Wllllnm CoTley n Dnralar, Suet In a Jersey
City Saloon.
Three burglars entered the saloon of Gottlieb
Groezlnger, at Sll Newark avenue, Jcrsay City,
early this morning. Mr. Groezlnger sleeps ln the
saloon. He Is a member of a band of German
sharpshooters, and when he heard noises behind
his bar he used his rifle with good effect. One man
felVwlth a bullet ln hi right shoulder. The others
escaped.
At the station-house the wounded man asked it
would die. He was told that he would.
' Tou had better confess all about this matter
before it la too late," said the Sergeant.
The man oonfessed. He said that ha was Will
iam Curley, age eighteen years, of US IUIlroad
avenue, and that Joseph Itelllr, of Clark place,
and Richard Carey, of Wayne street, both young
men, were with him.
When Curley finished he decided that he could
die ln peace after confession. He was taken to the
City Hospital, however, whero ho will probably re
cover. Carey and Rellly were arrested an hour later, and
committed for trial by Justloe Stllslng. As Rellly
left home with a policeman he called outi "Good
by for two years, mother; but don't forget to give
It to 'em that I was home at 11 o'clock."

tSrlCZAL TO TH WOSLD.I
Boston, Doo. 14. Rev. Justin D. Fulton
and his ombryo book, " Why Priests Should
Wed," aro tho talk of tho town. Thoro is
moro religious feeling hero to-day than has
been known sinoe tho days of tho famous
"Know-Nothings."
Fulton is not a flghtor, but ho has nblo
lieutenants who aro at work in his behalf and
aro dotennined to " put him through to vie.
tory" if they possibly can, in his fight with
his printers, Rand, Avery k Company.
Fulton's friends say that pressure has been
brought to bear upon tho firm by tho priest
hood. This tho Printing Company stoutly
deny. They say his book was simply inde
cent, and on that ground, and that ground
alono they rofusod to sot it up.
Having refused to set it up, they now ro
fuso to return Fulton his manuscript or allow
any other firm to go to work upon it. They
aro determined to fight it out, and as Falafax
said to tho French Uonorol, " It will bo war
to tho knife."
Tho Boston papers havo published tho let
ter from tho firm, but beyond this thoy ro
fuso to touch tho matter, notwithstanding
peoplo aro crying for tho facts in tho caso.
BnOOKZNOLX nroxoxKT.
TnuWonLD correspondent this morning
colled upon Mosos King and Mr. Rand, two
members of tho printing-houso. Said Mr.
King 1
"Wo aro not actuated by any religious
feeling in deolining to print, ' Why Priests
Should Marry.' Why should we be? Every
member of tho firm is a Protestant. Many of
our girls who woro at work upon tho manu
script of Dr. Fulton wero also Protestants.
They wero the first to objeot. You see. tho
manuscriDt kopt coming in by instalments.
" When the third or fourth chapter camo in
the girls and men aliko rofused to handle it,
nnd wo then went over some of it that tho
foreman brought in. It was then that we
decided not to go on with tho work. It was
terribly filthy and indecent. If some ono
had written out tho details of an
orgy in a den of iniquity in the
lowest quarter of Now York City, it
could not havo been more disgusting.
' ' We would havelbeen just as much justified
in publishing a story about a houso of ill
fame as publishing that book. Thon, of
course, having decided not to go on wo de
termined to keep the manuscript in order to
protect ourselves. If we havo damaged Mr.
Fulton then we aro responsible and ore pre
pared to face tho music At any rate, we
purpose to stand by our decision.

Dear Bras: I am sorry to know that you have
rofusod to print Dr. Fulton's book and allow a few
Catholics to rule your grand old ooncern by saying
they wont work on It,
Just now ask God about it, and ask him If it Is
right to have this enormous evil exposed which Is

It is impossible for me to express my surprise at
your action ln regard to printing Rev. J. D. Pulton's
book, Why Priests Should Wed."
He told the people tbe facts at Mnalo Hall yester
day, and when he asked tor an expression ln favor
of hla course and ln favor of supporting him in
whatever obstacles he may encounter, almost
every person in the house immediately sprang to
his feet.
The put history of our country, if nothing else,
ought to bave given you backbone enough to do
what you know to be right.
The feeling against you Is enormous, and unless
you reconsider your course aad immediately ful
fil your contract It will hurt your business ter
ribly. I do not write this to alarm you. but to state the
facts as thousands see them, and beg of you to re
consider your action before It Is too late. The
Catholics are only one-tenth of our population, and
not to be feared; but If they were nine-tenths mon
ought never to be afraid to tell the truth, espe
cially ln Boston with all her hallowed memories.
If Fulton's book la untrue or objectionable In any
way, none will be more readr to suppress it than
those who now demand its publication.
Print the book. Let It stand on It merits. Do
your duty. Fear not and the people of Boston and
America will take care of you. Respectfully,

In addition to thoso lettors, many business
men, both Cathollo and Protestant, have
called to-day on Rand, Avery A Co. Many of
them havo complimented tho firm on tbe
stand thoy have taken and assure them that
thoy will havo all tho moral support they
need.
Whllo Tub Would correspondent was in
Mr. Rand's private office, a prominent real
estate broker camo in and ridiculod the firm
for their lack of courage. "Be men." he
said, "print the book. Let the light of
truth shine forth and free 7,000,000 women
and girls from tho clutches of the priest,
hood."
WANTED COMSTOCK TO SETTLE IT,
"There is ono other thing wo want to toll
Ttie Wobld," said Mr. King when wo wero
alono again. " A proposition has iust beon
mndo to the concern that this whole matter
be reforred to Anthony Corastock. This wo
are willing to do, but on this condition t If
ho says tho objectionable manuscript is de
cent, then ho shall also havo the privilege of
saying how much damages we shall nay to
Dr. Fulton. Because if they are deoent,
then we certainly have injured him and his
reputation and ought to be mode to pay
for it.
" Yesterday this proposition was made to
us, but to-day Dr. Fulton sends iu the follow

