Come. to Confer with Brooke.

HAVANA, May 15.-General Gomez
has sent message to Governor Gen
eral Brooke that he will call at head
quarters today for further conference
regarding the payment of the Cuban
troops. The appointment for the inter
view is the result of direct inquiry as
to what General Gomez intended to do
in view of the resignation and non-ap-
pearance of all the Cuban officers nom-
mated by him to represent the several
corps in the distribution Of the $3, OOO,-
600. General Brooke is determined to
disregard, for the present, the reports
that reach him from various sources as
to the alleged intention of Gomez to
withdraw his cooperation and thus to
throw into confusion the carefully ma
tured plans for distributing the fund.

DR.. BRIGGS ORDAINED.
Consecrated as Minister in the
Episcopal Church.
BISHOP h. Q. POTTER oFF1o1ATEs.

Clergyman Suspended by Presbyterian
Assembly Changes Aneglance-No Pro-
test Made Against Ordination of Author
of Alleged Heresy Work and Services
Proceed.
NEW YORK, May 15.-In the pro-
cathedral on Stanton. street, yesterday,
Rev. DIR. Charles A. Briggs, who was
suspended for heresy by the Presbyter-
ian assembly, was ordained priest of
the Episcopal church. He was or
dained together with che Rev. Charles
A. Snedeker, and the ordination cere-
monies were conducted by Bishop Pot
ter. The little church was crowded
with people and the ceremonies were
notable for the quietness that prevailed.
Those who expected, from the great
cutlery of the past three or four weeks,
some sensational features, were disap-
pointed. There was no scene, no ex-
element, and no protest was filed at
the beginning, during or at the close of
the ordination. There was nothing no.
table in the sermon preached by Rev.
DIR. George William Douglass.
The ceremonies were very long, COM
mencing at 1920 o'clock and continuing
until late in the afternoon. If any
thing, the services were hurried little
and the general communion which fol-
lowed the communion of the postulants,
or candidates, tended to extend the
time.
Rev. DIR. Briggs was somewhat ner-
vous, though he did not betray it in the
church during the services, There was
semblance of nervousness in all the
celebrants. There seemed to be ten
dency to hurry through the ceremonies.
After the postulants had been presented
to the bishop with the usual assurance
that they had been examined and found
worthy, the bishop arose from his chair
and proclaimed general invitation to
any persons knowing ''any impeachment
or notable crime" in the candidates to
come forward and declare. Then fol-
lowed profound silence. People
turned about as if expecting some one to
rise up and make a protest. No one
arose. There was no protest handed to
the bishop and the crucial moment was
over. Then the regular formula Of ordin-
alton was gone through with more de-
liberation.

MINE INSPECTORS STORY.
Mine Inspector James Blick, who has
been in the mine almost constantly since
last night, came out tonight and gave a
graphic account of its condition Inspec-
tor BlicS said:
AT the bottom of the two shafts the
mine is a complete wreck. Only enough
debris has been removed to allow of the
bodies being brought out. There are more
bodies in the mine, but how many cannot
be determined. There are undoubtedly a
number of corpses under the Wreckage.
The lower part of the mine is flooded,
and the water-is rising, as the pumps are
disabled The pumps will not run. for a
day or two, as the six-inch pipes draining
the mine have been twisted and broken
like reeds. I penetrated to the face of
the mine today and saw two bodies there,
but the after damp was thick and had
to return quickly. Nothing further will
be done to remove the debris Until the
water has been pumped out. None of the
men can possibly be alive. 1t will require
several days to clear the mine. The bot
tom of it is wrecked, but the roof and
sides are intact. There Is 40 fire in the
mine.''
Rough though careful hands carried
out bodies of the victims when they
reached the top of the shaft to the tenn
porary morgue on the hill side. hun

back of the skull remained, and that was

closed the fact that the conviction is
quite general among them that there
shREld be an organization effected
among them which could make its exist
ence effective, If only by threat Of re-
peatlng the Fenian invasion of 1885, as 1t
would deter the British from sending any
more troops to2Africa. Prominence has
doubtless been given to Omaha and Ne
braska In the rumors of this movement,
because of the activity Of the Irishmen
OF Nebraska in Land league affairs within
the last dozen years, and because of the
further fact that the bones of the most
prominent leaders of the invasion of over
thirty years ago rest in an Omaha
cemetery. Beneath a handsome monu-
ment erected over his grave by the Irish
Nationalists in 1895, Gen John O'Nein
sleeps in an honored grave In the Holy
Sepulcher cemetery, just beyond the west
eSn limits of the city. He commanded
the invading Irishmen at the battle at
Ridgeway, near Niagara Falls, June 2,
1856. and the inscription on his monument
proclaims him the hero of that engage
ment.

Rev. Mr.. AxteH Has an Encounter
With an Irate Landlord.

ROYAL OAK, Mich, Dec. 24.-Rev. j. J..
AXtell, the fighting parson, engaged In a
fight last night with his landlord, w. G.
Mohen, and says that he narrowly es-
capped serious injury. Mohen entered the
house and a disturbance arose over the
bill for a sidewalk which Axtell had built
in front of the house. Mohen, so Axten
declares, used violent language in the
presence of Mrs. Axtell and invited the
preacher down the steps to fight
Mr.. Axtell says that he went out on the
porch, when Mohen made a lunge at him
and they clinched.
AxteH wrenched himself loose and
lodged, but Mohen picked up a scantling
with several spikes in it and struck sew
eral blows. One Of them struck him on
the hand. Through his superior sprint
ing ability he got out OF danger.
Mohen is a stalwart street car motor
man, and says that the preacher was ths
aggressor, making a pass at him and
threatening to put him to sleep" He
admits menacing the minister with the
scantling, but says he did so in fun AK
tells hand is fractured, and today he
lodged a complaint with the prosecutor OF
Wayne county, asking for Mohens ar
rest on the charge of using improper Ian
guage. This is the third time since he
fought a ive-round draw with Gus Don
dero that Axtell has been In a similar
row, although they have been kept Sc
cret. He declares that the last fight
grew directly out of the first mill and
the fact that he mas caused the arrest OF
two saloonkeepers on the charge Of vio-
lating the liquor law.
