Transfer of Archbishop Chapelle to That Important Post. CONCEDED BY THE PAPAL DELEGATION No Official Notification of Change Yet Received Here. SKETCH OF THE APPOINTEE It was stated today at the headquarters of the papal delegation, 2d and [I streets northwest, that nothing was known of the appointment of Archbishop Chapelle of Santa Fe to be archbishop of New Orleans, beyond the press dispatches received from Rome to that effect. The report, how- ever, wds regarded as correct. In the same dispatch which announced the fact of Archbishop Chapelle’s transfer- ral it was stated that Rev. Father Fitz- maurice, rector of the Church of the An- nunciation, Williamsport, Pa., had been appointed coadjutor bishop of Erie, Pa. This is evidently a mistake, as the rector of the Williamsport church is not Father Fitzmaurice, but Father Garvey. There is a Father Fitzmaurice rector of St. Charles’ Borromeo Seminary, Philadelphia. It is stated that the appointment of Archbishop Chapelle of Santa Fe to New Orleans is 2 source of surprise as well as gratification to his frienas in this city. Archbishop Chapelle was formerly rector of St. Matthew's Church in this city, and was most highiy esteemed here. It’ was expected, however, that Bishop Maes of Covingion would be the successor of Arch- bishop Janssens. The appointment is re- garded as a victory for the priests of the Glocese in their fight against the bishops. After the death of Archbishop Janssens and the consequent vacancy a meeting was held by the priests. The latter made out a list on which were the names they wanted for arcibishop, and including the names of Archbishop Keane and Chapelle end Bishoy. Forrest of San Antcnio. The bishops of the diocese also held a meeting and submitted a list containing the ames of Bishop Heslin of Natchez and Bishop Maes of Covington. These were sent to the holy see and the appointment of Arch- bishop Chapelle followed. President Faure’s Influence. It is stated that the interference of Presi- dent Faure of Frarce had much to do with the appointment. The French pricsts at New Orleans wished a Frenchman as the archbishop, while the bishops wanted an American or Irish archbishop in sympathy with their branch of the church. A letter was sent to President Faure, in which they asked his aid in securing them an archbishep cf their own nationality. ‘The letter was sent him through his daughter. as President Faure is a Protestant. His daughter, however, is a Catholic, und she was begged to use her influence with -uer father. This was done, and the communi- cation was forwarded to Rome with the request that it be heeded, at least, with President Faure’s approval, and the ap- pointment followed. The New Orleans province is filled with Priests brought from France after they had grown up and become imbued with French ideas, and who wished to retain their language and the forms of their own country. They have always worked for an archbishop from France, and che ap- pointment of Archbishop Janssens is re- garded as in the nature of a compromise, as he was a Hollander. When he died the fight was recommenced. The Catholics who are strongly American do-not approve the appointment of Archbishop Chapelle, as they are beginning to dread foreign in- fluence. Sketch of the Archbishop. Placidus Louis Chapelle was born in the south of France in 1811. He came to this country when about fourteen years of age. He was educated principally at St. Mary’s Seminary in Baltimore, being ordained there in 1869 and receiving his degree of doctor of divinity there. He was a protege of Archbishop Spalding in Baltimore. The first field to which he was assigned was St. Mary’s parish, Rockville, Md. The young priest spent two years at St. Mary’s and was then made assistant rector of St. John’s Church, Baltimore. He re- mained there three years and was ap- pointed rector of St. Joseph’s Church in the same city where he spent ten years and made a splendid record as a brilliant preacher. Cardinal Gibbor:s appointed him rector of St. Matthew's Church in this city when the Rev. Francis E. Boyle died. He was rector here for five years, and was the pastor of many persons high in official cir- cles. The last rites of the church were ad- ministered to Gen. Philip Sheridan by Father Chapelle. In 1889 Father Chapelle Was made coadjutor archbishop of Santa Fe, N. M., being consecrated November 7 at the cathedral in Baltimore. Later he became the archbishop of the diocese, when the venerable Archbishop Salpointe re- signed. This position he has held ever since. Archbishop Chapelle is a warm per- sonal friend of Cardinal Gibbons, and it is thought that his transfer is due in a great measure to this fact. The change was a much-to-be-desired one by the archbishop, as in his present post he has some very rough work, being required to cover nearly the whole territory of New Mexico. The successor