London, Oct, 22. Tho dlisptito be
tween (Jrcat llritnln and Venezuela
which has reunited Id the Rending of
mi ultimatum to tho South Atncrlcnn
republic, is much commented upon by
the London press to-day.
Thc.Wcstmlustcr Gazette siys: "Af-U-r
n tremundotiH fuss, the Nlcuragiian
Incident turnou out to boo. ridiculous
ly small bucr affair, and in a short
tluio wo shall hare inndo the sumo dis
covery in tho Venezuela matter. Great
llrlUiin in not going to bu set by tho
ears by a pack of Venezuelans. Pres
Ident Cleveland knows wo havo no
intention of land-grabbing in South
America and Monroeism Iim no bettor
friend than tho old country. Our,
colonial minister, who miirncil un
Amcrlctiu, has given tokens' of
Ids friendship to thu I'nltcd States
mid its people and hu is not
lllccly to go out of his way to get tho
Marquis of Sulisbury to trend on
cousin Jonathan's corns. In due time
Secretary Olney will no doubt tell tho
Venezuelans that they cannot expect
tho United Mate to espouse u quarrel
when they deliberately presume, on
their limited resources, to attempt to
Iduff a great power. Wo tiro if lad that
the Now York Post, which ha done
Mich excellent service in promoting u
better understanding between tho
United States and (Ircat Ilrltain, will
unhesitatingly tell ita countrymen the
trnthin this "Venezuelan business and
also enlighten the 'blatherskite' poli
ticians and newspapers who are seek
ing to foment trouble between two
great branches of the Knglish speak
ing world."
The I'd
L'all Mall Gazette says: "The
Marquis or Jjaiisimry will not Ximl It
convenient to keep a lithographed sup
ply of a special form of ultimatum for
Mouth Amerienn republics. They rc
periotuully making trouble, and tho
mongrel .Spanish punctilio will not
yield to anything short of a threat
ened blockade. There is no doubt that
tho republic has grabbed :i big chunk
beyond tho Sehomberg line. Wc haro
no wish to bully Venezuela; but wc
my: 'Oil' hands,' all tho Miine."
The St. .lames Gazette says: 'JXhc
Tory ublo Now York Post fairly np
piles tho term 'blatherskite' to the
Tribune and similar publications and
politicians- whoso mouthing on tho
Venezuelan affair arc tin example of
their .habitual use of foaming tall
talk. The United States government,
however, is no 'blatherskite,' nud
does not listen to the opinions of ad--vibcru
of that order. If Vcnczula has
that impression, she will do well to
remember the outcorao between Kng
land and Nicaragua, lletwcen a gov
ernment's aets and what tho more
foolish kind of person professing to
represent American opinion says thorc
is,usually as much difference us be
I woe a sense and nonsense. Unless
President Cleveland is prepared to
overthrow tho traditions of his for
eign policy and begin a course of
.courting complications, wo may be
Mire lliat Venezuela will not rccolvo
more backing than Nicaragua."
It wan officially announced to-day
that, In consequence of Venezuela not
offering a apology or reparation for
the Ureas incident, the Marqn's of
Salisbury took atepi to inform her us
to what reparation Ureut ilrituiu re
quired, but, aa relatione between the
two countries had been broken off for
aosne years, the communication was
tot vmt tbrcugh the direct diplomatic
channel. As '.ho document had not
reached Us destination, it is not con
sidered desirable to give details of its
contents. It is couched In forcible
terms and point out that ( Jreat Britain
will aot permit Venezuelu to ovestep
tho boundaries marked by tho courses
of the rivers Cuvuue and Amacura.but
in willing that tho question of other
disputed territory should be .submitted

