PORTSMOUTH. Va, August 25.-This
morning at 9 o'clock the last relic of
Spain's broken naval power in the western
hemisphere, the SCARED and battered
cruiser Reina Mercedes, left this navy
yard in tow bound for the navy yard at

short of rebuilding would make the Refna
Mercedes habitable.

PROTEST OF CATHOLIC ITALIANS.
COMPLAINT Against Vicar General
BOuchet of LOufsville.

bOucnet Oh LOu1AVhles
A protest has been sent to the papal lega-
ton here by the leading Italians Of Louis
ville KY, against the recent action Of
Very Rev. DR.. Bouchet, vicar general OF
that diocese, in refusing to conduct a SOL
emn mortuary service in honor of King
Humberts memory. 1t appears that Father
Bouchet had consented to offer a simple
low mass for this purpose, but declined to
hold any more elaborate service.
1t is not generally known that the pres
ent bishop of Louisville, DIR. William Nc
Closky, was formerly connected with the
American College III Rome. and. therefore.
has decided views on the differences ex-
listing between the Vatican and the Quiri-
nal since 1870. Whether his feelings have
prompted him to support Father Bouchets
attitude against paying extreme honors to
King Humbert's memory is not known, but
the fact that he sustains his vicar gen.
erals contention leads many Italians to in
fer so. Archbishop Martinelli enjoys the
right in this country Of disciplining any
priest or prelate for breach Of duty, but
since the present action of Very Rev. DIR.
Bouchet is no infraction Of the moral law
1t is evident that neither himself nor his
local superior. Bishop McClosky, will m
cur any severe penalty.

NEW YORK August 25.-Gen- P. Alex
ander. who was appointed by President
Cleveland arbitrator in the boundary DIS
nute between Nicaragua and Costa Rica,
has lust returned from those countries on
the completion of his mission.
An interesting feature Of Gen. Alexanders
work lay in the fact that his labors on the
boundary questions were the cause OF
close survey of the line of the proposed
Nicaragua canal. He said that he did not
think the commission now preparing re-
port would advise a new route.
While disclaiming definite knowledge on
the subject he was inclined to think that
a proposition from the Nicaraguan govern
ment to ours had already been made. He
believed that rather than not have the canal
built the Nicaraguan government would ac-
cede to almost any terms made by the
United States.
