laughter.
On the right of the palace gateway the

In spite of the enormous crowds In Lon
don seals to view the procession tomorrow
are almost begging. Many of the city syn-
dlcaUn today are distributing tents gratis
among their disappointed shareholders. The
rapacity of the omnibus companies , which
yesterday trebled the rale of their fares , was
also a setback , and they In many cases to
day reduced prices to the regular rates.
Owing to the recent explosion of bombs In
Paris and the arrival In England of many
'orelgners known to bo connected with an
archy , the Scotland Yard authorities have
iicen very active. The whole route of the

itnlncd , especially the bridges and stands In

wars for gold on Ignorant and defenseless
savages , " and as "An Increase of the wealth
of Great llrltaln , but not for the mass of
working people , wlicso condition Is worse
than sixty years ago. " The leaflet quoted also
says : "Tho appalling mass of lunatics sent
to the asylums yearly have been driven mad
by the stress of the difficulties of life during
Victoria's glorious reign. "

WASHINGTON , Juno 21. ( Special Tele

ively , leaves but one proposition pending be
fore either legislative body In Washington ,
so for as relates to the Omaha Exposition.
The concurrent resolution Introduced by Sen
ator A'len ' some time ago and passed through
the senate , Is still pending In the house , nn-l
will. In all probability bo sidetracked on ac
count of the disposition of the State depart
ment being agalnrt any proclamation on the
part of the president of the United States
In behalf of any exposition that Is not na
tional In character. Chairman Dhigley's
speech on the Joint resolution was conelse ,
clear , and coming from the ways and means
committee , pledged the republican party to
Its support. There was not a single- dis
senting voice when the resolution was placed
on Us final pasnago. The resolution was
amended In three particulars. The Fccretnry
of the treasury Is given authority to desig
nate the number of employes and laborers
needed for the purposes of the exposition ,
who come In under the suspension of thu
foreign labor exclusion act , and also limltl..j ;
the time of the continuance of these cm-
plo > es In the United States to three month.- '
after the close of the exposition.
Acting Secretary Mclklejohn of the War
department today transmitted a letter to
Senator Altrn , which the latter Introduced
In the senate , relative to the Fnrt Omaha

In character , and dirt not Indicate the dis
position ot the War department toward the

and to that end every effort will be made
before adjournment of the present session
of congress.
Senator Allen also Introdtico-I the

BISHOP BONACUM WINS All
Martinelli Decides Against the Priests at
Every Point ,
SENTENCE ON FATHER FITZGERALD'
Prlt'M tit Anliiirii Ciiinlfiiiiii'il to Do
I'oiiiiiinei * , l'n > n 1'lnc nml Cos IK
nml Hi * TrntiNfL'rreil
AUUURN , Neb. , June 21. ( Special Tele
gram. ) Father Fitzgerald today received the
decision of MonEcigncur Martinelli , and with
It a letter directing that the decision and
I'jntcnco be not given to the press for pub
lication. It Is leirned tnat In this decision
and sentence , which Is quite long and writ
ten In Latin , Mcnsulgneur Martinelli has un
done all that Father linnrt did In the uietro-
polltati iiirlae at Dubuque , ud has In no way
cansuied the bishop for the expulsion and sus
pension and excommunication pronounced
over a year ago by the bishop agalni't the
pi lest. The charges are taken up Mugly.
The document consists of forty-eight pages
of typewiltti'ii matter. The whole sentence
conclude. ' wl'h the following :
1. Hev. Denis Fitzgerald shall spend
twenty diiya In spiritual exercises in n mon
astery , to be designated by us.
- . He fch.ill perform the net of submis
sion nnd obedience toward the ordinary of
Hie Llnco'.n illoeeie.
3. Hi > shall be transferred from the quasi
parish of St. Joseph of Auburn to another
morally equal.
4. lit- shall pay the expenses of $ C'J In
curred by the trial at Lltuoln and the ex
penses of S1TO Ineurred at the metropolitan
eurlao at Dubuque shall oe iqu.illy di