Hot Srnio, Ark., Oct, 22. Tho
fight between Corbett nml Fltzsim
mons was declared off by the Florida
Athletic club at a conferer.co this
afternoon between the managers and
the representatives of Corbett and
l'ltzslmtnon's. Tho club asked that
the contest be postponed until Novem
ber J I. Ilrady ncquinsced, but Julian
would not Then tho eon test wan de
clared off.
Ilrady then said that Corbett would
meet any man In tho world, Fitzsltn

to be named within twenty-four hours.
Vendlg nnuotinccd that ho would
match Matter against Corbett and find
sumo ono to take Ills place ngalnst
O'Donnell, the contest bstwceu Mahcr
and Corhiitt to be for fjAO.OOD.
Ilcforo the conference Julian snlil:
"I am willing to bring my man hero
nt the appointed time to meet Corbett,
but I am not ready yet to submit to
any compromise, and will not do so.
You can say for me that If I'ltzslm
mons comes hero he will come to meet
Corbett In a llnlsh light, find under no
other consideration. Wo don't pro
pose to go into tho ring under anv
articles of agreement by which the
referee may call tho light at a critical
moment when my man has thu best of
it. Whnt i want Is a contest upon
its merits, and lot the best man
win, and that we can get under
our original articles of ugrecmeut.
Fitis is ready to meet Corbett under
the original articles, but I am not pre
pared to sny that I will consent to any
other conditions. The reason I don't
bring Fit, here now is that we arc
under contract with tho people of
Corpus Christ! for him to finish his
training thcie, and, of course, would
Hot break that contract. You can say
for me, however, that we stand ready
to carry out our agreement, and that
I'ltz will bo hero or anywhere else
that may be decided upon "for this con
test." Julian declared that the stako
money was all right and that ho
wanted tho fight on tho orlginnl date
end under the original terms.
Uttu; Kock. Ark., Oct, 22. Not a
word camo . from Governor Clarice,
cither directly or indirectly, since his
conference witli Ilrigadicr General
Taylor S.ituiy. but the fact that the
light was dr.ircd off will probably
relieve him of any necessity of action
at present.
The governor's cloie friends, how
ever, declare that he will certainly act
decisively in ease there, should be re
newed effort to bring about a fight at
Hot .Springs, and that when he does
there will be an end of all probability
of any prize light being held in this
state.
Attorney General Klnsworthv re
turned from Hot .Springs to-day". He
has prepared a bill of exceptions in
the Corbett habeas corpus ease, mak
ing fifty-six typewritten pages, which
will be filed lu tho supreme court. All
the attorneys in tho ease arc here,
nud it is expected that the .supreme
court will hear tins case immediately.
Should tho writ of certiorari be
granted, the ease will then come be
fore tho supremo court to' pass on
Judge Lcatherman'H decision and the,
constitutionality of tho anti-prize
light law.
"Mr. Kinsworthy, in an interview,
said that ho believed that tho supreme
court woulu reverse the chancellor's
judgment, but refused to say why ho
entertained the belief. Ho also said
that ho believed the decision was not
correct, but again declined to give anv
reason for his assumption. He would
not disclose, if he know, whut action
Governor Clarke wonld take should the
uiprcuie court sustain the decision.
HUNTINGTON TALKS.
SXtlaniffnt of th I'atirio Railroad Jue-
tlon Not a I'olltlcal Matter.
Max Francisco, Oct. S2 C. P. Hunt
ington, when shown tho dispatch from
Washington to the effect that tho gov
ernment director of the Union Pacific
road had made a report to tho Secre
tary of tho Interior, recommending
that the attorney general shall, im
mediately uftcr thu maturity of any
portion of tho debt to the government
from either tho Union or Central Pa
cific, institute proceedings for the pro
tection and foreclosure of tho Hen of
the United States on the roads from
Omaha to Ogden, and from Ogden to
Sacramento, and thence to San Jose,
said'
"I doubt very much If the directors
havo made a report of the character
outlined in the dispatch. I am in
clined to think there is not anything
in the story the telegram eontulus.
As I at a moment's glance understand
thu dispatch' account of tho supposed
report, I do not sco that it means any
tbtnir. "Thu settlement of tho Union Paciflu
and Central Pacific government debts
is a business question. It ii not n
political matter by any means. Thu
government must' uud will no doubt
mulce up its mind us to what Is tho
best thing for it to do in the premises.
The railroad companies must alio de
cide what t hoy should best do. Of
course, if tho government through
its proper authorities makes up its
mind that it will talto possession of
the two roads, and assume their other
indebtedness, well uud good. No one
win Ul prevent It from so doing, and I
for ono would not prevent it,
"I'.y this statement I mean that un
less some settlement of the dubt is ur
ranyoil through un extension of time
of payment, tho Central Pacific will;
not bo ublo to pay tho debt when it
mature. At tlie maturity of tho debt,
and u failure to make payment, tho
government can Mop in uud take the
road with its remaining Indebtedness.
It will, of rurw, havo to provide for
the latter."

