FAREWELL TO SCHROEDER.
German Catholic Priests Give the
MOnsignor u Purse of $4,000.

COLUMBUS, o., Feb. 9.-There was & re-
markable gathering at the Josephinum, the
papal institution in this city, to-day Forty
five German Catholic priests from all parts
of the United States met to bid farewell TO
Mgr Joseph Schroeder who leaves to-mor-
row to accept q professorship in the uni
versity at Munster, Westphalia rendered by
Emperor William, and to protest against
the removal of Mgr. Schroeder from the
chair of dogmatic theology in the Catholic
university at Washington, ID. c. The forty
five priests assembled came as the dele
gates from 1900 German Catholic priests,
with a constituency of 1000 communicates
of the church. In the morning there was
a formal programme of exercises at the
Josephinum, which is under the direct
charge of Mr.. Jessing. Rev. A. j. Thele,
of Chicago, presented an address to Mgr.
Schroeder expressing regret on behalf OF
the German Catholics of the country on his
departure and severely censuring the
trustees of the Catholic University
Rev Thiele, on behalf of the 1900 priests
represented, presented Mgr. Schroeder with
a purse OF $4,000 Mgr. Schroeder replied
with much feeling, accepting the gift. In
discussing his removal from the chair of
dogmatic theology in the Catholic univer-
sity he stated the trustees had accused him
of the very thing of which they were
guilty They had charged him with teach
ing doctrines that were un-Catholic, and his
dismissal had shown that they were teach
ing many things which the people of the
church no longer accepted. In the after
noon q farewell banquet was held at the
Southern hotel. Toasts We're responded 10

cation Of French Jurisprudence in Difference
to that wonderful friendship which the
Car pretends for France. Documents are
to be withheld on great grounds of state,
ana the patriotism of any one who advo-
Gates their production is seriously ques-
toned. This may be a perfectly sincere act
on the part of the government, but what
condition of mind can men have worked
themselves up to who can graveiy make
such statement to the public and what
must be the temper of the people who ac-
cept 1t? IT is more plausible to believe, as
they do everywhere but in France, that the
whole affair is q humbug, and that the gov
ernment has nothing but forged documents,
and is afraid to acknowledge the fact.
The plea that Russia has something to do
with the affair is just as silly as the other.
If Russia while pretending to be in alliance
with France, was actually corruptinR
French officers and buying French military
secrets, the first duty of an honorable
statesman would have been not only to
tops, and let the French people know TO
what kind of an ally they are making love.
The Russian story is not more probable
than the others The most plausible story
is that the government, in the first place,
was led into blunder by forged docu-
ment: skillfuily executed. It seized upon
Dreyfus as victim, as the forger intended
it should. 1t goes from blunder to blunder
in its efforts to bolster up dishonest po-
sition, each one bringing 1t nearer the brink
of disaster If lola is convicted, his friends
which are numbered by the thousands, will
be added to those of Dreyfus and they will
leave no stone unturned to overthrow the
government When it goes, moreover, it
will not be the Ministry alone, but the Press
ident also, and the absurd alliance with
Russia Will at the same time receive ita
death blow.

petition to Judge Burlington declared the
whole proceeding concerning his arrest lille

Violation of the Constitution of the United

right to execute the warrant anywhere he
might find the defendant, and that the lat

to Pittsburg. After the argument the court

HAVANA EDITORS WARNED.
Must Not Criticise Autonomy or the
Acts of Spanish Generals.

HAVANA via Key West, Feb. 9.-Gen.
Pando's sudden return on Tuesday was due
to the failure of Captain General Blanco's
trip through the east, where the latter met
with a cold reception at the hands of both
Spaniards and Cubans. He Immediately as
sembled the editors of all the daily papers
except La Lucha and emphatically pro-
hibited direct or Indirect attacks upon au-
tonomy, as we'll as articles of a laudatory
character which were in his opinion sar-
castle. He had special reference to a lead
ing article in La Lucha commencing the
departure of Blanco and Bando for the
field, mot with arms, but with emissaries
for the insurgents camps to offer money
and offices; emissaries who have bribed
only Masso, a general removed by General
Maxine Gomez for bad conduct Cepero,
whose forces General Gomez had withdraw n
from his command. and the brothers Curvo,
who offered To surrender to General Weyler
on terms which he was unwilling to give
them, and whose surrender was only eff
fected after the insurgents had shot and
hanged over twenty Spanish emssaries sent
by General Blanco and General Pando."
Thrice before the editors General Pando
repeated: Il will do away, II necessary, not
only with San Miguel referring to the edi-
tor of La Lucha), but even with the print
ers devil" He is here now to keep the pa
nerS from printing any news relating to the
failures of General Blanco in the field to
coerce the press and to prevent an outburst
of Indignation among the masses of the peo-
pie over his failure to obtain the surrender
of the insurgent leaders, as loudly prom
ised
General Pando's act is regarded as very
foolish, for now that the censorship is in
force, the papers cannot print anything
without being previously censored General
Solano, chief of staff. is highly Disguised
with Pando'S autocratic methods These
strenuous efforts to choke the press prove
the desperate position of the government,

pressed by the censor. The editor filled in
the blank space with advertisements.

