Associated Profs Dispatches. |
Washington, March I.—The Catholic
church and tl\e charge that it inuk
tain's a lobby at Washington to manipu
late appropriations in behalf of Indian
sectarian schools, wan the Bubjeet of
much acrimonious discussion ior three
hours in the house today. The ludian
appropriation bill was the meaiure under
consideration, aud the immediate cause
of the religious discussion was the sec
tion making an appropriation for the
Carlisle Indian school.
It waa stated iv the house that Cap
tain Pratt ot tho United States army,
superintendent of that school, iv apeak
iug of the attacks made in the houae
against appropriations ior Indian
schools, had said that they were
made through the Catholic church,
in paying congressmen to attack
national Schools, because tliey are detri
mental to parochial schools, which ure
given three titneß the amount by the
government that other denominations
receive.
Oungreeemen Maueur of Missouri,
Stockdale of Mississippi aud Pendleton
oi West Virginia, who were understood
by implication to be the congreasmen
referred to, made a lively attack on
Captain Pratt, and demanded as a
penalty for hia utterancea that the
#1000 appropriation he annually re
ceived as superintendent of the Carlisle
Indian school be stricken from the bill.
He had many valiant defenders in tbe
houae, however, and it waa more hia
reiterated declaration by telegraph to
day than the original newspaper state
ment that finally led the house to adopt
an amendment cutting off hia salary as
superintendent. .
WHAT I'BATT MAID.
Several of his congressional friends
who doubted whether the superintend
ent had made the statement attributed
to him, telegraphed today and received
the following reply:
"My remarks were that tbe Catholics
got more tban double as much Indian
school appropriations aa all other de
nominations combined; tbat they main
tain a powerful lobby in Washington and
manipulate politics to accomplish their
purpose. These were general state
ments, having no bearing whatever on
individual members of congress, much
less on Mansur, in whose general views
I concur."
Thin waa quite satisfactory to Manaur,
but not very consoling to anybody else,
and its reading had the effect of causing
the house promptly to adopt the pro
posed amendment.
TUB INDIAN DILL PASSED.
The committee of the whole then rose
and reported the bill to the house.
The previous question having been
ordered, Pickler of South Dakota de
manded a separate vote on Bowera'a
amendment providing that vacancies
hereafter occurring in Indian agencies
shall be filled by army officers. The
bill passed.
TARIFF BILLS REPORTED.
McMillin of Tennessee, from the com
mittee on ways and means, reported the
free wool bill, which was referred to the
committee cf the whole, together with
the views of the minority presented by
Burrows of Michigan.
McMillin etated that owing to the
illness of Springer he would uot call the
bill up until Tuesday next.
Bryan of Nebraska and Turner of
Georgia respectively, from the same
committee, reported bills for the free
entry of binding twine and cotton bag
ging and ties, which were referred to the
committee of the whole, and leave waa
granted Payne of New York and Dalzell
of Pennsylvania to present the viewa of
the minority. Adjourned.
A Nil-SILVER DEMOCRATS.
The New England and New York anti
silver Democrats and some of the more
pronounced opponents of free silver
from other states were in frequent con
ference today, canvassing the situation
and endeavoring to concert meas
ures by which additional strength
might be secured for their eide iv the
coming fight in the house over the silver
question. As the result, as asserted by
several anti-ailver Democrats, they have
sufficient Democratic votes to defeat the
report of the rules committee eetting
the time for the consideration of the
Bland bill, provided the Republicans
ataud by them. Inquiry made of
a number of Republican eenatora, shows
that thus far there have been no confer
ences among them, nor any agreement
for concerted action on the quest ion of
conßideration of the Bilver bill. Pierce,
Bland and other silver men express un
limited confidence in their ability to de
feat, on a vote, any proposition looking
to the shelving or defeat of the free
silver bill.

The senate committee on coast de
fenses had under consideration this
morning the bill appropriating $1,000,
--000 for the establishment of a gun fac
tory on the Pacific coast, and decided
by an unanimous vote to report it
favorably to the senate. The location
of the site for the factory is left to a
board to be appointed by the president,
consisting of three officers ol the army
and three of the navy.
Senator Felton desired that the bill
be so amended aa to locate the site
definitely at Benicia, Cal., but hia mo
tion to thia effect waa voted down.

