NEW POLISH CHURCH.
formal Transfer of tlio Old Kvangrllcal
Property Made,
Saturday afternoon a formal transfor of the
old Evangelical church property on West
Cherry street was inude to Joseph Rudnlckl
and Frank L1110, 11 commlttco appointed to
represent tho members of St. Casimer's
I'ollsh Konian Catholic church oil North
Jardin street who havo decided to forui a
congregation of their own. The prico paid
for tho property was $0,700.
Tho new edlfico will be christened tho St.
Stanislaus I'ollsh Itonian Catholic Church,
No alterations will be mado in tho building
for tho present, oxcept that a cross will be
placed on tho roof and an altar erected. As
soon as tho tenants in the basement vacato
that part of tho building will bo converted
into a parish school and a hall for tho socie
ties connected with the church to uso for
meetings
Thoro are llvo socictlos counocted with the
old church and fun r of them will withdraw
to join the. new congregation. In fact the
bulk of the purchase money for tho now
church has been contributed by these organi
zations. They aro tho Natioual Guards of
Warsaw, St. Casinicr and St. John Societies,
Polaski Citizens' Society and the Kosciusko
Guards. The combined membership is about
500, so that witli tho families of the mem
bers and many who do not belong to tho so
cieties but will join in tho new movement
the congregation of tho nuw church will
start with a long membership roll.
Tho opening of the church will depend
upon the promptness with which a priest. Is
assigned to it. Tho committee in charge
waited upon Archbishop Kyan, of Philadel
phia, to have a priest assigned to them and
tho Archbishop referred tho matter to Itev.
Father Hints, of Manch Chunk. To-day
Messrs. Joseph Kudnieki, Frank Luto and
Michael Makerawicz went to Mnucli Chunk
to confer with Itev. Hiues 011 tho appoint
ment. In answer to a question as to why the
congregation split one of the committeemen
told a Hkkami reporter that, in tho fiist
place, the old church is too small for the
whole congregation and no attempt has been
mado to enUrgo it. Secondarily, tho pastor.
Kov. Lcnarkiewicz, last fall bought property
at tho rear of tho church and commenced the
erection of a parochial school. Here the
relations of tho pastor and a large portion of
tlie congregation became strained.

SPANIARDS TALKING WARLIKE I
An Ex-Captain General of Cuba, Presuma
bly Campos, Predicts That War
Between This Country and
Spain Is Now Inevitable.
Washington, Vol). 2S. The usual Sun
day quiet was not broken yesterday
by nny Important developments in con
nection with the Maine disaster. Cap
tain Crowninshlold, chief of the navi
gation bureau, came to his office In tho
navy department to open the depart
ment mall and a few important tele
grams. The state department received
nothing from Consul General Lee dur
ing tho day, nnd the only dispatch of
consequence reaching that department
was from Minister Ilockhlll, at Athens,
briefly stating that an attempt had
been made on the life of King George,
but without serious results. Five shots
were fired by the would-be assassin,
none of them taking effect.
Up to 6 o'clock the dispatches of the
navy department were taken to the
officials of tho department and were
not regarded as I of sufficient conse
quence to send to the secretary. Mr.
Long said the coirt of Inquiry would
now proceed with its work at Key
West, examining the witnesses there
in accordance with Its original plans.
No definite Information had been re
ceived as to how much time would be
taken with the inquiry there or what
the next step would be. Mr. Long
stated that tho department was today
in possession of no more information
on the cause of the disaster than It
was Immediately after the occurrence,
and that no evidence had been received
up to the present time showing that
the disaster was caused by design.
During the afternoon the secretary re
ceived a call from Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt, who assured him that an
examination of th "Md said to show
mines In Havana 'harbor csclosed that
no Buch mines weye on the itUp.
Senor Du Dose, tne Spanish -harge

minister will be presented soon after
his arrival, and It Vs expected that his
first attention will be Given to the new
commercial treaty Ibetwcen the United
States and Spain, ,wlth particular ref
erence to Cuba. 'Minister Woodford
has been earning on the negotiations
with the authorities at Madrid, and
they are well along! toward completion.
Beyond the foregone dispatch Senor
Du Bosc received ;no news from Ha
vana or Madrid. JIe expressed satis
faction at the mor,0 conservative tone
of public sentImentLwlthln tfae Inst few
days. Press repfrts from Madrid
stated that the authorities were Jubi
lant over the receIDt of Important fa
vorable Information from Havana. Mr.
Du Boso could shPa no 1'Bht on the
nature of this infi!rmatlon- In other
quarters, however, tne Impression pre
vailed that this information did not
refer to the Malnt inquiry, but con
cerned the general conduct of the In
surrection In Cuba. There have been
strong indications Jf 'ate that the au
tonomist cabinet, linger the leadership
of Govin, who is the recognized force
of that body, woulc1 endeavor to make
terms with the Sep,arat'st wing and In
turn secure the co-PPeratIn ot 'be in
eurgents In a movement to conclude
the war. How far tllls Is Possible Is
not known here, alt'10UGh it has been
expected that Gov!" would succeed In
effecting a reconcl)laton- There has
been added reason for tllIs belief within
tho last few days .owing to the fierce
attacks made on Gpvln by some of tho
irreconcilable elemt!nta-

