HERE'SAPRETTY CHURCHROW Presiding Elder Mooro Meets with a Hot Reoception at Genoa. CITY MARSHALL CALLED TO PROTECT HIM Members of the Organization Refuse to Re: 7.—[Special to Tir Bee.]--Gonoa is stirred as sho has not been since the Chase defaleation. This timo it is # church row. Prosiding Elaer Moore. who recontly raked up some old charges of immorality against Rev. R. K. Piorce, pastor of the Methodist church here, which had been settled during tho administration of Elder Shank, arrived in town Saturday last for tho purpose of holding a quarterly moeting and making arrangements to send anothor minister here. When he arrived at the church he found noarly 100 awaiting him, und & domand was mado that he state the ground of the charge against Mr. Pierce. After attempting to convey the impression tuat the charges were very serious, he was forced to admit that he bad investizated the matter and was convinced that Mr. Pierco was Innocent, but that until so proven he stood convicted snd that he could no longer preach in a Mothodist church. This _started the fun aud Presiding Elder Moore will not soon forget the roasting he received at the hands of an indignant public, irrespective of church or croed. The entire church refused to attend /'service Sunday or to receive tho sacrament from Mr. Moore. Monday a meeting was held at the church to consider the mat Moore attempted to make a speach derogatory to Mr. Pierce's character, but was warned to desist. Ho callod upon the city marshal for protection, and upon being refused, he seized his hat and rushed from the church in alarw, only to oot an officer with a_writ for money which ho was owing one of the bankers and which was long past due. Aftor the withdrawal of Mr. Moore, steps wero taken to ovganize a Baptist church, which noarly all the members pledged them selves to join. The church, which belonged to the Mothodist conference, was stripped ot its entire furniture, including the bell,which is the property of the society here. ‘The membership of the church is about '100, eighty of whom have joined since Mr. Pierce came. Mr, Pierco’ is thought very hiehly of hero, and tho entire community is standing by him. Further developments are eagerly awaited.

This work will bs done through the gener- osity of Ferdinand Schumacber, one of the prominent millers of the Buckeye state. The meal will bo shipped in sacks, cuch labeled as followa: “Countribution of the state of Ne- braska for the Russian famiue cargo.” Cir. culars will be placed i each sack printed in tho Russian language, giving Iull directions for preparing the meal for food. I'he corn will go east to Chicago in two trains—one over the Burlington route and the othor over the Northwestern. From Chicngo the donation will proceed on its journey eastward over the Pennsylvania, Lake Shore and New York Central lines, all of which, together with the Nebraska roads, carry the trains free of charge [n Nevraska, the B. & M., the Union P’acific, Fremout, Elkhorn Missouri Valley and the Mis- souri Pacitic roads have givon every assist- ance possiole in gathering and transporting the corn to a central point.

HE OMARA FROM YESTERDA UNITED STATES AS A MODEL < €BCOND EDITON, | His Holiness the Pope Thinks Hor the Greatest of Republics. OPPOSED TO THE TRIPLE ALLIANCE Utterances of the Holy See Proof Positive That France Wil K port of the Chureh in Any Bmergeney. (Copprighte u James Gordow Bennett.\ ants, Feh, 17, [New York Herald Cable ~Special to Tur Begr. ] ~The Pecit Journal will this (Wednesday) morning publish a declarntion of the pope. An advance copy has been kindly and exclusively communi- cated to the lerald by our courteous contem porary. ILis the substance of a statement made to M. Lallet, the ex-deputy. The au- thenticity of the utterance is proved by the matter and its manner. The dsep importance of the declaration is self evident. “My desire, and the wish of the cburch is, that Franoce should be happy. She is a nation whose pious mind and generous character, though thoy may not always keep her fast in the straight path which is bast suited to her interests, soon repairs all faults and snows her the clear truth, I pray (and I act in ac- cordance with my prayer) that despite all resistanco thero may come to an end the dis- sensious and the sterile quarrels which weakened her. All the citizens should meet upon the ground of leality, Kach individ- ual may cherish his own preferonces, but when in the domain of action nothing else exists but the government which Franco has chosen. The republio is as legitimate a form of governmont as uny." How Amerlea Has Flourished. “T bave just received a communication from the president of the committee of the Chicago World’s fair asking the holy see to take part in that groat Amerioan undertai- ing, and the United States, which constitute arepublic, grow greater every day despite the drawbacks incidental to their