A MEETING OF STORMS.
SEVERE AERIAL DISTURBANCES ON
THE ATLANTIC COAST.
Much Damage to Shipping and Seaside
Resorts—The Tide in New Tcr!: Bay
tha Highest Ever Known—The Surf
Eating Away the Jersey Shore.
New York, March I.—The present
epidemic of aerial disturbances is due
to the meeting of two atorms, one of
which came up the coast from North
Carolina, the other having its birth in
Central Ohio, and going eaat. Each in
creased in violence until they met about
midnight last night. Vessels tbat came
into port through Hell Gate report ter
rific weather on the sound, all being de
layed and all passengers aboard being
very seasick..
Atlantic Highlands, N. J., reports the
highest tide ever known. Considerable
wreckage was cast ashore. A large ves
sel is reported wrecked off Sandy Hook.
Several hundred leet of the new rail
way wae washed away near Milton Park
and a lirge pile driver was sunk in deep
water.
I This morning at Staten island the tide
I was the highest ever known. Had it
risen another inch all the heating ap
paratus ou Ellis island would bave been
rendered useless. Tbe furnace rooms
of the big immigration building were
flooded thia morning and it was only by
tbe greatest efforts that the fires were
kept going.
Tbe upper bay was filled with wreck
age today. One of the Staten Island
ferries passed the wreck of a canal boat
drifting near Oyater island flat. A large
number of smaller craft are reported
seriously damaged, and there was much
difficulty experienced by ferry passen
gers in boarding and departing from
boats. Many piera were submerged by
the high tide.
In the city many telephone and tele
graph wires were blown down and poles
broken and wrecked, and there waa
much delay in ttanamitting messages.
The storm raging furiously to
night.
The surf at Long Branch haa torn
away twenty feet of the bluff in front of
the old Leiand house, and great damage
ie threatened by the high tide tonight.
From Elberon to Seabright a strong surf
is tearing out the beach badly, and tbe
partially completed bulkheads are all
demolished. Several cottages near the
coast are in danger.
The storm ia tearing out all tbe wires
along the coast, and haa carried away
the pipea of tho Long Branch water
works, cutting off the water supply of
the cottages at Monmoutn Beach and
Seabright.
At Atlantic City a building in
course of construction, intended to
be one of the finest buaineas structures
in the city waa blown down and several
smaller buildings demolished. A storm
ia also raging through Pennsylvania.

on Saturday by the receiver of the Cali
fornia National bank, will be issued on

Sioux' Falls, S. D„ March I.—Mra.
James G. Blame, jr., haa furniahed the
Associated Press an open letter in reply
to the "personal statement" made by
Jamea G. Blame, ar. It is as follows :
My Dear Sib : You have furnished
the public with a remarkable produc
tion under the caption of "A Personal
Statement." I consider it my duty at
thia time to addreaa you with that de
gree of dignity which your position aa •»
public man entitlea you to. I acknowl
edge your well-earned, richly-deserved
fame aa a diplomat, and appreciate fu!' •
the weight which your utterances pos
sess aa fully as I appreciate my own
wcaknesa and my total inability to cor c
with you in a persoual but I
shall expect from you that cow
and honorable'treatment which 1 am
sure your keen sense of equity aud
fairness will dictate. A powerfui man
of a great nation will surely
accord to a weak and defenseless
woman her full meed of justice You
surely can ill afford to withhold it. I
wish it distinctly understood ' you
that lam not askitig aympathy. I v-.
apectfully demand juatice. Iti.sin y< ,r
power to grant thia eimple request. It
remains to be aeen if you will do it. I
will aid you by suggesting.
Have the kindness to publish in con
nection with your statement the full
text of the letters you have quoted from.
Do not like a shrewd and unprincipled
person, select only auch pages as maybe
needed to make out your case, but give
tbe entire contents to the public, that I
may "be judged righteously. >ou have
the documents surely,else you could not
quote from them.
I will give you sufficient time in which
to conform to my reasonable demand;
say ten days. If, at the end of that
time, you fail to respond, I shall deem
it my duty to give, in imbalance, their
contents and corroborate my statement
by publishing the letters from yonr eon.
both prior and subsequent to pur Hrlr
riage.
You know full well that your charges
against me regarding our marriage are
unfounded. I give you ample oppor
tunity to retract. You have two alter
natives—the one suggested, or silence.
Your conaiderati n of your grandson
will surely induce you to decide in favor
of the firat.
This ia not a proposed diplomatic en
gagement on my part, for your success
in dealing with powerful nations ia too
well known for me to meet you on any
other grounds than aa tbe mother of
your grandson.
I take it that your sentiment waa
prompted chiefly by the remarka of
Judge Thomas in rendering his decision
which gave me my freedom. I have no
defense to offer in hia behalf. I simply
demand, now that you have arraigned
me by the uae of fragmentary quotationa
from my love letters to your sou,that you
be fair enough to publish the originala
in full. I will then prove to the world
that your sou was far from a weakling,
and that you, hia proud father, well
knew it long before he married me.
Truly yours,
Mary Nevins Blame.

