TOO MUCH WISDOM
Archbishop Ireland's Reproof
to Catholic Agitators.
HAVE NO CAUSE FOR COMPLAINT
Adjnutmcnt of Matters in the Phil
ippines la Xow in Hands of Men
Qualified to Deal Justly WItli
All i Interests.
ST. PAUL, Aug. 3. Archbishop Ireland,
preaching today in the Cathedral, said In
jJart:
"The Apostle Paul gives this counsel,
'Not to be more "wise than It behooveth
to be wise; but to be wise unto sobriety
and according as God hath divided to
every one the measure of faith.' In the
mind of the apostle things most excellent,
if made use of in unduo measure and
without proper regard to circumstances
or time and, place, change into things
perilous and hurtful. And this is un
doubtedly -what is happening in the case
of the fiery zeal in defense of Catholic
interests which seems fo be courting an
explosion at the present time among cer
tain classes of American Catholics. The
Interests of the church, it is said, aro
made to suffer at the hands of tho Gov
ernment in Its newly acquired dependen
cies, and the call to arms is sounded from
the rostrums of Catholic societies and
through tho columns of Catholic papers,
to the perturbation of the -whole Catholic
body, and. Indeed, of the whole country.
The moment has come to say to Catholics,
"Be v wise; be zealous unto sobriety and
according as God hath dhided to every
one the measure of faith,' and such coun
sel I take liberty to give to my hearers.
"Who are they who complain and pro
test and call upon Catholics to be up and
doing? Are they those who might claim
tc represent the church In its general or
even local interests? Has tho sovereign
pontiff spoken? Certainly he has not com
plainedrather has he been heard from
in very .different tones. Have the ec
clesiastical authorities in the dependencies
Invoked our aid? In no instance have
they so acted. Where they have been
heard from, as in the case of Porto Rico
and of Cuba, it was to tell us in the plain
est words that they had no grievance,
although from Irresponsible sources It had
been on several previous occasions dinned
into our cars that the church was robbed
and persecuted in both those islands.
"Whatever complaints have been heard
come from individual Catholics or from
societies of Catholics. In neither case is
there warrant to represent others than
the men themselves, or the societies them
selves, who do speak.
"Most cautious at all times must Cath
olics in America be, not to stir up latent
prejudice and smothered animosities, of
which, as experience teaches, there Is no
brnall share here and there In the commu
nity, and which but little provocation is
needed to fan into lire and flame. Better
often it Is to endure some suffering than
to give a pretext for opposition and social
turmolL Nothing is to be more dreaded
in America than hatred and warring
among citizens in the name of religion,
and it behooves all classes of the popula
tion to do their utmost to nurture and
maintain peace and harmony; It behooves
CathoU.cs even more than others to be
models of prudence and good will In this
regard. The simplest approach among
them to form a political party on the basis
cf religious Interests would be fatal to
those interests and fatal to public peace.
It is quite easy for a few to kindle a fire
which will threaten ravage to a whole
community, and which a whole commu
nity will find it an arduous task to ex
tinguish. "Nor is public agitation necessary in
America to redress grievances, if griev
ances do exist, whether such grievances
have origin, as is moro often the case,
Irom mere inadvertence, or, as it more
rarely happens, from malice aforethought
on the part of the individual officials ot
the Government. I say It advisedly, as I
am prepared to stand by what I here say;
there Is always surcease from grievances,
to far as circumstances may allow, if It
Is sought through quiet and reasonable
methods from the right representatives of
the Government. Let Justice be done in
America; In no other country is there a
government so fair-minded, so impartial,
eo willing to treat all classes with abso
lute Justice as that with which we are
blessed in America.
"And let Catholics be careful lest by
imprudent agitation and repeated mis
trust of the Government of America they
instill into the minds of many of their
fellow-citizens the notion that as Catho
lics they are disposed .to form themselves
into a people apart, ever dissatisfied with
America and its institutions, ever ready
to complain, ever anxious to find a plea
upon which to rest their murmurlngs.
The Catholic body will never prosper In
America unless it be thoroughly Imbued
"With the spirit of the country and with
a deep' love for its welfare. To be one
with the country is the lesson which Pope
Xeo Is ceaselessly teaching Catholics in
every country; it is tho lesson which I
em confident he would wish Catholics In
America to take to heart and to prac
tice, even were there in so doing some
sacrifice to be made.
"As to matters in the Philippine Isl
ands, we cannot discuss them. They are
for the time being put beyond our reach
since they are the subject of negotiations
between the Government of America and
4he sovereign pontiff. To take at the
present such matters into our own hands
would be to mistrust the wisdom and the
good will of the sovereign pontiff, and
.of this loyal Catholics should not bo ca
pable; it would be to treat with discour
teous Ingratitude the Administration in
Washington and this, as true Americans,
Catholics will not permit themselves to
do. . The logic of the situation In presence
of strange complications for church and
state arising from a change of sovereign
ty in the Philippine Islands, pointed to a
mutual conference between the head of
the church and a representative of the
state as the proper and dignified way to
a final and peaceful solution. Leo XIII
6aw this; Theodore Roosevelt saw this.
Leo took the initiative, proposed the con
ference and asked tho Government to ex
pose frankly and thoroughly its views;
tho President and his advisers accepted
the proposal. What more could have
been done by the Administration to prove
Its good will and sense of Justice? If
the Administration had refused to send
a representative to Rome, verily, what
clamorlngs there would have been, and
now, when It has sent a representative
to Rome and agrees to the further pro
posal of the Vatican to transfer negotia
tions to Manila, clamorlngs are still
raised. Well, some people are born- to
clamor: and privilege to clamor must bo
allowed to them. Be It co. but we shall
Insist that they clamor In their own name
and not in tho name of the church in
America, nnd for our own part we shall
hold our souls in peace, leaving church
interests in the Philippines to one who
understands them at least as well as we
do, and who -will be as" wise in disposing
of them as we could weM hope to be
Leo XIII."

