Stories Of Violence. :;

Scranton, Pa. Dec. 20.-Non- union nen,
some Of their relatives and others, to the
number of thirty, appeared before, the an
thracite coal strike commission yester-
day and told stories Of alleged boycotts,
intimidations, dynamiting and violence in
various forms during the late strike.
Each witness called was a sufferer in
one form or another at the hands, they
alleged, Of union men. Four witnesses
said attempts were made to blow up their
houses; one house was badly damaged,
many of the witnesses were threatened
with bodily harm, several were beaten,
one was shot in the leg; every one stoned,
boycotted or hung in effgy. .
Joseph H. Dugan, the man who was re-
quested to give up his membership in the
temperance society, remained at work do
ing repair work and acting as watch
man. He wept while on the witness stand
as he told Of how they ordered him to
leave after many years Of pleasant social
relations with its members.
Max Lasar, who did not quit when the
strike began, told of how q man threw a
quart bottle, of giant powder, to which a
lighted fuse was attached. into the parlor
Of his home. He extfnguished the fuse.
The powder was shown to the commits

ing, Washington.
Washington, Dec. 20.-It is doubtful
If Secretary Hitchcock will be able to
set aside the sales Of timber land In the
four townships in White Earth reserva-
tion made in 1900, final action on which
was held up because Of charges OF col
lusion between bidders to keep down the
tary accepted payment for these lands and
covered the money into the treasury. q.
Afterward he held hearing at which
the purchasers or their representatives
were present at which he stated that un-
less they could prove no collusion he
would hold up the patents. This situa
ton has continued for nearly four years,
neither side making move except some
purchasers of small tracts who proved
that they were not in any combination
and had bought the land in good faith.
Sales to them will be approved. Recently
the secretary called on the big lumber
men to show cause why, the sales should
not be set aside.
but already one firm has answered. deny
ing collusion with any other firms. One
official Of the interior department to-day
admitted that it was a hard matter TO
prove collusion, as the burden of proof
of that charge is upon the department..
He expected that the secretary would be
obliged to issue patents to the lumbermen
because of this inability to substantiate
his assertions.

dioceses in the country. To Archbishop
Quigley will fall the work of directing
more thar 1000, 900 members of the Cath
olic church.
He is a man of magnetic personality,
has great executive ability and Is popular
with both clergy and laity.' - y
He Is interested in the labor movement
and was one of the men who played a
prominent part in settling the great grain
strike Of the dock hands in Buffalo,.
Bishop Quigley is native of Canada,
having been born at Oshawa, Oct Is, 1854
but when two years old he was taken
to Lima, N. Y, by his parents, who took
up their residence in that place. His boy
hood was spent in western New York,
and to round out his education he was
sent to st. Joseph's college, an institution
conducted by the Christian Brothers at
Buffalo. s.
On his graduation from college in 1872
he entered the seminary of Our Lady Of
Angels at Suspension Bridge, now known
as Niagara university and took up his
studies for the priesthood. While at the
seminary the brilliant qualities and ear
nest devotion of the young deyotee at
tracted the attention of Bishop Ryan of
Buffalo, who watched his career with in
lterest.; The bishop became much attached
to the Jealous student and prepared the
way for sojourn in Europe that had
an. all-important influence on the after
career Of the brilliant young man.
At Bishop Ryan's suggestion and with
his active assistance the future bishop
left America for a course Of study at Inns
bruck In the Austrian Tyrol. In 1875 the
way was opened for him to 20 to Rome
where he enjoyed the splendid opportuni-
ties offered by the College of the Propa-
ganda. Four years in that great school
gave him fine mental and ceremonial
training. He graduated in 1879 and was
honored with the degree of doctor of df-
vinity. -.
Father Quigley was ordained to the
priesthood and Immediately entered upon
his work In America. His first charge was
as pastor Of st. Vincent's church at At
tica, n Y, about thirty miles southwest
of Buffalo. He remained there until 1884,
when he was appointed to the vacant rec
torate of st. Johns Cathedral at Buffalo
and became pastor of the parish He rose
rapidly In favor, being made member of
the bishops council In 1885, and a, year
later master Of ceremonies Of the synod Of
the diocese. -
In 1896 Father Quigley was appointed tn
the life rectorate of st. Bridget's church,
one OF the largest parishes in Buffalo. In
cluded in its area Is, the dock district.
Shortly after the death of Bishop RYAN
the young pastor of st. Bridget's was se
lected for the position: of bishop, and he
was consecrated in January, 1897. =

