Father Stanislaus Kmen of Cleveland , 0. . conducted services at St. Paul's Catholic church at Shcclcy station yesterday fore noon , -In Bplto of official determination to prevent It. The nature of the proceedings before Judge Scott Saturday , when IIlsliop Scnnncll was called In to answer for con tempt of court , caused many to believe there would be trouble at the church yesterday morning , but there was none. The services wore conducted under police protection , butte to an ordinary observer the worshipers were Just ns devout and the services were just ns Impressive BH they would have been had there been no Internal strife among the church members. It wns not necessary to break down the doors of the sacred edifice , for tt duplicate key was found and the doors opened without violence. Probably 100 mem bers gathered to worship , while nearly as many stood outside the fence and quietly watched the proceedings. The presence of two mounted policemen had a quieting effect upon two or three turbulent spirits who mle'it ' otherwise have attempted to frighten away the worshipers. IlEVIKW OK TIIIJ TROUBLE. The troubles of St. Paul's Polish Catholic church are of about three years' standing. Three years ago Father Jaklmowlcz took charge of the parish. Ills Hock embraced some 400 members , all of the Polish nation ality. The church members arc devout , hard working and liberal In their contributions to the support of their religion Some Instances - stances are given in which men with targe families contributed J5 per month out of a salary of (50 per month. Father Jaklmowlcz was a hale fcllcw well met. Under his direction the present church building was erected. The parishioners con tributed liberally to the building of the church ; so liberally. In fact , that In the past three years they gave something like $21,000. The building is a one-story frame structure that could bo built anywhere for M,000 , , while the lots upon which the build ing stands required an additional expendi ture cf $1,000. ' During all the three years the parishioners who have contributed the funds were kept In Ignoiance as to the disposition of the money. Under Catholic dispensation a priest Is the solo financial agent of his parish and he Is responsible alone to his blshcp. The parishioners finally went to the bishop and stated their fears They felt that they hail goad riasons for believing that their money ha.d not been judiciously expended. The bishop's reply did not satisfy them. COVERED WITH MOHTQAGKS. At the beginning of the present year Father Jaklmowlcz gave notice that he would sever his connections with the parish on January IB , He did BO , and after he had removed to Mount Cariuel. Pa. , It was discovered that not only had all the $21,000 been expended , hut that a mortgage for $6,000 upon the church had been given to John Hush An Investigation disci sed the fact thnt the mortgagB had been given by Father Juklmo- wicz and the two trustees , Thomas Trawlckl and Nicholas Cherek. The canonical law prohibits the giving of a mortgage without the concent ot the bishop and also stipulates that the mortgage must be signed by the bishop and thevicar general as well as by the priest and the trustees. The fact that the mortgage ! to John Ilush had been Riven In n manner prohibited by the canonical law raised a doubt In the minds cf the Sheeley parishioners ns to its validity. The bishop finally took a hand In the discussion and as his final ultimatum ordered the c ngregatlon at Sheeley to as sume the indebtedness and guarantee the payment of the mortgage. The parishioners who had already con tributed J21.00Q for the or ct on oC n $4,000 church felt the Injustice of the bishop's man date. They pointed out the fact that they were poi r ; that many of them had bc ° n out of cmplojmcnt for more than a year , nnd that they could not pay off the mortgage for years. They also urged that the money they had already contributed had been squandered nml that 11 was unfair to compel them to pay lor their church twice. Their protests were unavailing , nnd they were locked out ot their church. The nvrage Sheeley church member of the Catholic persuasion will not be deprived of the consolation of religion If he can help It , nnd so alter the bishop hnd closed their church door In their faces the members snt to Cleveland , 0. , for Father Kmen. Ac cording to the statements made to The lion reporter at She-eley yebterday. Father Kmen had been excommunicated and Is still under the ban of his superiors. It is for this reason that ninny remained away from services yesterday. A part of the congregation re mained Ibynl to the bishop , but the larger part entered the church and listened to the service. HIS COUSIN'S COTTAGE. Across the street from tie [ church stands a neat little brick cottage which hnd been built two years ago by Father Jaklmowlcz for his cousin , a pretty young Bohemian girl named Olga Jaklmowlcz. Two years ago the fair Olga married Anton Czajor of Chicago , and the wedding Is yet referred to as thu most notable function In the history of Shee ley town. Everybody wns Invited , nnd cham- palgne flowed like water. The police were present , and good order was maintained ; hut the cost of the wedding feast , $150 , was laxcd up to the parish. The cottage built for Olga wns paid for , as pome declare , out of the funds contributed for the erection of the church building. The parlshoners pro posed to Father Jaklmowlcz that If he would deed the cottage to the church society they would not prosecute him for the alleged misappropriation ot the church funds. II : agreed , and It was not until after the deed had been formally wtecuted that the people ot Sheeley discovered thnt the cottage , which had originally cost M.SOO , was encumbered by n mortgage for $1,400. The congregation Insists that the trustees and higher authori ties shall render an accounting , and this mat ter U now pending in tlie courts. What do you taKe medicine for ?

