INTENSELY DRAMATIC SCENE.
The accommodated Priest, Father
Crowley, Defes the Author
fty of the bishop.

Chicago. Nov. 3.-There was an In
tenseiy dramatic scene in Holy Name
Cathedral to-day, when, in the pres
ence of fully one thousand parishion-
ers. eJremiah j. Crowley, the excom.
was publicly Inundated by order Oh
| the authorities of the church.
Father Crowley had entered the
church unobserved, passing up the
center aisle, and had taken a seat al
most under the pulpit. Solemn high
mass vas being celebrated at the time.
When the presence of Father Crowley
became known, Rev. Francis j. Bar
~. chancellor of the archdiocese OF
Chicago, was hurriedly sent for. Upon
entering the cathedral he went
straight to the seat where the excom-
munieated clergyman was kneeling
and ordered hia to leave the church.
Father Crowley refused to &c, say
ing:
Put me out if you dare"
The strain was intense, and one
woman tainted. There was no resort
to force, however. Chancellor Barry
signalled to a man in the choir loft,
and the sound of the organ ceased
and the singing of the choir was
hushed.
The priests in the altar stopped
the solemn service at the end of the
"Gloria" and walked to the benches
and laid aside their golden vest
ments. The altar boys marched out
of the sanctuary through a side door,
and the priests, clad in their cassocks,
followed. The next moment the hun
dreds of incandescent lights in the
vaulted arches were extinguished and
the candle lights on the altar were
put out.
The strain was broken when Chan
cellor Barry appeared in the pulpit
and said:
Owing to the presence in this sa-
cred edifice of an accommodated
priest the solemn high mass has been
suspended. We will proceed with a
low mass"
No M was delivered, however,
and the mass was at an end before
the congregation was calm again. The
parishioners fingered around the ca
thedral and watched the deposed
priest as he hurried away. None
spoke TO him.
In a statement issued last night Fa>
Their Crowley insisted that it had
been his desire to avoid involving any
of his brother priests in contesting
the order depriving him of the priv
ilege of worshipping in Catholic
churches, and that, accordingly, he
had attended the church of Arch
bishop Feehan's own parish, which is
the cathedral. He announced that he
should continue to attend the serv-
ices of the Roman Catholic church.

THE PLAGUE AT LIVERPOOL.
The Government is Not Particularly
Alarmed, But viii Exercise
All Due Caution.


Washington, Nov. 3.-With the in
formation so far in the possession of
the marine hospital service authori-
ties as to the outbreak of plague in
Liverpool and Glasgow, this govern

infected ports. The utmost care,
however, is being exercised by Off

entering Atlantic ports of the United

Liverpool and Glasgow. All such ar
rivals will be subjected to the most
rigid examination. The members of
crews of the vessels who are
likely to have been nearer the
scene of the outbreak than the ordi-
nary passengers, will be examined
with greatest care.

ton OF Its Case.

testimony, which had been given pre-
yiously, and the introduction by

Iy to the clearing. up of ambiguous

ing the controversy as to what in
formation was communicated to Nd

York, and both newspaper corre-
spondents, who were on duty in Cuba
and in 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 testified concerning the meet
ing of those vessels with the st. Paul.
of which Capt. Sigsbee was in com
mand. The court, however, decided
not to hear them.

ment in the case was made in behalf

|PlUNCEFOIE Is READY.
Lord pauncefote, the British Am
bassador, Calls Officially
Upon Secretary Hay.
READY TO GO TO WORK ON NEW TREATY.
Tbe Condition of the Convention In
af Present Merely I'm the Form OF
which VIII be Trans
ferred Into the Form OF q Formal
Treaty without Delay.

Washington, Nov. Lord Paunce-
fote. the British ambassador, called
upon Secretary Hay to announce
formally to the secretary his return
from a vacation in England and his
readiness to undertake at once the
conclusion of the new Hay-Paunce-
tote treaty. The interview lasted
about half an hour. Many topics
were touched upon beside the treaty,
which was not given particular con-
sideration, the conversation on that
point being rather preliminary to the
beginning of the treaty drafting.
Lord Pauncefote did not bring with
him to the state department a copy
of the proposed convention. In fact,
this document does not exist as such,
for, although the principal points OF
the treaty have been agreed upon be-
tween the two principals. they have
yet to be transferred from protocols
into a formal treaty. This york of
t~ransference will begin in about a
week, according to the present ex-
pectation, and if it proceeds steadily
after that time, the new treaty will
be in shape for submission to the SEN
ate Immediately after that body con-
venes next month.
Lord Pauncefote did not bring to
Secretary Hay any late news respect
ing the views of the British govern
ment as to the treaty. The secre-
tary had been advised so fully by Am
bassador Choate at their conferences
at New Haven of the details of what
had been done in London, and the Ca
BILE reports had been SO complete that
there was nothing new to be COM
municated on the subject.

A Proclamation:
The season is nigh when, ac-
cording to tie time-hallowed us
tom of our people, the president
appoints a day as the especial &C.
casion for praise and thanksgiving
to God.
This thanksgiving finds the
people still bowed with sorrow for
the death of a great and good
president. We mourn President
Mckinley, we so loved and hon.
ored him; and the manner of his
death should awaken in the
breasts of III people a keen
anxiety for the country, and at
the same time a resolute purpose
not to be driven by any calamity
from the path of strong, orderly,
popular liberty which, as a nation,
we have thus far safely trod.
Yet, in spite of this great dis
aster, it is nevertheless true that
NJ people on earth have such
abundant cause for Thanksgiving
as we have. The past year in
particular has been n of peace
and plenty. We have prospered in
things material, and have been
able to work for our own uplift-
ing in things intellectual and
spiritual. Let us remember that,
as much has been given us, much
will be expected from US; and
that true homage comes from the
heart as well as from the lips and
shows itself in deeds. We can
best prove our thankfulness to
the Almighty by the way in
which, on this earth and at this
time, each of us does his duty to
his fellow men.
Now, therefore, I, Theodore
Roosevelt, president of the United
States, do hereby designate as a
day of general thanksgiving,
Thursday, the 2Sth of this present
November, and do recommend
that throughout the land the peo-
pie cas- from their wonted occu-
pations, and that at their several
homes and places of worship rev.
ercntly thank the Giver of all
good for the countless blessings
of our national life.
In witness whereof / have
hereunto set my hand and caused
the seal of the United States to be
affixed.
Done at the City of Washington
this second day of November in
the year of our Lord One thou
the independence of the United
States the one hundred and TWEEN
