Archbishop Kenrick Still in I'ossesslon of Ills Title. Rome, June 6. It is stated at the Vatican that the brief cable from St. Louis announcing the pope's deposition of Archbishop Kenrick and nomination in his stead of Archbishop Kain, is due to an unfortunate misapprehension of a cable from Rome, which summarized the action taken by the congregation of the propaganda. The written decree was mailed to the United States sev eral days ago. It does not depose Arch bishop Kenriok from his present title or position nor appoint Archbishop Kain his successor. . Such action could only have been taken through a papal bull, i The present action is the decree of the congregation made for the. pur pose of assisting m the management of the administration of the church prop erty of the archdiocese. Had the arch bishop been relieved, he would have been given a new title as arohbishop of a suppressed diocese in the far Fast, in order that the change would entail no sacrifice of dignity or station, but the decree. made no ohange in his title and leaves him in possession of his present title as arohbishop of St. Louis. It de fines exactly and clearly the position of Arohbishop Kain as coadjutor, making more definite powers than were confer red upon him a year ago. It does not, however, make him successor 'to Arch bishop Kenriok, . but gives him such powers as coadjutor tnat ne will be able to carry on the laborious work of managing tne cnurcn property ana affairs as though he were archbishop in name or fact This will bring no deposition or removal of the venerable head of the archdiocese. It is regret ted the few words sent by cable sum marizing the full deoree should have been misconstrued. BLOOMERS ATTACKED, Chicago Women Cyclists Stirred Up by a Preacher's Sermon. Chicago, June 6. The "Sabbath Cyoling" sermon preaohed by Rev. Kittridge Wheeler, pastor of the Fourth Baptist church of this city, has stirred up the feminine devotees of the wheel, from the humblest shop girl who rides to her work to save oar fare, to the leaders of Chioago society. They do not resent the scoring reoeived on the ground that they have become habitual Sabbath breakers, but the ironical words in whioh this sarcastio divine holds up to ridioule the female cyoling costumes have touched the pride of every woman who has ever worn one of them and of those who- have never gone further than a short skirt worn over kniekerbookers. Mrs. Catharine MoCullooh said today in referenoe to his sermon: - ' While it may seem undignified for a minster of the gospel to leave the preaching of salvation to indulge in comicalities about women's bioycle dresses, it will not worry the bicyolers any, for few women depend on the pul pit for their f ashions. While I have not yet found time to learn to ride the bioycle, 1 congratulate all women who do ride, and especially those enterpris ing women who have adopted a more healthy, more oleanly, less dangerous and less expensive style of dress. As to the immorality of abbreviated skirts, it cannot be mentioned in the same breath with the bathing costume or the ordinary evening dress worn by fash ionable women. " - Mrs. Heaton Owsley said: "The ridiculing of any prevailing bicyole oostumes worn by women im presses me as very foolish, especially in a pulpit utterance supposed to be ser iously intended. There is nothing in trinsically immodest in either bloomers or knickerbockers. " An Exile's Tale. ! San Francisco, June 6. Karl Kleeme, ex-chief of the Hawaiian mounted polioe, has sent an affldav.it to Washington stating that he had been imprisoned and exiled because he de clared against the immigration of Jap anese which the Dole government fa vored.

He was told if he did not leave the oountry he woul be tried by a military : oourt and his two brothers would also, be -arrested. He was denied medioine brought by his wife to him. He says' Captain Davies, who landed arms for the natives, turned states' evidence and informed against many revolutionists to effect his own escape. - Denounced the Supreme Court. - Spokane. Wash.. June 6. The Trades Connoil adopted resolutions to- night denouncing the supreme court for sending Eugene V. Debs to jail, "for no other reason than it was the wish of a srreedy corporation and the plutocratic thieves of the country." The supreme court is declared to be factional, whimsical and unreliable, being out .of the reach of the people and irresponsible. It is further declar ed that members of that body have been known to change their opinions on important matters without inform' ing the publio of the reasons, causes or amont of consideration for suoh ohanges of opinion..

Matches between Tommy Ryan, of Chicago, and Billy Smith, of Boston, and the best man at the weight against Billy Plimmer for a limited or a finish fight are also men tioned. , Dallas Tex. , June 5. In pugilistio and sporting circles it is regarded as certain that the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight will take place here. . The follow ing was received here today from A. C. Stewart, who is in New York: "Am almost certain everything will be closed our way tomorrow night. I am trying hard to mike terms that will leave the Yankee money in Texas." The fight will occur during the state fair, which begins October 15 and ends the 81st. An immense building en closing an amphitheater with a seating capacity of 80,000, will have to be erected for the occasion. This build ing will probably be erected just oufc side the fair grounds. . Quebec, June 5. Attorney-General Casgrain was asked if there would be any objection on his part to the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight coming off in this province and he replied: "It certainly will not take place in the province if I can help it, and I will take all possible means to stop it if any attempt is made to have the contest come off here." - Salvation Army Defies the Ordinance.