When seen by a re porter for The Dee Mr. Kldd talked freely upon tlie labor question , being evidently well prepared for his speech today before on Omaha audience. Some years ago Mr. Kldd worked nt his trade In this city. The labor clement In Chicago , he mays , Is glng bodily Into politics and he thinks that It an elec tion was held now In Chicago the laboring men would carry the day. The hope of the leaders , he says , Is to hold the men In line until election day and IIP does not think they will very easily forget what has happened In the past. Mr. Kldd thinks that not cnly the laboring people , but the whole people , nre thinking now as they never thought before nnd ho hops that the people may be successful In their fight for the control of the government.

DENIED FAIR RETURN FOR HIS TOIL Other Conditions tti 11U Ulandvniitncc Dr. Jllncliny on Method * of Chnrltnlile Wurk ClirlatlnnVorklll Collrgcn Uotcrltictl by Cullcgo Man. A Labor dty serm'n was preached-by Rev. Dr. Murray nt the Hnnscom Park Methodist church last evening. He said In part : When God said to Adam "In the sweat ot thy face shall thou eat bread till thotl return unto the ground" a universal law was enun ciated which has never been icpcaled. There Is an eternal fitness tf thlpgs In the decree : "Ho who will not work , neither shall he cat , " and aside from the nM ! cted ones It should be enforced. The social millennium will dawn when Its enforcement shall bo Insisted upon and scclcty shall decree the proportion of eating according to the measure of laboring. In God's justice there Is only this premise : "Thou shall eat the labor of thine hands. " In man's Injustice there has been , since the birth of the rnce , an endeavor on the part of some to eat the labor of the hands of others. In the days when the typical laborer was "Tho Village Blacksmith , " as represented In Longfellow's poem , his 1:1 was enviable. Not so In these ilajs. As students of social phenomena , as lovers ot our kind , ns Christians who believe n man lt > be worth moro than all else , we must sadly admit this lamentable fact. In these hard times of strikes and lockouts and shutd.wns , of enforced Idleness and hungry families , Labor day Is , It seems , almost a grim joke. I most firmly belle\e that to put the Jlame where It belongs In accounting for the ; > resent unfortunate condition of labor In .his country MB must admit that the trouble Is due pilmartty to the fact that tso many cat the bread of Idleness to permit nil our srmy of workers with equal Just ce to eat the labor of their hands. While Industrial : omlltlons have been completely revolution- zed In these days , there has been no corresponding spending change In the laws governing the relations of labor and capital and cf both to the state. The result Is that the simple re publican equality of the good old t.mes Is ? one , and Instead we find classes of society distinctly marked and widely separated , with such Inequality of conditions ns to prevent many laborers from justly eating the labor 3t their hands. No man can really earn ! ) j' his labor such an Income as Is p.ssessert t > y our rnulto-mllllonalrcs. Such by force of compulsion , with their extravagance cf ex penditure , eat the bread of Idleness at the expense ot the laboring classes. WCALTII UNEQUALLY SHARED. Seventy per cent of the wealth of this country Is In the hands of 200,000 people. One man receives 70 per cent ol the bread of labor , while. 299 are left to quarrel over the remaining 30 per cent. A laborer earn ing $1,000 a year would be compelled to work over a millennium In order to receive for his toll the average annual Income of one of the hundred richest Americans. Then , not the laborer or producer , but , tea a large degree , the gamblers ot Wall street and other speculative centers control the markets and regulate the value of the biead of labor. And these speculators have In a single > ear , through their manipulation cf the markets , cleared a score or more millions of dollars , made , alas ! through the sweat of brow and agony of soul of countless multi tudes. Compared to the Incomes of such money sharks , place the statement or a sew ing woman In Hoston , a type of her class , who said she was sometimes able , byworking far Into the night , to make 52 cents a day. The condition of the laboring man , too. Is today unenviable , because his right to work la often unjustly taken from him. Iti one of the large houses of our city recently a clerk was arbitrarily discharged , though the complaint of n customer aganlst him was absolutely pro\ed to be groundless , llut In the mind of the emplojor the whim ot the customer was worth more than honor able and just dealing by his employe Again and again during the recent strikes has the right of men who desired to w6rl been denied them by the representatives of labor organizations , and property has been destrojed and human life threatened and even taken In mad efforts to Intimidate men from working as they choose to do. DUTY OK TUG CHURCH. The marked estrangement ot the masses from the church Is a cause of a manifest lac.1 ; of such prudence , temperance and self- control as would make the laboring class an Influential factor In the settlement of great p-oblems affecting their interests. About a third of our population Is now of foreign extraction , massed in our cities , with little sympathy with American Ideas of law and order. The churches are too little Interested in the reaching of the masses In our cities today and must do more earnest work In that direc tion , for the settlement of the labor problem must begin In the regeneration of the charac ters of the people. The temperanca reform , too , as an economic and social need , aildo from Its moial bearings , will work vast bene fit to the labor Interest. All our cltl/ens must Interest themselves also in this supreme political and social problem of labor.Ve must legislate ngalnst the encroachments of corporate- greed , make the coming bil lionaire