Many of these were busy at their deske | today. Many others were reading the papers and taking their ense, an unusual sight in this division, The reason for this state of things was that there was not enough work for them all to do. This will not last long, however. As fast as the work being done on the floor below is com- pleted it is sent upstairs for issue, and this morning about fiftr clerks were pat to the reg- ular work of copying. This number will be in- creased frow day to day until the muster rolls have all been put in shape again. ‘This, Mr. Brown thinks, will all be done in the course of a fortnigh: or three weeks. ‘The clerks have by no means got over the seare they had on that fatal Friday. Many of them, men who were never known to worry be- fore, have expressed some little apprehension at going to work so high up in the air. They would prefer to be a little nearer to the ground.

Because Both Will Want the Same Witnesses to Testify. NO CHANGES IN THE COURT. ee It is now settled that the army court of in- quiry appointed to ascertain Col, Ainsworth’s official responsibility for the accident at Ford's Theater will not reassemble until the grand jury shall have concluded its investigation of that affair, The reason for this is the same that caused the origins! suspension of the proceedings of the court while the case was before the coroner's jury, viz., the im- practicability of examining the same witnesses ‘at the same time by both tribunals. AWAIT THE PLEASURE OF THE GRAND JURY. It is understood at the War Department that the grand jury is now in session and that it will shortly begin the consideration of the cases of Messrs. Ainsworth, Dant, Covert and Sasse. This will necessitate the examination of witnesses whose testimony is also essential to the military investigation. In view, therefore, of the remacy of the civil proceedings in such cases e military court will await the pleasure of the grand jury before beginning its investigation. @ court adjourned without formally organ- izing, subject to the call of Gen. Casey, senior member of the court. A CONFERENCE WITH SECRETARY LAMONT. Gen. Casey had a conference with Secretary Lamont on the subject this afternoon, and it is understood that the latter fully concurred in the conclusion of the court that it would be better to defer _— its investigation until it can be conducted without the lenst interference with the civil procesd- ings and with as little inconvenience as possible to the witnesses. There is uo special necessity for haste in the matter, as there is no possible way of esca| for Col. Ainsworth if it shall be found that has violated the articles of war. NO CHANGES IN THE COURT LIKELY. Army officers take no stock in the report of possible changes in the composition of the court. Col. Ainsworth has the privilege of challenge against any member of the court on the ground of _ prejudice, but such s challenge would be of no effect without the production of satisfactory proof that the alleged prejudice ix so strong as to preclude the rendition of a verdict strictly in accord with the evidence, te HOME AGAIN. The Two Tramp Indians Whe Were ‘Stranded tn Australia. ‘The War Department is informed of the ar- rival at San Francisco of tho two Sioux In dinns who were recently discovered in Australia in a helplossly destitute condition, They went abroad with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show several months ago and after a ehort experience in Europe became dissatisfied with the routine of circus life and desertea the show. After many months of wandering they turned up in Australia. They were veritable tramps and their proud untamed spirit would not allow them to do anything for their own support. They were charges ou the colonial authorities when found by the United States consul, who finally succeeded in raising means for'their transportation to San Francisco. The case has beon referred to the Interior Department with a view to the return of the prodigals to their reservation at Pine Ridge, 8. D. Se Aa a An Exposition at San Juan, Perto Rico. ‘The Department of State bas been informed by Mr. L. R, Stewart, U. S. consul at San Juan, Puerto Rico, that, under the protection of the national government of Spain and the honor- ary presidency of the governor general of the province, there will be celebrated in that city, in commemoration of the fourth centenary of the discovery of that island, an exposition, which will be inaugurated ‘on the 26ih of November, 1893, and will continue three months, ‘The exposition will embrace: Ist.

Mr, Sullivan was immediately r arrest and is now at Mare Isiand, ., awaiting trial.

Paymaster Sullivan narrowly escaped trial for publicly criticising the action of the last ad- ministration in the Bering sea matter. He is a brother of Paymaster H. it, Sullivan, who was court-martialed a short time ago for trouble with his accounts, Chances in United States Consuls. Today. Senor Gana, the Chilean minister, was for- | mally presented to the President by the Secre- tary of State this afternoon. It is expected that Secretary Gresham and Minister Gana will, | ina few days, draw up a letter to the president of the Swiss confederation requesting the ap- pointment by him of the third member of the United States and Chilean joint commission to settle the long-pending claims of the citizens of | the two countries, The ietter will be signed by | both gentlemen,and as there is necessity for ex- | pedition the matter will probably be conducted | by cable.

