Areht>l*lio|> Ireland Say* It r»vp»lli« Hay to an Agreement Ah to I*lillll> pliip Friar*. St. Paul, July 23.—Archbishop Ire laiid, in an interview yesterday re viewed the progress of the negotia tions conducted between Judge Tuft and the Vatican, and took to task cer tain Catholic organizations that had assumed to question the fairness of the administration toward their co religionists. The archbishop said: "Yes, the news from Home is quite satisfactory, and,l am sure, quite correct. Private advices coming to me from the most reliable source confirm, in all respects, the dispatches given by the press. The sovereign pontiff and other Roman authorities are delighted with Gov. Taft person ally and with the negotiations in progress between him and the Vati can. Reports sent out by the corre spondents of certain London papers to the effect that the pontiff was dis pleased with the commission of cardi nals appointed to treat with Gov. Taft were unfounded. The pontiff assure 1 (jov. Taft that he was happy at. the results so far obtained, and that he was confident the negotiations begun in Rome would be the starting point of a complete and satisfactory solu tion of the question under discussion. "There can be no doubt that the active co-operation of the Vatican is now secured to the American govt rn ment in its task of pacification in th- Philippines, and that in the results to come the administration a> Wash ington will have ample reason to fe licitate itself for having sent Gov. Taft to Rome. "And now if is to be hoped there will be among a certain class of Catholics in America a cessation of declarations such as we have had re cent occasion to hear of regarding re ligious matters in the Philippines. The pope teaches these Catholics to trust the American government, as they seemingly have been heretofore unwilling to do. In his conversation with Gov. Taft he expressed tne high est este. 4 in for American methods of treating church matters, and re marked that he had more than once pointed towards the United States as setting an example well worth copy ing. "The agitation, such as it was, in certain Catholic quarters did no honor to those who participated in it. As is now proven, they spoke and acted without due knowledge, and, certainly, without proper regard for the government of their country. They should first have been absolute ly certain that injustices had been done to their co-religionists and, next, if injustices had been done, they should have sought a remedy for them by appeal to the proper of ficials before raising in public irritat ing clamors. "His words ought to signify some thing to those who profess to take him as their guide. At any rate the direction of Catholic affairs is his business, not that of irresponsible church societies or newspaper edi tors; and when he informs Catholics that any one matter is in his hotids, they ought promptly to step aside, and allow him to have charge of it. The question of religion in the Phil ippines is now his own, and it should be considered as such. "There should have been no haste to lay blame upon the government which has been doing its best to bring order out of chaos, and, above all, no charges should have been made against the intentions of the government. It was rankest, rashness and rankest injustice to intimate that the government intended to proselyte in the Philippines, or to do aught to detach the inhabitants from the Catholic faith." ALLEGED FORGERS. Are Said to Have .Hade Uo<;iia ICall road Tickets Arreated In Chicago, Chicago, July 26. —A band of alleged* forgers of railroad tickets whose operations, it is charged, have extend ed from coast to coast, was broken tip Friday by special agents of the Chicago local passenger bureau and the central police.

