The decorators were at work on the au-

When the fusionists and the middle

February, Senator Allen is said to have
used the above language, and the middle

Yes, and you have thrown the party

There are also Inscriptions referring to
Senator Butler, chairman of their ma

JOHN W. GATES ON TRIAL
PROSECUTOR MAKES UGLY ALLIE
CATIONS AGAINST MAGNATE.

NEW YORK, May 5.-A hearing of the
case of August Lamb, against John H.
Gates and a committee of the American
steel and Wire company, on a charge
that Mr.. Gates had violated the penal
code in making false allegations regard
ing his company, was begun today before
Magistrate Zeller. The hearing is to
compel Mr.. Gates to show cause why
a warrant should not issue for his ar
rest
Mr.. Lamb acted as his own counsel,
and Delaney Nicoll appeared for Mr..
Gates. Mr.. Lamb asked that the case
be set for the 18th inst, and then sub
mitted complaint against Mr.. Gates, to
which he made affidavit
Mr.. Nicol moved to dismiss the COM
plant on the ground that there had been
no offense within the provisions Of the
penal code. He claimed that the news
paper article complained of was general
statement of tn condition of the steel and
wire trade and not of the American Steel
and Wire company.
Mr.. Lamb said that he proposed to
show that the newspaper reporter who
wrote the article was sent for for the
purpose of Mr.. Gates own gain. He
argued that even If the statement did
not relate specifically to the business Of
the company, the statement was injurious
to the company, as Mr. Gates had stated
that the company controlled nearly So
per cent of the business. He alleged
that the statement in whole was abso-
lutely false.
After Mr.. Nicoll had replied, Magistrate
Zeller said that he would let the matter
stand over until next Monday at p. m.
He made this date as he said he under
stood Mr.. Gates was soon to depart for
Europe. He told Mr. Lamb that he
might obtain in the meantime the sub
poenas of those whom he wanted to ap-
pear at the hearing.

IMPORTANT APPOINTMENTS.
Formal Notice of Action Taken by
Pope Leo XIII.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-Formal notice
of one of the most important appoint
ments ever made by Pope Leo. XIII.
was received at the papal legation here
today. when the official brief preconiz-
ing Very Rev. Benjamin Kelley, D. D.,
archbishop of Savannah, Ca, arrived.
Archbishop MartinelI, the papal dele
gate at Washington at once forwarded
it to the bishop-elect at Savannah, who
has been administrator of that diocese
since the last incumbent, Bishop Becker,
died, on July 49, 1899
DR.. Kelley, whose Endorsement not only
by the late bishop, but also by the priests
of Georgia, was a factor in securing his
elevation to the hierarchy, is a native
of Petersburg, Va. He was born in 1852
and was educated at Rome, where the
secretary of the papal legation here Dr.
Roker, was intimately acquainted with
him while serving as vice rector of the
American college. The conservation of
Archbishop Kelley will probably occur at
Baltimore at an early date
Archbishop Martinelli, the papal dele
gate and his secretary leave early next
week for Portland, where the former
will confer the pallium upon Archbishop
ChristY.
