KANVAS CITT , Oct. ! I2. Ex-Champion .lohn
I * . Sullivan , who is playing nt ono of the
theaters In this city , In an Interview this
evening said that ho had not been nslted to
act ns referee in the coming Corbott-Mltch-
ell contest , nnd declared If hu wcro offered
the chnnco ho would not accept It.
Aslied for his opinion ns to the outcome of
the light , ho said ho did not euro to maUo n
guess It would take a wlso man to pick thu
vrfnnor. Ho hnd mot both of them and
know thoh'worth. Though Jt had been said
that Mitchell had grown too old to light as
ho uted to , ho declared \ho Britisher wns Ih
excellent shnpa nnd would put up n good
light. IIo reiterated his statements mndo n
few days since , that the fight would proba
bly come of nt Itoby , Ind. , and declared
"Governor Matchcws was only making n
Niw YOIIK. Oct. U-i If Governor Flower
had n hand In stopping the Mltcholl-Corbott
light at Coney Inland ho will not say so. IIo
wns seen In n corridor of the Hoffman house
today nnd asked whether It was his Inten
tion to prevent the light. Ho replied that such
action on his part was unnecessary , as the
requisite action hud already been taken by
the Authnrltlcs-of Kings county and there
was nothing for htm to do.
Governor Flower added that no complaint
had been made to him by anybody concernIng -
Ing the tltrht. and that no charges hnd been
mndo In this connection against Sheriff
Courtney of Kings county.
Now Orlcntis Can Hiiro It.
ST. Ixt'i Jbct. S'J.-A New York'-jpeclal to
the Hpp'ubifc says : , The championship light
between .lames J. Corbott and Chnrlos
Mitchell will como off either at UonoyJsland
or N w Orleans or nowhere. Corbott will
noljlght In San Francisco , nor will ho con- ,
bent to leaving this country. Corbott feels
that hs champion it is Ills prerogative to
naino the battle ground. Ho has never
favored Now Oileans as the scene of the hat-
ticbut If the authorities shall finally prevent -
vent the llpht nt Coney Island ho will advo-
catu'Now Orlciins.
The National club of I-ondon has cabled to
Richard 1C. Fox , offering a purse for the
fight if it cannot be held nt Coney Island.
Corbott , of course , will not consider this
proposition.
Narrowed down , It appears the flgnt. If
there It going to bo a light at all , will bo aNew
Now Orleans.
Mltrhrll Not DUcourncuil.
Nnv YOIIK , Oct. l i. Charley Mitchell ,
the pngtlUt , arrived In this city tod.iy front
Pittsburg. When n reporter interrogated
him , ho said : " 1 shall visit the Linden race
track tomorrow , where I hope to meet Mr.
Newton nnd have some Uind ol an under
standing with him.1
"If the Coney Island club docs not offer the
purso. will the light bo declined off ! "
"N ( > . sir. What 1 know of the matter is
what I have read in thn newspapers. "
Iho Knglii-himin docs not seem discour
aged at tho'tnrn affairs have taken.

A cottage and barn in the roar of 112
South 'twenty-eighth street were destroyed
by lire about idjBU o'clock this morning. A
horse , wagon , " "harness nnd n number of
chickens belonging to Expressman Morrison
were burnqd in the barn.
The lire originated in the barn , and soon
reached the cottage east of it , and before

nearly consumed. The house U owned by
Mr. Bennlston , and was occupied by an old
counlo named Volkcr. Thu man IH an In

culty that he und his wife made their es
cape , and only a few things in the tiouso
were saved.
The excitement prostrated Mr. Volker
nnd it is feared that it may have a serious
effect on him. Kind neighbors took them in
and did all tlicv , could for the old people.
It is thouirht that the lire was of Incen
diary origin. The loss will bo about § 1,200.

that is covered by insurance.