of Archbishop Chapelle in Santa Fe will not be appointed most likely for some time. ———— BANK LIQUIDATION. What Was, Received by the Stock- ders of Bank of the Republic. The distribution of the assets by the board of directors of the National Bank of the Republic, which went into voluntary liquidation August 11 last, has progressed rapidly, and liquidation is now accomplish- ed. Since July 1, 1807, the fortunate holders of stock in this institution have realized on each share of the par value of $11 the sum of $2 , from dividends, declared and paid. Enough money being retained by the hank at all times for payment in full of depositors, and these being now virtually paid off, the bank ceases to exist. The stocks and bonds were of a high grade, and, disposed of at good prices, the bills and notes were promptly paid as they matured. The directors expedited the final settlement by the sale of the banking house, the lecatior of which, being de- sirable for business purposes, and a favor- able real estate market, enabled the direc- tors to secure in cash the full value at which it was carried, as an asset, on the books of the bank. —_— > He Was Hungry. Harry W. Williams was today held in $300 bail for the action of the grand jury by Judge Kimball for the larceny of an overcoat, ued at $25, from Richard H. Dalton of . 7 B street northwest Satur- day evening. The prisoner admitted his gullt, and said that while passing Mr. Dalton’s house he noticed the front door ajar. Being hungry he entcred the house and carried off the overcoat. He had in- tended to try to raise some money on it with which to buy food, but was arrested before he could do so, the loss of the coat having been promptly reported to the po- le authorities. Williams claimed to have come to Washington Friday, and said he Freferred to be locked up for theft rather than vagrancy, as he expected would scon- er or later be the case. Pillosophy.

I Why the Government and National Bank Issues Should Be Retired— Jacob L. Greene’s Argument. Jacob L. Greere, president of the Con- recticut Mutual Life Insurance Company of Hartford, Conn., has submitted to the menetary commission an argument in favor of the retirement of government paper money and the substitution of bank paper based on assets. He objects to the present national bank notes and the greenbacks as not being the outgrowth of trade, and cor- responding to none of its needs. He de- clares at the outset that the primary char- acteristic and only source of value of a Paper currency is the property which it represents, A Paper Currency. The three points upon which the exist- ence and management of a paper currency must depend are, he says, the questions, who should issue such currency, what is the property upon which it is based, and how is that property pledged to the holder of the promise to pay; in other words, to the holder of the currency itself. It follows, he contends, that the govern- ment can in no wise be intrusted with the issuance of currency or money. Inasmuch as its functions are political, inasmuch as it is the owner of no property, and inas- much as it can obtain property only by taking ii from citizens, it cannot be suf- fered to carry on trade operations, for it can be neither buyer nor seller or have any reiation to the property upon which credit rests, and the mechanism by which it must be regulated. It is a common error to sup- pose that government issues money. It can do no such thing. It certifies the quaniity of metal in a coin by its stamp. It throws safeguards around the issuance and use of money, and it can borrow the capital of citizens for definite uses, but, under pres- ent conditions, not as a basis of business operations. These must be conducted solely by those in possession of the property upon which business depends. They can be trusted, and they are the only individuals who can be trusted, to issue credit cur- rency, just as they provide the mechanism through which their trade operations are carried on, for they alone can accurately judge of the character and amount of such eredit currency which is necded. They alone can furnish the wealth wnich is nec- essary to redeem the promise made by the issuance of credit currency, for they alone are the owners of this wealth. Referring to the American currency sys- tem, he says: ‘The present scheme is un- natural, in that it is not a true banking credit currency. It is not based upon com- mercial assets, but on a compulsory in- vestment in government debt. It is not receemable in actual dollars, but in the promise to pay dollars, aud this latter fact in itself has been cre of the most vicious influences of the greenback—the fact that it is a legal tercer. To say that a man who has promised a dollar can rid himself of that promise by tendering, not the dol- Jar, but another's promise of it, imports a standing falsehood into