Catholicism In America.
Baltimore. Nov. 1,.—The twelve
hundred celegates to the first congress
of Catholic !aymen of the United states
* as called to order tbortly before noon
today -<y W. J. Ouhan of Chicago
Every seat in the hall was filled and the
galleries crowded. The first applause of
the assembly w-«s elecited by the entrance
of exvGovemor John Lee Carroll with
Archbishop Ireland of St Paul. Arch-
b shop Ireland briefly asked levine
blttsiugina few remarks introducing
Caroll as temporary chairman. He
mentioned the name of Pope Leo, and
iustantly there ' was hand clapping and
cheers all over the hall, which soou gr w
into turmuituous enthusiasm. The
scene was a notable one
as the delegates swung their hats and
shouted greeting to the Roman pontiff.
Carroll, on taking tbe chair, said.
"It may be that the quedion will be
asked, bv what uuthority is this conirresa
held, and under what law does it assern*
ble? In reply to this, we would suggest
that this is by the sanction of his emin-
ence the cardinal archbishop of Baltimore
and the dist nguisbed prelates that dow
surround us, and by virtue of the author-
ity of the constitution of the United
Slates. This congress has but two great
purposes at heart: the glory and progress
of the Cathol'C churcn, and the continued
prosperity of the American people."
The following cable from Rome was
read:
Cardinal Gibbons, Baltimore.—Having
made known to our holy father the ex-
pressions of devotion you conveyed to
bim ou the part of the Catholic congress
to be held in Baltimore, his holiness
graciously bids me say that he most ef
fectionately imparts his blessing to all
members."
(S gned) M, Card Rampoll.
Daniel Dougherty, of New York, was
invited by tbe chairman to address
congress pending the apoointmeut of
committees. Tbe famous orator was in
his btst voice and form. He was given a
perfect ovation by the congress Dough-
erty 8uid: "In colonial times the Catho-
lics suffered direst cruelties in compari-
son with which slaves were high-
bred guests; that the only re-
ligious martyra in America were
Caiuolics. iney were spurned, slan-
dered and vi'iried, and the h ghest
honors of the republic denied them by
prejudice as strong as constitutional eu-.
actment. Th* consolation of religion
was denied to sick and suffering catholics
in many institutions of charity and to
criminals in prison. They could call
themselves preeminently American, ror
wiihout Catholicism America today would
be unknown. That lioerty whicti is the
freedom to worship God was established
in America by Catholics alone. Though
the growsh of the country had been mar-
velous that of Catholicism outstripped it.
Ftom a despised people they became a
mighty power The Catholic cburch
• the protestor of learning.
It was she who saved class c literature
Irom ruius wi h the Romin empire. On
the eve of the celebration of the four
hundredth anniversary of the discovery
of America it is proper to say that all the
tremen tous results achieved therefrom
are due directly to the Rnman Catholic
cuurch alone. Protestantism was un-
known when America was dlscoveerd
and it whs a Ca holic Columbus who
conceived the mighty thought, a monk
who encouraged him, a cardinal interced-
ed with the sovereigns of Spain and a
Catholic king and queen made his expe-
dition possible.
It was to spread the Catholic faith that
the ribk was run and it wis the standard
of Catholic which was tirat planted on
these shores, and for over one hundred
years tbe only christian to worship on the
continent was the Catholic.
All through Dougherty's address, there
were outbreaks of cheers and at the con-
clusion, the dignitaries crowded around
him and rtook him warmly by the hand
several other speeches were made by
prominent Catholics,
Cardinal Gibbons entered accompanied
by Caidinal Tascheran, of iCanada, and
both were formally introduced to the
congress Cardinal Gibbons addressed
the delegates,welcoming them in h's own
name and that of the people of Baltimore
irrespective of creed. The temporary
organization was made permanent, and a
short recess followed. On reassembling
the committees were announced, and the
regular work of congress now began, by
the reading of the first paper, "Catholic
Congress," by Historian John Shea, of
New York. The next paper was by
Major Henry F. Brownson, of Detroit,on
"Lay Action in Church."
Charles J Bonahsrte eloquently dia-
cussed the independence of the Holy See
the necessity for which be enthusiaatics
ally npbeld He eavflla vivid sketch of
the changing conditions from the time of
Charlemauge to the moment of the Ital-
ian government's civil deprivation of the
pioua of all temporal authority and the
enactment of tbe law of guarantee, where-
by the Italian parliament piotesatd to
guard the papal rights He thought that
a more important feature than this guar-
antee should be made the subject of a
treaty between all tbe great powers,
makimr it world wide.
In the course of his remarks great
cheering was elicited by the declaration
that, whether the o pe be an exile or
captive, a subtect he cannot be.
Adjourned until tomorrow.
Th* Cronin Cu«,
Chicago, Nov. 11.—In the Cronin case
this morning witnesses were introduced
who testified that Kunz last spring went
under the name of Kaizer, and other wit-
nesses testified to acts showing intimacy
between Kunz and Coughlin and Kunz
and O'Sullivan.
Gus Klare. a tinner, testified to having
soldered up a galvanized iron box 14*2#
inches for Burke two days after the mur-
der. Burke objected to witn< ss removing
a cord from the box which held the lid
on. In the course of conversation Burke
s<id that Cronin was a spy and ought to
be killed.
The states attorney endeavored, with-
out success, to show by Walsh'a testi-
mony that Burke was without money of
his own in Joliet, but that shortly after-
wards he was furnished with plenty of
money and with a ticket for Europe and
able to pay counsel to fight his extradi-
tion.