KANSAS CITY. Ocu,2y.- , , , jCVilson.a ,
retired merchant and.fpr twenty-six years a
resident of Kansas City , lies at his homo in
this city , suffering from concussion of the
brain , and stands but slight chance of re
covery. His suffering is the result of In
juries received at his homo a few days since ,
nnd are believed to have been Inflicted by a
sandbag m the hands of , a would-bo bur
glar. The supposed real cause of tho'in-
juries had not been made Known ulitil to
day , nnd thus failed to attract public in
terest.
Tne circumstances stiarounding the case
are most mysterious , nnd unless Mr. Wilson
recovers his senses sutllcluntly to.givo an ac
count of the occurrence , the precise cause of
. his injuries will in all probability never bo
known. Early last Wednesday morning
Mr. Wilson was awakened by a noise in the
basement of his house and proceeded to
learn the cause. Four or live minutes later
Mrs. Wilson was startled by a sound sug
gesting the fall of a heavy body. Uuon an
Investigation Mr. Wilson was found lying on
the basement floor with his head in a pool of
blood. Ho was insensible and blood was
flowing freely from a gash under his loft
eye. Kver since then ho has boon uncon
scious , and his physician expresses little
hope of his ultimate recovery.
It was at flrstithought ho had fallen down
st.iirs , but this throry is now disapproved by
the positive assertion of these in the house
at the time that they hoard footsteps near
the basement window immediately after the
fall was hoard. ,
J. M. U. Wilson is perhaps bettor known
to old Kansas Cityans than any man con
nected with the public school system hero.
About twenty-six years ago ho was actively
engaged In educational matters iti'this'city. '
Later ho engaged in the real cjtuto.business
amassed a fortune , and five years ago re
tired from business.

The schema Is championed by Mr. Pow-

Knights of Labor , and llnds considerable
favor among laboring men not n fill idled with

with the leasers of every labor organization
In the country. Delegates will bo present
from these orders-next mouth und the whole
program will be discussed at length and an

iNiitANxrous , Oct. 23. A special to the
Sentinel from Washington , Ind. , says : At
nst the guilty murderers of the Wraltan
family nro In the tolls iof the law. Five of
the suspects arrested and taken to Joffcr-
sonvillo tire WCOKS J go were rightly sus
pected. but It was hot through them that
the heinous criminals wcro exposed.
I < ast Saturday the grand jury ordered the
arrest of James Stdno , the man who cntno to
the Wrnttan house early Tuesday morning
and first discovered the terrible tragedy.
Ills arrest was caused through tils own wife ,
who appeared before the grand Jury and tes
tified that Stone arose In the nleht and com
plained of n violent toothache , and that ho
was going to a dent 1st ! to huvo It. extracted ;
that ho did not roturnmntil n Into hour , and
then , being covered with blood , ho asked
for n chnngo of clothing ; that Stone main
tained that the blood on his clothes was
caused by the bleeding of his tooth' . On In
quiry it was found that no doctor or dentist
had extracted n tooth from Stono. This
was doomed strong ovldonco , especially
when coming from the man's wife.
As soon as Stona was brought to town the
grand jury wont to work to obtain n con
fession from htm. At first ho strenuously
denied everything , but being assured that
clemency would bo guaranteed to him If ho
made n confession , ho nt midnight yielded
to thotr overtures. He told his story about
as follows :
Knowing that Mrs. Wr.it tan kept n great
deal of money about the house , CJ null son
Cosby , n notorious character tn this county.
planned n robbery. A gang of seven per
sons that formed a sort of society for rob
beries and general holllshness , was notified
of his plan. Their na.nes nro Qradison
Cosby , Lon Williams , Martin Ynrber , of this
city ; William Kays of Pike county ; John
W. White , Olpp Clnrk'nnd .lames Stone.
The plan was that barber and Clark should
got Into the house and commit the robbery ,
while the others were to stand guard. At
tlio tlmo when the robbery was to bo com
mitted , Cosby and Stone had not arrived ,
Cosby being In the cltv Monday evening ,
and was so drunk that ho got past going ,
and did not reach the house nt all , but Stone
arrived after thd murders had been com
mitted , and because ho was late the other
conspirators wallowed him in the blood of
the victims , and In that condition permitted
him to go homo , and that was the nail that
fastened down the lid of their cofllns.
They could notllml a cent of money. As
Stone did not arrive until the six murders
were committed , lie does not know why
they killed the Wrnttan family.
All the criminals wcro arrested and taken
to Jofforsonvillo last night. Williams and
Kays wore already In .leiTersonvillo prison.
Brown , another suspect , who was taken to
JolTcrsonvillo , has no connection with the
tragedy and will bo released.
The excitement today is moro Intense than
over. Woo to the murddrors If a Davis