bound- loss liverty. There, too, the Catholio church develops witheut clashing with tbe powers, acting in perfect harmony as they should in all lands when neither infringes upon the rights of the other. Liberty is indead the base and tbe foundation of relations between tho civil power and religious conscience, The church aspires before all to liberty. May my voice which speaks with authority be heard and may my aims and attitude uo longee bo dis- turbed by unfounded attacks. “What suits the United States is still more suited 1o republican France. To all Krenchmen who visit me I speak the same langvage. I wish that language o be known by all. Iregret that certain persons in high places should not dare to proclaim publicly* 0s they should, the efforts that I make for the peace and prosperity of your noble nation, which I regard éver as the eldost daughter of the church. In this course I persist, and [ encourage all who enter on it steadfastly to nelp me in my task. holic € *“The church should keep to its true mis- sion. It should reform souls, incuicate the spirit of self sacritice and devotion. The church shou'd take an interest in the condi- tion of the weak. My assertion of the rights of workingmen should facilitate and_hasten the restoration of internal peace and diminish the insiguificant minority which strives to disturb the pubiic mind and prevent union in_ your country —a union indispensable to the fulfillment of its high destinies. Thauks to her strong constitution, France will rise to her old greatness despite of her foes. I learn with joy that, though sne boAsts such abundant miiltary resources and such valiaut sons, F'rance has not fal- tered in her prudence ana patien will but feee herself from the aissonsions that check her influence; if she will but ab- stain from vain harassing and persecuting, sho will soon regain the conspicuous place ana glorious rank in the world which of right belougs to her.” This language of the pope will make a great impression in France where the adhe- sion of his holiness to the republic Wil cause widespread satisfaction. Europa will now understand that the holy see ds. for France and against the triple alliance. It will no doubt be gratirying to the United States to tind that the sovereign poutiff takes them as a model, Liberty of conscicneo is nowa- days the highest title to glory-a country can produce, The ministry has persuaded M. Carnot to sign the bill authorizing the vote of 8,500,000 france to assuroa proper representation of France at the Coicago World’s fair. At a dinner given yesterday by Herr von Boetticher the ewmperor is understood to have expressed his regret that the state of European polities would prevent his attena- ing the Chicago exhibition, and this although the conclusion of the commercial treaties make peuce more probabie to Europe. Jacques St. CeRe, Mission of the CATHOLIC CONGRESS, Interest Aroused In Kome Over a Letter Written from America on the Subject, Rome, Feb. 16.—At the Catholic congress at Baltimore in 1859 & committee of prelates and laymen was appointed to arrange for a Catholic congress to be held at Chicago 1n connection with the Columbian exposi- tion. The cowmittee was also charged with preparing a program of matiers to be discussed at this congress. Among the members of the committee was Judge E. I. Duone of Obio. Under date of December 10 Mr, Dunne wrote a letter to Mr. Counde B. Pallen, editor of the Church Progress and Catholic World of St. Low giving bis views regarding certain decision of this committee, This letter in somo way came into the hands of Rev. C, Kublman, who symphathized with the views expressed therein, He had the letter put in print and sent copies to all the cardivals, The letter was received here in Rome a fow days ago and has created no littie sensation in ecciesi- asticsl circles, Mr, Kublman prefaces Mr. Dunne's letter with a statewment over his own name to the effect that the decisions reached by the Awmerican prelates with reference to the Catholic cougress, to be held at Chicago, were displeasing to himself, to Messy: Pallen ana Dunne and to many other Cath- olies, The authorities at Rome are thereforo invoked to overrule these decisions. Mr. Dunne's letter gives u review of the history of the commitiee and its meetings. He says that at the Baltimore congress a committee was appointed to Organize a cougress at Chicago. This committee bad meetings at Boston and Now York for the purpose of settling preliminaries, arrang- iug & program, ete. It was makiug harmon- ious progress in these directions until, &v an inauspicious moment, it offered to submit its decisions to the appeal of the archbishops of the church, who would ba assembled at St. Louis on December 1, 1861, In the proposed program of subjects for discussion Mr, Dunne has asserted as questions of vital importance the temporal power, aud the question of Catholic educution.

