NO MYSTERY IN HS COMING An Authoritative Statement About the Objects of His Visit. GREAT INFLUENCE IN ROME en . Archbishop John J. Keane will be at the Parsonage of St. Patrick’s Church, corner of 10th and G streets northwest, Monday afternoon. He will be the guest of his old and dear friend, Rey. John F. Gloyd, and will probably remain in the city for two or three days. Archbishop Keane arrived in New York yesterday direct from the city of Rome, and came in pursuance of the re- solve he made when called to the council of the Vatican to revisit America every year, for the purpose of seeing his friends; of keeping himself personally familiar with the interests of the American Catholic church, which he represents in Rome, and to attend the meeting of the board of di- rectors of the Catholic University of America, the institution that he elevated to its present high plane, and which is the mest cherished substantial object of his heart. Unfounded Speculation. The announcement of Archbishop Keane's intended visit gave rise to an immense amount of speculation by the newspapers regarding the objects of the eminent pre- late. It was stated that one of the ends he had in view was the succession to the late Archbishop Jannsens of New Orleans, and into this consideration was interjected the gossip that Monsignor Schroeder of the Catholic University, who was so prom- inently heralded last year as the agent who had brought about Archbishop Keane's dep- esition from the rectorship of the univer- sity, was exercising every influence to pre- vent the latter from being called to the see of New Orleans. It can be stated on the highest authority that there is no truth in the assertion that Archbishop Keane either wishes or will be called to succeed the late Archbishop Jann- sens. His call to Rome was in pursuance ef a plan long premeditated of having at the Vatican a man who was personally ta- millar with the Roman Catholic Church in unis country. The Man for the Place. The pope and his immediate advisers had long been dependent for advice upon sub- jects in connection with the American church upon men in no sympathy with American purposes or American ideas, 1t was necessary, by reason of the growing importance of the church in this country, to have some one of broad and comprehen- sive knowledge of such things to advise upon the policy to be pursued in this direc- tion, and Archbishop Keane was decided upon. The wisdom of the choice has been more and more impressed upon Pope Leo ever since it was made, The erudition, thé scholarship, the eloquence, the profound judgment displayed by Archbishop Keane since his residence in Rome have given the Vatican authorities a new idea of the cha acter and abilities of Am n chureh- men, and changed in a substantial degree the prejudice formerly felt against them. His Value in Rome. There is no mystery whatever in his visit. It has been taken in pursuance of the in- tention he made when he left America, noted above. The archbishopric of New Orleans would be a great honor to any prelate, but the importance of Archbishop Keane's duties at Rome and the immensely valuable services he is enabled to give to the church at large, and especialiy in Amer- » by reason of his position there, are too t to allow him to consider the idea of seeking succession to Archbishop Jann- sens. Regarding Mgr. Schroeder's connection with the affairs of the American church, it is a_ well-known fact that every policy of the Vatican regarding the American church in the recent past has been at variance with his views and those of the “German” party, as it is called, which he represents, and not long ago, as will be well remem- bered, the announcement was made and remains uncontroverted that he was seek- ing some field more congenial than that which now surrounds him at the Catholic University. ‘The above statements may be taken as absolutely authoritative. His Arrival in New York. The New Herald this morning prints the following: “Archbishop John J. Keane arrived in this city from Rome yesterday. He came unheralded, ard, while his visit was ap- parently a complete surprise to the repre- sentatives of Archbishop Corrigan, it was evidently expected by Archbishop John Ireland of St. Paul, Minn., who arrived from the west in the morning and speedily sought a conference with the prelate from Reme. “The meeting led to a revival of the re- Port that there is to be another war eccle- siastic, and this report gained strength When it became kno-yn that a messenger from! Southampton had arranged for a meeting between Archbishop Ki Cardinal Gibbens. ee ath ee “Priests who are close to Archbishop Corrigan would not discuss the meeting between the archbishop of St. Paul and archbishcp from Rome, but all looked very grave. Mar. Schroeder Fighting Hard. “The ostensible purpose of Archbishop Keane's return is to attend the meeting of the board of directors of the Catholic Uni- versity in Washington in October, but it is asserted that he comes thus early to ecrsult personally with his friends in the church as to the course he will pursue with reference to the vacant archbishopric of New Orleans. “It is the general understanding that he will be the successor of the late Arch- bishop Jannsens, and it is current gossip in Washington