" CIrY AND DISTRICT. THE LovaLTy OF CATHOLICS, Father Chapelle Replies to Speakers of the Evangetical Alliance. MR DEVICES THE RELATIONS OF THR CHURCH AXD TUR CIVIL. POWER AS UNDERSTOOD BY CATAOLICS— MOTALTY TAUGHT BY THE CHURCU—THR QUESTION ov BpccaTION. Rev. Father Chapelle, pastor of St. Matthew's ebarch, ta bis sermon yesterday replied to the qeiticisms upon the Catholfe Church made by apeakers in the evangelical conference just closed tmthis city. He took for his text: “In the midst of You standeth One whom yeknow not.” He said: “among men there standeth a society venerable $F Ks antiquity and wonderful for its far-reaching tmftuence, since its history is iseparabie trom that of mankind for the last 2,000 years. Its alm estabilsh on earth the spiritual kingdom of Gurist Ras ever deen loudly proclaimed; tts doctrines have been preached from the housetops Wherever men have dwelt or written in books ac- cosstbie to all; ft has lived in the open ligh’ of day, Raving nothing to conceal either from th scrutiny of Its friends or the Jealous. suspl Ms enemies And yet there are many 1a this en- Mghteved generation, as there have been in the eet, who. though well meaning in many respects nd Intelligent, do not at all know that One who = mraiy stands in the mice of them.” It is Bob my purpose to assign reasons tor ah hendrane = fag, oF to discuss Ip a controversial spirit, the goss Diunders into which t has betrayed jnet members Of an association which pro- to direct Christian tofluences toward the eioration of family and social life in our This Week at the meetings of that ‘Wat the Catholic Chureh in this country aliegiance to a foreign power which claims tae” absoluce “right to "control all. con- sciences and all people, and fs thus a menace to the republic, Another Doldiy stated that the Catholle Church tothe best efforts and tendencies of modern civilization.’ Now, as aa honorable man @apnot afford Yo pass by unnotic-d sinister tmpu- {ations coming from high quarters concerning bis, riotism® or his honesty, in like manner, 1, a tholic priest, standing here ta my e in this Capital city of the United States, and within a few ‘of the Presidential Mansion, deem it. my ounden duty to give my testimony, and earnestly Yo proclaim that’ Cataolies as such are from Unelt as loyal citizens as the republic holds within tte borders, and that tne Catholic Church is the Uuest and most powerful friend of what ts best in ebVilization.” THE CHURCH AND THE CIVIL POWER. ‘He spoke of the nature of the church organized by @od as His society, and also of the necessity of man’s combining with maa for bis pbysical welfare, andy continuing, said: “It is incumbent, then, on the eburen, through her external organism, to teaci. the truth, to watch over tne integrity of ‘faith and morals, fo offer worship to God, to lead cuosen souls t0 the practice of evangelical perfection, to uate abd educate her ciergy.. This she must order that the Kingdom of the Heavenly Father may be estabits! wadt His will may be done on earth as it is in ven. On the other hand, the civil power, whose end 1s to procure puma hhas also God for its author, for there Is nO authority but from God, whether the overument be a mouarcny, an oligarchy, a Setsocracy, oF a combiuation of these three iorms, Leo XII, in @ late encyclical letter, distinctly Weaches that any one of these systems may be legitimate, according to times and places, the interests of the people being always we inaln ‘object to be attained. The church, which has ever taught the laws of justice, mercy, and charity, Mads nothing in a republic but what ts congenial to herown mode of government, and to her mission to preech the Gospel to every creature. “These two powers are entirely distinct from each other since they have aifferent ends, for it ts contrary to the very idea which We have of Christi- abity, as teaching absolute or universal truth con- cerniig God an¢ the soul, that a man’s Feligion ‘should depend upon climate, the pecullariues of race, the prejudices of national traditions, or the ever-changing legislition of each and every coun- wy. The name of non-conformists with which certain sects have been dubbod in England, and the pertinacity with which they have refused to ‘be marshaled into the ranks of the church as by law established, show plainly enough that even frow te point of view of the Evangeilcal Alliance emperor, King, president, parliament or Congress have wo right as such to dictate to any one what he shall beiieve or how he shall Worship God, provided that he does not, under the pretext of reiigion, violate ‘the fundamental laws