Washington, Oct 23. Ill his tenth

to employes In which lockouts and
atrlkes occurred during the 13? years
ending June 30, 1891, amounted to
910i).-i3,383, und to employers, to 30,

thrown out of employment by reason
of strikes, 3,774,tiW, making an aver
age loss to the employer of each es

fnr ascertainable, to !?13,i;is.70l. or a
little orer seven per cent of the total

Ono of the most important tables
given is that relating to the cause of
strikes. This statement shows that
more than a fourth of them wor.;
caused by u refusal to accede to a de

SHERMAN'S BOOK.

Stricture on (Inrlldil nru .luntllli'iU
Cixci.v.vati, Ohio., Oct. 33 The Kn
quirer says editorially: "Mr. Sherman
speaks in high termsof the personality
and eloquence of Garfield, but says
he was a man lacking In will power,
and changed his opinions easily. This
is a faithful picture, expressed in termn
of reserve. Mr. Sherman might have
gone further and only reflected the
views of contemporaneous Itcpub
llcan politicians who had associa
tion with the martyr president,
and said that while Garfield was a
good stumper and qualified to act in u
legislative body under direction aud
restraint, hu was unfit fnr leadership.
The statement in this new chapter in
political history that Garfiuld, in
making up his cabinet, was guided by
James G. lllainu in his rcsoive not to
retain Sherman as secretary of tho
treasury is another significant re
minder. It was the opinion of many
experienced und thoughtful men thut
Ulainc would run the Garfield admin
istration. The ussassio'n bullet cut
off a strong administration in all
probability. When so distinguished a
htatesman as John Sherman tukes
these matters up it is fairly
within tho. province of current jour
nalism to aay that had Garfield sur
vived, his position as president of the
United States would havo been almost
pitiable unless his friends hud risen
and brought an Irresistible pressure to
bear to oust Illaino from thu eablnut.
Garfield wasalunys taken care of by
his friends in politics. He was looked
upon as vuluable factor in pa-ty
work, whose intellect und eloquence
should uot be ullowcd to go to wustc,
but he was in scarcely any sense :i
lender."

Jtot outlet Anone Hi lailrrs.
Toitovro, Oct. 18. As the result of
his recent visit to Ireland, Archbishop
Walsh of the Uomau Catholic church
last night made public his propositions
for harmauy in Ireland u follows:
"Let a great national contention bo
held in Dublin, composed of chosen
representatives of the clergy und
people of Ireland, nnd of an advisory
representation cf the Irish racuabro.ul.
In that convention let Ireland sp?ak out
her mind; let not her voice Ik like
a broken musical instrument, emitting
discordant notes anil jarring sounds,
but let It, on the contrary, be clear,
loud aud emphatic, inilsthig ou.unlty
and condemning faction. Let her
point out nnd uphold her parliamen
tary representatives whoo methods
and conduct she approves, and lot her
mark out and condemn those whose
intolerance of control, personal jeal
ousies end nnlnioiitlea hare done so
much to break thu unity and waste tho
strength of the Natiomil party. Dis
sensions and fends havo lu the past
been the ruin nnd curse of Ireland.
Let her stamp them out aud east them
from her as things more noxious than
tin: serpents St. Patrick b.iulshcd from
her shores Jn that convention let the
volco of Ireland's sons abroad be
heard and their advice consid
ered. They live under free in
stitutions and are accustomed to
the workings of deliberative assem
blies aud representative govern
ments, and hence the advice and ex
perience of their chosen delegates,
in the present condition of Irish
affairs, woald Iks of the utmost value
aud 'importance. A great national
convention, such as I venture to sug
gest, ftpcakiu; with authority of tho
nation and voicing its tlcd and tin
alteraMe purpose to labor for and to
win .the right of pelf-government,
would give new hope and heart and
energy to Irishmen at home and
ubroad, and it would be ublo to restore
unity a mongAt the ranks of the lrl-.li
Nationalist representatives, to make
Of them onci- more a compact body
nud irresistabl. powe.' in thu luipcrkil
parliament. When Ireland speaks to
Kuglishmcti through such a body her
just demands cannot b long refused
her."
ivdward Wake, member of .parlia
ment for ; Lougford, Ireland, heartily
concurs in tho propositions, and urges
their acceptance by all the factious lu
Ireland.

