Twelve Months.

A Long List OIL Disasters of Various
Kinds The Criminal Statistics

Below will be found review of the
principal events that make up the
record of the year 1898:
Various Disasters.
The loss of life resulting from various
disasters in this country is as follows:
Fires. 1,67O; drownings. 3.11O: explosions.
629; mines, $50; falling buildings, etc.,
$751; cyclones and storms. 500; lightning,
255.
The loss Of life by railroad accidents Of
various kinds was 1880 in 1885, as compared
with 2,764 in 1897. The number of seriously
injured was 2.6l6. as compared with 2,42s
in 1887.
The list Of marine disasters shows 1855
lives were lost upon the coast and rs on
inland waters. total of $3.50. as compared
with 2,42G in 1897. 1912 in 1896. $3.50 in 1895.
and 6.SSl in 1894.
Notwithstanding the war between the
United States and Spain, the loss of life
upon the battlefield throughout the world
In 1898 has been smaller than for several
years past. The total, roughly estimated,
has been but about $1,000, as compared
with 103.451 in 1897, 1290SO In 1896, 157.986 in
1895. and S2.75O in 1894.
Epidemics and Famine.
The loss of life by epidemics and famine
shows a gratifying decrease. Famine in
the province Of Kansu, China, has swept
away 10000 victims. The plague in India
has destroyed over 1000, and In China
about 1000 persons. Exact statistics Of this

press of London and Dublin. He was
said, in fact, to have been more abused
by the English people and press than any
other bishop of Ireland.
The prominence of the Irish NATIONAL
list party and its close Identification with
the Catholic clergy and laity of ireland
drew forth in time special protest from
those anti-Nationalists who were also
Catholics, and the report was persistent
ly spread among the opponents of Bishop
Nulty and his adherents that the Ma
tionalist doctrines were distasteful to
the Vatican, and would be officially con-
demned by Rome.
This was in 1884. At this time the
archbishopric of Dublin, carrying with it
the Catholic primacy of Ireland, was va
cant. There were two prominent clergy
men mentioned for the appointment
Dr. Donnelly, man largely in favor with
anti-Nationalists and Dr. Walsh, the
most outspoken Nationalist among the
Irish bishops
The rivalry and excitement ran high.
The Pope had already selected a COM
promise candidate, Archbishop Moran,
OF Australia, and had, in fact summoned
him from Sydney, it is said, for appoint
ment. But he prevented any possibility
of detection in the Irish branch of the
church by the appointment of Bishop
Walsh, after the Irish bishops had visit
ed Rome to confer with the Catholic hier-
archy there.
Iii the struggle Bishop Nulty took
prominent part. and just before leaving
for Rome issued a strong pastoral letter,
which set forth the claims of the Irish
people, and had powerful influence in
determining the fight. 1t brought large
amount Of vituperation on the writer's
head from his political opponents, and
the English press construed it to mean a
threat that the Irish people would throw
off Catholic authority if their demands
on the land question were condemned by
the Pope.
Bishop Nulty went to Rome with the
other Irish bishops, directly after issuing
tIlls pastoral, ana Ill Il personal audience
with the Pope told him that since he had
described certain evictions at Mount
Nugent, Ireland. the English press had
constantly villif1ed and misrepresented
him. He cmphatically denied that his
pastoral had contained anything disloyal
to his faith or his ecclesiastical chief, and
added warmly:
Il would rather cut off my right hand
than say one word against your Holi-
ness" Leo assured him that he had not
been misled by the English press, ex-
pressed his confidence In the bishop, and
sent through him tho apostolic blessing
to the bishops flock
Bishop Nulty received an address Of
welcome on his return to Ireland, and
1t proved great triumph. He related
In public the story of his audience with
the Pope, and said that he would con-
tinue to write on In the same vein he
had used before. as the Pope had ex-
pressly told him to write on" DR..
Walsh's appointment completed the Na~
tionalist triumph.

one Of the most influential and forceful
opponents of the central idea of that
book His uncompromising position Is
we'll shown in an essay he wrote in 1881,
on the land question. He said in part:
The land, therefore, of every country,
is the common property of the people Of
that country, because its real owner
the Creator who made it-has transferred
1t as voluntary gift to them. Terrain
autem dedit fills hominum. (The earth

Now, as every individual in every coun-
try is Il creature and child of God, anI
sight. the settlement Of the land of this
or any other country that would exclude
the humblest man IN this or that country
from his share of the common inheri-
lance would not only be an injustice
and wrong to that man; but would,
moreover, be an impious resistance to the
benevolent Intentions Of his Creator
The declaration Of such radical senti-
ments drew upon the bishop of Meath d
series of violent attacks from the anti
Nationalist as we'll as the anti Catholic
