Havana. Aug. 22.-s. p. m.-lDelayed in
transmission)--(From q Spanish CORES
pondent)-The authorities have declined
to allow the landing of a number of
American correspondents who arrived off
the harbor this morning from Santiago de
Cuba, among them representatives of the
New York Herald, New York World, Chi
cago Record, New York Evening Post and
Philadelphia Press.
English residents have strenuously OBJ
jected to the governments action and
Mr.. Jerome the British consul, accom-
panied by Captain Stewart Brice. son OF
former United States Senator Brice,
called upon General Blanco and urged
him to allow the correspondents to land.
General Blanco, however, declined to
comply with the request, on the ground
that their presence in Havana, prior to
the arrival of the military commissioners
from the United States, might prejudice
the work of the commissioners while dis
cussing peace details.
His attitude is supported by the opin-
ion of intelligent Spaniards, for, although
nothing of a disa greeable nature would
be expected to follow the presence of the
correspondents in the city, it would be i'm
possible for the authorities, however ear
nest their wishes, to guarantee the safety
Of the correspondents against the act Of
some fanatic.

GERMAN ROMAN CATHOLICS
Addressed by Their Sreat Leader, DIR
Lieber. at milwaukee,

Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 22.-With the
public festivities concluded and the visi-
tors departed, the $40 delegates to the
forty-third annual convention of the Ger
man Roman Catholic Central Society got
down to bushes today. { Previous to the
business meeting today the delegates as
sembled at st. Antouius Church, where
solemn requiem mass was celebrated for
the souls of departed members. After the
services the delegates proceeded to the
Deutscher Mannerverein Hall. where the
business session are being conducted
President Adolph Weber of Racine
called the convention to order. He stated
that the annual report of the financial
SECRETARY shows a membership OF about
$4,000, representing 575 societies. During
the year e.6S1 sick members were paid
benefits aggregating s16l,5S9. The heirs
Of 1853 members were paid s92.1S5. The
amount of cash now in the treasury is
$500, 900. Twenty-three new societies
were admitted during the year.
The opening was made auspicion by the
address OF DR.. Ernest Maria Lieber, the
ilustrious leader of the Centrist party In
Tie man IcltuSldS X WHO Was TeCtiptu
with uproarous applause. DIR. Lieber
thanked the convention for the cordial re-
ception given him. He then referred to
the time Of his first visit to this country,
ten years ago, when he first appreciated
the character and mission of the Central
society. He had grown better acquainted
on his second visit and could now say
that he was a great admirer of the Cen
trail society. He regretted very much that
little attention is paid in Germany 10
American affairs and believed that there
was no better organization in existence
calculated to preserve and sustain the
German language and German thought.
The doctor then referred TO his history
of the Centrist party as an example wor-
thy OF emulation. He warmed against
pessimism. Modesty, in his opinion. was
the greatest parliamentary vice. and that
modesty was a national fault with the
Germans. But no matter how poor the
prospect the course Of action should b.
"alI for the Catholics" and when at the
time Of the announcement OF that pro-
gram in Germany many became weak
kneed and doubtful. the motto was sup
plemented with the words "and through
Catholic people"
At the close Of Or. Lieber's address q
recess was taken.

year, Mrs. Lynch decided 10 accept the
offer. With more than 1900 clear profit
on the transaction she gave up the prem
ises and moved down 10 her present es-
tablshment. at Union Square and Four
teenth street.
Mrs. Lynch has always been a strictly
industrious business woman. and during
the half century of her career has never
missed a day from behind the diamond
counter. except a short period each sum-
mer. when she made her regular trip
abroad to renew her stock OF gems
When pink pearls began to be found in
the Bahamas. Mrs. Lynch was the first
dealer 10 see their value She gave an
order for sl25.00o worth. and when they
reached New York no one would buy
them. Not TO be beaten. Mrs Lynch sent
the whole lot 10 Paris, and, Through her
agent, Mr.. Crouch, got an order from the
Empress Eugene for a crown, necklace
and bracelets of the gems. Then the
fashion was set.
Mrs. Lynch is religious. and IS a faith
full member OF the Roman Cotholic church
she is. despite her religious feyor. exceed
ingly superstiti0us IN her every day life.
She never could endure the slight OF a
c. oss eyed person entering her shop. and
If one Hooked at her she would jump in
alarm. expecting the balance OF her days
business TO be disastrous.
In financial affairs. Mrs Lynch was very
tight-fisted. The formal closing Of any
to one of her sons-usually the eldest.
The diamond expert has been in the con-
f1dence of many prominent New Workers.
who have found it convenient. in time of
need. to dispose Of family jewels or plate
without caring for publicity.
The fame of the store as a market for
diamonds was So widespread that when
a year of so ago the Burdens were robbed
of rich family Jewels by their butter, they
sent note to Mrs. Lynch asking her aid
in recovering the property.
Mrs. Lynch has never had social ambi
tions, and few people have ever seen her
in any public place other than her store
and her church. She has always a plat
form behind her diamond counter 90 stand
upon, and tot ne curious who visit her
shop merely for the sake of getting a
look at so interesting a parsonage, she ap-
pears as a tan, handsome, gray-haired old
lady of the Martha Washington type.
At the hour for closing she always
leaves in a cab or closed carriage, accom-
panied by one of her sons.
Her only appearance worthy Of note in
public place was during the opera sea-
son when Colonel Mapleson held sway at
the Academy of Music.
Mrs. Lynch then received tickets from
the enterprising impresario in considera-
ton of the loan of a magnificent set of
diamonds worn by Adelina Patti, and
which the colonel it is said, claimed were
the singers own gems, and of world wide
celebrity.

ism sovereignty in Cuba, Porto Rico and
the Antilles. this provision for the Span
ism nomination Of bishops becomes mop
erative, anl some system must take its
place. For the present, II is said, the
change will occasion no violent upheaval
among the bishops and clergy of these

and the change of system will be inaugu