Secretary Smith Takes a Hand at Making Discharges. fecretary Hoke Smith, acting upon the recommendation of the commissioner of pen- sions, has dispensed with the services of twenty- eight special examiners in the pension bureau. ‘This class of employes, of whom there are 150, are paid @1,900 per year and a per diem allow- ance of €8 per day. The law provides a tenure of office of one year for them, when they can be dropped or reappointed. Itis understood that it is the purpose of the commissioner to detail clerks of the office to fill the duties of the discharged examiners from time to time, as the law permits such a course. ‘THOSE DROPPED. Those who were dropped are as follows: Joreph F. Allison, Mlinols; J. A. Buchanan, Ilinois; Martin L. Bundy, jr., Indiana; Jobn J. Burman, Rhode Island; Cornelius B. Boorom, Connecticut; Wm. B.'

The Interior Department has again decided that appropriations for the support of Indians cannot be expended in the higher education of particular mombers of any tribe, and has thus taken a final stand against university training of Indians. Acting Secretary Sims has denied the request of the Connecticut Indian Avsociation for authority to place Isabelle Cornelius, an Oneida Indian girl and a graduate of Carlisle School, in the Connecticut Normal Training School at $167 per year in order that she may be fitted as a teacher. Gov. Sims in deciding agsinst higher educa- tion says that the department concurs in the views of Secretary Nobie of the former ad- ministration, es expresved in the decision of March 10, 1891, when Gen. Noble refused to approve Commissioner Morgan's sehemes of higher education. SECRETARY NOBLE'S REMARKS. At that time Gen. Noble wrote as follows: “In regard to those to be supported at public expense, I have to say that in my judgment it is not proper or necessary to thus expend money, for two reasons. Many of these Indians are past the age of majority and all are above the age of fifteen. To enter the university they must be fairly well educa‘ed previously. Each is possessed of a good ordinery English education and well fitted to enter upon the cultivation of land, or to resort to other means of subsistence by labor. For such work they will be no further or better fitted by a univer- sity education continued until they are from two to five years older. “It is best in my judgment to prepare the Indians for Inbor and self-support by a good ordinary common school education; and when that has been attained to place them upon lands or in other places of labor and not keep them for many years still studying the higher branches of learuing.” Secretary Nobie also held that the money pro- posed to be spent in the higher education of = few could be better expended in giving an ordinary education to many who otherwise would not get it. —_-e+_____. Naval Orders. Lieut Commander John J. Hunker has been ordered to the receiving ship Wabash as execu- tive officer. Lieut, J. D. J. Kally, to the St. Louis as executive. Paymaster H. T. Wright, to the Newark. Lieut. R. J. Lopez, from the nautical schoolship St. Mary's and ordered to duty on the coast survey. Paymaster T. 8. ‘Thompson, from the Newark, ana ordered to settle accounts and then await orders. Assistant Surgeon R. M. Kennedy, from the coast survey steamer Bache and ordered to examination for promotion. ie ‘Testing Steel Armor Plate. The bureau of ordnance, War Department. has decided to use an 11}¢-inch standard steel plate for testing armor-piercing projectiles, A plate of this kind made by the Bethlehem Com- pany was recently tested at the Sandy Hook ing ground and proved highly satisfactory. ‘he test was made with a 10-inch gun. —_—_—_—_—___e-—_______. Consular Appointments. Asa result of the enormous pressure brought to bear upon the Department of State nearly one-third of the United States consuls abroad have been changed. There are about 300 con- suls in the service, but, owing to the small compensation attacked to a number of the places and the dificulty of securing compe- tent persons who are willing to accept them, the number of really desirable posts, paying not lews than $1,500 per annum, does not ex- ceed 250, and of these the President has made ‘up to June 15 in the case of 83 con- The New York Paid For. The Treasury Department has sent the Cramps, at Philado!phia, a check for $700,000 on the New York.

