Bishop of Havana Expects Americans
VIII show More Justice Than
shown by Spaninrds.

HAVANA, Oct, 16-The bishop Of Havana
said the public had hitherto only heard one
side of the church question and asked the
Associated Press to say that the church
does not hold any property or income to
which II is not entitled In some cases. said
the bishop, where property had been left to
congregations for masses. the church had
said the masses, taking over the property as
payment
The Cubans had devastated church prop
erty wherever they could do so and appeals
had been made to Madrid without avail. 1t
is expected the American authorities will
chow more justice than had been shown by
the Spaniards.
The bishop said that the church had not
refused to prove title to the property now
held. All the church asks is that its prop
erty he respected the same as the property
of any other institution.

MANILA, Oct. 16.-9:10 a. m.-Mail advices

between the Visayans and Tagalos, growing
out Of the Tagalos' holding Araneta leader
of the Visayans, prisoner since the threat
ened Visayan revolt against Tagalo domina-
tion a month ago. The Visayans are in
censed to the point of rebellion. While the
Tagalos nominally control only the military
organization of the so called Filipino re-
public, they have crowded out the visayans
from the civil branch, whereat there is great
discomfort
The Tagalos are reported to be concen-
trating the troops in Panay at Santa Bar
bara, where Delgado, chief of the revolu-
tionary government, commands, with view
to putting themselves in a position to sup

the troops would march to Santa Barbara.
Adverse winds prevented the landing, how
ever. General Paion's forces from Buena
Vista are also reported to be going to Santa
Barbara.

three or four thousand rifles there. General

what Yacht Rncinr Costs.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-The New York
Yacht club, which has the management of
the cup races, is the principal financial suf-
ferer by the failures. The officers say that
each attempt to race costs the club $4,000.
This includes the club steamboat, the half
dozen tugs and the incidental expenses.
1t will be seen that the club has thus far
expended $21 900 in the attempts to pull off
one race. 1t must expend at least $4,000
more, inasmuch as one yacht must win three
times,
The seven fukes have cost probably not
far from $4,000, 900, which has come out Of
the pockets of the people who wanted to see
the yachts meet.

BRYAN PLEADS WITH KENTUCKY
Silver Orator Sets Forth How Neces-
sary the state IL to the Cnuse.

BARDWELL, KY, Oct. 1.-THE Bryan
party left Cairo H., this morning at
o'clock, the weather being all that could be
desired. Among those on the train were
William J. Bryan and wife, National Com
mitteeman Woodson of Kentucky, William
Goebel. democratic candidate for governor;
CAPTAIN Joseph Blackburn, brother of Sena
tor Blackburn; G. G. Coulter, candidate for
auditor, and others well known to Kentucky
democracy, and an array of newspaper cor
respondents. Bardwell was the first stop.
An enthusiastic crowd greeted the train. Mr..
Bryan said, in part:
whether the next president CT the United
States is democrat depends somewhat upon
what you do in Kentucky this year. Four
years ago, or, rather, three years ago. Ken
lucky did not help the democratic party to
any great extent l believe the people voted
better than the country counted. am not
sure but we carried the state, but am sure
we did not get it, Kentucky is a democratic
state and we have a right to expect it to go
democratic in 1900.
''If the state goes republican this fall 1t
may be difficult to carry it next year, You
will encourage the republicans and discour-
age the democrats If you divide the demo-
cratic party. You cannot whip the repub-
licans by dividing the democratic party in
two
Mr.. Bryan vigorously denounced the war
in the Philippines and the present large
standing army, claiming ii the duty OF the
democratic party to seek the reduction of the
army to the peace footing of $4,000 men.
Mr.. Bryan also at some length paid his re-
spects to President McKinley's announce
ment OF the intention to hold the Philippine
| islands and said 1t was the first announce
| ment of a president of the United States
against the spirit of the Declaration of In
dependence In referring to the presidents
declaration that congress would provide for
| the government of the Islands he said: you
should substitute parliament for congress
and revert to the time when the colonies
asked recognition of King George"
! He ridiculed their claim that We had a
| right TO the islands because we had pur-
chased them from a discredited monarchy
and averred that We cannot buy the Philip
pines after We had armed them to fight
Spain.