Executive Council of Federation ot l.ubor F.ndorses miners' Appeal for Financial Aid—f>sH,ooo Received In One Hay-Strikers Feel Fncouragcd. Indianapolis, July 24.—Secretary Wilson, of the United Mine Workers, on Wednesday received a check foi $50,000 for the strike fund from the Illinois organization. This was for warded by him immediately to the anthracite field. The Illinois miners have, within four weeks, given the national organization SIOO,OOO for strike funds, and still have nearly $500,000 in reserve. This donation, it is said, is the largest ever received for a strike. Wilson has received notice from individuals of checks for as much as SI,OOO that are now on their way to headquarters, indicating that the appeal to the public for funds has been effective. The total donations received yes terday were $58,000. Word was re ceived at headquarters from Presi dent (iompers, of the American Fed eration of Labor, that the executive council of thut organization, in ses sion at San Francisco, has endorsed the appeal of the mine workers for financial aid. This will have the ef fect of bringing in additional contri butions, it is thought. Wilkesbarre, Pa., July 2L—Tn re ply to the charge made by T. 1). Xich olls, president of District So. 1, United Mine Workers, that agents of the coal companies are circulating among the strikers and trying to per suade them to apply in a body for aid when the relief fund is opened, in the hope that the defense fund may be wiped out in a short time, local coal operators say that they have no knowledge that any of their repre sentatives are connected in any way with the strikers relief. One opera tor said it was immaterial to the mine owners to whom the relief was dis tributed, or who gets it. At strike headquarters none of the district sub-treasurers seemed to be disconcerted over the statement is sued by some of the presidents of the coal carrying roads that they ex pect the striking miners to become discouraged before long and then make a rush togo back to work. National Board Member John Fallon is authority for the statement, that the strikers are by no means discour aged, but, on the contrary, now that they are to receive assistance from the bituminous brethren, are very much encouraged.

Counsel for the imprisoned miners are preparing for habeas corpus pro ceedings in the United States circuit court of appeals at Richmond, Va., alleging Judge Jackson had no juris diction in the cases of "Mother" Jones and her associates. Indianapolis, July 25.—Secretary W. B. Wilson, of the miners, received a telegram yesterday from I'arkers burg, informing him that a warrant had been issued there for his arrest on the charge of making inflamma tory speeches in disregard of the court's injunction.

Interesting Statistics the Insurrection In tlie I'll 111 ppl lies There Were tlie Kiieniy. Washington, July 24.—Maj. James Parker, of the adjutant general's of fice, has compiled some interesting statistics regarding tlie insurrection in the Philippines. There were 2,561 engagements with the enemy, be tween February 4, 1809, the date of the Manila battle, and April 30, 1902, fixed as ihe virtual downfall of the insurrection. The larger proportion of these tights were attacks from ambush on the American troops, or skirmishes in which only small de tachments took part. "In almost no case in these en gagements." say Maj. Parker, "did American troops surrender, or have to retreat or have to leave their dead and wounded in possession of the enemy, notwithstanding that in many cases tlie percentage of loss was high." The number of troops that have been transported to the Philippines and have arrived there up to July 16 last was 4,135 officers and 123,50U men. The average strength for the period of insurrection, was approximately 40,000. Maj. Parker summarizes the casual ties of the American army as follows: Killed or died of wounds, 69 of ficers and 936 enlisted men; deaths from diseases, 47 officers and 553 en listed men; deaths from accidents, six officers and 125 enlisted men; drowned, six officers and 257 enlisted men; suicide, 10 officers and 72 en listed men; murdered, one officer and 91 enlisted men. Total deaths, 139 of ficers and 4,016 enlisted men. Wound ed. 190 officers and 2,707 enlisted men, a total of 2.597. Killed and wounded and deaths other than by disease, 252 officers and 4,188 enlisted men; total 4,470. A large proportion of the deaths by drowning occurred in action, or in active operations against the enemy. Maj. Parker makes the percentage of killed and wounded to the strength of the army 9.7.

London, July 26.—The fullest satis faction is expressed at King Ed ward's progress, but, as his majesty is still unable to walk, projects are be ing mooted for the adoption of means to avoid exertion by him on corona tion day. \iuong other suggestions is one that, the king sleep at tin- dean ery of Westminster the night previ ous to the day of his crowning and enter the abbey by another door, in order that he may avoid the long walk of 400 feet from the entrance of the abbey to the throne, also that modifications lie made in the corona tion ceremony so that he may avoid wearing the heavy investiture robes and sword.