WHAT HE HAD TO SAY UPON THE SUBJECT
rnpul Influence nml rrinthood Condemned
by the Speaker I'libllo School Sfitom
nnil American liiRtltutlon * DUcunsed
Cnthollrlim HoTernljScored. .
Evangelist Lcyden of Boston addressed a ,
largo audience nt Exposition hall last nlirht ,
having for his subject the Itoinnn Catholic
church and , what ho called "its dangerous
inllucnca on American Institutions.11
The speaker opciicil his lecture with n
brief history of the establishment of the
public school system in this country , tracing
It up tO'tho ' tlmo "when the opposition of the
Church 6f Itomo was Ilrst made manifest , "
after which ho drifted Into a gdncrdl talk on
the subject of Homnnlsm.
After opening his leetiu-o with extensive
remarks on the public school system ho
spoke , in part , as follows : .
livnitBclUt l.cydon'K Idea.
"Has not the Catholic church had all the
advantages given to any other denomina
tion ! Catholics find fault With our public
school system and other Institutions they
are trying to undermine them and substitute
n system of education that will make Cath
olics and rum American Institutions.
"Wo have Been called cranks but It takes
a crank to turn things , and wo turned the
crank of truth on Boston. AH denomina
tions were represented. Wo wcro present ,
and exhibited indulgences which hail been
purchased from the church of Homo and
'
hero they aro. They claim that Indulgences
are not sold , but they nre if one has enough
money , to buy them.
"They say that Martin Luther was kicked
out of the Uoinnn Catholic Church lor doing
something vyrong. If everybody connected
with the church were kicked out , for doing
something wrong , there would bo few loft
on the Inside.
' yVe believe that the mother should have
the right tosay who shall teach her children ,
and the result has been that suffrage has
been granted to the women of Massachusetts
in school matters. qualifying , at least 12
licr cbnloftho Homan Catholic women , who
hoped to offset the Protestant vote , failed
utterly , being unable to read or write.
"What docs the Roman Catholic church
teach ? When' 1 was a"chTId I attended n
Catholic parochial school. We were taught
to give ten prayers to the Virgin Mary and
ono to God. On this rosary are ilfty-throo
prayers to the Virgin. Catholics may bo
seen every Suiiday'inorning going to mass iu
full forco. Why 'do they go ? .They uro
taught that if they don't'go to mass they'll
go to hell , und'thoy prefer mass after at-
.tcuding which many of the male portion
hasten to the nearest ramshop.
. \Vanti All the PrlcfltA Arrested.
"I hope to see the day when every Roman
Catholic priest lntho land may be arrested
for obtaining money under false pretenses ,
In granting absolution at a price.
"Lot mo read what the Church of Rome
has to say of the eucharist : 'Tho Catholic
believes that Christ is really present in the
broad and wino of thei communion ; the Pro
testant bcliovcs only in the presence of the
.plrit. '
"I challenge any Catholic hero present to
deny that he is not taught to belicvo that
thlsblt of consecrated bread I hold in my
hand is Christ , body , blood and soul. You
nro bowing down to an Idol made by n.an.
You nro eating your God. You Homan
Catholics , in this free , enlightened land ,
make your God out of. flour and water , bow
down 10 it and worship it , and then de
vour it , v ,
. 'Chinese and Hottentots nave equal rights
with all others Intlio , United States , but I
hold that not ono dollar of nubile money
should bo dovotcd to the dissemination of
Catholicism or any other religion through
Iho medium of the schools of tills land.
AlloKcd.J'our of the 1'opr.
' 'The pope dare not show himself in the
streets of Homo without a heavy guard
possibly for the reason that ho fears the
Italians might hug their dear holy father to
death.
"Out of 70,000,000 'Italians , according' to n
census taken" just after the unification of
Italy , 12 ,000,000 could not read or write.
That is how tlio pope educated Italy. The
snmo conditions obtain in Brazil and Mexico.
Why should the United States accept a sys
tem of education that has been proven such a
dls-nal failure In other countries ?
"When I loll the Church of Homo I left
b'ec-.uso I had my eyes opened. A Protestant
friend called mv attention to a pone-en
dorsed version of the scriptures in which it
was sot forth that a bishop should bo mar
ried. It was an oyc-cponor , as were several
other matters to which he called my atten
tion. "
American ScliooU Kuloelr.eiJ.
The speaker then told of his efforts to
break away from Catholicism , and of his
final emancipation , eulogizing the American
public school ns the great medium of educa-
tlo'n and the teacher of freedom from re
ligious superstition. Ho said that all the
blessings that Catholics enjoy In this coun
try lira due to Protestantism.
Jn.conclusion tno lecturer saiu : "iso man
should bo placed in ofllco in this land who
divides his ullcglanco between his country
and the popo. No man can bo true to his
wlfo and at the same time love another
woman. Neither , can a man be true tn pub
lic trust and.to . the pope at the saino time.
May'God help us to maintain the public
schools of this land. God bless them and
keep thoni up. "
Mr. Loyden then culled upon all loyal
Americans' to uphold American institutions ,
particularly the public schools , and to battle
against every effort of the Hainan Catholic
church to increase its power tn this country.
This afternoon ut II o'clock Mr. Lcyden
will deliver n lecture for "women only,1' ' and
this evening ho will give a lecture "for men
only" on the "secrets ot the confessional. "

