THE BILL OF RIGHTS.

A dispatch from Richmond says: In
O day or two the Bill of Rights, as
amended aud adopted by the conyen-
ton in the committee Of the whole, viii !
come up In the convention. II seems
quite certain that 1t will be adopted
without further discussion, except on
the section relating to criminal juries.
A southwestern member, how ever, in
sisls that the bill shall not be disposed
of without a recorded vote on the
amendments permitting the Legislature
to revolutionize the jury system 10 civil
cases. The section relating to freedom
OF the press, which omiis the declsra.
ton guaranteeing freedom of speech,
will possibly not be disturbed. The
omission was agreed upon by
close vote. There seems no disposition
to reopen the subject when the report
comes before the convention for fnsl
disposition. The universal sentiment
among members OF the convention Is
for some practical system OF riddDg the
country OF anarchists. Chairman Green,
OF the Bill of Rights COMMITTEES, Gays
that the Federal Constitution and the
common law gives every man the right
OF freedom of speech, so that the
omission OF the declaration 10 the Bill
Of Rights can make no practical change.

A NUMBER of our Catholic citizens
who read the press dispatch 10 We'd
nesdsy's Gazette from Vienna to the
effect that the Pope bad classed Free
mssons, Jews and anarchists together,
mad said America should be freed from
those elements and that the only hope
for the United States ia 10 become
Catholic, unhesitstiDgly pronounce the
dispatch 8 fabrication. They assert
that the fact that the dispatch YVES
from Vienna, not from Rome, and the
whole thing was simply reported"
shows that il was apocryphal. Jews.
Fee m.sons and Catholics entertain
the best feeling toward each other 10
this country. and representatives OF the
three classes deplors the fact that such
a statement should have been made,
especially at a time when the hearts OF
all had blended around one common
altar by the murder OF the President.
That there will be so official denial of
the dispatch is the conviction of many
prominent Catholics and 10 the mean
time, in the language of holy writ,
"Let brotherly love continue" Some
of the closest and most enduring
friendships exist between Catholics,
Jews and Freemasons, and it ia hoped
no such matter as that referred to
above will cause aOy rupture between
lifelong friends.

bers, who were on strike at the Star

Pittsburg, Pc, with strikers from
Dsmmler aud New Castle, held another
meeting yesterday and formally de-
cide6 to give up their charters in the

lodges out OF the union. These, with
the union men who will drop out OF the

a series of resolutions demanding SER
vice pension for all union veterans
sixty years of age and over; that the
lump sum of 100000. 900 shall be al

to vote for the service pensions; that all
widows of union soldiers married prior

members OF Congress be required, un-
der pain OF defeat at the polls, to de-
msnd the immediate and uncondition-