It win not avail. Either a part of tbe truth must

I do not propose to tell anything which an Intelli

Tho man of national roputation refcrrod to

DB. rULTON HAS HADE fflS WXLL.
In talking about his position to-dny, Dr.
Fulton said :
I have taken my life in my own handa ln thla
work of attacking the Cathollo clergy, and I pro
pose to malntsln my position. I have known what
opposition it should encounter, snd before begin
ning the crusado I made my will, and consequently
am prepared for any emergency, I bellevo what I
stats to be tho truth.
About tho fight with tho printers, Mr.
Fulton said 1
Moses King and Thomas Lamion. of the Arm of
Rand Avery A co, , argued that thoy would not
think of Insulting their printers, either Cathollo or
Protestant, by asking them to engage in suoh a
work as my book, and that It the firm should put
It out under their Imprint it would undermine their
business,
WAB PROCLAIMED.
An right, Messrs. Rand, Avery ft Co., the
die hss been csst and now war proclaimed between
us. The founder of this concern wasaMelhodtst,
a man of purity. Integrity and a devout adherent to
his religious beliefs, and under his supervision
there would bave been no trouble with my book.
When they received my oopy I supposed there
would be no trouble ln getting my book out.
The firm may have mv copy and compel me to
sue tbem for It recovery, but I tell you they have
no chattel mortgage on me. My book reveals the
fact ot the licentious Uvea thst the priesthood Is
living, aud Is largely made up of extract from
work already published and what a reformed
priest hss said In Musio Hall.
Shall these truths be suppressed by a printer who
has done the bidding ot a Cathollo priest? Shall
their corruption be uncovered to the Amcrioan
people or allowed to continue?
If tho commission should docido against
the firm there will bo a striko among tho om-
Sloyees. The girls say : " Commission or no
ommission, wo will not set tho book up,"

London despatches repeat rt sensational
statement by tho Timet that Dr. Hamilton
WilUnms, of Now York, has 'succoodod
O'Donovnn Itossn in tho leadership of tho
oitromo Matlonallsls hero, nnd that Williams
has chargo of n fsnd of $1,000,000 to orcan
izo assassinations and dynamito explosions in
England.
Dr. Hamilton ''Williams lives and has his
ofllco in a noat f ramo houso at 130 Huron
stroot, Orconpoint. Ho places at tor his namo
tho mystlo lettors Tj. K. A. 0. F. I., whioh ho

Ho was not at homo this morning, but n
'Would reporter found him at tho houso of

He is a very tall and finely built man of
thlrty-flvo years, with coal.black beard and
muBtaoho nnd n rich, deop boss voico. Ho
spooks with a broguo.
Ho said ho had rend tho London despatch,
nnd had left tho houso to avoid reporters.
" Tho report is absurd." ho Bald, laughing.
I am a physlolnn with a largo tiractico.
and havo no timo to sparo for assaRsfnatlon."
Still, whon tho reporter nut a plump ques
tion as to whothor Dr. Hamilton was tho
leader of tho Fenian Brotherhood in Itossa's
place, the doctor would not civo a plain yes
or no. Ho sold tho statement was an old
chestnut, that it was mndo eight months ngo
nnd that ho doniod it thon.
Ho would not say that it was not trno now.
Ho characterized tho statoment as to the

lama poor man," ho said.
" Aro you a membor of tho Olan-na-gacI ?"
' I am a patriotio Irishman and a sympa
thizer with tho causo'" was tho reply.
O'Donovnn Itossa was found at the United
IrUhman ofllco, and was in a talking humor.
" I know Dr. Hamilton Williams," ho said,
" and knowing him, I know a good, brave
Irishman."
" Has ho supplanted you aa head of the
Fenian Brotherhood hero ?"
" Ho has not, for tho reason that thoro is
no Fenian Brotherhood, and what thero is Is
in tho hands of England's agents. If there
woro any monoyln my hands for dynamito
work to help Irishmen to free Ireland I
would as soon seo Dr. Williams supplant mo
in tho possession of it as any of tho many
good men I havo been associated with for
many years. "
" Has Dr. Williams previously been identi
fied with tho Irish cause F"
" Ho has, and identified in a way that
frightened England very much. Ho was
accused of a sharo in tho killing of Burko
and Cavendish in Phoenix Fark, Dublin, aud
England was hunting to catch him. but he
onmo to thla 'country. It was a meritorious
aot to kill those mon, anyway.
" Why meritorious ?
" Hould your tonguo.man," shouted Itossa.
" Don't bo talking. Every Englishman going
to Ireland to govorn Irishmen for England
dosorvos (loath, and until Irishmen kill them
or frighten them out of Ireland it Is nonsenso
for thorn to bo talking of freoing Ireland. I
don't tako any stock in Farnolllsm or in any
movemont for Ireland's froodom whioh has
not physical, manly forco at tho root of it.
" As to tho dynamito boing stored in Lon
don. I'll say nothing." Itossa added. "I
won't say anything to allay tho fears of Eng
lish dovus who murior Irishmen."

If the matter is not adjusted at to-day's meeting,

In that case tbe differentials fixed npon by them
will be accepted as final by the parties.