Vnlunblo horses and cattle , estimated
to bowortli 310.000 , have boon killed In
tlio Ainbrnw bottoms of Illinois durttiK

Iiiff their death was cleared last week
when David Tucker of Bourbon town
ship , Douglas county , killed n monster
wild cat eight miles north of Oakland.
When tlio cat was llrst Been by Tucker
the description ho gave of It made It ap
pear so larijo that the narrator was set
down as n victim of paresis , and his
neighbors looked Bvmpathlzinjily upon
him. With a determination to wivo his
reputation ho made up his mlnil to secure
the cat at all hazards. Armed with a
shbtgun ho started out to find the ani
mal's lair , and was , utter a great deal of
labor , successful in locating it In a snug
hole In a olllf. As Tucker win carefully
picking his way along the rocks ho
found himself suddenly face to face
with the cat , which seemed as big as
a lion , na H crouched only ton foot
from the hunlor. Tucker throw hln gun
forward and llred , thu charge striking
the cat in the houldor. The maddened
animal sprung Into the air and landed on
top of Tucker , almost knocking him
down with the force of the blow. Then
ensued a hard struggle. Tucker Is a
wiry , muscular man , and ns the animal
was disabled by the charge of buckshot
ho was able to prevent It from tearing
him by choking It with ono hand and
holding Us injured paw fast with the
other. Round and round they struggled
until the wildcat's fury began to abate ,
when Tucker , by n violent effort , man
aged to throw Iho boast from him. and
snatching ujj his gun , fired the remain
ing charge into the animal's brain as
It started to rpnow tlio attack. Leaving
the animal In its death struggles Tucker
hastened homo" to umko an examination
of bis own injuries , which , strange tore-
late , wore , except three or four pretty
deon scratches and the loss of a suit of
