ACCUSES DEPEW OF DECEIT.
Priest Leeturing ON Mixed Marriages
Refers to the Senator's.

The Rev. DR.. Joseph Mcmahon, rector OF
the Roman Catholic Church Of Our Lady OF
Lourdes, in an address yesterday afternoon
on the subject of Divorce in Its Practical
Aspect to Catholics" charged Senator
Chauncey NJ. Depew with having deceived
the cure at Nice, where he was married.
DR.. Mcmahon said: THE law of the Cath
Ole Church absolutely forbids the celebra
ton Of marriage by Catholic priest when
there is to be Protestant marriage subse-
quently." He cited the instance Of Senator
Depews marriage. and continued:
my investigation, however, showed that
this was simply a deception on the cure
Of that parish deliberately practised.' He
added that those practising the deception
were guilty Of a grave breach OF honor.
Senator Depew, when SUN reporter
repeated this to him, said that no deception
had been practised The arrangements
for his marriage were made by his wife's
family, who were all Catholics. He him,
self made no promises, nor was he asked
to make any, in regard to the Protestant
ceremony.
DR.. Mcmahon read letter from Cardinal
Gibbons on the subject Of divorce. In
this the Cardinal says that while he will not
60 so far az to dictate whom Catholic ladies'
shall invite to their homes, he would sug-
gest that Divorces be left of their invi-
tation lists and that they should not accept
the hospitality of Divorces.
letter from Archbishop Farley was
read, in which the Archbishop practically
takes the same stand.

CORBETTs HURRICANE FINISH.
OutbOxed for Five Rounds by Callahan

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2l.-By making a

Corbett saved himself in his contest with

Had to-night's engagement been deter

Tim got in straight left-hand jabs with

Callahan clearly outboxed Corbett in the

he had but one round to go, set sail for all

He caught Callahan with a right hand

to land punch that would settle the con-

defeated his purpose by his impetuosity.
Callahan was weakened by the punching
he received, and the champion himself
lost some 81 his speed by his own exer

resolution providing for the anne xation
of the Island of Santo Domingo. includ-
ing it's two negro republics of Santo
Domingo and Hayti.
The State Of Nevada had by the last
census 42,335 inhabitants, population
equal only to that Of city like Saginaw,
Mich. The State of Idaho had by the
the census population of 161, ,772, not
quite so great as that of the city oi
