DRAMATIC SCENE IN CHURCH.
Deposed Priest Publicly Humiliated in
Chicago Cathedral.

Chicago Nov. 4.-There was an in
tensely dramatic scene in Holy Name
cathedral yesterday, when, in the
presence of fully 1000 parishioners,
Jeremiah j. Crowley, the exconmuni-
Gated Roman Catholic priest, was pub
licly humiliated by order of the author
tiles of the church. Father Crowley
had entered the church unobserved
and had taken seat almost under the
pulpit. Solemn high mass was being
celebrated at the time. When the pres
ence of Father Crowley became known
Rev. F. j. Barry, chancellor of the
archdiocese of Chicago, was hurried1y
sent for. Upon entering the cathedral
he went straight to the seat where the
communicated clergyman was kneel-
ing and ordered him to leave the
church. Father Crowley refused to
go, saying: Put me out, If you dare"
The strain was intense, and one
woman in the congregation tainted.
There was no resort to force, however.
Chancellor Barry signalled to man in
the choir loft and the sound of the or
gan ceased and the singing of the choir
was hushed. The priests in the altar
stopped the solemn service.
The strain was broken when Chan
cellor Barry appeared in the pulpit and
said: Owing to the presence in this
edifice of an excommunicated priest
the solemn high mass has been sus-
pended. We will proceed with a low
mass" No sermon was delivered,
however, and the mass was at an end
before the congregation was calm
again. The parishioners fingered
around the cathedral and watched the
deposed priest as he hurried away.
None spoke to him.

HANNA OPENS ARGUMENT.
Assistant to Judge Advocate Begin

Assistant to Judge Advocate Begins
His Talk on Schley.
court of inquiry reached the argument
stage at the beginning of the after
noon session yesterday. The morning
sitting was devoted to listening to Ad-
miral Schley and Captain Sigsbee in
making corrections of their testimony.
which had been given previously, and
the introduction by Judge Advocate
Lemly of numerous documents bear
ing upon different phases of the in
quiry. Admiral Schley did not make
any material additions to his previous
statements, but devoted himself to the
clearing up of ambiguous points in his
evidence. An effort was made to in
troduce two new witnesses, who were
expected to give testimony in Admiral
Schley's behalf concerning the con-
troversy as to what information Cap
tain Slgsbee communicated to Admiral
Schley when he arrived off Santiago
in May, 1898. One of these witnesses
was Frank B. Richards and the other
George Lynch, both of New York, and
both newspaper correspondents who
were on duty in Cuba and Cuban
waters during the war with Spain.
Mr.. Lynch was on the press boat
Somers N. Smith, and Mr.. Richards on
the Premier. They were to have testi-
fled concerning the meeting of those
vessels with the st. Paul, of which
Captain Sigsbee was in command.
The court, however, decided not to
bear them.
The opening speech of the argument
on the case was made in behalf of the
government by e. P. Hanna, assistant
to the judge advocate He began his
argument few minutes after the
court convened at o'clock and when
the court adjourned two hours later he
had not covered more than half of the
ground in the controversy.
Speaking of the run of the flying
squadron from Key West to Cienfue-
gos, Mr. Hanna claimed that the trip
was not made as expeditiously as pos
sible. He discussed the question of
McCalla's signal code for communi-
cation with the Cuban insurgents on
the shore at Cienfuegos at some
length. He contended that Admiral
Schley should himself have taken the
initiative in ascertaining the presence
or absence re insurgents without wait
ing for signals from anyone.

Constantinople, Nov. 2.-The case Of
Miss Stone has again become more.
serious. The brigands, it appears, are.
still holding out for the e25,0O0 ran,
som, and it is feared that should they
persist in their demand Miss Stone,
will have to be sacrificed. Neverthe-
less, the negotiations are still proceed
ing.
Anxiety prevails at the United States,

active exchange of kilograms between
Secretary Spencer Eddy and various
points. Mr.. Eddy had long confer
ence with British Ambassador O'Con-
nor, who is actively assisting in the
efforts to bring about Miss Stones re-
lease.
Sofia, Nov. 2.-The best method of
transmitting the ransom demanded by
the br1gands for the release of Miss
Ellen M. Stone, the abducted Amerf-
can missionary, and of assuring the
safety of the captives are matters
now engaging the attention of Sama-
kov missionaries, who are negotiating
with the kidnapers. 1t is felt that
unusual precautions are necessary in
order to safeguard Miss Stone and the
others, as there undoubtedly is danger
that the captives will be murdered af-
ter the ransom is paid.

ers by British,


Amsterdam, Nov. 2.-The Boer depu-
tation here summoned Leyds and
Bouchen by telegraph yesterday from
Brussels to consider dispatches re-
ceived from the Boer leaders in the
field. saying that the fighting burghers
were determined to make reprisals if
the British continued hanging and
shooting rebels, and others to the eff
feet that the Boer authorities in South
Africa affirm that the adoption of re-
prisals would be bad policy, and that
in order to strengthen their position,
they request Mr.. Kruger to let them
know his opinion, as he still has the
greatest hold on the minds of the
burghers. The meeting lasted four
hours and it was decided to advise Mr..
Kruger to comply with the request of
the Boer authorities and to take the
opportunity to bring the subject of
British executions in South Africa be-
fore the European public in an open
letter. DR.. Leyds has gone to Hilyer-
som to present the matter to Mr..
Kruger.