Corbett was seconded by Jim Daly of Philadelphia, Ho appeared smiling aud confident and was ronnaly cheered. His first William Spillings of Rochestor gloves were weighed four ounces. At the call of time Spillings looked somewhat searod. Fixed Two Very Easily. Round 1-—-After a littly wary feinting Spillings led, touching Corbett’s wind. A clinch followed auring which Corbett struck Spillings twicoin the face which procesding was desorvedly hissed. When they broke Corbett sprang at Spillings and knocked bim down with a right hander on the juw. Spil lings arose ana was promptly knocked down again. Corbett turned ~ and walked to his cofner and Spillings leaped to his feet. Ho jumped down the steps from the ring very lightly and poople were surprised when they found that it had been decided that Spillings was knocked out. Tt was apparent that he had wade 1o effort o guard against the two blows delivered by Corbett and many in the crowd thought it a fake and said 50 in loud tones. Bob Caffrey of Philadelptia was Corbett’s next oppovent. ¥ Was some sparring and Cafirey touched Corbett's nose. as lightning Corbett struck Caftrey with his right behind the ear and then delivored two blows, one on each side of the face. Caffrey dropped on his hands and knees and stayed in that position for ten seconds, during which time he glanced around to see what effect it produced on the uudience. He was declared knocked out and he like wiso leaped with agility to his feet and left thering. ‘There were loud hisses (rom every part of tho garden and more outspoken charges of fake. Lannon Wasn't Fixed, When Joe Lannon of Boston came in to faco Corbett the people yelled “*No faking, no tricks, give it to him, Joe,” By direction of Police Captam Reilly the gloves were changed for nthers weighing five ounces. Round 1—Corbett came up smiling and Uannon watched bim closely. Lanuon did most of the leading, but the first good blow was struck by Corbett with his right on Lavnon's ear. Several clinches followed and then Lannon received a left hander full in the face. Lannon guarded well and fre- quently reccived applause for his work Another clinch followed ana Corbett struck short. Again they clinched and Corbett failed to put in a telling blow. At the end of the round Corbett was fresh, whilo Lan- non was winded. Round 2—Both came up sprightly and Lannon led, faliing short. He led again and a clinch followed. Corbett then landed a hot one with his left on Launon’s face, which drew plood. Another clinen followed acd Lanoon landed on Corbett’s wind and succeeded in geiting well away. After another clinch Corbett got n again on Lannon’s face and swung with his rizht for Lannon’s ear, but wissed. Lan non then did a httle leaatng and landed once more on ¢ orbett’s face after which they clinched, Give and take blows then fol- lowed Lannon landing lightly on Corbett's face. Corbett tried several times to land his right on Lannon’s ear, but the latter’s guara was 100 secure, Couldn't Knock Him Out, Round 3—After considerabie feinting Cor- bott led and the two clinched. Breaking away near the ropes Corvett struck Lanvou against the ropes with a blow in tho faco. He landed a second blow, which Lannon re turned. Then twice in quick succession Corbett got in on Lannon’s face and the lat- ter landad on Corbett's wind. Just at this time Lannon looked rather groggy, but ho wkuarded well and kopt Corbets right band idle. He received anotheron the jaw and thon a clinch followed. Breaking away Cor- bett struck Lannon twice in_the face and in rewurn the Boston boy landed one on Cor bett's wind. Time was called as Corbett was foreing tho fight. Loud apnplause followed the conclusion of the bout. The crowd surged forward and gathered about the ring while, though Lan- non dia not even pretend to bo knocked out, Muldoon declared that Corbett had succeedod in doing what he had set out to do. The promoters of the affair will probably clear ou their venture something liko §10,000. WILL Mexican Mu to 1 Santa F, N.
