a man whom he had refused to prose- cute for the first offense
 Freeman Is the rancher and mining man whom Daniel O'Brien chloroformed and robbed at the Golden Eagle Hotel last Saturday night while the two were sleep ing in the same bed. UBrien was cap tured by the police, and when Freeman saw him behind the bars his heart went out to the friend in trouble and he was 10th to believe that one he had befriended could be guilty of having robbed him. Feeling as he did 1t was an easy matter for O'Brien to convince the rancher that the drugging and robbing had been done by the liquor which O'Brien had con- sumed in quantities, so the two came to a satisfactory understanding, and Free man. rejoicing that he was mistaken in thinking his friend an ungrateful thief, refused to prosecute the case.
 Released from the City Prison, O'Brien immediately began to scheme to regain possession of the $40 in cash and the $50 money order which had been taken from hiro and returned to Freeman. To ac- complish this end he called in the assist ance of one and possibly two accomplices. A man who claimed to be lawyer stopped O'Brien Id Freeman in the cor riders of the Hall and demanded from the former mbursement for hav- ing secured his release. O'Brien was without a cent, so his confiding friend, Freeman. was appealed to, and not realiz- ing that this was only second attempt to rob him, delivered over the $40 in ereenbacks to the lawyer" His friend was profuse in his thanks. but still had his eye on the money order.
 As the two loving friends walked up the street O'Brien unfolded a tale to Free man that he had a letter of introduction to a lawyer in the Parrott building, from whom he could secure a loan of $200 by means of which they could go up to Washington and gain untold wealth by working the mines which O'Brien claimed to own. The plan suited Free man exactly. and long conference was held with the lawyer" The entire case was gone over and the deed to the Wash inpton mines was pronounced to be valid. D1rine the conversation and the exam ination of papers the money order by some means came into the possession of O,Rrten. and at last accounts he still had if Soon after leaving the lawyers office Mir O'Brien lost his friend, and now Freeman is stranded here without cent. The police have been notified of the af- fair but 1t is doubtful if O Brien is now ir inc city as he would hardly risk the nbances of being arrested a second time. A letter from Los Angeles from parties n,bo heard of the first arrest says that C,Rrien is wanted there for working the Some game he did on Freeman.

How the AutOnOmiStS at Havana Scored a
 Failure.
Find That the American Repre- sentative Is Stronger Than Ever in the Service of
 His Country.

they had nisjudged President McKin- ley and General Lee and the situation generally was shown by the result. President Mckinley cabled General
 Woodford to inform Spain that he would not for an instant consider Gen. eral Lees recall. He had recently ex- pressed entire appreciation of Consul General Lees course In Havana, and saw no reason to alter his opinion.
 General Lee knew 1t and had smiled at the confidence of the autonomists who marked him for slaughter He still smiles now that the more radical of the automists in Havana find him more firmly intrenched than ever.
 When it was reported from Madrid that Spain had demanded the recall of General Lee, the story was immediate ly denied. True, Spain had not de manded' the recall, but she had come as near to it as she believed was safe and make a mistake at that. This Is the whole story.
