The Chicago police have received from New Castle, Pa., a request for inrorma- tion regarding the parents of a child be- leved to have been kidnaped several years ago and left in that city. The child, a girl, then three years old, was taken to New Castle three years ago, by W. H. Haswell, who claimed to be an actor. He said the girl was his daughter, but tho child was richly dressed, and refused to call Haswell her father, her clothing being marked “‘S. S. Winsor.” Recently Hiaswell died, and investigation has led to the be- Hef that the little girl was stolen from wealthy parents some placa in the west. Reservoir at Scranton Bursts. A storage reservoir containing 2,500,000 gallons of water at Scranton, Pa., and owned by the Lackawanna Iron and Steel Com- pany, burst last night. It is situated in the heart of the city, and did considerable daim- age, filling the repair yards of the Dela- ware, Lackawanna and Western railroad with wreckage and washing away a portion of Mattes street. A girl was swept along a quarter of a mile, and was rescued by firemen. Street car traffle was blocked for several heurs. Hundreds of factory girls crose™ the path of the water a few mo- menta hefore the break occurred. YER’S Cherry Pectoral. Received Highest Awards At World’s Fair. When in doubt, ask for Ayer’s Pills.

This convention will be held at the place where the “Garus” were delivered to Tammany. These anti-Tammany “Garus” declared yesterday that Wednesday's con- vention was packed; that men entered and left the hall so that when the final vote was taken indorsing the Tammany ticket it was tinpossible to tell who were dele- gates and who were not. They declared, tco, that in the confusion it was impossi- ble to count the delegates who arose in op- position to the vote for fusion, and that no honest attempt was made to count them. The Staats Zeitung, Mr. Oswald Otten- dorfer’s paper, and generally recognized. as the organ of the Germans in New York, says: “Tammany Hall, the old, corrupt, unim- Proved and unimprovable Tammany Hall, which through the glorious uprising of the people last year was forced out of power and completely isolated, has again obtain- ed an ally. The G. R. U., which took such an honorable and important part in that battle for honest government against an organization of reckless politicians, has deemed it advisable to accept the program laid out by Tammany Hail, and call its candidates for office its own.” The editorial then comments on the suf- fering endured by the Germans uncer Roosevelt's reign, and says that it fs hard- ly to be wondered at that many thought the experience sufficient excuse for the alliance. Continuing, it says: “A Tammany victory, however, under these circumstances, is the narrow door through which, if once opened, the same gang that created so much damage in this elty will force its way. Every union with ‘Tammany Hall is a public misfortune.” Tax Commissioner Theodore Sutro. whe was formerly president of the G. A. said yesterday that the indorsement of Tammany would undoubtedly cause a split in the German ranks and lead to the for- mation of another organization. At lunch Mr. Sutro met several leaders of the union. and the Maennerchor Hall meeting was thoroughly discussed. All declared the ac- tion of the convention disastrous to the principles for which the union was formed. Charles Stewart Smith, chairman of the executive committee of the committee of id yesterday: predict that from 75 to 80 per cent of the German voting population will follow Mr, Ottendorfer, Mr. Schurz, Mr. Scnweb and other men of that character on elec- tion day. The fusion ticket offers them the same relief on the excise question, and with far more certainty of effect than any- thing that Tammany can possibly give them in that direction, no matter what ‘Tammany may promise.” -- ee — HOW THE POPE REGARDS IT. Comments on the Celebration of the Occupation of Rome. The letter of His Holiness Pope Leo XIII to Cardiral Rampollo, the papal sec- retary of state, on the recent fetes in cele- braticn of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the entry of the Italian troops into Rome, has been published in Rome. It 1s as follows: “The sentiment of humanity, which even minds dominated by passion retain, seemed to permit of the hope of some consideration in our o!d age, but this has been brutally ignored. We have been reduced to become almost immediate wit- resses of the apotheosis of the Italian revo- lution and the spoliation of the holy see. ‘That which most afflicted us is the design to perpetuate rather than to terminate