TROTTING TURF RULES
New Regulations Adopted by the Ma
tiOnaI Association.


NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-The biennial con-
gress of the National Trotting Associa-
ton met here to-day The representatives
went over the entire turf code, and after
discussing the various changes suggested
by the rules committee approved the great
majority of them. Few of the rules enacted
at the congress held on Feb. z, 1896, and
since then in force, escaped alteration. Not
only will the Rational Trotting Association
be governed by the revised code, but by res
olution the American Trotting Association
was requested to concur in it. The annual
election of officers resulted: p p. john
son, Lexington, KY, president; David Bon
ner, New York and NJ. Z. Smith, San Fran
cisco. vice presidents; Lewis ]. Powers,
Springfield, Mass, treasurer; w. II. Goch-
er, Hartford, Conn, secretary.
Two questions that have excited much
discussion in trottng circles. the abolition
of hobbies and the licensing of drivers,
came in for brief discussion. The section
adopted regarding the use of hobbies now
reads: Horses wearing hobbies shall not
be eligible to start in races on the ground
of members after Jan. l, 1899" The new
rule regarding the licensing of drivers pro
Vides that no driver shall be allowed 70
compete on the grounds of member until
he shall have obtained a license from the
secretary of the National Trotting Assocla-
ton; that such license must be applied Tor
anyway; that in case of emergency mem
Der may permit a rider or driver to com
pete pending action an application for
license, but in al cases the winnings OF the
horse shall be withheld until the license is
issued and in case of failure to secure IL
Cense the premium retained shall DO dls-
tributed under the rules; that a license may
be revoked under certain conditions; tnat
license may be issued free of charge TO
all riders and drivers against whom there
are no claims on the books of the National
Trotting Association. The same rule pro-
vdes also that drivers must wear their own
distinguishing colors; that no licensed rlder
or driver can without sufficient reason de-
cline to be substituted by judges as required
by Rule q, which has reference to the dls-
qualification of a driver of a horse that is
being pulled or has been handled improper
ly: such refusal may be punished by sus-
pension or the imposition of fine, or both;
that a rider or driver shall not drive a horse
in race without personal knowledge as
to the eligibility of the horse.
A resolution introduced by Charles b. Pai-
mer of Lowell, which set forth that, as II IS
generally believed that betting on heats IS
detrimental to the best interests OF the turf,
the National Trotting Association disap-
proves of the practice and declines TO give
it recognition, was adopted.
New York was selected as the place OF
meeting for the next congress.

BILE Henry if they do not carry the southern
section of the State.
But, really, southern Indiana Democracy
is not in as harmonious condition as it was
during the disastrous campaign OF 1870
There are local factional lights extending
to nearly every locality in the southern
tiers of counties, and they are of that kind
that must necessarily weaken the party.
Some of these factional fights have been in
progress for years, notably in Clark and
Washington counties, and they have had
but one effect-to wipe out the Democratic
majorities. Some of these local WrangleS
are intensified this year, and the calling or
early conventions is having no perceptlble
harmonizing effect on the party;
In the ourth congressional district there
is a disposition to turn down Francis Marion
Griffith, the successor of Judge Holman. A
great many of the Democratic leaders be-
lieve that Griffith is not large enough. in
tellectually, to represent the Holman dis
trict, and there are a great many willing
statesmen who would gladly step into his
shoes. 1t is virtually settled that the new
congressman is to have opposition, and John
Overmyer, Anderson Perciiield and perhaps
a score of others stand ready to receive the
nomination.
In the Second congressional district, where
a Democrs -Populist alliance in 1896 swept
everything before it, there are signs of dis
content among the Populists. who are nu-
mericaliy very strong. The unterrifed Mot
singer who publishes the Referendum at
Defiance and is engaged in keeping the
party in the middle of the road. Many of
the Populists who took the Democratic
ticket straight two years ago are now in
the ranks of Motsingers middle-of -the-road
army, and that they will vote an I'M
scratched Populist ticket this year goes
without saying. Representative Robert w.
Miers, of Bloomington, will be renominated
by the Democrats, and it is probable that
Motsinger will again stand as the Populist
candidate, If he develops the strength
claimed by his adherents the contest will be
close, probably very uncertain, and it. is
just possible that u Republican representa-
tive may come out of the Second district
The Republicans have a great deal of good
material in this district, and at the right
moment a strong candidate will be put
forth
Looking carefully over the four congress
sional districts of southern Indiana; there
is nothing apparent at this time to call forth
much Democratic enthusiasm and with the
exception of the Third district some sur
prises may confront the Democratic party
in the fall elections for which they are not
at present looking.
