Episcopalian Breach.
Oshkosh, Wis.,, Nov. 23.-The seces-
sion of Trinity Episcopal church Of
this city, the largest Episcopal church
in the diocese of Fond du Lac, and
splitting up the diocese, seems immi-
lent and inevitable. Trinity is low
church," and Bishop Grafton, at the
head Of the diocese, is extremely high
church," Through his personal influ-
ence practically all the churches in the
diocese, outside of Trinity, have
adopted the ritual and vestments.
Trinity has steadfastly refused, and
the result has been a breach ever
widening between the bishop and the
church. Matters were brought to a
climax by the extreme ritualism of
C%oadjutor Bishop Weller at Fond du
Lac last week The ceremonies were
so nearly like those of the Roman
Catholic church that few could tell the
difference.

TROUBLE WITH TURKEY.

Porte May BE Compelled to Give
Consul Norton an ExeQuatur.
Constantindple, Nov. 25.-The porte
has definitely rejected the request for
an %exequatur for a United States on
sui at Harpoort. This refusal is re-
garded by the United States legation
as a direct violation of treaty rights,
and consequently, despite the refusal,
DR.. Thomas H. Norton, who was APP
pointed by President Mckinley some
time ago to establish a consulate at
Harpoot, has been directed to proceed
to his post. The expected visit of the
battleship Kentucky at Smyrna is be-
lieved to relate quite as much to this
matter. as to the indemnity question.

Bradford, Pa, Nov. 24.-John Keat-t
ing fatally shot his wife yesterday. At
ter the shooting of the woman Heating
seemed to suddenly realize what he
was doing. MY God! My God!" he
shrieked, what have I done?" Then
he shot himself and fell forward,
against the body of his wife. Both
were soon dead. In a small room near
where the shooting occurred a little
n~ine-year-old son of the dead woman
by a former husband, lay sick Of scar
let fever. The sounds of the shooting
and the frightful death of his mother
and stcp-father produced a shock to
the little patient which nay also end
his life. The cause of the tragedy Is
ascribed to whisky and insane jealousy
without cause.

Marseilles, Nov. "a. - Paul Kruger.
former president of the South African
republic, landed here at 1o:45 a. M.
The streets and boulevardes from
the landing stage to the hotel present
ed a perfect sea Of human beings.
From the moment the white, twelve
cared barge left the side Of the Gelder-
land with Mr.. Kruger, who appeared
to be in good health, sitting in her
stern. surrounded by the Boer repre-
sentatives, including DR.. Leyds and
Messrs. Fischer and Vessels, a storm
of cheers broke and never ceased until
MI. Kruger entered the hotel. Even
then a vast concourse Of people re-
manned in front of the building until
Mr.. Kruger appeared on the balcony,
where he had to remain for some time,
uncovered, acknowledging the ACCLAIM
ations. Replying to this storm, from
the solid block of thousands of en-
thusiastic people, Mr.. Kruger said the
warm reception given him would do
much to soothe the wounds in his
heart. THE Boers," he added, will
Never Sacrifice Their Freedom.
They will rather be exterminated to
the last man" Replying to the ad-
dresses of welcome of the presidents Of
Paris and Marseilles committees, Mr..
Kruger spoke in Dutch in a low voice,
accompanying his words with ener-
getic movements of his hat, which he
held in his right hand. After thank
ing the committee for the warmth Of
the reception and expressing gratitude
for the sympathy he had received from
the French, government, he spoke of
the war as terrible, and b~arbarously
conducted by the British. He said: .
II have fought with savages, but
the present war is even worse. We
will never surrender. We are deter
mined to fight to the last extremity.
and If the republics OF the Transvaal
and Orange Free State lose their inde-
pendence it will be because they have
lost every man, m and child,
This declaration dispelled at once
any impression that he intends to ac-
cept a compromise from the British
government. His announcement was
greeted with a O a of cheers n cries
of 'Vive Kruger "Vive les Beers"
"Vive la Liberte."
Paris cts Ready.
Paris, Nov. 24.-Extensive prepara-
lions are being made here for the re-
ception of former President Kruger,
who landed 1t Marseilles yesterday,
and Is expected to reach Paris to-
morrow morning. Extraordinary police
precautions have been taken about the
Hotel Scribe, in the vicinity of which
are many English stores which, 1t is
feared, the crowd in it's enthusiasm,
might injure. The whole of the sec
ond floor of the Hotel Scribe has been
retained for the use Of Mr.. Kruger and
his suite. It has been decided that the
municipal council will offer the former
Boer president a reception. The COM
mittee Of Boer independence has post
ed a placard in Paris calling upon
Pariaians to give MI. Kruger tie
Warmest possible welcome.

Washington, Nov. 25.-Realizing the
critical condition of the negotiations
at Pekin, the United States govern
ment has appealed directly to the
powers to make arrangements which
will prevent further trouble in Crina.
The government is satisfied that un-
less the powers modify the conditions
which the ministers at Pekin are ap-
parently anxious to impose. the nego-
tiations will come to nothing and there
will be grave danger of q renewal of
hostilfties involving the whole of
China and threatening the peace of
the world. The details of the appeal
have not been disclosed, but they are
understood to be of such a character
that the powers will be obliged to
make known
Without Qualification
their intentions as to China's future.
1t is believed here thai in this action
the government will have the hearty
support of Russia and France, and
perhaps Japan. Some responses are
already at hand, and it is stated that
generally u advances have been we'll
received, and the state department X
presses satisfaction with the progress
sc far achieved. Details of the radical
action Of the government cannot be
obtained. but enough is known to JUS
tify the assertion that the United
States has asked the powers to put
aside their individual desires and en-
deavor to make an agreement to serve
as a basis for direct negotiation with
the Chinese government which will be
for the
Good of All Concerned.
The government was reluctantly forced
to AXE this step. The president and
his advisers felt, however. that the
foreign representatives at Pekin nave
succeeded after many weeks of con-
ference in putting the difficulties be-
tween China and the powers in an
even mere hopeless tangle than before.
To bring order out of this condition of
diplomatic chaos is the earnest desire
Of the government. Whether any
good results come the government has
no means of knowing, but it feels that
it's duty to itself and. its regard for
the peace Of the world justified it in
abandoning the hope or bringing about
a settlement through the ministers at
Pekin and trusting to the sense OF
justice among the European nations
and Japan to remove the menace to
their OWL welfare now confronting
them.