the confitct, of which no one can measure the disastroua effects. The final object of the cceupaticn of Rome was not to complete political unity, but, in destroying the walls of the temporal métropolis, to more closely attack the spiritual power of the popes. The object was to charge the destinies of Rome, return it to paganism and give birth to a third Rome and a*third era of civili- zation. That is what it was desired to celebrate receatly under the sanction of the new law by noisy demonstrations conduct- ed by @ sect which is the enemy of God.” The letter of the pope then vaunts the gs of pontifical sovereignty in- ites Italians not to be bound up with sects and to consider how pernicious it would bo to perpetuate the conflict which is profit- ing the enemies of Christianity. It then affirms that the head of the church follows with loving vigilance humanity's road, and desires to accept the reasonable necessities of the times. Tha letter of his holiness concludes. with: “If Italians, throwing off the Masonic yoke, would listen to us, we could open our heart to the fondest hopes: Otherwise, we can but predict new perils and greater dis- asters.” b soe. Rev. Dr. John G. Morris Dead. Rev. Dr. John G. Morris, the venerable Lutheran clergyman, died at his home at Lutherville, Md., at 11 o'clock last night, aged ninety-two years. Dr. John Godlove Morris, D.D., LL.D., was a son of Dr. John Morris, a surgeon in the revolutionary war. He was born in York, Pa., November 14, 1803. He was pre- pared for college at York County Academy, and at the age of seventeen years was ad- mitted to the sophomore class at Nassau Hall, Princeton. Later he was transferred to Dickinson College. In October, 1826, having become a Lutheran minister, he was licensed to preach in Winchester, Va.. and was soon called to the organization which afterward formed the First Lutheran Church in Baltimore. There he remained thirty-three years, and the Second and Third English Lutheran churches were founded. He was pastor of the Third Chureh for three years. Since the end of his pastorate at Third Church he had no station, although he frequently preached in Baltimore and elsewhere. Dr. Morris deserved distinction as a clergyman, scien- tist. historian, author, teacher and _ biblio- phile. As a scientist, he devoted himself specially to entomology and microscopy. He founded the Lutheran Observer, and was one of the founders of Lutherville Fe- male Seminary. He published a large num- ber of valuable works in departments of theology, science, history and piece besides many review and magazine ar cles. ——_——+ee—_____ The Evening Star for the full time the mystery story, “When the War Was Over,” is running, including back numbers, will be sent, postpaid, to out-of-town sub- seribers for 60 cents.

Zeninger of Milwaukee, Wis. who have spent ten months in Europe and the Holy Land, re- turned last night and were welcomed by all the Catholic societies in the city, mak- ing up a procession of 10,000 men with torches and ten brass bands. A reception was held at the cathedral and at the arch- episcopal residence, and Archbishi Kat- zer was presentod with @ purse by the so- cleties, containing $2,000, ‘Week and the Accused Released on Personal Bonds. The Belva Lockwood criminal libel case reached the Police Court this morning. The accused acted in her own behalf, although she will have other counsel; read from Bishop on criminal law to show that the case was not properly in court, and was granted a continuance until next Wedne: day. The announcement, made exclusively in yesterday’s Star, that the warrant had been issued had the effect of atiracting a number of persons to the court, as they wanied to hear the defeated presidential candidate argue her own case. Mrs. Lockwood was not put to the neces- sity of giving bond last night, but was merely notified that her presence in court was desired, for there was no ‘suspicion that she would attempt to repeat the ex- ample set thirteen years ago by Capt. Howgate, and depart. She reached court soon after the opening hour, and occupied a seat inside the coun- sel rail, where, as a lawyer, she had a right to sit, and conversed about her case with those whom she knew. She in Served With a Warrant. Just before Prosecuting Attorney Mul- lowny was ready to call the case, Deputy Marshal McCormick stepped over to Mrs. Lockwood and said: “I have a warrant for you. Do you want me to read it, or will you acknowledge service?” “I'll acknowledge service,” she answered, “but I would like to know the charge. Is it for murder or horse stealing or