'Boston, July 25.—Nearly 4,000 demo crats gathered at Nantasket yester day and participated in the "har mony" meeting, arranged by the New England Democratic league, the new political organization which is ex pected to develop its strength in the tall campaign. Mayor I'. A. Collins, of this city, acted as "moderator," as he expressed it, and presented in or der, Edward M. Shepard, of New York; Senator ('armack, of Tennes see, and William J. Bryan, of Ne braska, who expounded and discussed the issues of this campaign to the marked satisfaction of the audience. Col. \V. A. (iaston and Charles S. Hamlin, rival candidates for the democratic gubernatorial nomination in Massachusetts, were both present, while Lewis Nixon, of New York, and Congressman 'Wilson, of that state, and John R. Thayer, of Massa chusetts, were conspicuous among the guests. lion. Henry F. llollis, secretary of the league, who was the active spirit in arranging the meeting, marshalled his forces at the boat, leaving for Nantasket shorN% after 11 o'clock, the party including* all the organiza tion's guests. It took an hour to make the run down the harbor and on arrival the party was escorted to the Rockland house, where a meet ing of the league was held. A recep tion by Mr. Brown, Mr. Shepard and Mr. Carmack followed and then .'iOO members of the league sat down to a banquet in the great dining room of the hotel. Mr. Carmack followed Mr. Shepard and for nearly an hour and a half In* held the attention of his hearers. His discussion of the trust issue brought forth applause which was repeated frequently during his argument on the Philippine question. The presentation of Mr. Bryan de veloped great enthusiasm. Cheers greeted him as he stepped to th.' front of the platform and lie was sev eral times interrupted by demonstra tions of approval. Among other things he said: "In view of the numerous harmony dinners and the discord they have created, it may not lie out of place to consider the basis of harmony. Harmony is but a synomym for ordef and is not the result of chance, but a product of inexorable law. "It is impossible to secure har mony between people of opposite sympathies, and it is a difficult thing to change a man's sympathies. "It requires a political regeneration to make a democrat out of an aristo crat. "There are some who call them selves democrats who have them selves undergone a change which has alienated them from the democratic party or from any party worthy of the name. "To attempt to patch up an ap parent harmony between those who are not in sympathy with democratic purposes is not only a waste of time, but would prove disastrous." TRADE BULLETIN. Scarcity of Fuel Is About tho Only I'nlavorable Feature. New York, July 20. —R. Poisoned Tlielr Arrow* and Spear Tip*. Washington, July 20. —Copies of Manila papers received at the war de partment contain the defense of Maj. Edwin F. Olefin, who was tried by court-martial on the charge of hav ing administered the water cure to I' ilipino natives. The particular case upon which great stress was laid was that of the president? of Igbaras. Olenn acknowledged the a<-t„ but justified it on the ground that he wanted the papers possessed by the presidente and which he obtained by the water cure application. Maj. Olenn in his plea says: "I found very soon after my ar rival in Panay that every man's hand was against us, that every man, wo man arid child in the islands was an enemy, and in my best judgment they are to-day and always will be. Prac tically every presidents and other of ficial was playing double. They or ganized and were members of * se cret society known as the Katipunan, whose avowed objects were to ad vance the cause of "indcpendencia" in any and all ways, and under this high sounding phrase they made use of every means forbidden by the laws of war. These men of peace waged war by killing straggling American soldiers. " I hey made use of poison in the drinks sold to American soldiers. | They poisoned their arrows and the tips of their spears and bolos, to gether with the bamboo tips placed in j the deadly traps that abounded on the trails. They hired assassins to I kill those who were even suspected | of being friendly to the Americans, I and likewise endeavored to have our American officers assassinated. They openly stated in the island of I'ohol that they would gladly sacrifice 2D natives for every American officer as sassinated. They employed corps of assassins, who spread death and ter ror in their wake." Major Olenn gives the details lead ins' l| p to the administration of the water cure to the presidente, the I facts of which were brought out in | the senate Philippine investigation. He declares he "did no more than any other man with good sense would have done." I am convinced that my action resulted in hastening the ter- I niination of hostilities, indirectly ro | suited in saving many hundreds of | lives and directly injured no one." THE COAL STRIKE.
