CAPSIzED AND SANK.
Steamer Hackley Goes Down Of
 Green Island.

Steamer Hack1ey Goes Down Of
 Green Island.
 ' MARINETTE, Wis, Oct 5-During squan on Lake Michigan the steamer ?. H. Hackley capsized,, and, twelve per sons were drowned The Goodrich line steamer sheboygan rescued the other seven persons on Board the $Hackley after they had drifted all night in Green bay, clinging to bits of wreck age, and brought them to Fish Greek.
 The Hackley was struck by. the squall when off Green island, seven miles from this port. The upper works of the vessel were blown away, and the boat turned over and went down in deep water.
 AS the Hackley went to the bottom those who would and could seized on floating pieces of wreckage, while the women and three or four of the men, failing to find any object to which to cling, sank in the sea.
 The waves were rolling high, and sev- eral of these who lat first saved them selves from immediate death lost strength and sank. ;. The steamer She Doygan sighted the. helpless sHrV1Vors and effected their rescue.
 The officers of the Sheboygan feel sure that they took aboard every per son afloat, but some of the persons who were rescued say thst:it is possible that one or more of the eleven persons miss ing may have escaped death. This view is not givens much .credence by the sailors of The SheRaygRT1
 The persons savedSby the sheboygan say that with the carrying away of the upper works all persons aboard the Haekley ran on deck. Hasty prepara- tions for plunge into the water were begun, but before any plans could be carried out the boat listed turned over and went down like rock.
 Search is still making for any persons who may have escaped death and for the bodies of those who were drowned.

QUESTION OF ETHICS.
Wayne Mac Veagh Continued Argu-
 ment for United States.

SA@@S~0
 The Hague, Oct 5.-Wayne Mac Veagh, senior counsel for the United States, continuing his argument to-day before the Venezuelan arbitration tribunal, declared that the question be- fore the tribunal was one of ethics, namely, whether or not the war against Venezuela was just and neces- sary. He maintained that the com plaints of Great Britain were merely a pretext for war. He said Venezuela had far greater right on her side when she complained of the dispatch of a British vessel from London to the Caribbean sea to deliver a cargo of arms to the insurgent chief, General Mates, through the intermediary of agents at Trinidad. Counsel said he found no precedent in history for such a purely financial war as, he declared, was undertaken by Great Britain ana Germany for the protection of railroad companies bondholders and in support of the claims of the Disconto Gesell- SChaft

ARCHBISHOP FALCoNlo.
Ene Guest of Rev ". J. slocum Of the
 Immaculate Conception Church.

Irnmaculate Conception Church.
 Monsignor Dfomede Falconio, apos- Eolfc delegate to the United States, wdl honor Waterbury with his presence to- night and all day tomorrow. Arch bishop Falconio, who will be the guest of Rev W. J. Slocum during his stay In this city, arrived here this morning from Winsted. He was accompanied by the reverend pastor of the Immac- nlate Conception church.
 Tonight the distinguished archbish- Dp will give benediction at the 1m- maculate Conception church. The services will commence at 7:30. To- morrow morning at o'clock the papal nuncio will celebrate mass at the Inn maculate Conception church. Both of these services will no doubt be at tended by large congregations who are eager to see the representative of the pope, who formerly ministered to the needs of Catholics in Waterbury.
 The greater part of the day the dis fnguished prelate will probably spend m being driven about the city and being shown the various places of in- herest, the Catholic churches and paro- chial schools and some of Wiaterbury's misunderstanding concerns. Tomorrow might a reception will be rendered to htdn at the Convent de Notre Dame by Ehe al1mnae of that institutfon. We'd mesday Archbishop FalcoFio will leave bon an early train for Washington.
 It was the original intention to hold h public reception in honor of the rep Eesentative of the pope, but it was nbandoned because there is no hall Aarge enough to accommodate the mumber of people who would like to see him. On the occasion of the last visit of papa1 delegate. Cardinal Sa- Holn, to this city, several years ago, public reception was accorded him in St Pa&rdck's hall The crowd which turned out was so immense that half bf them were unable to see him and in the confusion which ensued many per sons had marrow escapes from being seriously injured.
 The priests in this city who are graduates of st Bonaventure's college, AIlegany, N. T.. also proposed to ten her him reception at the Convent de Notre Dame tonight, but at the sug gestion of the archbishop it was aban- Honed.
 The visit of the pope's representa- Hive to this city attracts more than or Hinary interest owing to the fact that Archbishop Falconio was formerly an assistant priest at the Immaculate Donception church.
 Archbishop Falconfo was present in eWinsted yesterday at the celebration Eof the fiftieth anniversary of the es- taaoiishment of St Joseph's church. At Hfred in robes of magnificent sp1endor, Hinffcant of his office, and surround ed by half hundred priests, he con- ducted pontifca1 mass yesterday morn hng and bestowed upon the vast null Htude the apostolic blessing. The as Eistant priest was the Rev Father Slo- kum, who delivered the jubilee ad- dress. It was an eloquent oration.

MEN DIDN'T SHOW UP

Rumford Falls, Me, Oct 5.--Al- though the strike at the International Paper mills was declared off last week some men objected to making personal application for the positions occupied by them previous to the strike.

An Objectionable Book.

Some days ago, a Student
Reference work in two volumes
was shown to Doctor j. G. Deu-
pree, Dean of the Department Of
Education, in the State Universe
ty, by an agent of the publishers,
who wanted a testimonial as to
the merit of the book. After
reading recommendations from
Roark, Phillips, and others, DR..
Deupree said he must look into
the book for himself before he
would recommend it. Accord
ingly, he was allowed to keep the
book over night. Next morning
when the agent called for the
testimonial, the Doctor thanked
him for the privilege of examin-
ing the book and then frankly
told him he could not say any,
thing in its favor, because of its
unfairness and injustice to the
South. While many Northern
officers of comparatively low rank
are mentioned and lauded for
their services in the Civil War,
yet such names as Frank Cheat
ham, Pat Cleburne, Earl Van
Dorm, Stephen D. Lee, and A.
P. Stewart, and others famous
and beloved in the South, are
conspicuously absent. Even in
of Sherman's repulse at
Chickasaw. Bayou, Lee is not
mentioned. ssBut besides onis-
sions and defects, in some places
the book is positively .unsavory
and offensive, notably in its arti-
ticle of Lincoln when it takes oc-
casion to speak of our Southern
leaders as rebels, and in its arti-
cles on Wendell Phillips, William
Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher
ct i'd omne genus, whom it
paints in spotless purity and well
nigh deifies. The tone and spirit
Of the book is sectional, tending
to corrupt and vitiate Southern
sentiment and to lead Southern
youth. to blush for the deeds of
their fathers in 1861 1866. Such
books must not be put into the
hands of our children. So thinks
DR.. Deupree.
