HUNGARY EXPOSED.
Sensational Pamphlet Sent to
Prominent Men.

Washington. July 25.-The Post to-
morrow will publish the following:
Hungary exposed is the title of a
sensational pamphlet incorporated in an
appeal to the president, the secretary
of state, Cardinal Gibbons, and the
archbishopS and bishops of the United
States, from the Catholic priests hav-
ing charge of Hungarian congrega-
tions throughout this country. On the
fly leaf appears this sentence:
Secret state document. revealing the
plotting of that government in the
United States. American, Slavoks and
RuthenianS, the Irish of Hungary to
be the Victims
The ''secret document proves. to be
a ministerial communication bA the
Hungarian minister of religion and in
struction to the Cardinal prince pri-
mate archbishop of EStergOn, in refer
ence to the HungarianS who have eml-
grated to the United States. The doc
ument which is signed by NJ. komloS-
sis. an officer of the ministerial bureau,
declares that the Hungarians are emil
grating in increasing numbers to the
United States, and that their patriotic
spirit and religious faith is rapidly dis
appearing.
Mr.. Komlossy then defines the action
resolved upon by the Hungarian priests
to take chrge of the American MISSIONS
the conclusion Of a concOrdant of prln-
ciples between the congregation de pro-
ganda fide and the Hungarian govern
ment toward the appointment of an
apostolic delegate at Washington. and
likewise. at the expense of the Hunga-
rian government, to keep the Ruthen-
ians and Slavoks in the United States
under surveillance in the interest OF
their guidance. M. Komlossy declares
that from a point of internal politics OF
Hungary, the necessity of acquiring
control of the spiritual conduct of the
Hungarians in America is one of the
most serious questions confronting the
state today.

ST. Petersburg, July 25.-Olrector
Hartwig of the Asiatic department ct
the Russian foreign office talked long,
earnestly and frankly to a representa-
tive of the Associated Press regarding
Manchurid. He declared that he could
not understand Prince Ching's state
ment to United States Minister Con-
ger, but he presumed that the port
question would be arranged. Russia,
he said, excluded Hartsin from the port
possibilities because of it's railway i'm
portance, but he could see no objections
to two or more other ports being
opened.
Passing to the statement of Ameri-
can opinion regarding Manchuria, the
director made a remarkably outspokeA
attack upon England. He said:
L do not comprehend how Russia,
whose foreign policy is the most
straight forward, can be accused or
duplicity, when Englands double deal
ing is question that should be appar-
ent to everybody. Whoever heard
New Chwang mentioned before we
brought order there? Who is building
Dadney as a free port? Russia has
ten thousand miles of Chinese frontier"
he said, shall we place ourselves on
the same footing as others? When We
saved Admiral Seymour from destruc-
ton why did nobody protest against
knichow? What is the outcry for?
Does anybody suppose we are going to
be compelled to rellnquish the railway
to Honnghonneses or other marauders2
Il repeat that we do not fea- war
even with five powers. Our defeat in
the Crimea is a glorious chapter in our
history, and I do not believe that any
five powers desire to get their new
laurels like those Of the Crimea. What
can Japan do? Suppose Japan defeat
ed the Russian army, we would crush
Japan to sand. Japan exists upon Rus
sian fish.
1T IS your duty to expose England's
dplicity. Some English dispatches sur
pass Opera Boue. Here is a dispatch
just received stating that Japan is pre-
pairing for war and that the entire
Japanese squadron is now at Vladivo-
stock where foreign warships are not
allowed at ALL
Director Hartwig generally and spe-
cifically denied the reports regarding
Russia's mobilization of troops.