private contracts and destroys their sanctity, and this crit- icism applies also indirectly to the national banking currency.” The Remedy. As to the remedy he says: “To make the fromise to pay a doliar really worth a doliar it is only necessary to place suffi- cient readily conyertible property behind the promise. Because our largest experi- ence of a bank currency of uniform value was had with one based on government debt, and because the variable values of bank issues in the ante-national bank days were due to uncertainty concerning the amount of property behind the notes, people have supposed that a bond deposit is necessarily incident to stability of the value of currency. In reality, however, a properly secured, instantly redeemable elastic and adequate bank currency can be obtained by forcing all banks of issue to take national charters and prohibiting nete issues in excess of a certain percent- age of capital, with an absolute first lien upon all the property of the bank, making rote holders preferred creditors and secur- ing current redemption on demand by the banks themselves, with government guar- anty of the notes of failed banks. “These conditions are exemplified in the successful working of the Canadian bank- ing system, which is completely automatic in its ‘working, responsive to the needs of trade and furnishes currency the instant that commerce demands it, redeeming it as fast as no longer needed. Retiring the Paper. “According to the latest returns, 77.4 per cent of our gold stock ts in circulation, only 5.6 per cent is represented by cer- tificates. Of our silver dollars only 12.4 per cent are in actual use, while 85.2 are represented by certificates. If the green- backs be retired the gold held for their redemption will be paid out. At the same time goli certificates should be called in, the gold held therefor paid out and, inas- much as it is no part of the function of government to store and care for money, it should redeem its silver certificates, pay out as much silver coin as can be absorbed ty commerce and sell the rest, should there finally prove to be an unusable resi- due, thus permitting it to become available to commerce through the coin itself and througk its use as a part of the assets of the banks. Only by these means can com- mercial and monetary questions be remuy- ed from political influence and the govern- ment be freed from danger arising from commercial exigencies.” ———__-e. The Boys to Be Barred Out. To the Editor ot The Evening Star: In the very full and interesting account in Saturday evening’s Star of the basket ball game between the young ladies of the Central High School and the Carroll Insti- tute ladies’ class, a statement was made which, I fear, unless corrected, will lead to misunderstanding regarding admission to future games, and may also lead to criti- cism on the action of Carroll Institute. When the institute opened its gymnasium to ladies, some five years ago, a rule was adopted excluding men.from the gym- nasium during ladies’ hours, or at their ex- hibition or games, Professor Joyce, the in- structor, being the sole exception, and this rule has been 8o strictly enforced that, with the exception noted, no male member of Carroll InStitute has been present on the oceasions named. At the request of several of the High School ladies, a special invita- tion was given to Professor Powell, to the principal of the High School and to the inetructor in gymnastics, to be present at Saturday's game. It appears that this priv- llege was allowed to become somewhat elastic, opening the way for quite a num- ber of male enthusiasts of the game to be present, which probably led to the hope, as expressed, that at the next game between the Central and Carrol? ladies’ classes the High School boys and the friends of the young ladies generally would be present. This statement, I desire to say, is without authority. We welcome the High School girls to our gymnasium, but, on ladies’ nights, we will have to draw the line on the boys. NATHAN T. TAYLOR, President Carroll Institute. -——— Secular League Discussions. At the Maccabee Temple, 518 9th street northwest, yesterday afternoon, the Secular League was addressed by W. H. Burr on the ancient Scriptures. The speaker dis- evssed the authenticity of the Scriptures, takizg the ground that those written prior to the Revival of Learning might very properly be discredited. After the address a paper was read by John McElroy on the Relation of Morals to Religion. In part he said that the religions of antiquity seem to have been almost des- titute of morals. The object of religion, he said, should be to teach morals; some have Got done it at all, and others very tmper- fectly. Discussion of the paper followed, which was participated in by several, among whom were President Hyland C. Kirk, Maurice Pechin, Dr. Hayes and Dr. Silversmith of .