"I never entertained a doubt that If

A PRIEST
ATTACKED
Burslars Enter the Lithuanian Catholic
Church and Parsonage.
PREDICAMENT OF REV. ABROMAITIS
Two Men Present Revolvers at His Breast
While He Lay In Bed-Tue Priest
Gives the Details of the Rob
bery That Followed.
St. George's Lithuanian liotnan Catholic
church, at tho corner of Jardin and Chorry
streets, and the adjoining parsonage was
visited by burglars early yesteiday morning
and the pastor in charge, Kev. Peter Abro
maitis, had a thrilling experience with them.
The church was first visited. Very little of
valuo was taken, but ample evidence of des
ecration was left behind.
Kev. Abromaitis sleeps in the front room
on the second story of the parsonage. He
says it was about threo o'clock yesterday
morning when he was nwakeuod by foot
steps in tho hallway 011 the second Moor and
next saw a mau peeping into tho bedroom.
Ho was enabled to see this by tho reflection
of a candle. Kev. Abromaitis thought It
was his curate, Itev. Milukas, walking about
and cried out, "What are you doing? Why
don't you go to bed?"
The priest had hardly asked tho question
when two men rushed from the hallway to
the bedside and both presented revolvers at
his breast, ouo saying in a sharp whisper,
"Keep quiet, or wo'll fill you full of
bullets!"
Kev. Abromaitis was almost paralyzed by
tho shock the surprlso occasioned, but soon
became resigned to the situation anil asked
with as much calmuossns he could command,
"What do you want?"
"Where is your money ?" demanded one of
the men, both still holding tho muzzles of
their revolvers at the breast of the priest.
The reverend victim told tho burglars that
they would find what they wero looking for
in the pockets of his pantaloons, which hung
on the door of a closet. O110 of the burglars
proceeded to make a search, whilo tho othor
kept guard on the priest with tho revolver
presented.
Upon concluding tho search tho burglar
asked "Where is your watch ?" and was di
rected to the place where the clergyman's
timepicco was secreted. Tho piece was
quickly confiscated and this question plied,
"Have you money in tho safe?"
Tho safe is in tho olllce of tho parsonage,
which is in thu front room on tho first floor.
Itev. Abromaitis said there was nothing in
it, but tho Inquiring burglar seemed to doubt
him and said, "Wo can blow tho safe open.
o havo more men down stairs."
Kev. Abiomaitis replied, "It is not neces
sary to do that. I can open the safe for that
matter, but there is no money in it," where
upon the burglar standing guard said to his
I dou t think thero is any money in the
safe." This seemed to satisfy tho other, who
then turned and said to Kov. Abromaitis,
who was still lying upon his back in
bed, "You remain quiet for twenty miuutos.
If you attempt to give au alarm we will como
uacK. Viowill he down stairs. ' Tho two
burglars then left tho bedroom and soon after
Kov. Abromaitis heard hasty retreating
lootsteps. lie then arose aud aroused tho
curate and housekeeper from their slumbers,
who bad not been disturbed by the in
truders. From tho sounds of footsteps he
hoard below Kev. Abromaitis believes there
wero more than two burglars in tho house.
On their departure tlio visitors took with
them a gold watch and $17 in cash belonging
to Kov. Abromaitis and au overcoat, a Prince
Albert coat and a breviary owned by the
curate, Kev. Milukas. Tho total valuo of
the articles stolon was about $150. The gold
watch was an open-faced ouo with tho
initials "P. it." engraved on tho back. The
robbers overlooked $30 in cash that was in
tlio vest of Kev. Abromaitis which hung on
tlio closet door.
Tho burglars got into the par.souago by
forcing up one of the side windows and they
left the houso by tho sumo opening. The
caudle they used to find their way through
the rooms was one tikcn from tho churcli.
Drops of wax on tho carpets showed whore
the visitors had stopped to investigate and
cousult. On the lloor of the office in tho
parsonago was found a gold and silver
ciborium belonging to Kev. Milukas. It had
been carried fiom the church. Tho cover
was missing. Entrance to tho church was
gained by forcing entrance at tho door on the
north side of tlio building. The tabemaclo
was found forced open aud other petty acts
of desecration wero discovered, but aside
from tho ciborium found in the parsonage
aud a caudle, nothing was missing.
Kev. Abromaitis says that in tho dim
caudle light he was ablo to identify hut one
of the men who stood at his bedside and ho
would know him should ho meet him again.
The clergyman doscribed tho party as being
a short man between 20 and 23 years of ago
and having black hair. Tho other man was
tall, but that is tho ouly description that can
bo givon. Both men spoke in English. It is
evident that tho parties knew something of
the parsonage, as thoy knew whore to find
tho priest asleep aud did not disturb tho
curate, or his room.
