CARDINAL GIBBONS SERMON.
The Catholic PreIate Preache. mt st.
Pntrick's Church.

t Solemn mass coram episcopo was cele-
! brated at st. Patrick's Catholic Church
yesterday morning at IL O'Clock by His
Eminence. Cardinal Gibbons. With him
in the altar were Father Dolan, the ceIe-
brant; Dr. Montavan and Father Malio-
ney. deacon and sub-deacon; DR.. Stafford
| and Father Burns, C. S. c., deaeons of
| honor. The church was crowded. The
! Cardinal preached on the fundamental
| principles of Christianity in their rela-
lions to the development progress. and
civilization of twenty centuries. He ar
gued that everything good found all its
essentials, that the principal constitu o,
of modern progress had all their source
in the gospel of Christ. He dwelt espe-
cially on equality liberty. and fraternity,
and emphasized the union of these three
attributes in devotion TO ones country
Since all the duties which we owed,
whether to country. church, or society,
were divine in their essence being in
reality duties paid to God therefore he
concluded. all duty was divine, and every
obligation of man sacred.
In the evening confirmation was con-
ferred on class of about 200 children
and about 100 adult converts. The Car
dinal officiated at solemn benediction. be-
morning. His address was directed maia-
ly toward the children who were con-
tirmed. A very great blessing had been
conferred on them. Not only the spirit
of the Lord. but the Almighty Father
himself had entered their hearts Human
knowledge could not comprehend the
means by which the Almighty, greater
than the whole world. could rest in our
little hearts; but we had the word of the
10 hoe no nd
dwell in us. AS they had been so won
derfully blessed, the children of the class
must strive to deserve and live up to
their blessing. How could that be done?
Only through prayer. He was often asAed
what prayer was. 1t was only CONVERSE
tion with God Although the children
lived within a few blocks of the White
House. the Cardinal knew few of them
had ever talked with President Mckinney.
He might be busy, he might be away, he
might be indsposed-the Cardinal had
learned he was indisposed now. and trust
ed he might be granted speedy recovery.
But the Almighty, who was greater than
all earthly rulers. might be reached by
the simple act of prayer. To pray was
as necessary to keep alive the blessing
their hearts had received as fuel was
necessary to a fire. The girls might not
be in great danger of losing their faith,
but the boys, in associating with other
boys possessed of smattering of educa-
tion which made them atheists or infidels
poor. misguided. and unfortunate minds
would need the sustaining force of pray
er to keep them from ridicule. To illus
trate this the Cardinal cited the story of
little Arthur in Tom Brown" That boy,
he said, was drawer than another, who
should plunge into the Potomac to save
eomrade. Might God grant all their
hearts should be true TO their principles
al their lives long
The Cardinal was apparently in good
health. and spoke with unusual vigor and
emphasis.

CHAPLAIN MILLER's ADDRESS.
The Army Needed to Give the Fill
pinOs Truth.

Chaplain o. c. Miller. who was attached
to the command of General Lawton in the
Philippine Islands when that noted leader
Sunday meeting for men held yesterday
afternoon in the Y. NJ C. A. gymnasium
Chaplain Miller, before his connection
with the army, was for many years mis-
sionary in the Far East. and has during
his service in the Philippines gained a
vast amount of knowledge concerning the
native Filipinos. and has a keen insight
into their character
In opening. Chaplain Miller predicted
that the century nov opening up would
be one of great conflict He said that all
indications pointed to great eras of
transition, disturbance, and commotion
One of the greatest changes, in his opin-
ion, would be caused by conflict that was
sure to result between Christianity and
pagan heathenism Ee pointed out that il
was the divine duty az individual Chris
tians to spread the truth among their
fellow-men. and that the Government of
this country should do the same
The Spanish Amercan war was one of
the greatest benefits this country ever re-
ceiyed.' said Chaplain Miller. 1T caused
the Government to wake up and realize
the duty that lay before them. We we're
disgraced by our indifference to the Ar
menian outrages. and We watched Cuba
suffer and follow the road of destruction
Cor years until tle Lord sent his COM
mand in the death of those 266 brave
sailors who now lie buried over there at
Arlington.
Now the Government has a great OPP
portunity before it in the Philippines.
Those Fiiipnos must he given the truth.
In order to do it the army is a necessity.
The stories of rapi me and pillaging by our
troops in the is 4nds are grossly eXag-
gerated. The sol ) are 4 well-conduct-
ed body of men, .n.d the strict discipline
keeps them from jurine the persons or
property Of the natives. l wish that
Washington could show as high a standard
OF morality and temperance as Manila.
The work of the Goyernm~t in the
islands would be greatly facilitated II the
Fillpinos realized that the United States
is trying to give them independence. The
three centuries and half of oppression
OF the most tyrannica, nature which they
underwent at the hands OF Spain has made
them very suspicious. and experience has
taught them that the promises of foreign
ers are not TO be trusted
Il do not think that the natives are yet
capable OF self-government. IL the army
was removed now there would be imIne
diately a great slaughter of every person
in the islands who professed Christianity.
The streets of the towns and villages
would run with blood.
There is no organization that has such
an opportunity for good work in the Phil
ippines as the Y. NJ C. A. One thing
that has worked against Christianity to a
great extent is the denominationalism that
has crept into the work of the mission
aries. What should be taught the natives
is not the intricacies of UNCONVENTIONAL
faith. but rather the general principles of
Christianity"