of social order and morality. We now may understand, Pee’ Ue Ley of Christ's words, ‘Reader unto ‘Ceser what is Cesar's and to God that which is Goi's’ " Cathotteity, as fis name implies, 1s not bounded by the narrow limits of nationality, nor As it to be controlled by the prejudices of any one Keneration. Each society ih its proper sphere is Supreme and independent. When’ human law be- Goines unjust and oppowed to Curistiantey, the Be- Lever suffers aud is still loyai, but he preserves the intexrity of his conscience, and says that It is better to obey God than man, and as long as the civil power Keeps its own proper end in view, Which Is the temporal happiness of the citizens, and does therefore, trespass on the legitimate Fights of conscience, so long is the Catnoliec taught to respect and obey’ the law, to giory In his evun- try, to contribute to its prosperity, to love It and eXtend it if need be with his heart's blood, LOYALTY TAUGHT BY THE CRURCH. “AS a matter of fact,even when the Government ‘Decomes tyrannical, did not the Christians duriog ‘We three first centuries of our era act on the prin- etple that whoever resists authority goes contrary Vo God's ordinance? They refused to Worsilp idols, Dut While a war of extermination was being waged against them the emperors had no more trusty subjects. “During the ages when the church had to con- tend against the Vices of the lower empire, to un- dertake the siow and dificult process of civilizing the barbarians in the West, to Witness the strites Detween kings, Hobles, Guelphs and Ghibeilines, Catboileity being coextensive with christendom, he sovereign pontif! became, DY the consent of es, a common arbitrator. * * * ~The English martyrs under Elizabeth died with protestations of loyalty on their lips. It 1s not hecessary for me to point out to youhow in mud €rn times the Itallan, Freeh, Trist, Gerwan or English Catholic Was as loyal'to his country as any of his non-Catholic fellow-cttizens, In the ace-German War tue Catholic ‘Teuton fought With as much patriotism as the Catholic Frenci- man, But we have no uced of recurring to events Of the past to show that spiritual allegiance to the pope does not weaken our patriotism,” I appeal to Fou, my Catuolle brethren, are you Lot as thoroughly ley.ai to your country as ‘any among Your fellow-citizens? Are you not in full sym- pathy with the highest apirations of your coun iryment Are you not ready to stand by the Con- stitution and laws? Do you view your religion as in &aDy Way opposed Lo your duty to your couatry? I know that { can make myself the interpreter of your ‘thoughts when I say that you are as true Ameri- ean ‘patriots as there ts in this Broad land. Anarchists, he sild, come not from among us, and, 8 you have but lately ween, the church docs pot countenance those wis by inisiirected theories as to property aud the like threaten the Well being of sackets: THE QUESTION OF EDUCATION. “as for education,” he sald, “the spouse of the | Word of God is always anxtous that ner children should beenlightened, It istrue that we Catholics don of consider that an education is complete with- Out lmparting a kuowledge of God and of the soul. Are we mistaken in this?’ Is there not a flagrant €ontradiction in the conduct of men who bund to- wether to direct evangelical Influences to bear ‘upon our people, and who thoughtlessly and most Anconsistently procialin that the teaching of the Shall be banished from tue schools? How, ask, cab men who call themselves Christians dare {tocoutend that & Godless education can be pleas Jug to God, or calculated to promote the best In- Yerests of’ the rising generation? That we are the friends of education, the countiess coil and primary schools scat wish to see the children of our separated brethren grow up in ignorance. If there ts no hope of our agreeing ou religious doctrines, ali we Cath lies desire ts that we should have deuomiuational Schools, If we cannot obtain them we will quietly ‘Gvntinue to tax ourselves heavily to yive our chil- Gren s Christian training, which aloue is worthy ‘the name of education. “The Catholic Church has Deen during the past week highly praised for her wany charities, for our hospitals, homes for the | poor, and asylums for the littir ones How Is it to men WhO see those evidences of a vine life refuse tosee that t Guces those fruits cannot be bad! ay thank God that He has giv Privilege of belag like the One come Into Une world to save that tree which pro- truly, we COMMITTEES TO HAVE CHARGE OF THE ENTERTAIN- MENT ANNOUNCED. ‘The following committees have been announced to take charge of the G.

