ARCHBIsHOP IRELAND ON WAR.
Eloquent Words by the Eminent
Catholic PreIate.

Catholic Prelate.
st. Paul, Mimi, July 10-The observance
of the Presidents proclamation of thanks
giving for victory and prayer for peace,
which began in the Jewish synagogues in
this city yesterday, was generally OBJ
served throughout the Northwest to-day,
all denominations, Protestants and Cath
Ole alike, giving heed to the request of
the President.
Archbishop Ireland chose the war; and
this proclamation by the President as a
theme for a sermon at the Cathedral to-
day.
In the course of his sermon he said
Let us praise and thank God. He bIesses
us in the war our armies wage to-day
Victory follows victory; the starry banner
waves triumphant in Cuba and the far
distant Philippines
Small has been the sacrifices demanded
as the price of victories.
"WonderOusly great is the result of our
victories.
"A new America has risen up.
"A new era has dawued in our history
America, as never before, is conscious
Of her power; the nations of the earth as
never before understand her power
The child Of a century is a giantess
whose arms reach beyond her own vast
continent across distant oceans. Goa, in
deed, has blessed her.
THE chieftain of America prays for
peace and bids the people pray for peace
Magnanimous Mckinley! worthy chieftaln
OF great people He courted peace be-
fore war; he did all he could TO avert war,
to secure by peace all the benefcent re-
suits which war could bring.
War coming as the loyal servant of
the republic, he waged it with vigor, with
skill. When its purposes are served, his
heart speaks out its first love-peace
This is noble. generous, magnaminous.
May God then, we pray, so dispose minds
and hearts in Spain and in America that
no more of our brother men, Spaniards or
Americans be slain; that no more hearts
of mothers and wives be wrung in anguish.
Father Of men, grant US peace"

A Sailor on Board Dewey's Olympia
Describes His Sensations.

shilOr on hoHru DeWeys olympia
Describes His Sensations.
From the Louisville Commercial
John c. Brady, of 125 Nineteenth street
has received a very interesting letter from
his old friend and schoolmate, Edward
Stanton, who Is one of the men on board
the flagship Olympia, In Manila bay, and
who has been acting as secretary to the
commander Of the vessel The letter was
written May 16, and was mailed from the
American consulate at Hong Kong on May
%. There are passages that give one an
insight into the feelings Of the men that
none OF the newspaper kilograms have
covered. For instance, after describing in
detail the departure from Mrs bay, Stan
ton tells about the preparations to enter
Manila bay and to dare the dangers Of
the mines and shore batteries.
His description of how he passed part
of his time the night before the big bat
tie is peculiarly vivid.
about o'clock / took a pillow" wrote
Stanton, land lay down on the soft side
Of a plank to take a nap. All the men
slept at their guns. At $3.50 we were quiet
ly called. No bugle sounded. Everything
was done quietly. ! jAmped up and went
on the bridge l felt nervous for a while
| did not know where we We're, and It
was fearfully dark All one could hear
was the orders given by the officers and
the click Of the breech blocks as they
were closed. We could see the shape Of
a big island ahead of US, and we were
told that il was the fort. II is about 600
feet above the level of the sea. We could
not elevate our guns enough to bear on
it, 50 they fired at Us without receiving
an answer IN return. Our nerves were
highly strung now from waiting In sas-
pense. About u o'clock we were directly
under the guns of the first fort, and when
they started a signal and fired a rocket
every man braced himself. on we went
not knowing what minute a torpedo or
submarine mine would send US all to
eternity"
After telling about the formation Of the
line of battle, Stanton gives some Httle
pen pictures of the progress of the battle
and incidents that occurred during the
action. Thus, concerning himself, he
says: For a while / thought | was a
gone goose. The shells were falling
around us thick as hail. We could see
the big ones pass over our heads. II was
hot. and the smoke and solt peter was
suffocating one shell passed about two
feet over my head, cutting The signal hall
ward I was holding. Jump up there and
get that end, said the officer. While
was up on the back stay / felt funny, I
can tell you"
Stanton said his time was up in forty
nine days. bur he thought he would stick
IT out and see all the fun that was to be
had.

The Temps commenting upon the fore
going dispatch from its Madrid correspond
ent, says: What should decide neutral
cabinets 10 give wise cOunsels to Madrid
IS not only the fact that the latest develop
ments OF the war have entirely changed
the complexion of the situation, which
was already grave enough for SPAIN but
the further fact that there are trustworthy
indications of a beginning of a reaction in
favor of peace in official circles"

DOESN'T BELIEVE In PEACE.