GEAR, LANSING & CO.'S AFFAIRS
IN BETTER SHAPE.
Creditors VIII Accept Bonds in Lieu
of Cash on Debts--Assets 100000
More Than Liabilities.

Gear Lansing g. Company will pull
OUT of their financial difficulty without
any further great pilikia. The board
appointed to inquire into the affairs of
the concern have reported the property
of the firm to be worth 1851, ,357S0, and
the liabilities to be S261, ,502.09, leaving
a clear balance of about 100000, even
if the property is sold at a low market
value. The concern is therefore shown
not to be insolvent, but, on the other
hand, to be well able to meet it's obli-
cations if real estate could be realized
upon.
In view of this fact the board has
recommended to the firm a system of
bonding that has met with approval
and will doubtless be effected in the
next few days. 1t is proposed to issue
to the secured creditors, those now
holding mortgages, first mortgage
bonds. The secured claims amount to
about $160,0O0. The unsecured creditors
will be given second mortgage bonds.
These claims foot up about 100000 The
bonds will be issued to the creditors
and the original mortgages and notes
taken up.
1t is further proposed by the board
to have the bond issue prepared and di-
rected by a board of trustees, to con-
sist of three persons to be chosen later
These trustees will have general
supervision of the finances of the firm
and as fast as money is realized from
the sale of real estate they will see
that the bonds are taken un. 1t is
understood that the bonds will fall due
as soon as there is money on hand With
which to take them up. The firm will
continue business on the same lines as
before. The secured debts will be paid
off first and as fast as money accumu-
lates the unsecured debts, represented
by the second mortgage bonds, will be
liuuidated.
The board or committee which has
recommended this assignment of prop
erty to trustees consists of w. o. Smith,
w. G.. Cooper of the First National
| Bank, George Rodiek of H. Hackfeld
! & Co, w II. Baird of T. Fl. Davies &
| Company and Henry Holmes.
| A. V. Gear, of the firm of Gear,
Lansing G. Company, speaking for his
concern, said: 1--WE have no statement
to make, other than to say that most OF
the story in a morning paper is incor-
rect. We do not care to specify as tC
what those errors were. They were
made without our knowledge, and there
the matter must rest"
Mr. Lansing was displeased with n
published statement that he had been
requested to include his personal pro-
perty in the assets of the firm and had
consented to do So While he would
not talk he did deny that most of the
published statements were correct.
j. C. Baird, one of the board appoint
ed to inquire into the affairs of the
concern, declined to make any state
ment in regard to the affairs of Gear
Lansing & Company on the plea thai
the matter affected only a few people
and did not concern the public.

EsTEE's SPECIAL JURY WILL BE
DISCHARGED.
United States District Attorney Dis
agrees with His Substitute Dunno.
Sea Captains Must await Indictments.

The special Jury term of United States
Judge Estee's court will probably come
to a sudden end owing to District
Attorney Baird's disapproval of the
method adopted by Acting Attorney
Dunno in bringing the cases into court
The men were charged by criminal in
formation, Dunno adopting that method
as means of accommodating sea cap
tains who were suffering serious losses
by reason of being delayed in port. Col.
Baird wants regular indictments by
Federal Grand Jury in each case, and
he will not present the cases to the jury
that has just been called.
Col. Baird's decision will mean an
other long delay before the captains
and officers can be tried, and witnesses
and defendants will have to be held In
Honolulu. A special Grand Jury may
be called at once, If Judge Estee
health permits. The judge has not beer