Boyle of Woodstock, Ont., and W. C. Gales, known as “Swift- water Bill.”” Mr. Daltog said that at Dawson City gold is plentiful, but food very scarce. He does not, howevér, believe that the stage of general actual starvation will be reached. There is some feeling against the two large ecmpanies operating there on account of their inability to cope with the situation successfully. It is neported by Mr. Boyle that when the Marguerite came up the Yukon in Sep- tember she was unable to proceed with her full cargo beyond Fort Yukon, and left there most of the flour aboard, bringing into Dawson a large amount of whisky, presumably for the purpose of getting larger profits than on the flour. Held Up by Armed Men. A still further shortage has been caused at Dawson owing to the fact that when the Bella came up from St. Michael’s dur- ing the first week in October she was stop- ped at Circle City by nearly two hundred armed men and forced to leave the larger part of the cargo there. Captain Hansen of the Alaska Commer- cial Company, who went to Dawson, called a meeting. He advised all men with suf- ficient supplies to start for Fort Yukon, 325 miles below Dawson City, and about 50 miles below Circle City. ‘The mounted police were authorized to force the depart- .re of the men without winter outfits, and the companies’ boats carried down 150 men. During the next few days nearly 200 men arrived over the Dyea and Skaguay trails, and it is claimed that the larger part of these had only supplies for from one to three months, * Views of a Correspordent. SAN FRANCISCO, November 29—The Call has received via steamer City of Seat- tle a letter from its cnrrespondent, Sam Wall, who succeeded in reaching Dawson City on September 25 after a.perilous trip in a small boat from Fort Yukon. He was the first to give the news to the people of Dawson of the failure of the relief ships to get up the river. » The gold seekers, he says, are confronted with famine, and there will undoubtedly be intense suffering during the winter months. The dominion police have an- nounced their intention of seiaing all super- fluous stores and especially {those belong- ing to gamblers and the disteputabie ele- ment, and dividing them pro rata among the famishing citizens. ,, Everything possi- ble will be done to alleviate the distress.

View of Chicago Trades Union on Present Economic Conditions. CHICAGO, November 29.—By a vote of 41 tod the delegates of the Central Trades and Labor Union placed themselves on rec- crd as being opposed to further restriction of immigration. The question was dis- cussed for over three hours. A resolution was passed which sets forth that restric- tion of immigration is in direct contrayen- tion to the progressive spjrit of the age and is a reactionary attempt to check the progress movement of the wage earners of all countries. The resolution further held that immi- gration is not responsible for the present condition of wage workers in this or any other country, and the industrial and com- mercial crisis from which this country has been suffering for several years is the re- sult of certain economic conditions which | @ Steamship line at Dundee. bas fallen during preceding twel THE OFFICIAL WEATHER MAP.

Two of Her Sailors Killed in Gale. PHILADELPHIA, November 29.—The British bark Juteopolis, which arrived last night from Greenock, Scotland, had a long and tempestuous voyage, and two of her sailors were killed. The Juteopolis left Greenock September 28 in ballast to load a cargo of petroleum at Philadelphia for Japan. The first day out she ran into a storm and an exceptionally heavy sea. On the third day all hands were engaged in shortening sail, when James Bruce, a young naval ap- prentice, and Carl Brunner, a German sea- man, were knocked from the mizzen top- sail yard by a sudden blast of wind forcing the heavy sail against them. Both fell head foremost to the deck and were in- stantly killed. They were burled at sea the next day.

From the New York Tribune. The situation at Lisbon continues so criti- eal that the royal yacht is lying, pro- visioned and with banked fires, in the Tagus, a short distance from the shore, ready for any emergency that may arise. That shows how serious are the appre- hensions of the king and queen of some revolutionary outrage, which may compel them to seek refuge, with their childrea, en board the yacht. It is likewise asserted in court circles that the majority of the royal valuables, such as plate and jewels, are kept on board this yacht, which is manned by officers and sailors on whom the king can rely absolutely. The precaution is wise, since the first thing that a revo- lutionary mob 1s in the hagit of doing is to sack the royal palaces. FINANCIAL. C. T.