GUARANTEE BY SELIGMAN

1t VIII Probably Be the Basis for Arb!-
tratIon With Venezuela. -.--
London, Dec. 20.-The basis for arbitra-
ton with Venezuela and a settlement Of
the present dispute will be a guarantee
by J. & w. Seligman Of the English and
German claims to the extent of G5 400, 900.
It is expected that the matter will be ar
ranged within: few days. The Washing
ton government, which has declined to be
in any respect a party to the financial
transactions, has agreed to use it's good
offices in support of Mr.. Seligman in the
execution Of the terms of his agreement
with Venezuela.
Washington Dec. 20.-It is believed here
that the European powers fully understand
the administration position and that they
are still hesitating with the hope of finding
some means to guarantee their debts.
In this connection the old plan of the
Sel1gmans to make a new loan to Vene-
zuela for the purpose of enabling that
government to pay off the claims has been
revived. The European powers would be
very willing to have their claims paid in
this way and the Seligmans are ready to
undertake to float the loan for Venezuela
II they can secure some guarantee from
tho United States government. The ad-
vantage Of the scheme has again been pre-
sented to the president and Secretary Hay,
but they have refused to place the govern
ment in a position where it might be re-
garded as the financial backer of any
South or Central American government.
The United States government will merely
use Its good offices with Venezuela in SUD-
port Of the Seligmans.

Washington, Dec 20.-The acceptance
of the bid Of the Boston Steamship com
pany for the carrying Of governments sup
plies and troops from Seattle to Asiatic
ports Is not as much; Of a boom for Seat
tie as might be imagined. At the request
Of Secretary Root President Windsor Of
the Boston company struck out OF his
bid the clause providing that the govern
ment should forward three quarters Of its
Pacific business via Puget Sound and
that leaves it within the discretion! ssof
the war department to send as much or
as little business via. Seattle as circum-
stances may warrant. :4s sa q K.
Mr.. Root stated expressly that he would
not guarantee to send any certain amount
of shipments Via Seattle. At the same
time he said that the transports, would
for the present, remain In services. Bids
will be asked for carrying all business
from San Francisco, to Asia and the con-
tract let to fone firm after the plan
adopted with the Boston company at
Seattle. This acceptance Of the bid yes
terday may not result in much Increase
Of the business from Seattle. but It will
concentrate that business in the hands
OF the Boston Steamship company instead
of distinguishing it between general
firms as. heretofore.

Factions In Chicago Wanted Either Rish.
q op$spaldlne or Bishop MuIdoon. :
Chicago, Dec. 2o.-The selection Of
Bishop Quigley to fill the high office of
Archbishop of Chicago is looked upon in
leading Catholic circles of the city as a
compromise appointment. =.
The rivalry between Bishops Spaldins:
and Muldoon for the place was SO strong
that each had a number Of supporters in
the College Of the Propaganda. While
Bishop Muldoon ws considered we'll fitted
for the place by virtue Of his long ex
perience as chancellor and auxiliary
bishop Of the Chicago archdiocese it was
nevertheless feared in Rome. that his Sc
lection might serve to increase the local
differences. Bishop Muldoon's opponents
were the supporters Of Bishop Spaldine.
His friends we're in favor Of Bishop Ouf9-
ley as second choice in the event that
Bishop Muldoon himself could not procure.
the coveted post. 80
The opposition to the elevation of Bish-
op Spalding at Rome was due mainly, it is
thought. to the fact that he opposed the
establishment of papar legation in the
United States when Cardinal Satolli was
sent here by Pope Lea VIII. AS church
man and a scholar Bishop Spaldins
stands in the foremost ranks in the Unit
ed States. 3

TO BOOST RECIPROCITY
Delegates to Recent Convention at
Detroit Hold Meeting at
the West Hotel.

Minnesota delegates to the Detroit reci-
rrocity conference, at which Minnesota s
snterests. in closer trade relations with
Canada were SO thoroughly exploited met
.ate this afternoon at the West Hotel
Duluth had three representatives pres
ent-Ward An1es, Former Governor John
Miller and G. f. Barnum. 1t was ex-
pected before the meeting that the first
active move looking to the promotion of
reciprocity relations would be taken at
the conference, and the most enthusiastic
delegates were hopeful of effecting a state
organization before adjournment. 1t was
pointed out that as Minnesota's inter-
ests would probably be those most vitality
affected by reciprocity with Canada this
state should naturally take the initiative.
Other border states, it was felt, would
then follow her example fast enough.