Present European Methods.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Jan. pa large
and enthusiastic meeting was held tonight
in Sanderss Theater for the purpose of or
ganizing the Athletic Association of Har-
ward Graduates. w. A. Bancroft, 70. pre-
sided, and addresses were made by Mr..
Bancroft and Theodore Roosevelt, assistant
secretary of the navy. The latter declared
that he was a thorough believer in ath-
letics as an important influence in the de-
velopment of character. Though he might
be considered a hereto, he confessed, also,
a preference for those sports which were
called rough. 1t did a man good, he said,
to buck up against an opponent and get
through him-like a gentleman always, but
working for every ounce that was in him.
Il don't believe he continued, lin the doc
trine of peace. We have seen the concert
of Europe keep the peace for the past two
years, at the expense of more bloodshed
ard misery than has been caused by all the
wars of the last half century. Lately we
have seen peaceful acquisition of territory
in China made in circumstances of pro-
found peace" Naughter.)
Mr.. Roosevelt alluded to the noble answer
made by Harvard men of other generations
to the stern call of duty on the battlefield.
In the future, as in the past, Harvard
should turn out men fitted for service such
as Memorial Hall commemorated. The
softer virtues We're essential to civilization,
but in the last resort the man that had 1t i'm
him to give himself heart and soul to the
cause in which he was engaged had the
qualities that would make him the most
useful citizen.

HAVANA. Jan. 26.-The German cruiser
Charlotte School ship has just arrived, and
a British war ship has reached here from
Key West.
This afternoon United States Consul Cen
eral Lee visited the Name returning the
official visit paid him yesterday by Captain
Sigsbee. He was accorded the usual salute.
The local papers insist that the Maine is
here on friendly visit and with the view
of ofTsetting lingo speeches in Washing

The government has reinforced the po-
lice at the American consulate, along the
wharves and on the principal streets, as a
precaution against any attempts to provoke
a collision when the marines and crew of
the United States war ship Maine come
ashore.
La Lucia. replying to an article published
in FL Diario de la Marina from q New York
American correspondents from Havana, ex-
postulates with Ell Diario de Ia Marina,
saying that any such action would have a
most serious counter-effect and warning Ell

language.
General Blanco, who reached Jucaro yes
terday, left there to-day for ManZanilla,
and reviewing the forces.
The city. is entirely quiet tonight. The
Maine lies at anchor near the Spanish cruis-

FALL RIVER, Mass, Jan. 26.-AlthouRh
the striking frame spinners at the Ion
Works mills have no union and are not in
the regular labor unions of the city, they
are making a fight which bids fair to be
stubborn one. They succeeded in getting
some of the operatives out of the No.
mill, thus making the strike include and
affect three of the four mills operated by
this company. The strikers at the Saga
more mill say that their places have been
partially filed by help from the otner mills,
but they refused to go to work to-day. They
claimed that their pay was reduced about
13 per cent, and, besides this, the speed of
the machinery was increased. They in
formed the mill authorities to-day that if
the fast pulleys are removed they will ac-
cept the reduction. The loom fixers have de-
cided to support their brethren in New Bed
ford by assessing each member IS cents u
week.
This afternoon the cardroom operatives
of the King Philip mill met and devised q
plan whereby those locked cut may report
and be paid. Tonight the carders of the
Granite mill reported an excessive reduction
in their wages, in some cases as high as p
per cent. Secretary Lansey was instructed
to interview Agent Shove and ask that the
schedule be revised. The union will not ac-
cept the reduction as it now stands and will
order strike if the wages are not revised.

INDIA MAY HAVE GOLD
BRITAIN'S MONEY STANDARD MAY BE
EXTENDED TO HER COLONY.
Important Announcement by Lord
ing More Ships for Far East Waters.

LONDON, Jan. 26-Lord George Hamil
ton, secretary of state for India, speaking
tonight at Chiswick, said he thought that
during the course of the next twelve
months the government might take steps to
establish a gold standard for India.
Lord George Hamilton read a dispatch
from the Indian government stating that
the revenue was coming in well, that the
expenditures on the frontier war were much
less than had been anticipated and that the
government expected to be able to meet
without difficulty all disbursements for the
present financial year, with the prospect
of a substantial surplus for next years pro-
ceedings. Discussing midas immense pro-
ductive capacity which he referred to las
not yet fully developed, but capable of be-
capital" Lord George Hamilton said "A
stable exchange attracting that capital,
could be secured either by international
bmetallic arrangement or by India estab-
fishing a gold standard. The result of the
Wolcott mission showed that the former
is impracticable, but the difficulties in the
way of the gold standard are not so in
superable as some believe" His lOrdship
said he believed the home government could
materially assist India in this matter, and
he would venture the opinion that it would
do India infinitely more good than any
temporary loan of million or two to meet
the expense of the frontier war"