Seated in chafrs upon the long platform, immediately in the rear of the pulpit, were Mrs. 8. D. La Fetra, the well-known temperance worker, Mrs. Dr. J. P. Newman, Mrs Hl. B. Moulton, Rev. A. B. Leon- ard, of Cincinnatt, Rev. P. Bergstresser, of Middle ton, Md., Rev. J. P. “Mills, of Cleveland, Rev. Mr. Black, of Baltimore, and Revs. 8. Domer and €. Baldwin, of this city. Rev. Dr. Leonard, of Ohio, spoke on “The Extermination of the Liquor Trafic.” The liquor trae, he said, 1s deleterious to every intellectual, moral and’ material in- terest of the country. Nothing, he sald, less than the absolute destruction of te trae, root and branch, would be satisfac tory to the temperance workers, “And, thank God,” said he, emphatically, “the Supreme Court tells us that it will be done.” He referred In sar- castic terms to Lhe commissions appointed by the United States Government. to “Inquire into the | nature and ravages of the Rocky Mountain,” and Lo cross to the other side of the globe-to Witness the transit of Venus, and sald that at the same ‘me a peuition, signed by thousands, was handed to Congress asking for the appotntinent of a com- mission to inquire into the effects of the liquor traMic, and it went Into one of the committeesand Was sinothered. On the subject of intimidation the speaker sald there was a time when slavery eracked its whip over the United States Supreme Court and every power tn the land. To-day the Saloon-keeper’s bludgeon takes the place of the whip and commands obedience. ‘The Supreme Court, when it gave its recent dectsion, defied in- and bribery. It is the only degartment AMeDL that has not teit the power of keeper. ‘The speaker referred to the re- cent death of Capt. S.S. Blackford. He sald that he went Saturday to the District Commissioners’ oMice to lato the liquor license case of Jno. 201 G street northwest. ‘There ne found that a sumictent number of signers had been obtained to give the Cou sstoners an excuse for granting the Heense. It appeared to him that the Whole weight of that oflice was on the side of the saloon-keeper. “Theexercises were concluded with an addvess by the Kev. Dr. Nobie, of San Francisco, Who said that the traffic is a standing menace not only to the weal but to the Ife of the repub! Tu the audience were Mrs. Belva Lockwood, Mr. H. B. Moulton, and Maj. 8.

A temperance meeting was held yesterday after- noon in the Baptist Zion chureh, South Washing- ton, under the direction of Mrs. T. A. Williams, of the W.C.T.U. ‘Thirty-seven signed the piedge, and steps were taken toward the organization of 4 temperance society in the church, eee THE FORESTS OF GAUTEMALA. ‘Mr, Miles Rock Tells of the Wonder- ful Central American Wilderness, Professor Miles Rock, of the Guatemala Boun- dary Survey, gave the first inthe course of lec- tures under the auspices of the Amateur Botanical Club, at the National Museum, Saturday evening. Professor Foster, of Howard University, president of the club, in introduetng the speaker gave a briet alstory of botanical organizations in fhe city, from. the first soctety, which died n 1825, to the organt- zation of the botanical branch of the Biological Society last weex. The Amateur Club, now less Uhan a year old, has been one of the means in the revival of botanical interest. The ladies of the chub, to Whom much of its sueces is due, acted as ushers for the evening. In Guatemala, the lecturer of the evening sata, there are three characteristic belts of climate ant plant-growth; first, from sea-level to 3,000 feet, comprising 24,000 square miles, or over one-half of the eutire republic, including’ the Pacific, Carib- bean, and Guif plains, and the lower valley of the principal rivers. ‘This zone Is called the “terra caliente.” ‘The second zone Is called the “tierra templada,” and may be Muntted to the elevations between 3,000 and 9,000 feet, and comprises most of the inhabited regions, as the interior volcanic ash plains on which most of the cities are found and agriculture flourishes, and also the lower mountain slopes and table lands. This zone com- prises about 15,000 square mules, or one-third of the country. ‘The third zone coinprises the parts of the country that rise above 9,000 feet, about one-tenth of the whole area, or 4,000 squaré miles, and is called the “tierra fria,” and has @ cold tem— perate to cold citmate, “In at least two table lands rises to 11,000 feet and over, and the highest Tidges overtop them by rising to 12,000 feet. Loom- ing above all some six voicante’ cones shoot up thetr apexes to the clouds at 13,000 to 14,000 fect above the sea, 2 At these highest elevations nightly frosts occur ‘the whole year, and at the lower Limiit of 9,000 feet only during the dry and clear season, but frosts occasionally occur too near the lower limit of the temperate belt, or 4,000 feet, where Neids of sugar- cane are sometimes destroyed, and at 5,000 fect coffee plantatiousare ruined. Pine, spruce, cedar, and so-cailed box-tree forests prevail on the v cano slopes, the higher mountains, and their steep Tavines. Below 9,000 fe-t there 1s still pine, and auch oak.