' ' Protest From Organized Labor. Chicago, June 5. -At the meeting of the Chicago Tirade and Labor Assem bly, held at the bricklayers', hall last night, the committee appointed to in vestigate the , legality of the proposed use of street railway cars as mail cars submitted its report. : It said so far as it could learn there was no. legal au thority for the issue of permits for. the use of these cars as mail cars. In the course of the discussion on this subject, Delegate Pomeroy denounced the op position to the use of street oars as inail cats as opposition to the.' progress of civilization. The real objection to. the use of cars on street car lines is said to be that in times of labor , distrub- anoes the government might use . the lines for the transportation of ' troops, and in a case of a street car strike the men would be "compelled to refrain from stopping; the cars, of else come into conflict with the federal author! ties.,. .. . - v - -:- ...

The National Cordage Company Now in Receivers' Hands. New York, June 5. Justice Ingram, in the special term of the supreme court, today appointed John I. Water bury and William E. Strong receivers of the national Cordage Company, under bonds of $100,000. The receiv ership is the result of the proceedings instituted by B. Rollins Morse. ' . The application for the appointment of receivers was due to the fact that the company has not sufficient funds to carry on the business, and was un able to arrange for sufficient time to meet the requirements of the occasion. A receivership became necessary. Messrs. Frank Sturgis, William Bar bour and John I. Waterbury, who have agreed to act as a protective committee under the reorganization of the com pany, have issued a circular, in whioh they say that the conditions require an immediate introduction of new capital, to be represented by new first-mortgage bonds, which shall be applied to take up underlying loans and as an in creased working capital. , They submit a plan for reorganization as follows: The issue of $3,000,000 first-mortgage 6-per-oent 50-year gold r bonds. The issue of $7,500,000 consolidated mortgage 5-per cent 50-year gold bonds, With voting power. These bonds are to be non-cumulative, but to receive 5 per cent interest, payable from profits, in any year prior to any dividends on the stock of the company. In any year in whioh a dividend of 2 per cent is paid on the stock of the company, there shall be paid from profits on such con solidated bonds an amount not to ex ceed 2 1-2 per cent, provided the un paid interest in arrears on such bonds shall equal such amount, and, if not, then the to the amount of such bonds as may be so in arrears. The issue of common stock to the amount of $12, 000,000, holders of the present $7,500, 000 bonds to receive par in new con solidated bonds. Holders on present ing the stock shall subscribe at par for new first-mortgage bonds, to the amount of $20 per share, and shall re ceive 8 per cent in the common .stock of the oompany. Present preferred stock holders shall subscribe at par for the first-mortgage bonds to the amount of $10 per share, and receive 40 per cent of the new stock. Present common stockholders shall subscribe at par for the new first-mortgage bonds to- the amount of $5 per share, and Shall re ceive 25 per cent of the common stock of the ' new company. ' Deposits of present securities must be made with the Manhattan Trust Company by June 20. The subscription to the present new issue of $3,000,000 of first-mortgage bonds has been undertaken by the syn dicate.

A GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION He Accuses the Supreme Court of Hav ing Trampled Upon Bights of the People. . Springfield, Ills., June 4. Governor Altgeld is of the belief that the su preme court has established a danger ous precedent in remanding Eugene V. Debs and his American Railway . Union associates to jaiL He expressed him self in a very caustic manner today regarding the decision, and accuses the oourt of trampeling on the . rights of the people, and being the tool of a monopoly. He gives his views for pub lication in a signed statement, in which he says in part: "This decision marks a turning point in our history, for it establishes a new form of government that is, government by injunction. "The provision of the constitution that no man shall be deprived of his liberty without a trial by an impartial jury is practically wiped out by this deoisionof the supreme court of the United States, and the theory that ours is a government of law is now at an end, for every community is now sub ject to any whim or caprice whioh any federal judge may promulgate. And if federal judges can do this, then it will not be long until state judges will follow this example. For over a cen tury our government moved along the lines of the constitution, and we be came great - and powerful; life and property .-were protected, and the law was enforced. Now we have made a departure; the bulwark of liberty has been ' undermined; trial by jury has been stricken down. "For a number of years it has been remarked that the decisions of the United States oourt were nearly always in favor of the ooprorations. Then it was noticed that no man could be ap pointed to a federal judgeship unless he was satisfactory to those interests. "Over a year ago the New York World talked about a packed supreme court, and that oourt has, -within a few days, rendered two . decisions whioh unfortunately tend ' to confirm this charge. A week ago it did violence to the constitution and laws of the land by holding that the government had no power to tax the riches of this coun try. Now it has stricken down trial by jury, and nas estabiisnea -government by injunction.' "Forty years ago the slave power predominated; today it is that of cap italists. The American poepie crusnect the slave power and saved our institu tions. : Can they rescue them again? Many say yes, but they have not re flected that the crushing force. wnion now conironts tnem is greater man was ever the slave power. Capital sits in the White House and legislates in the capitol. The oourts of justice are its ministers and legislators are its lackeys. The whole ; machinery of fashionable society is its handmaid. "Just see -what a brood of evils have sprung from the power of capitalism since 1890: First, the striking down of over one-third of the money of the world, thus 'crushing the debtor class and paralyzing industry; second, the growing of that corrupt use of wealth which is undermining our institutions, debauching . publio officials, shaping legislation, and creating judges who do its bidding; third, the exemption or the rich from taxation; fourth, the sub stitution of government by injunction for government by the constitution; fifth, - the striking down of trial by jury.