Joseph O'Brien, senior guardian of a
Cronin camp of Clan na Gael, told about
a conversation be bad with Beggg and
others two or three days afier Cronin's
disappearance. Beggs expressed the
opinion that Cronin would turn up all
ritrht, and Dennis Ward, who was with
him, said he thought Cronin had run
away with some woman.
Cronin s clothes and surgical instru-
ments, found in the Lakeview sewer last
Friday, were then exhibited and the
sewer cleaner told about finding them
Mrs. Conklin at whos^ house Cronin
lived, identified the clothes and other
articles as Cronin's property.
Vast Train Service.
Chicago, Nov. 11.—The first official
intimation of the reported traffic arrange-
ment between tbe Chicago & Northwest-
ern and Uni n Pacific railroads comes
from the former today. Tbe companies
have formed a combination for the hand
ling of freight and passengers and tbe
joint through service is to be knowu as
tbe Chicago Union Pacific & Northwest-
ern line, and a fast limited mail train ser
vice will be established November 17,
whereby, passengers and mail will
be carried through from Chicago
to Portland and San Francisco, making
the time from Chicago to Portland
in eighty-three hours, and from Cnicago
to San Francisco in eighty-five hours
This will reduce the time heretofore
made on the Chicago and Western, as
well as the New York and Eastern mail
to Portand, seven hours and to San Fran-
cisco twelve hours. The arriving time
of the new train being 6:40 a. m. at Port-
land, and 10:45 a. m. at Sac Francisco
instead of in tbe evening as heretofore,
makes the practical delivery of mails 24
hours quicker. A similar reduction in
time, east bound, is made on the
passenger and mail which now reaches
Chicago at 8:30 a. m.
Hostile Arub*.
London. Nov. 11.—Since news arrived
of the homeward march of Stanley and
Einin Pasha and h»8 party, and of the re-
ported disaster to Dr. Peters' relief expe-
dition, the British East African company
has been rapidly picking up all the best
available men to send out to protect < its
territories from raids of rebellious natives.
Judging from the activity displayed in
securing fighting men, the British East
African company mu«t anticipate having
to do some heavy work in order to hold
its territory against the incursion of
Arabs. The larest news from that region
indicated that all the native element was
up in arms, and are, for the moment,
brethren in the common cause to drive
out detested foreigners. This serious up-
rising on the part of the natives, is attrib
uted to Captain Wissmann's attempt to
increase the sphe,e of German influence
by exterminating tbe people.
Bonner's Hobby.
Nkw York, Nov. 11—Robert Bonner
has purchased the great three year old
Sunal from Governor Sanford, of Califor-
nia. Sunal on Saturday last trutted a
mile in the unparalelled time, for three
year old, in 2:10| Bonner's offer for'
Sunal was made and was accepted by
Governor Sanford before she made this
great performance. Sunal has also tbe
fastest record made by a two year old,
she having tro't l««t vir in 2:1S.

Hnow Storm safferer*.
Tuinioao, Colo., Nov. 11.—Various
parties who spent ten days in the snow
blockade between Emery Gap and FoN
s >m. arrived here today. They report
the sufferiug to men and animals fully
as great as was shown in former reports
Patrick Casey, an engineer, was eleven
days making the run from Trinidad to
Texine and return. Two daya aad
nights he was without food. One
meal he made on a jack rabbit
caught in the snow. Seventy-five men
shoveling snow at Mt. Dora, were cut off
from food two days and nights. They
j?ot some sheep out of the snow drifts
and roasted and ate them. A delayed
passenger train was cut off from eating
stations three days and they drew on the
express car for its food supplies, the
laoorers who shoveled snow, when hun
gry. tapped freight cars containing canned
goods, withan iron chisel and other tools. A
hungry man would knock a hole in a can
of C'jrn or tomatoes a^ud then drink the
can empty. Sometimes th^ food was
frozen, but it vent among men who
were so hungry. Two live goats were
being shipped in a caboose, but the bun.
gry men cut their throats and aie them
raw. The report says, a sick man trav..
eling with two children lay on his back
two days helpiess. He had only
crackers for nourishment. A
sheep grower near Ute creek, a Mr. Gar-
cia, is reported to hava lost 5000 sheep
from a flock of 8000.
Engineer Lyon said that he saw more
real destitution during the ten days in
this snow blockade than in all his life
before. The road was opened with"
snow plow, but remained open only ~
few hours, as this morning's snow and
wind blocked the cuts again and the
passenger train due here from
the south this forenoon, is stuck in the
snow tonight. Altogether, the blizzard
has been a terrible oue. None of us ever
saw or heard of such a now in Southern
Colorado or New Mexico. It was a
Dakota storm that got off its range and
struck an unsuspecting people. President
Morgan Jones, of the Fort Worth Road,
was himself a passenger from the scene
of the blockade today.
The Queeusmore'a Fat*.
New York, Nov. 11.—Captain Brooks,
of the steamer Arizona, from Liverpool,
arrived today and reports that at 1 p. m.,
on November 5th at latitude 51, 09. long-
itude 25. 17, he sighted the steamer
Queensmore bound east, flying the signal
"I am on fire "
The Arizona stopped and Capt. Brooks
offered any assistance in bis power. The
Queensmore's captain asked him to tow
her east to a port,but this.Captain Brooks
said, was impossible. He stood by for an
hour; the Queensmore then signalling
"Go on," the Arizona continued her voy-
age. The cable has since brought the
intelligence that the Queensmore went
down in a fog Friday, having struck rocks
at Three Castle's Head.off the Irish coast.
She had a crew of seventy-five men and
a cargo valued at $500,000, including 895
head of cattle. All of the crew were
saved. She was owned by W. H. Johns
son & Co., of Liverpool, and was bound
from Baltimore to Liverpool.