that Mgr. Schroeder, the pro- fessor of dogmatic theology at the Cath- olic University, who is credited with having been instrumental in deposing him from the rectorship of that institution, is now using all his influence to prevent him from being named for the New Orleans arch- diccese. “If the statements of the archbishop’s friends may be relied upon, he neither asks nor desires the appointment. He feels that he can be of more service to the church in Rome. Besides, his friends say, Mgr. Schroeder's effort to block the appoint- ment is a ruse to draw his fire. In other words, they hold that Mgr. Schroeder hopes his apparent opposition will lead the archbishop to accept, and thus remove him from Rome, where he is fast becoming a power. “Archbishop Keane disembarked from the steamship Trave yesterday morning, and went at once to No. 239 West 72d street, the guest of Mr. Thomas F. Ryan, ‘his bosom friend since he was a boy,’ as the archbishop described his host. Purely a Friendly Call. “There one of his early callers was Arch- bishop Ireland of St. Paul, who had ar- rived at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in the morning. “Archbishop Ireland said he came east for several purposes. Primarily, his’ trip was to attend the G. A. R. national en- campment in Buffalo, and he set out a few days in advance on a sort of summer holl- day. He declared that his call on Arch- bishop Keane was purely one of friend- ship, and without the slightest significance, although he had no doubt that attempts might be made to put a different construc- tion upon ‘it. Naturally, his friend and he had much to talk about, but nothing of public interest. A “Archbishop Keane, when I called on him at his host’s house, said he should go to Washington, and next week meet Cardi- nal Gibbons in Baltimore. He would at- tend the meeting of the wesrs, of directors. President of the seminary.in Washington, - who had oo in Cardinal Gibbons” name to arrange for a meglingirith the cardinal, who is now at Southamp' “That, the archbishop declared, was his whole program, so far as the rest, chance would decide it. He had come here on a summer tion, and with- out plans as to how here to spend it. He spoke enthusiast! of Rome and of his duties ee He ed —_ he Fy growing yout! again in the eternal city, where he enjoyed the it of health, and said that he would rét in the fall with great pleasure, after a happy visit here, to take up his work theré once more.” MR. LANGTRY’S TURN NOW f 1 Husband of the Jersey Lily Will Sue for Divorce. A special London cablegram to the Phila- delphia Press says: Edward Langtry, husband of the “Jersey Lily,” stated today that he had come from his home in South- ampton to London to bring suit for ab- solute divorce from his wife and that papers in the action would be served on her by his direction this week. Mr. Langtry is moved to this course after years of silence, under provocation that few men would endure, by the report in the English newspapers of Mrs. Langtry's prospective marriage to Prince Esterhazy De Galantha of Austria. Mr. Langtry told your correspondent that he absolutely ignored the California divorce, secured by his wife last spring, and that he had in- structed his solicitor to bring suit without regard to the action in the American courts. He said that he would name as cores- pondents what the English call “an ex- alted royal personage,” and several others, including two lords, a distinguished sport- ‘ng baronet, an officer of the guaris and an extravagant patron of the turf, who died in America two or three years ago. Mr. Langtry told me that he was con- vinced he had kept silent too long and that he was now determined to “vut his foot down.” Mr. Langtry says that while he should name several corespondents, he should depend, for purposes for divorce, on his wife’s cruise in the Mediterranean on the White Ladye with a young officer of the guards. Mr. Langtry does not think that tre di- vorce will be contested, as the name of Esterhazy will probably figure extensively in the court proceedings. Prince Esterhazy is a noted character in Europe. He is prominent in Austria and is favorably known at the court of his country. The Jersey Lily is proverbial for her par- tiality of sporting men, and the prince is one of the foremost horsemen in Europe. His racing stock is well known on the tracks of the continent and his income is sufficiently large to make the best hloods of Paris jealous. Prince Paul, for that is his Christian name, is descended, by an oC dispensation of fate, from the Earl of jersey. Both parties to the proposed match have not been without experience in the way of matrimony. Prince Paul's son by his first wife is now an officer in the Austrian army. Esterhazy is fifty-four years old, but it is said that he does sot look nor feel his age by twenty years. Mrs. ngtry is in town, at the Savoy Hotel, where she dined with Esternazy this evening. secon 4 ————_ + e+ —____ COXEY FOR GOVERNOR. = Lente Nomination at Popu Commonweal Receives the ist Convention. After a most exciting_session, in which fisticuffs played a promifgnt part as a con- vincing argument, the Ohio state populist, cenyention, which mét at Columbus, nomin- ated the following Yeke€] For governor, Jacob 8. ceunty.