han, of Columbus', president of tho Fed

"Zly attention has been called to a wide
ly circulated criticism in a supposed in
terrtew with me, ot Archbishop Ireland's
recent Interview on the matter of the
withdrawal of the friars from the Philip

made out of whole cloth. When requested
to give an Interview I replied that I
had nothing to say."

Neglect of Children.
New York Christian Advocate.
A writer in one of our contemporaries
has been calling attention to the uninten
tional and yet pitiful neglect of children
in these days of absorption In business
life. The father goes away early and
comes home late and tired, and finds
neither time nor Inclination for conversa
tion, romping or even getting better ac
quainted with his children. The little
ones who may have been led to expect
some play or fondling with papa are put
to bed frequently, disappointed and with
a vague sense that their affections are
being starved in them. We fear that
there is too much truth in this represen
tation. Even those of us who are not
caught In the niaelstrom of business life
are apt to be too careless and to let the
daj's go by, as wo are wholly taken up
by our own plans, and wo forget those
nearest and dearest to ns wfio may be
longing for a little more of our time and
of our hearts. Wo do not mean to be
selfish and to cheat either others or our
selves of the sweetest delights of life,
but all unconsciously we do. We give
the world and our tasks too much of our
selves, and wife and children too little.
Meanwhile the babies and boys and girls
are growing up, and In a fewchort years
will have flown away to make nests of
their own. Who of us, as he has thought
of it, has not wakened to a sense of self
reproach and has not felt guilty of fraud
upon his own most precious joys and
privileges and the rights and happiness
of others? Well for us If, before it is too
late, we bring forth fruits meet for re
pentance. Thunder Jarred "Window Loose.