Fitzgerald.
5. llu shall pay nt lenst the bishop's duet *
Tor the year 1N04 nul other due * of the
mission shall be paid by tin1 parish < > C St.
Joseph fcir the erection of the Hshop's
hoiibo , etc.
RESENTS THE SENTENCE.
Father Fitzgerald considers this sentence
unprecedented In civil or ecclesiastical Juris
prudence , and even considers the money part
of it brutal , inasmuch as the apostolic del
egate Is aware of the fact that his revenue
has been cut off during the past two yen in
and were It not for the charity of a few
friends his condition would b ? worse than
deplorable. Ho ' 'as suld to a friend that
the money part of the sentence Is impossi
ble , and that no one can be bound by the
impossible , and therefore It falls to the
ground , llu monastery part of the sentence
was evidently Inspired and dictated by
Ulshop Ilonacum In his desire to humiliate
and degrade him , as only priests of ques
tionable character are sent to monasteries
to perform spiritual exercises. An appeal
will at once be taken by the priest to the
propaganda at Rome.
SHOUT II1STOUY OF TUB TUOU1II.I3.
UCMV In Hitr Dim-cue of Lincoln Hint
linn IleiMini > Ci-l.-lpruu-il.
Tfio origin of the trouble leading up to
this case Is somewhat obscure. It sprang
from various acts' of the bishop of Lincoln
toward his priests. While only Fathers
Fitzgerald and Murphy are Involved in the
present-instance , the case Is thy culmination
of a scries of diocesan trials , civil trials , ap-
pi nls and ecclesiastical recrimination which
forms the history of the diocese for the
past seven years. Complaints of Injustice on
the part of Ulshop Lonacum began among
the priests soon after the bishop took ghargo
of the diocese in 1SSG , but several yearn
passed before they crystallized Into open re
volt. In 1S92 trouble began over the
management of the convent at Hastings.
Complaint had been made to the apostolic
delegate- concerning the blshop'n conduct to
ward the sisters lu charge. The bishop of
Omaha was Instructed to Inquire Into the
matter. Ho delegated , the work to the resi
dent pastor at Hastings. All concerned In
this inquiry Incurred the dLsfavor of the
bishop of Lincoln , who meted out punish
ment when opportunity offered. The pas
tor who undertook the Inquiry under pro
test was within two years after driven out
of the diocese.
Early In 1893 the priests who claimed to
have been treated unjustly formulated
charges against the bishop and forwarded
them to Archbishop Satolll at Washington.
A copy of the charges was sent from Wash
ington to niBhop Ilonacum In March of that
year , and ho was notified to moke answer.
At this period and for some time- preceding
Fsther Fitzgerald was a member of the
bit-hop's household at Lincoln. Relng a
relative of the late Jchn Fitzgerald , hanker
and contractor , he was expected to accom
plish much good In n financial way. The
duties tmpored ou him , however , wore- not
to Ms taste. Ho did not come up to the
hopes of the bishop as a solicitor and was
shifted out on mission duty.
ST. UKRNARD'S UNION.
The general expectation of a trial of
nishop nonncum , entertained by the priests
In the spring of 1883 , convinced them that
organization was necessary. St. Bernard's
Union was formed. Sixteen of the forty-
three prlasls In the diocese became active
members and an equal number gave It their
support on the quiet. Father Fitzgerald
was chosen secretary , and In that capacity
conducted Us voluminous correspondence
with marked ability.
In June , 1S'J3 , Archbishop Satolll , delegate-
apostolle , Journeyed to Omaha to hear the
evidence In support of the charges preferred
by the priests against Uishop Ilonacum. No
hearing was had , however. The bishop did
not appear until the third dny , but ho suc
ceeded In smoothing over matters by prom
ising the delegate to "forgive and forget. "
The gravity of the case and the mass of
documentary testimony presented by thu
priests mailo thn delegate averse to action.
My remanding the case to the metropolitan
of the province and placing the bishop on
his good behavior ho expected the delay
would rlcht matters.
The truce was of short duration. Fathers
Loughran and Qulnn , two of the complain
ing priests , were dismissed from their mis
sions , and proceedings were begun to oust
Father 51. J. Corbett of I'almyra , who wus
conspicuous In pressing the charges against
the bishop. Appeal after appeal went to
Satolll , the power of the civil courts was
Invoked and the struggle waxed warm all
along the Hue. Meanwhile a new province
waa carved out of the province of St. Louis
and Itlstmp Hcnnessy was made archbishop
of the metropolitan bee. Six months were
consumed In getting emu action from the
new metropolitan. Finally , under Instruc
tions from his superiors , Archbishop Hen-
nessy came to Omaha In April , 1S94 , osten
sibly to try the bishop on the charges pre
ferred.
CHARGES AGAINST THE IIISHOP.
The Indictment of the priests against
Bishop Ilonacum contained fifteen charges ,
with 115 specifications. The charges were :
"Maladministration , tyranny , oppression , In
subordination , Inciting strife , blander and
libel , arbitrary exercise and abuse of power ,
violation of diococan statutes , misappropria
tion , falsehood , speculation , undue Influence ,
unjust favoritism , scandal , gambling and In-
cltatlon to perjury. "
The complaining priests and their wit
nesses were In attendance at the appointed
time , but Blihop Ilonacum was not. Arch
bishop Henneniy refused to grant a formal
trial on the charge * . Ho would hear the
personal grievance of each priest and no
more. To thla the complainant * objected In
vain , demanding a trial or nothing. They
withdrew and once more appealed to Del
egate Satolll. Archbishop Hcnncfitiy con
cluded to make an investigation personally
and went to Lincoln , Hartlnga and one or
two other towns In the dlocceo , The re
sult of this Investigation was embodied In
a reim to Delegate Satolll , which was In
effect that a majority ot tbo better
of Catholics In the diocese reprobated the
charges against thebishop. .
IN THE CIVIL COURTS.
From this time on the troubles In the dlo-
eeso awsumed a new anpecl. The position
of the warring factions w s reversed.
Illshop Ilonacum became the- aggressor and
the priests were forced frodHHxn3ltlon | of