A private let ter from Honolulu, under date of May 20, printed in the , JNews today, says among other things, that MoLane, late of the United States army and navy, who had. charge of General Grant's funerl procession, has been made colo- nel of an Hawaiian regiment. . lie ar rived on the last boat and took charge at once. He is regarded by. the troops as. thoroughly military, and has made some radical changes and inaugurated a oourse of strict discipline, which has heretofore been rather lax. The letter adds that there are lots of rumors afloat on the island of a filibustering expedi tion that is supposed to be on its way down the islands, or else getting ready to come.. The government has hired a steamer, placed a cannon on board, and has it patrol around the islands watching for any suspicious vessels that come in sight. To' Prison for life. . Detroit, Mich., June 6. The jury in the case of Mrs. Nellie Pope, charg ed with the murder of her husband, r& turned a verdict of guilty this after noon. She was immediately sentenced to life imprisonment INVESTMENT IN MINES. Eagerness Prevailing in Europe Soon to . . ' Beach This Country. San Francisco, June 4. Irwin C. Stump believes that the eagerness for investment in mines which now pre vails in London, Paris, and Berlin will soon extend to New York and spread over this oountry. He looks for a genuine boom in mining properties in the United States. As he is at the focus of mining thought and enterprise in New York, his opinion is of value. He further said: . "I would not express an opinion of . that kind unless I had some foundation for it. And I will explain to you why I think that a great deal of money will be invested in American mines in a short time. . There is . at, present as great excitement in London over min ing properties as there was in San Francisoo in 1876 over the Comstock. Men with money want mining proper- ty. This eagerness for mining proper ties is not confined to London, but is quite keen in Paris and BeVlin. In fact mines are now the favorite invest ment throughout Europe. ' ! "We had a similar boom in Califor nia during the Comstock days, but the exoitement of those days and the in-' vestments then made are insignificant -to that which is now going on in Lon don. Europe is now engrosed with the properties in Africa and Australia. The efforts to mine for gold in the new fields in Australia will in all probabil ity be a failure, owing to the lack of water there. The quest now will be confined to Africa. The system of de veloping those properties is as follows: An exploration company was formed of which the Rothschilds are the chief spirits, and Cecil Rhodes the promoter in Africa. This oompany as the name implies, explores the country ; for mines. . The stock of iron mines is . placed on the exchange in London for sale, and this the people all over Eu rope are buying. Now as to America. There is no doubt , that an exploration company will be formed in New York on the same lines as those in London. It would doubtless have been organized this month had certain gentlemen re mained in New York. Senator Jones is deeply interested in the project, and D. O. Mills and J. W. Mackay will in vest. : New York is quite as ready to take up mining investments as London or Paris. - All the .money needed to. oarry on a work in the" United " States similar to that which the Rothschilds are backing in Africa can be had in New York in a short time. 'The exploration company which will be organized in New York in a few weeks or months will operate in this way: "In the first place it will have a very large working capital. - If a mine owner comes with a mine for sale to the company he will be requested to pay for an examination of the property by one of the experts of the company. If the report is satisfactory ' the com pany will buy the property and de velop it or will endeavor to sell it, charging a commission. With the in dorsement 'of the property by the com pany this will not. be difficult to do; or, if the mine-owner wants enough money to put up a mill, the company will do that and take a share of the returns; or the oompany will take a proportion of, the stock, with a view of opening it up to see what it oontainS. If it is not satisfactory after a certain amount of work has been done, it will be dropped and the loss accepted. , It will be the aim also of the company to list the stock of the "mines on the ex changes and offer it lor sale to the pub-. lie. , - "New York is eager for this move ment. The great exoitement in -Europe over mines has extended to this country, and the people in the East are ready to invest their money in mines. It is my opinion that this country is a better field for a mining boom than ' Africa or Australia. We have good mining territory in New Mexico, Ari zona, California, Colorado, Nevada, Utah, " Oregon, - Idaho, Montana andj Washington, There are innumerable prospects here which will pay a com- -pany to explore. "New. York is now the center of mining interests in the United States. There are ten mines offered for sale there now to one in San Frftnoisco, and scarcely a day passes that three or four mine-owners do not call at my office with a property for sale. If an exploration company takes hold of these properties, examines them care fully by a oompetent expert and then publishes his opinion of them,, people in the East will have more confidence in them and will put their money in them. I think this movement in American mines will begin in the fall." . ; An Altrurian Colony Split Up. Santa Rosa, Cal., June 6,' It is rumored that the Altrurian colony, lo cated at Markwest, a few miles from this city, split up into two factions re cently.
