Most of them held that he had taken grounds too far advanced,and that he was in dangerot being cut off altogeher from the church., Many of them, too, held that he made a personal at- tack upon the archbishop, although the latter was not mentioned by nume. His remark about a pope walking down Broadway with a stovepipe hat is regarded as a singulat if not contemptuous manner in which to talk about the head of the Catholic church, His remarks, many Catholics said, could never be passed over in silence, and it would soon be heard that Dr. Metilynn had not only been unfrocked, but that he had been expelled from the church altogether, It is doubtful, however, if Archbishop Corrigan notices the supposed attacks II‘]N)II himself. To a reporter Dr. MeGlynn said yesterday: “If the Catholic church, that is to say the ape, speaki cathedra, should condemn he doctrine which L in ecommon with Henry George and others hold respecting private m\'lu‘rshl‘\ in land,then I would repudiate the doetrine.” Y on are reported as having said fn New York that religion would never be quite right until there would be a nnlive who would \\'altlrvduwn Broadway in high hat and frock coat.” That was not quite right.

He Talks of Prospective Tariff Reform and the President. ‘‘GOOD AND GRACIOUS GROVER.'* The Head of the Nation Overworked —He Wants to Please the Peo« ple and Satisfy His Conscience. A Talk With the Speaker., Lovtsvitre, Ky, May 8.—[Special Tele- gram to the Bre]—The Courier-journal prints a long interview with John G. Car- lisle, who arrived here yesterday to attend the comini democratic convention, he re- porter asked: “What do you thiniz of the prospect of a reduction of the tariff by the next con- gress?”? I can only give you my opinion so far as the house is concerned, the senate being a republican body. No one can say with ac- curacy what it is likely to do. I believe the next house will unquestionably pass a bill to reduce very lly the customs’ duties. I do not, howeve pect to see the passage of such a bill as revenue reform democrats would like to have, but I think there will be a substantial reduction. You see, we have now arrived at a point in tarHT agitatio. where the reduction of taxation is absolutely necessary. ‘The large and growing treasury surplus makes it necessary. There is no possible way to eseaps it. All the methods proposed in that direction are for the most part absurdities, ‘The sentiment for a re- duced tariff is growing steadily and rapidly in the northwest and now coupling this growing sentiment with the absolute neces- sity for reduction, I think it requires no powers of political prophecy to assert with confidence that ~the reduction must come. Still, rml\lclnr the taritl must be passed, however, with the help of the republican vote, The defection in our ranks caused by Ran- dall and other protectionists will put” it out of the power of the den ts to pass a tariff ravision bill unless they are aided by tarift reformers from the republiean ranks. 1t will not be difficult to obtain sufticient recruits in y opinion.” “Is there any likelihood that the scheme to repeal internal revenue taxes will be a suc- ces: **I think there will be no repeal of internal taxes, and there certainly ought not to be. Yet it might occur. In the effort to get throu:h a bill reducinz the tariff some com- promise should be made. Under the eir- cumstances with the opposition of the senate and with a division of opinion among demo- cratic representatives a compromise that was fair would be honorable.” “I presume, Mr.Carlisle,” said the reporter, “that Cleveland’s administration is now old enough for intellizent observers to form an nate of it. I would be glad to know you think of it.” Mr. Carhsle—*'President Cleveland given to the country & safe, strong, clean and healthy adminis: tration. The complaint thiat he has not turned out republican oflicehold- ers as rapidly as he should are exaggerated. He has ‘acted, as he honestly believed, for the best interests of the country and his party, and you will find vpon investigation that'he is very strong with the people. He has made us a good president. I think he 18 the most industrious I ever saw. He cer- tainly works too hard, but it all comes from his honest desire to make his administration satisfactory to himself and the people. Mr. Cleveland desires notning more than the approval of his own conscience and the just commendation of the country which he can’t fail to have.” ——— MEN AND MACHINERY. All the Sioux City Carpenters On a Strike—The Cause, Siovx Citry, Ia, May 3.—[Special Tele- gram to the BeE.|—"The expected carpenters’ strike began to-day, most of the union men remaining away from their respective places of work- 'The position taken by the union is statea as follows: **On or about January 1 we notitied the contractors by letter that we wanted to meet them and confer with them regarding the coming season’s work. We met them and informed them of our inten- tion, which was as follows: That on and after May 1 we would consider nine hours a day’s work; that the scale of prices would be §2.25, §2.50 and $2.75, according to the grade ot men. They did not give us any satisfac- tory answer and the meeting was adjourned. Seven weeks ago we again submitted the matter to them but no arrapge- ments ‘were agreed o, Three weeks ago the union appointed a special committee on arbitration to confer with the contractors. The committee tried to make terms with the contractors but could not. ‘They finally reported to the union that they would not comply with the demand and all union men were ordered out on May 1, It is understood the remaining union men will g0 out to-morrow. The reason of the strike among others is the competition with machin- ery work. A leading workman said a large amount of mouldings, ete. are now made by machinery, and a carpenter can now put up as much work in one day as he could hereto- fore in a da{' and a half.” ‘Then the adoption of the nine hour systom will make a demand for ten per cent. more men and give employ- ment to a large number of idle men, Then again & man cannot siand ten hours’ work every day. All this talk of the contractors taking work so low is no excuse. I believe in taking all contracts on the nine hour basis and if so it will make a big thing, 1f they can secure ten hour men at Council Bluffs the wages will range from 50 to $3,00. The fact is the union men will not retrace their steps.” It is probable that some settlement will be made of the matter to-day. ‘I'he contractors were 1n_secret session to-day for the purpose of deciding upon smuns n of action.