some- thing mere serious?” “Really, I haven't read the paper,” said the marshal, “and don't know what it charges.” Mrs. Lockwood then looked over the legal instrument, and found that it charged her with criminal libel, and set out one of the several alleged posters she is charged to have pinned on the door of the office room theretofcre occupied by Lawyer R. E. L. White. The alleged libel set out in the warrant readg: “You beet Won woman outen hur rent an’ to beet the Loan an’ Truss now tryin’ Cumpany.” When the case was called Mrs. Lockwood said she would plead not guilty, and then the witresses were called into court. Before they were sworn Mrs. Lockwood informed the court that the warrant had just been served on her. “The charge,” she said, “is a serious one, and I have had no time to make prepara- tions for the defense and get an attor- ney.” She informed the court that there were already two civil cases pending, and read from Bishop on criminal law. Her point was not weli taken, so the court decided, and the case would have to be heard. Threatened With Various Prosecu- tions Mr. Mullowny was anxious to have the case tried today and said he had netified Mrs. Lockwood several days ago that the case was to be brought. “That's true,” said Mrs. Lockwood, “and in addition to this I've been threatened by Mr. White with prosecutions for alleged perjury, nuisance and for damages.” Judge Miller said that as the case had just been brought to the attention of the court Mrs, Lockwood was entitled to a con- tinuance. Mr. Mullowny said that he had a witness from Philadeiphia (Mr. Conway) whom he would like to have examined, so he would not have to come all the way back here next week. Andrew EL. Conway was the man’s name, and after being calied a number of times he responded. He told Judge Miller that he lived at 61 L street northwest, but is now employed on the Philadelphia Times. Mr. Muilowny said he expected to prove by Mr. Conway that Mrs. Lockwood pinned ihe paper containing the alleged libel on the oor. As Mr. Conway said he would be on hand when wanted, the case was continued until next Wednesday. Judge Miller accepted Mrs. Lockwood's personal bonds. ——— COLORED MEN TO CONFER. Many Matters Desirable for Them to Discuss. A call has been issued by a committee of prominent negroes from many states in the Union for a national conference of colored men to meet at Detroit, Mich., on the 12th of December, 18%. The call, which is a lengthy one, says, in part: “We had hoped that after the national convention of colored men in Washington, 1873, we would have no further necessity for colored conventions, that the legisla- tion then before Congress would work out the complete citizenship of the negro, and place him in pessession of the means to frotect himself in the exercise of his rights. But here we are today, thirty years from the evert of emancipation, and millions of free men are practically disfranchised, the Constitution of the United States set at de- fiance, colored American citizens not al- lowed freedom of locomotion, the freedom of decent transportation, municipal cor- porattons grating license to private citl- zens to deny us accommodation in hotels, restaurants, barber shops, places of amuse- ment, etc.; the existence of mob and lynch law in disposing of colored men and women’ arrested on suspicion of commiting gross offenses. “These are some of the reasons why a national convention of colored men should be called, and a consultation held on this terrible conditicn of the American negro as a citizen and a man in this free and en- lightened civilization.” ——— Changes in the Interior Department.

Y., yesterday by the Rev. Judson Titsworth of Milwaukee. After the reading the Rey. Charles S. Mills of Ohio made an address. The report of the committee on union with Free Paptists was read by the Rev. W. M. Ward. The report says that there are two ways in which the union of sep- arate denominations can be made visible in the world. One is by actual, corporate union; the other by confederation; each de- nomination maintaining its eeparate exist- ence, but meeting and conferring together at stated times for their mutual advantage. Where corporato union cannot be secured, confederation may partly serve the pur- pose of exhibiting the unity of believers. The New Jersey association presented its declarations defining their position on church unity. Last evening the subject for discussion was: Two hundred and seventy-five years from (9:30 p.m.) Plymouth Rock, including reference to the twenty-five years of the life of the National Council.