Potatoes and wheat are not grown below 7,000 to 8,000 feet. ‘The northern slopes facing the Gulf are almost an unknown wilderness at all but the highest altitudes.

Besides voting Mr. Samuel Spencer $25,000 as president of the company and accepting Mr. King’s resignation, as stated in Saturday's Stax, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad directors trans- acted other important business. A committee of five, to consist of three on the part of the stock- holders and oneeach on the part of the State of Maryland and the city of Baltimore, was ap- potnted to draft by-laws for the government of the company. The terms of the consolidated mort- gage bonds of $29,600,009 were read and ayproved and a report adopted. The report says that after a dividend of 4 per cent on May 17 last there was 4 balance from earnings of $17,605.44, besides pro- vision for a reduction of the bonded debt_and for sinking funds to the amount of $775,461.80.

President Spencer was born at Marietta, Ga, March 2, 1847. In 1862 he entefed the Georgia Military Institute, and in the next year went into see San an 8 Aa ee -nt compan: that did dut find Southwests. In iso7 he. graduated from the University of and after studying civil en- Bineering was appointed to a position on the Balti, more and Ohio Railroad. He Tose very Fapidly £0 the place of chief clerk {nthe office of Thos. R. ‘Sharp, master of transportation, and when Austin Corbla made Mr. Sharp grucsel fauuager of the re- organized Island Railroads he vook Mr. Spencer with him in an important capacity. In 1881 he returned to Ballimore as third vice-prest- dent of the Baltimore and Outo. In December, Ist2, Le Was promoted to secoud vice-president, and in November, 1884, to first vice-presiaent, H¢ had charge of the road during Robert Garrett's long absences in Europe, Dut was not respansible for anything beyond the executve management, MR. KING'S LETTER OF RESIGNATION. The letter of resignation of Se:ond Jice-Prest- dent Thomas M. King, of the Baltimore and Ohio Co., Was given out last night. Mr. King resigns because he ig advised that harmonious relauions cannot exist if he continues to hold his position, ‘The letter then gives a history of Mr. King’s con- nection with the road, and shows that, as far back a> 1594, When Robert Garrett was elected president the first time, the president informed bin that the company was in need of additional funds to carry on its affairs, and that he (King) and Gencral Counsel Cowen negotiated the Pittsburg Division loan. Tn securing tuis loan, he says, they were greatly antagonized by New Yorkers. Mr. King Says when he took charge of the Philadelphia ex- tenston the Baltimore and Ohio had no contract with the Reading, which line 1t was intended to use to New York.” The charter of the Schuylkill River East Side ‘Railroad, over whic they must depend for a Philadelphia entrance, was vested in the Reading, and for whlch a large sum was asked of the "Baltimore and Ohio. He intimates that this was an unpardonable piece of stupidity, spending millions of moaey In the construction of aifne without any definite arrangement for get- Ung it into Pulladelphia or through to New York. He Mnally corrected the trouble by obtaining tne Bast Side Road charter for $64,175, and a valuable contract with the Reading company. Mr. King then states, without reserve, the exact Cost of constructing the Philadelphit line Which has al- Ways been a mooted question among outsiders. ‘The total cost, iucluding the East Side Railroad up to September 30, 1887, Was $1,418,017. The loans plaved upon this property amount to $16,116,000. There ts, vherefore, a Temainder Of $1,032,083. From these loans of’ this amount $525,000 will be Tequired todouble track 25 miles betiveen Phila- delphi. and Baltimore, to complete the Philadel- phia passenger station and the terminal facilities contemplated on the Delaware Hiver. The re- mainder he thinks ample to pay all adjusted right of way. Mr. King has forwarded to the Ive boards his resignation as president of the Schuylkill River East Side Railroad Co., Sharpsvilie Railroad Co,, Salisbury Raliroad Co.,” Fairmount, Mot town and Pittsourg Raliroad Co., and Wheeling, Pittsburg and Baltimore Railroad Co., and asman- aging director of the Staten Island Rapid Transit Railroad Co, —_—_—_ Hack Stands in the City.