FltZRtrald and Murim VV the courts of
Nt-ninna and Johnson counties. In these
cases the priests contended that ao they
had taken appeals to the higher courts of
the church the bishop was estoppod from
proceeding until the appeals were deter
mined This view wrs sustained In both
cases. It wss this action on the part of the
civil courts that enabled the prleatn to per
severe. Possession ot their missions gave
them nine points of the law , and forced
the higher authorities of the church to hear
their grievances.
In August. 1S93. D'lshop Uoiiacum formally
expelled both priests from the diocese for
"defiance nnd disobedience to his ( my ) au
thority. " The expulsion WCH set aside by
Delegate Satolll. They were again tried by
a diocesan commission on September 25
of that year. Falling to appear they were
adjudged guilty of contumacy. Another
condemnation followe.it on October 2 , and an
order of exeommu'jilcal'lon lircughl the year
lo a close. From all theao proccedlugs ap
peals were taken to the apostolic delegate.
Satolll refused to grant the appeal , stating
In a Iftter dated December 3 , 1S05. "Since
Revs. Murphy and Fitzgerald have been con
demned In contumacy the right of appeal
IIBA been forfeited by them , nnd they are
obllgivl to obey implicitly the sentence pro
nounced ngalnst them. "
APPEAL TO ROME.
The priests then tsought redress at Rome.
An appeal was forwarded to the Congrega
tion of th ? Propaganda. On January lit ) . 1S96 ,
the apostolic delegate was notified thai the
appeal had been granted and that the case
should bo heard by the metropolitan cui'ia.
Rev. Peter A. Uaart of the dloceso of De
troit was appointed Judge-delegate. The
court wcs held at Dubuque , October 2S , 29
and 30 , 1SHC. Judgment was rendered on
December 1 , finding the priests not guilty of
the charges prefencd by the bishop , ordering
the removal of the rival priests at South
Auburn and Tecumsch and condemning the
bishop to pay to the prleMs damages amount
ing to $1,200. The decision ot the metropol
itan curia severely airaignod BIslnp Hunn-
cum for presenting muti'.ated records to the
court , practicing deceit en Delegate Satolli
and for "Inflicting punishment on the de
fendants without due process of law. " "Un
derlying all these proceedings , " declared Hie
court , "was some other motive than a souse
of Justice. "
As soon ai the decision of the metropolitan
curia was niado known , Illshop Honacum , In
a public let'.cr , denounced the decision and
attacked the character of the judge-delegate.
An appeal was taken by the bishop and
granted by Delegate Martinelli.

