PALMA WILL FIGHT.
Cuban President Intends to Suppress
Rebellion at Any Cost.

Havana, Sept. 2-The hopes of those
who on Saturday night tentatively sug-
gest.d 4 project If mutual concessions as
a means Of ending the rebellion were
shattered today when President Palma
called General Cebreco, one Of the pro-
posed peace commissioners. to the palace
to inform him that the government had
no concessions to offer or accept and no
intention other than fighting the matter
through ana suppressnc the insurrcction.
The promoters, however, are not entirely
discouraged, and another meeting may be
held later.
The Associated Press learned today
from 4 source ordinarily SO reliable as to
be absolutely beyond question, that the
inner circle of th" government had about
reached tentative understanding that if
tie government was unable to control
the insurrection by Sept i it would ask
for the assistance of the United States.
but when this assertion was hro.ched to
members Of the government it was met
with such IN emphatic denial as 10 leave
10 room for doubt that whatever the
government may have discussed it has
decided to see the thing through by all
lnN lOrcc bl arms IL can toIaHltl'"i ana
abide by the results.
One of the main reasons why tn" gov
crnmcnt fe"ls encouraged 10 pursue tn"
fight to the end by force is. as outlined
to Tho Associated Press this evening by
Font Sterling. sacrctary OF the treasury,
it's abundance of money.
I'VE have Sl9.o0oGC0 or hand" said the
secretary of the treasury. "Don't over
look that. And We have 4 monthly in
come of s2.COOo0O. The August receipts
ana customs duties were greater than
ever before We will not need to ncSO-
tate loans for some time To come, at
least. Yes, most of what we have has
been appropriated by Congress. hut thos"
appropriations must wait. We shall use
the money in putting down the rebellion.
What IS beginning to disturb business
interests more than anything els" is the
evidence that tobacco planting. Suc1" cul-
tivation md crop preparations will begin
50 late as to be ru;nouS to the coming
winter crops.
War preparations in Havana are in
crcaeinc. but the Sunday night gaiety is
llnaband0ncd and tho liGhthcartedncss Of
the people is the same tonight that is al

InPecuIiar and Sensational
Way at Northampton
Famous Bank Robbers Had
Plans for Escape All Laid.
Accident Nov, After 80 Years, Shows What
Frustrated Scheme Was.

Northampton, Mass, Sept. 2.-One OF
the most noted bank robberies in the
histor yof the country, that of the
Northampton National Bank 80 years
ago, when s1,50O,OcO was stolen, was
brought to mnid by a remarkable dis
coyery at the county Jail Saturday. a
bundle of weapons, implements ana
disguises with which James Dunlap
and Robert Scott. the leaders Of the
celebrated band of robbers, had evi-
IDENTIFY planned to make their escape
while in Jail 20 years ago, was found
under odd circumstances.
A sound like that of pistol shot was
heard by a prisoner at the Jail and he
called it to the attention of a guard.
The report had evidently come from
the large ventilator which runs through
the building. and with which the pris-
oner's cell was connected. An investi-
dgation below resulted in the discovery
Of a bundle in a newspaper yellow with
age. 1t contained two large reTolTers,
two or three dozen cartridges. knives.
saws, flies, a pocket compass, an Oh
map OF Massachusetts, a mask Of flan-
mel and other wearing apparel, which
mad been eaten by moths.
High Sheriff J. E. Clark. in charge
Of the Jail. explained the mystery when
he called to mind the fact that Dunlap
and Scott had occupied the cell from
which the ventilator led.
1t was apparent on further investi-
cation that the bundle had been suS-
pended by string in the tiue. and that
with age the string broke, allowing tht
things to fall. BY striking the base al
the f!ue one of the cartridges exploded
accounting for the sound of a pistO
shot that led to the interesting diScov-
cry.
The newspapers in which the weapons
and tools had been wrapped were pub.
lished in 1877. They contained refer
ences to the trial of the bank robbers
The Northampton Bank was robbed
Jan. 26, 1876. Dunlap was sentenced i
Is years in the state prison, and wa

The Very Rev. j. Raymurd Volz,
o. p, for some time Prior of ST..
Louis Bertrand's church on Sixth,
who left Louisville to assume the
Presidency of the new st. Joseph's
College at Columbus, Ohio, has re-

literary work. Father Nolz is one of
the ablest and most scholarly Catho-
lie writer's of the present day.
Rev. Father Richard j. Meaney, o.
p. of Washington, has been APP
pointed to succeed Father Nolz,
which will be welcome news to the
Catholics of this city. Many will
remember Father Meaney as a Linn
ericl< boy. who entered college during
the days of John Gillen. the leading
grocer at that time in the Southern
part of the city. Since his ordina-
tion Father Meaney was stationed
for a time at the Dominican church
here and it was with sincere regret
that the congregation parted with

FINEST SYSTEM.
Louisville Railway Company
To Make Its Road Best in
Country.

The tendency in all cities is to
criticise street railway systems of
that particular city. Louisville's
railway street car service has been
severely commented upon on many
occasions, sometimes justly, but
often otherwise. The system, it is
true, was not up to date until re-
Gently. Credit must be given, how
ever to President Minary and his as
sociates for the many improvements
made within the last few years. The
system of transfers is admirable
within the city. The company is
extending its suburban service all
over Jefferson county. The COM
pany is proceeding without a flourish
of trumpets but it is going ahead.
Within the next year 1t is said to be
the intention of the Louisville Rail-
way Company to make its system the
finest in the United States.

statuary marble, deliberately carved
ing made in New York City. To the
right and left of the large altar
will be two smaller affairs, one be-
ing st. Joseph's altar, and the other
being the altar OF the Blessed Vir-
gin. The chancel will contain the
Bishops throne. These pieces will
be made of white walnut.
The general tone in the mural
decorations is rose and the orna-
mental work is relieved in old ivory.
On the four panels of the ceiling
will be painted pictures Of the key
of St. Peter, the Sword of st.
Paul" and other objects of similar
character. The entire chancel will
be filled with figures painted upon
the walls. Among the images that
the chancel are those of st. Peter, st.
Paul, Jesus Christ, st. Joseph and
the Virgin Mary. The work will be
done in color.
The massive pipe organ for the
Cathedral will cost $500, and will
be of oak. treated so IS to be of
an odd brown color. The organ will
be placed in the organ loft above
the main vestibule at the west end
of the Cathedral and will be operat-
ed by means of an electric motor.
The choir will also be stationed in
the organ loft.
When completed the Cathedral
will have six entrances in all, one on
the south, two On the north and
three at the front or west side.
1t is the purpose of the RI. Rev.
Bishop Chatard to complete the Ca
thedral urding his lifetime. Bishop
.Chatard is growing old. He sue
ceeded Bishop McCloskey as Presi-
dent of the American College in
Rome thirty-seven years ago and
has been Bishop of Indianapolis for
about twenty-seven years.