Details of the Disnster Related by Admiral Gomes, Admiral Gomez has arrived at Havana from the Colorado reefs, the scene of the wreck of the Spanish cruiser Cristobal Co’on. He confirmed the details previously given by the Associated Press, saying that on September 20 the cruiser was off the western extremity of the isiand In a heavy sea and with the Colorado reefs to lve- ward. As night approached, the weather developed into a regular cyclone, and the cruiser could not head out to sea. In ad- dition, her officers, owing to the total dark- ness, were unable to make any observa- tions. Some of thm were in favor of at- tempting to round Cape San Antonio and make Cienfuegos, and bthers were of the opinion that it would be best to make an aitempt to reach Havana. The majority, however, thought It best to try and ride out the storm off the coast of Pinar del Rio. But the cruiser was driven nearer and nearer to the reefs, and shortly after midnight she began to ground, and scme time afterward was almost fast on the reefs. The commander of the Cristobal Colon had previously done everything pos- sible to keep her cff the shore, but without avail, as the cyclone blew harder and harder, eventually, early in the morning of September 39, driving her right over the reefs. During the morning of September 30 the commander of the wrecked cruiser ordered the crew to lower the boats and try and reach the shore.” He determined, however, to remam on hoard with twenty men, and addre:sing the second officer in command, he said: “If you can send back the boats in safety, do so. But, if the cyclone gets reavier, do not risk anybody’s life, and tell my wife that my last thoughts were for hi The boats reached Santa Marla with great difficulty, and were eventually able to return and rescue the captain and the remainder of the crew. The cruiser and her heavy artillery will, beyond a doubt, Prove a total loss, although her light guns and ammunition have been saved. Recent Events in Cuba. Gen. Oliver has exchanged shots with the insurgents at Sierra Jicuibu. The insur- gcnts retreated, leaving one killed and one wounded. In conjunction with the column com- manded by Col. Palanca, the troops com- manded by Gen. Oliver have left for Se- berucal, in order to attack 2.000 insurgents who are reported to be occupying a strong m there. A severe engagement is ex- pected. A dispatch from Remedios says that the insurgents have thrown dynamite sheik at a railroad train near Remedios, in th province of Santa Clara; one passenger was+ killed and six were wounded.

Be CELEBRATION BY CUBANS, It is Held in Memory of the Execution of the Students, The Cubans in Tampa, Fle, held an im- mense celebration last night, tommemorat- ing the declaration of independence of Yara in 1868. Fully 5,000 people were in attend- arce, one-third of whom were Americans. Many patriotic addresses were made. Con- gressman Sparkman sent a letter of regret, of which the following is an extract: “The cause of liberty is always dear to American hearts, and thelr sympathies are always active for those struggling to secure its blessings. This is especially true with ref- erence to our neighboring island, and the efforts of the people of that island to throw off the yoke of foreign domination strikes a responsive chord in every American breast ard should receive, as it does receive, tl sympathies of the liberty loving of the world.” A spécial dispatch from Key West, sent lest night, says: Today being the aniversa- ry of the execution of seven students at Havana, it was celebrated in a fitting man- ner by ceremonies which began by the raising of the Cuban flag underneath t American flag at the city hall and court hcuse amid cheers, music and the booming of cannon. Residences and business houses were gaily decorated, most of the latter be- ing closed for the day. A long procession paraded the streets, and then went to the cemetery, where the monument in memory of Cuban leaders who perisped for the cause was decorated. Addtesses were made then ard at night, and the people were very enthusiastic. John Buell Frazier, a negro, was acci- dentally killed by the explosion of a cannon used in the celebration. To fire the last salute a double charge was put in, causinj the explosion. The top of Frazier’s hi was blown off. ——-— -see SAVED BY oll.

The Cleveland branch hydro- graphic office now reports the first case of the practical application of this informa- tion on the lakes. The schooner E. R. Wil- liams was cast away in Green Bay during the great storm about ten days ago In a sea so broken and furious that the sailors believed it to be impossible for a boat to e for a moment. Capt. Hunioon, how- ever, bethought himself of the oil and by dripping it over the windward side of hit lifeboat he succseded in landing every one of his crew safely, the seas, though large, being prevented from breaking. —— Receipts and Expenditures.