Bazrrmone, June 21.—Cardinal Gibbons has givon the United Press the official translation of the much-disoussed pontifical letter from the pope on the school question. It shows the pope's love for America, eulogizes Mgr. Satolli, gives the two-fold purposo of his mission; his position on the school ques- tion, explained to the archbishops in New York, | misunderstood by others, is indorsed by the | pope, who deciares it to be in harmony with the council of Baltimore, which remains in its in- tegrity. ‘The correspondence follows: Your Eminence: I herewith transmit to your eminence the pontifical letter upon the noted school question, I do not doubt that your eminence will read with pleasure its contents, and I hope that the im- portant document will be established in the minds of all who have been interested in this question, It is the desire of the holy father that your eminence would kindly have the letter printed and distributed to ail the bishops of the United States. I would remain with profound respect, Your eminence's devoted servant, M. Cazppiat RomPoiis. Rome, June 1, 1893. To his eminence, James, Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore.

Porr Leo XIIL Beloved son and venerable brethren, health and apostolic benediction. ‘MGR. SATOLLI'S MISSION. We have often given manifest proofs both of our solicitude for the welfare of the faithful people and bishops of the United States of Americaand of the peculiaraffection with which | wecherish that portion of ourSavior'sfiock. Of we have given an additional and unmistak- able evidence in sending to you as our delegate | our venereble Brother Francis, titular arch-| bishep of Lepanto, an illustrions man, not less | pre-eminent by his learning than by bis virtues, ‘as you yourselves, in the recent meeting of the archbishops in New York. have plainly testified, | thus confirming the trust which we had de-| posed in his prudence. Now, his legation had this for its first object: | That it should be « public testimonial of our good will toward your country and of the high esteem in which we hold those who administer the government of the republic; for he was to ‘assist in our name at tho dedication of the uni- versal exposition held in the city of Chicago, in which we ourseives, by the courteous invita- tion of its directors, have taken part. Bat his legation had this also for its purpose, that our presonce ahould be made, as it were, ‘among You by the permanent estab- jinhmens of an apostolic delegation at Washing- ton. By this we have manifestly dectared not only that we love your nation equally with those most flourishing countries to which we have been accustomed to send representatives vested with our authority, butaiso that we vehementiy desire that the bonds of matual relationship | binding vou and your faithful people with us, as children with their father, should grow closer every day. Nor was it a small comfort to our heart that this new act of our care in your regard was followed by a general outpouring of thanks and afivction toward us. HIS OFFICE AS A PRACEMAKER. Now, in our fraternal solicitude for your woil-being, we had above all given command | to the archbishop of Lepanto that be should use all his endeavors and all the skill of his | fraternal charity {or the extirpation of all the germs of dissension developed in the too well- Known controversies concerning the proper instruction of Catholic yeuths; a dissension whore flame was fanned by various writings published on both sides, “These commands of ours our venerable brother complied with, and in the month of November of last year he repaired to New York, where there had assembled with you, be- loved son, all the church bishops of your country, y having complied with the desire which Thad communicated to them through the sacred congregation of the propaganda that, after conferring with their saffragans, they should join connsels and deliberate concerning the best method of caring for those Catholic children who attend the public schools instead of Catholic schools. The things which you wisely decreed in that mecting were pleasing to the said archbishop of Lepanto, who bestowed merited praise on yonr prudence and expressed his belief that these decrees would prove most useful. This judgment we also with great pleasure confirm, and to yourself and the other prela:es then swembled with vou we give deserved praise for having thus opportunely responded to our counsel and our expectations, THE PUBLIC SCHOOL QUESTION. But, at the same time, our said venerable brother, wishing. as it was our desire, to settle the questions concerning the right instruction of Catholic youth, about which, as above etated, controversy was’ being waged and writings published with excited minds and angry feel- ings, laid before youcertain propositiona, put in shape by himself, touching upon both the theoracial questions of the subject and thoir racticaiapplication, When the meeting of arch- Bishovs had seriously weighed the meaning and bearing of theee propositions und had asked for certain declarations and corrections in them, all thik he Arcubishop of Lepanto cheerfully complied with, Which being done, the distin- gui-hed assemblage closed its sessions with a deciiration of gratitude and of satisfaction with the