Morris, Auglaise county. . “ As told in a special to The Star, yester- Gay, the proposition to fuse with the demo- crats was overwhelmingly defeated. A committee was appointed to investigate the charges of corruption made by the ad- vocates of fusion. ‘The convention remained in session until after 6 o'clock awaiting the report of this committee, but it was not forthcoming, and the convention adjourned sine die, with the understanding the committee would re- pert to the state central committee. Rev. J. H, Taylor and Hugo Preyor of Cleveland, both fusionists, were the princi- pal witnesses before the investigating com- mittee. Taylor stated he had heard the re- publicans were spending some money to assist the anti-fusion populists, and he de- termined to find out the truth of it. He said he went to Maj. Charles Dick and told him the populists were dissatisfied with the democratic campaign, and suggested that the fusion might be broken up. He refer- ted to Hugo Preyor as a prominent populist whose services would be worth securing, and arranged for a conference later between Maj. Dick and Preyor and himself. At that cenference, he claimed, Maj. Dick agreed to pay the expenses of headquarters, litera- tire, &c., for the anti-fusion populists at the state convention. Maj. Dick asked them if they needed any money for ex- penses, and Preyor said he did not. Taylor accepted $25 and a railroad ticket. Preyor Stated to the committee he had later writ- ten to Dick for money to pay his expenses and had received a check for $25, signed by Charles Dick, and drawn on the Ohio Na- ticnal Bank of Washirgton, D. C., which was submitted in evidence, ———_+ e+ ____ CUBANS ATTACK A BALL ROOM. Coxey, Stark Capture Spanish Officers Many Soldiers. A recent Havana dispatch says: Gen. Calixto Garcia has won a great victory over the Spanish trocps at the town cf Santa Rosalia, near Gibara, in Santiago de Cuba province. The town was surprised by the insurgent troops while a big ball was in progress, gt which nearly all the Spanish 6fficere wére in attendance. In the height of the festivities the ball room was ficrcely attacked on all sides by the insurgents, and the Spanish-officers had no time to prepare any plan of defense. The few other officers who were in charge of the garrison and at the outposts had already surrendered to the assailants. A few soldiers, running from the barracks, arrived at the ball room some minutes be- fore the Cubans and gave the alarm. The officers rushed to the doors to escape, but it was too late. ThaiCubams appeared with their machetes in hand ani compelled the officers to huddle agnin ip the ball room. Scme of the women >fainted and the others shrieked and sobbed. A desperate fight began, in which: the,€ubans killed cne captain and two lieutepants and thirty Spanish soldiers wha} hat},gathered around the officers.to protect them.

Dr. Spencer Predicts Its Destruction , by Lake Waters. By far the most astonishing papers read at the convention of “American Scientists” at Detroit yesterday were those by Prof. Gilbert and Dr. Spencer of Washington. Dr. Spencer, by cold, logical reason, proved that the course of the lakes was steadily cranging. Reckoning a long distance in the future, both Prof. Gilbert and Dr. Spencer agreed that the Niagara river and Falls will cease to exist, and that the ccurse of the water from the lakes will be over what is now Chicago toward the Mississippi river. Dr. Spencer said: “It is specially important at Chicago, be- cause that city stands on a low plain near the level of Lake Michigan, and close by there is a divide so low that the waters of Lake Michigan will naturally find a dis- charge to the Mississippi.” The doctor asserted that Detroit .would be the first to go, and that the overwhelm- ing disaster at Johnstown would be as nothing compared to the future catas- trophe, unless the city fathers made ake arations to prevent it. His basis of reck- oning was that the gorge at Niagara was forming at the rate of a foot a year, and diseaster was certain. ee HUMAN MONSTROSITY. Japanese Mother in. Hawaii Gives Birth to a Freak. The last edition of the Weekly Star of Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, contains an account of a human monstrosity, which was born in Koloa. The freak was of Jap- unese parentage, and was a male. It had no tongue, but something lke a tusk pro- jected in front, in the lower jaw. It had seven fingers on the left hand, eight on the right and seven toes on each foot. It was impossible for the infant to take nour- ishment except when fed through a rubber tube thrust down its throat. The parents consented to have it bap- tized by a priest. The last words of the service had scarcely been uttered when the freak expired. + “Want” ads. in The Star pay because they bring answers. te AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE,&c. Today.