an Impossibility , make it Impossible for the gamblers of Wall street to fix the values of the bread of labor , effect co operation between capital and labor , deter mine by the flat of a free democracy that gold and silver shall be cheaper , wlillo man shall be held at his divine value. OMAHA'S CHAUITAIII.K.AVOISK. How It Should Ho Conducted During tlio Coming AInter. . The question of measures to bo adopted to provide relief for the destitute far.illks ot Omaha during the coming winter was dis cussed by Ucv. T. J. JIackay at All Saints' church yesterday morning. The sermon was In the nature ot a practical talk , based on the experience gathered by the speaker dur ing many-years of charitable work , both In Nebraska and the large cities of the east. Dr. Mackay took for his text the very ap propriate Injunction of the apostle Paul to the early church : "If any man will network work , neither let him cat. " This , according to bis observations , should be the principle upon which all charity should be based. Labor was the natural condition ot mankind , and for those who would not work starvation was the only remedy. The preacher said that there Mas some- thine wrong when an army of tramps swarms over the country , subsisting like the lilies of the Held , while thousands of hon est men who were- anxious to vork must cither beg or starve. However this might be , the people were now confronted by the problem ot how to provide Tor the deserving poor during the coming winter , which prom ised to be the hardest ever witnessed by the present generation. According to the records ot County Agent Burr1 , over BOO families were belnc helped by the county even now , and It might be expected that this number would be swelled to 3,000 or 4,000 during the cold weather. The giving of money or direct ch.irlly was condemned , except In cases of extreme ne cessity , or where the head of the family was crippled or Kick. The soup kitchens and other charitable Institutions which gave ab solutely without any return In the way of labor were hurtful. In that , ( .hey fostered a. spirit of dependence and robbed ttie , needy ot their pride until the work of charity de generated Into n wlltl scramble after a llv- Inc by ( hose wio' grew to accept It as a nialtof of course. Dr. Siackay deprecated the fact that un der , the present laws the city had no right trf push public Improvements other than by contract. If these laws could bo amended much of the difficulty of the situation could be done away with. In order to be effective , all charitable work should be accomplished under one central head. In this way much Illadvisedcharity could be prevented and care could be taken that every dollar was expended where It was deserved. The nu merous strikes of the present year were referred to as complicating the problem , as - nv ot the corporation ! from which the i Associated Charitieshas received substantial aid In the post -would very Justly refuse to assist In the support : oC men who might have worked If they had. wanted to. The speaker maintained that the labor organizations which had supported them while the Mrlkcs were In progrc 0would set a grand example If they continued id assist them during the winter , now that , trie strike had failed and the men were left without anything to keep them from starving through thp winter. Ho also favored the voting of JJO.OOO In bonds by the city and county at the coming election to nld In the workof relief , as It was very doubtful If prlvnlo generosity would suffice to meet the many demands that would bo made It. upon _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Y. .M. C.'AJ Ciillrco Work. The meeting at the Young Men's Christian association building nt 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon was devoted to a discussion of the work being done In the colleges of the country. Five collecea were represented and the reports were very gratllyliiK , showing a growing Interest In Young Men's Christian association work In all college circles and among college students. It Is inly a few years since , It was tlatect , that a Christian or a Young Men's Christian assoclntl n man was looked upon In colleges generally as n "Miss Nancy" or an effeminate sort ot chap and not a manly man , but ot Kile things have changed and In tome colleges the Young Men's Christian assrclatlon l < s Mrongor than any ether organization. McCasue ot 1'rlnceton spoke first , showing the , difference between coll'go Young Men's Christian association work and general Young Men's Christian association work.

The place was searched , but nothing was found of weapons or money , but both men said that they had read of the robbery In the morning papers. Clifton is a termer , and rents n place not far from where I'oley lives. He was with Tolcy a g.od deal of the t.ine on Saturday , and knew that he hod considerable money and Mould not start for home until late In the evening. In notifying the police of the robbery , Mr. Foley was very positive that Clifton was one of the men who robbed him , ns he knows him well and rpcognizcd his \o ce when the men commanded him to throw up his hands. And then Clifton Is snld to have Introduced Oakley to Folcy In the afternoon as his brother. Clifton Is eald to be the one who remarked that Foley had a good watch , even If It was In a silver case. Clifton Is aho aliened to keep a horse In town , and about S o'clock Saturday evening a man an swering Oihlty's description went to Collins' livery stable on Cumlng street nnd tried to hire a saddle horse. The man was a stranger to the men In charge of the barn and they would not let him have the animal. It Is now bolle\ed that Oakley got a horse at same other stable. The police ore confi dent that they have the right panics and this morning Foley will be brought to see It he can Identify them. It could not be learned last nlslit whether or not Foley recovered the pockctbook containing ? 93. which he throw away Into the bushes when the men held him up.