The fate ot Joseph S. Hartley , the ex-stato
treasurer charged with the embezzlement of
201.SS4.05 of the money ot thu state ot Ne
braska , now rests with the Jury ot twelve
men , who have eat In the Jury box slnco
June 'J listening to the evidence Introduced
by the prosecution and the defendant. The
case wca given to the Jury at S:30 : o'clock
last evening and the members retired for
deliberation.
This trial has attracted the most wide
spread attet'tlon ' and the reports of the pro
ceedings from day to day liavo been canerly
scanned. Some of the olde.st attorneyu at
the Douglas county bar have expressed the
opinion that no case In this county has ever
been ns fiercely fought ns this one. No
loophole furnished by the Intricacies ot crim
inal law has been left untried and nuthorltln
without number have been cited tn support
of the many theories of the defense. Each
point raised In the intertst of the defendant
has been promptly met by the attorneys for
the state. These candle's of attorneys liavo
attracted the members of the legal profession
from Omaha and surrounding towns.
The evidence In the case wna concluded this
morning , the state liitro'luelng a small
amount of evidence In rounding out Its re
buttal , and the defense renting without Intro
ducing any evidence tn surrebuttal.
When court opened this morning the state
called Assistant Cashier L'lch of the Omaha
National for the purpose of Identifying sev
eral entries in Hartley's personal account ns
appearing on the ledgers of the bank. The
witness was asked to
state who the payees
of several checks were which appeared on
the ledger , the entries showing that the
persons named had been paid sums ranging
from ROOO to $ ; ; ,000 each. Mr. Balch was
unable to tell who wcro meant by the names
of Pope , Thomas , Moore and Brctton , trustee.
Ho was excused without ercss-examlnatlon !
LAST OF THE TESTIMONY.
The state called Treasurer Meeen-o to nek
him a question which had been overlooked
Saturday. He was aslced If Hartley had
turned over to him , at the settlement be
tween them , more money In the general fund
than the statement of the auditor , on which
the settlement was based , showed to be lu
this fund ?
This question was for the purpose of ro-
buttlng the claim of the defense that Hartley
had made the state general fund a gift of
$50,000 from his own private funds. The
testimony of the several witnesses produced
by the state liad shown that the records In
the treasurer's oflice and In the auditor's office -
fico contained no record showing that the
$50.000 which the defence alleged had been
transferred from Hanky's personal account
to the general fund , had ever been credited
to that fund. The state was not allowed to
ask the treasurer how mucli money had been
turned over to him by Hartley for the gen
eral fund and the permanent school fund ,
the defense being afraid to let the witness
tell the Jury that th amount turned over to
him for these two funds showed a shortage
In the treasury of over $500,000.
This evidence completed the caseon Die
part of the state , It being announced that
the state would rest.
After a brief consultation , the attorneys
for Hartley announced that the defense would
not Introduce any further evidence , but would
rial Its cisc.
After a brief pause the arguments were
commenced , the court announcing that each
side would be limited to three hours.
County Attorney IlaMilgo inada the openIng -
Ing argument. He will be followed by T. J.
Mahoney and C. A. Whedon for the de
fense , in the order nami-d. The clewing argu
ment will bo made by Attorney General
Smyth , With the Instruction by Jutlgo
Haker , the case will hi- given into tlio hands
of the Jury , and the fate tf th defendant will
rest In tha hands of the twelve men who liavo
been In the jury box during the past two
weeks.
BETRAYAL OF A TRUST.
In beginning lliu argument County Attor
ney Baldrlge spoke at length on the duty of
Jurors , and then nald : "By almost 100,000
voteo the defendant wac called to occupy one
of the highest olllres In the g-Ift of the
people of this state Hie trusted guardian of
Its financial Inte.re.'lH. Th-y gave him their
vote and In so doing. ihMr confidence and
their trust. They put their moneys In his
hands , and they madn him the depository of
millions of their revenues. What honesty
these relations called for , what Integrity they
Invoked. The evidence of the ease Is tbo
story of the betrayal of that trust. The
more It Is unravelled by him In his alleged
defense tlio morn flagrant the betrayal ap
pears. Ho reached his hand into tbo publlo
pocket , he drew out money enforced as a
tribute to the tate from nil Its people. Us
source unquestioned , for as to this ho was
Indifferent , taking shamelccitly , without the
shadow of excuse or the slightest pretense of
common honesty. "
Mr. Baldrlgo then argued that the law
passed by the legislature did not conUmplato
the negotiation of the warrant of JISO.101.75
negotiated by the Omaha National bank with
tlio Chemical National bank of Now York ,
and that Hartley had the warrant drawn to
himself Individually for tlu > purpose of ne
gotiation. Ho ahi that thu scheme to de
fraud the state was hatching In his brain
when Hartley directed Balch nf the Omaha
National bank to enter up the proceeds of
the warrant In his personal account.
Ho argued that the evidence showed be
yond any thadow of a doubt that not a dollar
lar of the proceeds derived from the tale of
the warrant ever mtido Its way back again
Into the treasury of the state. Ho vehe
mently denounced the defense as a chain.
Mr. Baldrlgo argued that the defense by
Its own evidence showed that the proceed *
of the warrant were appllul by the defendant
to his own use , and that thu school boncM
which Hartley claimed ho purchased for the
Btato with JIG.000 ) of the mone ) were pur-
chateil with tlio money of the ntute. Ho
rfferro to the fact that th books of the treas
urer1 ! ) ofilco and llm reports , of thu ttlulo
treasurer to the governor so showod. Ho re
ferred to the report which Qavrmor Holcomb
testified that Hartley made to him as In It
self absolutely dUpruving every pretenne of
( ho defense. Ho referred at eomu length
to Hit UMIhnony of Deputy State Treasurer
Harltett and tn the expert accountant * , and
arguel ( hat If thu dcfen f had proven any
