At the same time is held the annual meeting of the board of di rectors' of the Catholic university and as thev have kindlv requested me to remain a director I will consider It my duty to attend the annual meeting whenever I possibly can. "The congregation of the propagan da has superintendence of all the mis sionary countries In the world. Includ ing the United States. The congrega tion of sucred studies has superintend ence of all th Catholic colleges and universities in the world. Naturally It will be especially with the work of the church in the United States that I will be consulted and therefore it shall always be my life work to pro mote the welfare of religion in Ameri ca. My appointment t consultor of those two uunvrvmllons was offered me In the orlglnul letter of the Holy Fther dated Sept. 15. That offer I an as sured holds good, and other honors are now most kindly ottered to me about which I prefer to say nothing. "It Is by no means the ofter of place or dignity that takes me to Rome. It Is simply my tllial loyalty and devoted obedience to the Holy Father, he hav ing (or the second time most affection ately expressed his paternal desire that I shoul I have my peaceful retirement nnd still consecrate my energies to the church's welfare. I should be ashamed of myself If I hesitated for a moment to comply." When asked concerning the publish ed cablegram from the Cardinal secre tary of state to Msr. Martinelll duted yesterday Bishop Keane said: "I very much regret that there has been a 'bureau of mischief at work In this country and in Europe, founded for th manufacture nnd dissemination of pernicious rumors of all sorts against certain distinguished Catholic prelates In this country. I am delighted to see the crushing blow inflicted upon them by the telegram from Cardinal llama cello to the Apostolic Delegate. I hope tlr? telegram will convince the Ameri can public that they ought never again pay any heed to the fabrications of the 'mischief bureau.' " AN EDITOR COWHIDED.

IN THE CASE OP OSCAR VESPEDES The Court of Matnnias Decides That the American Citizen Must Be Handed Over to a Military Tribunal for TrialParty of Rebels Re pulsed at Fort Union. Havana, Dec. 4. The people of Ha vana are still In theUlark so far as the movements of General Weyler are con cerned. If the authorities have heard anything definite from him since he went Into camp near Los Palaclos they are Ignorant of his present position, but that they know he is carrying out In detail the plan of campaign pre pared before he left Havana. Rumors regarding Maceo are many, but little attention Is paid to them. The only definite news from the province of Plnar Del Rio Is that the commands of Generals Melqulzo and Inclan. have had encounters with the rebels. The fight in the Gobernadora Hills yesterday, mention of which was made In these dispatches last night, was be tween Oeneral Inclan's command and a band of rebels. No details of the en gagement have been made public, and It Is not known which side was victori ous. REBELS REPITLSED.

C, Doc. 4. The report of the director of the mint shows In elaborating details the working of the mints and essay olfices during the fiscal year 18, together with statistics of foreign countries relative to he pro duction, coinage and n.gnetury condi tion of each. The total coinage of gold and silver by the various countries of the world, were as follows: Gold, J'-':tl.OX7,4:i.S; sil ver, $121,610,19; total. $352,67,657, The total metallic stock and uncov ered paier In the world was estimated on January 1, 189U, to be $10,9.!8,GOO,noo. The director recommends that author ity be given the secretary of the treas ury to have experiments made to deter mine the best means of preventing the counterfeiting of silver coinage. At the prevailing price of silver, the dif ference between the bullion and nomi nal value of our silver coins, Is about, one hundred per cent, and this consti tutes u great temptation for the stamp ing of such coins by unscrupulous per sos, afforndlng them an opportunity to place In circulation counterfeit silver coins, at about loo per cent, profit as good as those stamped by the mints, nnd which cannot be distinguished from them, even by experts.

A nothei; lending physician who Inspect ed tho sailor, is of the opinion that Sharkey was "doped" with iodine to bear out Earp's claim of foul. Of all the physicians vho examined Sharkey, but two are Inclined to be lieve that he was struck foul. The purse money had not yet been paid and from present Indications there will be u legal battle which will eclipse the ring encounter. Such men as Adolph Spreckels, Major McLaughlin. Mose Gunst, V. A. Greer. Harrison and Hiram Cook are behind Fitzsim mons and Julian, whife Sharkey's friends are few and Inconsequential. . To add to Fltzsiminon's trouble, suit was instituted against him today by J. J. Hatir on a claim for tsm held In Judgment by Jimmy Carroll, the lightweight. Carroll was one of Fitz slinmon's trainers for his fight with Maher near El Paso.