Correspondence on the Subject Brought Out in Canada. OTTAWA, Ont.. May 8.—The ministers of fisheries brought down the fisheries corres- pondence this afternoon, It isa bulky vol- ume covering a period from 1804 down to a very recent date, the later dispatches of which are only interesting now. In a dis- pateh transmitted Decomber 5 last by Minis- ter Phelps to the imperial government, Sec- retary Bayard proposed a mixed commission to agree upon a serles of lines separating ex- clusive from common right of fishing on the const, the same to exclude such bays and harbors as are less than ten miles in “width: to agree upon the privilege of entering bays or harbors for other purposes and upon penalties, jurisdiction, ete. Pending definite arrangements there was to be abstention from seizing United States fishing vessels unless found within three miles of the Canadian coast. A copy of this despatch was furnished to Canada, and nn- der date of December 28, Lord Landsdowne forwarded the reply of the Canadian govern- ment. The reply says Bayard's proposal involves the surrender of the exclusive right of ishing in bays which hitherto have been regarded beyond all question in the territory waters of Canada; that Bayard’s prsposal is virtually to the effect that the Dominion government is to submit its conduct in the past and 1ts right in the future to the arbi- tration of a commission without any assur- ance whatnver that the recommendations of of that commission is likely to be accepted by cougress, and that before an enquiry ~ commences it is 1o place ~ upon * record the admission that it has been in the wrong upon almost all the iinportant points in the controversy. Such an admission would involve a public renumaration of substantial and valuable rights and privileges for all time, without any sort of equivalent as compensation. I trust that her majesty’s government, to the’ utmost of its ability, will discourage the United States from pressing the proposals in their present shape, and will avoid any action which might induce the belief that the offer embodied in them is one which deserves a favorable re- ception at the hands of the government ot the dominion. Sir Henry Hollana tele- graphed teply to Lord Lansdowne that her majesty’s government was disposed to think that the best and simplest solution of the present difficulty might be tound if both parties would agree to revert to a condition of things existing under the treaty of Washington, the fisheries being again thrown reciprocally open ana fish and fish product being ain reciprocally admitted duty free: that it would be clcurlfv to the interest of the domin- ion to offer this arrangement without any suggestion of uniary indemnity. Lord Landsdowne telegraphed accepting this sug- gestion, and isbury, communicating to the American government the consent of the imperial authority to a mixed commission, says that pending the termination of the question which it would discuss, wonld be indispensible that United States fishing ves- sels entering Canadian bays and harbors should govern themselves not only according to the terms of the eonvention of 1818, but by the regulation to. which they, in common “with other vessels, are subject while within such waters. Lord Sal- isbury then makes a proposition which has already been widely published and which was commented upon as an evidence of the good will both of Great Britaln and Canada. The instructions to the fishery officertin comn- mand of the tisheries pretection vessels sa the large liberty compmtable with the full protection of Canadian. interests is to be granted United States fiahery vessels in ob- taining shelter, repairs, wood and water. ————— *‘The Death of M rt.'’ NEw Yonk, May 8.—|Special Telegrsm to the Bee.|—The World says: “1t will be a matter of surprisasto the art public of New York and of the eountry to koow that Munkacshy’s ghqc painting of “The Death of Mozart,” which is generally considered by European critics as the strongest and most successfal work of the Hungarian master, has been in the city for some three weeks and it is now duly framed and ready for ex- hibition.

This titled gen< tleman is of Wallachin exvaction. He had been living luxuriously in this city up to the time of his disappearance with a pretty ballet dancer named Horti. Mlle. Horti had expensive and artistic tastes so had the prince but he had very little money to in< dulge them with. Under the auspices of hig light-footed enamorata the prince was intro- duced to various tradesmen in Vienna. One, Herr W-—, a fashionable bronze and fancy goods dealer, was weak enough to give him credit but on presenting a bill tor 315 floring tohis tocratic customer he was told to calk again. Deing pressed very hard for settles ment, the prince wag good enough to give him his acceptance, pavable at the Hoteh Descapucines on July 11, 1851, Meanwhile the prince vanished trom the boulevard, and on the presentation of the bill at the aps pointed place and time it was dishonored.