THE POPE ON CONGRESSES
Trxt of tho J .filer of the Pontiff Concern
Ins Mltod ficticious Meetings.
M.WAt'KKK, Wis,, Oct. 18 Arch
VNIiop Katzer has received a copy of
tho letter of Popo Leo, sent to Mon
slgnor Satolli, bearing on religious
congresses. It is typewritten, In
Latin, and addressed to Monslgnor
balolll. Following is a translation:
Venerable llrothcr: Health and
npostoliu benediction. We have
learned that in tho United States
of America conventions are some
times held in which people assem
ble promiscuously, Catholics as well
as- those of other denominations, to
treat upon religion as well as upon cor
rect morals. In this wo recognize tho
desire for religious things by which
tills people is animated moro zealously
from day to day. Hut although theso
promiscous conventions huve unto thla
day been tolerated with prudent
silence, it would nevertheless seem
more advisable that tho Catholics
should hold their e invention!! separ
ately and that, lest the utility of these
conventions should result simply to
their own benefit, they might bo called
with the understanding that the ad
mittance should be open to all, in
cluding thoie who are outsido of tho
church.
"WlilM wc consider it incumbont
upon our npostollc oliicc, venerable
brother, to bring this to your knowl
edge, wc arc also pleased by our rec
ommendation to promote the practlco
of the Paulist fathers, who prudently
think to speak publicly to our dissent
ing brethren, In order to explain Cuth
olic dogmas aud answer the objections
ngalnst them. If every bMiop in his
own diocese will promote this practice
und a frequent attendance of theso
sermons, it will be very pleasing and
acceptable to u. for we are confident
that uot a .small benefit for tho wolfaro
of souls will iirie therefrom.
"Wishing you In the meantime, ven
erable brother, the gifts of divine
providence, wo impart to you with
the most loving spirit tho apostolic
benediction, a proof of our special
love.

HIS GRANT NOT HOPELESS
Wutler'a Conrenlon In 3!jila(-ii-ar to tlo
I.oohml After.
Wasiiixrto.v, Oct. lb. Counselor
Kennedy of the Waller e.i.o Is of tho
opinion that the turn which tho courso
of military affairs has taken In Mada
gascar in favor of the French will
favorably affect, the financial Interests
of thu ex-consul m that island. Ho
holds that tho ownership of the land
conceded to Mr. Waller by the Horn
government is a question entirely
separate from that of his guilt or
innocence of tlie eliargo of uidiug
and abetting the Hovun in tlielr war
with the French, ho bases this
opinion upon tho fact that, the grant
was made previous to tho French con
quest, and says that while France, at
the time, questioned tho right ot tho
Hovas to make tho concession, tlie
government of tho United States had
not conceded France's right to luter
fere in the management of the internal
affairs of Madagascar. When France
assumes an undisputed protectorate in
the Island, as It is presumed sho will,
in view of the recent success of her
arms in that quarter, it will find that
various grants have been madu to citi
zens of other countries, uot only of
Kngland and Germany, and it is sup
posed that tho Waller grant will bo