EUROPE TO WAR NO MORE.
To Reduce Armaments and "Watch
the United States.
ROME, Aug. 3. With regard to the
statements in these dispatches under the
date of July 13, that one of tho principal
questions of discussion between King
Emmanuel and. the Czar of Russia upon
the occasion of the former's visit to St.
Petersburg would be the reduction of
armaments, a representative here of the
Associated Press learns that King Em
manuel's visit to Emperor William at
Berlin the latter part of this month 13
intended to continue this same work in
the direction of reaching an International
understanding in the matter of reduced
armaments, the King of Italy having
been encouraged by the Czar, who la
ready to reassume tho leadership of the
movement that he Initiated at The Hague
peace conference.
According to information received from
an authoritative source, the sovereigns
referred to argue that tho time of Euro
pean wars is almost over, as their inter
ests are so great in other continents that
it is not -worth while to fight for a strip
of land here and there In Europe. Con
sequently the large armaments which are
now Intended for European conflicts
might be reduced or transformed for the
defenso of colonial Interests, the gain
being devoted to the Improvement of
commerce and industry and for a collect

FIRST SHOOT' TO KILL
INVESTIGATE AFTERWARDS OR
DER TO TROOPS. -
Severe Treatment for Those Who
Assault Soldiers From Am
bush Three. Alarms.
SHENANDOAH, Pa., Aug. 3. Tho en
tire Twelfth Regiment was called to arms
last night as a result of three attacks
by men In ambush, who assaulted the
troops now In- camp on the plateau out
side the town. These attacks are becom
ing so frequent that Brigadier-General
Gobln has decided to adopt stern meas
ures to end them. Tonight a double
guard, supplied with ball cartridges, sur
rounds the cap. and the sentries have
been instructed that If last night's stone
throwing Is repeated they must shoot to
kill and Investigate afterward. One of
the attacking party, a Llthunlan named
William Stoponitz, Is under arrest, and
the Provost Marshal Is- on the trail of
others believed to number more than a
dozen.
The. first attack, according to Colonel
Theodore F. Hoffman, was made at 10:43
o'clock last night. Private Payne, of
Company I, on sentry duty, saw a party
of men on the Mahony City road, which
separates the camp of the Eighth Regi
ment from the Twelfth. He commanded
the men to halt and called the Corporal
of the Guard, but before the latter could
respond a shower of stones and rocks
were thrown at the sentry. One rock
struck him on the chest, knocking him
down, and causing his gun to fall from
thls hands. He Jumped up and fired sev
eral shots in the air, and as he did so
the men ran down the road. Ono of the
pickets captured Stoponitz, but tho other
escaped.
The shooting aroused the whole camp,
and the Eighth Regiment was put under
arms, and Companies B, E and K were
aoon out in skirmish Hne3. They beat
the underbrush and laurel, which is Ave
or six feet high all around the camp, but
failed to find any one, and then returned
to quarters. Fifteen minutes later" an
other shower of stones was thrown at
the stable guard, located south of the
Eighth Regiment. The guard turned out,
and three men were seen running away,
but no pursuit was given.
Shortly after 3 o'clock this morning a
third attack was made, and it was of
such a nature that the bugler, under or
ders from Colonel Hoffman, sounded the
whole regiment to arms. The stable
guard was again the object of attack,
several volleys of stones being sent in
tho direction of the sentries. The regi
ment was under arms and ready for ac-
tion within three minutes. Ori account
of tho laurel, underbrush and the dark
ness, the soldiers could not see the of
fenders. However, the sentries fired
about a dozen shots Into the bushes, but
it is believed no one was hit.
Some of the bullets -went whistling over
the tents of tho sleeping soldiers jot the
Twelfth Regiment, across the road. The
noise of the firing and the bugle call
aroused tho Twelfth Regiment, and the
Governor's troop of cavalry, and each
sent out detachments to Investigate tho
trouble. Another thorough Investigation
was made, without result, and then tho
command, after standing In formation for
30 minutes, was called to quarters. It
was not again disturbed.
Colonel Hoffman made a report to Brigadier-General
Gobln, who came to camp
during the day to make an Investigation.
He put Stoponitz through a searching ex
amination. The prisoner said there were
only four1 men in the body. He gave tho
name of one of them as Michael Tavotiz,
and said that he did not know the others.
He made several contradictory state
ments. Stoponitz was placed In the guard
tent, and tomorrow will be turned over
to the civil authorities. The Brigadier
General has issued orders that stringent
measures be taken with all such of
fenders. "I have ordered several rounds of ball
cartridges to be issued to each sentry,"
he said, "and that the officer of the
guard be Instructed to have them used.
The guard at the camp will also be In
cluded." Colonel Hoffman said:
"Last night's occurences demonstrate
that we can be ready for any emergency
in three minutes, and hereafter will stand
no nonsense and will give a bullet for
each stone."
The Colonel said there is an ugly feel
ing among many persons against the
troops. Reports are being made to him
dally of soldiers being annoyed on tho
streets.
It was the Intention of Colonel Hoffman
to glvo a parade In the town proper as a
compliment to the Brigadier-General, but
owing to last night's affair the parade
took place within camp. Tho soldiers
spent a quiet day. There was a large
Sunday crowd out. Tomdrrow the cav
alry will be sent out on short marches.
General Gobln today gave out the follow
ing statement:
"The published reports to the effect
that members of the National Guard re
fused to work In laying water pipes to
the camp, and that certain soldiers had
suggested that they were union men. and