way in which he had fulfilled the commi-sion intrusted to him by ua All this we tind in the minutes of the meeting, which you have taken care to send us, DISSENSIONS IN THE CHURCH. But these propositions of our delegate having been mopportunely made public, minds were at once excited and controversies started afresh, which, throngh false interpretations and through malignant imputetions scattered abroad in the newspapers, grew more wide- spread and more serious, ‘Iben certain prelaies of your count whether displeased with the interpretations pat | upon some of these propositions, or fearing the | m to souls which it veemed to them might | | thence reault, confided to us the reason of their Jansiety, and we, knowing that th vation of souls is the supreme law to be ever assiduously borne in mind by us, wishing moreover to give you an- other proof of our solicitous affection, re- quested that each of you should, in a private letter, fully open his imind to us on the subject, | Which was diligently complied with by each one of you. From the examination of these letters it became manifest to us that some of you found in the propositions no reason for apprehension, while to others it weemed that the propositions partially abrogated the disciplinary law con- cerning schools enacted by the council of bal- timore and they feared that the diversity of interpretations put upon them would en- gender cid dissensions which would prove detrimental to the Catholic schools, | clergy and faithful people intrusted to your After carefully weighing the matter we aro intimately convinced that such interpretations are totally alien from the meaning of our dele~ Rate, as they are assured they are far from the mind of this apostolic see. For the principal opositions offered by him were drawn from the decrees of the third plenary coun- cil of Baltimore and es) iy de- clare that Catholic schools are to be most sedu- Jously promoted, and that it 1 to be left to the judgment and conscience of the ordinary to decide according to the circumstances when it is lawful and when unlawful to attend the public schools. Now. if the words of any speaker are so to be taken that the latter part of his discourse shall be understood to agree, and not to dis . with what he had said before, it is surel unbecoming aud unjust so to explain bis later utterances 8 to make them dis- agree with the preceding ones. And this is the more true since the mean- ing of the writer was notatall left obscure. For, while presenting his propositions to the distinguirhed meeting in New York, he ex- pressly declared (as is evident from the min- | utes) bis admiration for the zeal manifested by the bishops of North America in the most wise decrees enacted by the third plenary | council of Baltimore for the promotion of the | Catholic instruction of the young. CATHOLIC SCHOOLS SHOULD BE MULTIPLIED. He added. moreover, that these decrees, in as far ax they contain «general rule of action, are faithfully to be observed; and that although the public schools are not to be entirely con- demned (since cases may oceur, as the council itself had foreseen, in which it is lawful to at- tend them), still every endeavor should be | made to multiply Catholic schools and to bring | them to perfect equipment. But in order that, in a matter of so grave | importance, there may remain no further room for doubt for dissension of opinions, as we have already declared in our letter of the 234 of May of iast year to our venerable brethren, the archbishop and bishops of the prov- ince of New York, so we again, as far as need be, declare that the decrees which the Balumore councils, agreeably to the directions of the holy see, have enacted concerning parochial schools, and whatever else has been prescribed by the Roman pon- tiffs, whether directly or through the sacred congregations, concerning the same matter, are to be steadfastly observed. Wherefore we confidently hope (and your de- votedness to us and to the apostolic see in- creases our confidence) that, having put away every cause of error and all anxiety, you will work together, with hearts united in charity, for the wider and wider epread of the Kingdom of God in vour immense country. But wuile industriously laboring for the glory of God and the salvation of the souls mtrusted to your care, strive also to promote the welfare of your fellow citizens and to prove the earn- estness of your love for your country, so that they who are intrusted with the administration of the goverment may clearly recognize how strong an influence for the support of public order and for the ad- vancement of public prosperity is to be found in the Catholic Church. ‘And as to yourself, beloved son, we know for certain that you will not only communicate to our other venerable brethren in the United | States this our mind, which it hath | seemed good to us to make known to you, but that you will also trive with all your power that, the controversy being not only calmed, but totally ended, as is so greatly to be desired, tho minds which have | been excited by it may peacefully be invited in mutual good will, Meanwhile. asa pledge of our affection, we most lovingly in the Lord bestow upen you and upon our aid venerable brethren, aud upon the care, the apostolic benediction.