Coal Strikers Still Confident That
They Will Win.
WILKESBARRE. Pa., Aug. 3. Presi
dent Mitchell made another visit to Scran
ton today. Before departing he said there
was no change in the strike situation. He
did not think that an attempt would be
made to resume work at any of the col
lieries during the coming we.ek- From
what ho could learn the Oxford mine In
tho Lackawanna region was being op
erated by new men. None of the old em
ployes had returned and at a meeting
they pledged themselves not to return.
Mr. Mitchell said the same conditions
prevailed throughout the entire region.
The strikers were still confident they
were going to win, and so long as they
felt that way there was little probability
that they would report for work. It was
reported today that work will be resumed
at Woodward Colliery of the Delaware.
Lackawanna. & Western Company tomor
row, and that a number of old firemen
would report for work. J. F. Mullahy,
state secretary of the Stationary Fire
men's Association, did not think that
any of the firemen would go back, but
he Issued an address today urging all
striking firemen to keep away from the
mine and stand by President Mitchell un
til the strike was won.
The Public Alliance and the Working
men's Alliance, two organizations said to
be opposed to the Citizens' Alliance, have
been organized here. They will send a
petition signed by thousands of citizens
to the coal operators asking them to ar
bitrate, and If they refuse. Governor Stone
will be requested to take some action to
compel the coal companies to make new
terms with their employes.

promising not to resume his car he "was
escorted home in a roundabout way to
escape the crowds. The conductor on the
same car and linemen were taken home
In pabs to escape the mobs.
Cars were held up all over the city until
noon, when traffic was suspended. The
nonunion men were afraid to run through
the. crowds nt Catlettsburg and Ashland.
Ky.. and other points on the Kentucky
and West Virginia side o the Ohio River.
The Ironton strikers ran cabs and did
most of the traillc. The concert at
Beechwood Park, the railway company's
pleasure resort, was abandoned, the Iron
ton orchestra declining to play after the
strike was declared. Tfie crowds of union
sympathizers had full sway without mo
lestation from the authorities, not a po
liceman shdwlng up at any of the points
of disturbance. The local militia leaves
for camp tomorrow, and the preservation
of order will devolve upon the officials
In case of more serlou3 outbreaks, almost
certain to occur if the cars are operated.
General Attorney Vinson, of the Camden
Company, arrived here this evening, and
had an Informal conference with the strike
leaders. He said the company was will
ing to recognize the union, but there were
no assurances tonight of speedy settle

General Strike Disorder on Camden
Interstate Line.
HUNTINGTON, W. Va.. Aug. 3. Thero
has been general disorder today through
out Huntington, Central City and other
towns through which the lines of the
Camden Interstate Line runs, as a result
of the general strike order of motormen
and conductors, which was to have taken
effect today. But few of the motormen
and conductors In West Virginia and
Kentucky obeyed the ordpr, but every
man quit work along the line in towns
on the Ohio side of the river. The lines
here were blockaded by the friends of
union labor, and the city authorities
seemed powerless or rather made no ef
fort to preserve order. The Sheriff also
refused to act and the company officials
have applied to Governor White for pro
tection. Motormen, conductors and pas
sengers have been dragged from cars and
the disorder seems on the increase, but
cars are still running with nonunion labor
on this side of the Ohio River.