WORLD OF SPORT.
DANNY NEEDHAM WINS A FIGHT
AT NEW ORLEANS.
Mauer and Fitzsiinmons to Battle Tonight.
AU Ready for the Maber— Lawson
Fight—Both Men in Fair Condition.
Maher Has the Call in Betting.
New Oklkan.s, March 1. —A meager
}i~semblage of sporta congregated at the
Metropolitan club ■ room tonight to wit
neßß a welter weight fight between Need
ham and Jack Burke, the latter having
consented to take the place of Tommy
Ryan, who is Btill suffering from throat
affection. The disappointment mani
fested because of the postponement of
the Ryan-Needham fight was still appar
ent in the crowd present. Jack Burke
ia boxing inatructor of the Young Men's
club, where he also put Tommy Ryan in
condition. He has had a good string of
victories tacked onto hia career. He was
ja very good condition, and Needham in
first-class. The latter was seconded by
Mike Connolly, Tom Manning of San
Francisco and Jlogan of Chicago. Burke
was seconded by Billey Dacey, George
Palmer and Charles Potter. Professor
Duffey waa referee.
In tbe firat round both landed heavy
lefts, Needham nearly falling; honors
easy.
Second —Needham landed two hard
right punches. Burke landed his left
on the face, but received one in the
stomach in return. Noither had much
advantage. m
Third—Needham became decidedly
aggressive, and there waa a heavy ex
change of blows ; the round winding up
with Needham landing a heavy right
on Burke'a mouth, drawing olood.
Fourth—Needham landed a heavy
right on the ribs and Burke returned a
good one on the neck; the round end
ing with a clinch.
Fifth—A number of good blows were
exchanged, and after a clinch Burke hit
Needham in tbe back of the head, mak
ing him mad.
Sixth —Burke stock went up in this
round. Needham landed hia right and
then clinched. Needham lauded an
other right on the body and a hard left
on the stomach. Burke then landed a
soaker from his left on Needham's
mouth and misaed a left swing from the
western boy. Time interrupted a hot
rally.
Seventh—Needham landed a heavy
right on the ribs, a heavy left on the
stomach and another on the nose. After
a clinch 'he landed a heavy left on
Burke'a mouth, and received one in re
turn. As time was called Needham
landed a stinger ou Burkes stomach
from his left.
Eighth—Needham landed hia left on
the atomach and hia right on the riba.
After a clinch he landed another heavy
right on the riba and pushed hia left
frequently into Burke'a noae. Burke
landed a heavy left on Needham'a neck,
but the San Francisco man was now
forging ahead.
Ninth—Needham landed a heavy
right and left on the body, and the New
Orleans man hit him but lightly in a
clinch. Burke tried with hia right, and
threw himself out of poaition, when
Needham landed a hot right on the riba,
and received Burke'a right in hiß
stomach. Needham than landed two
rights in succession in Burkes aore
ribs.
Tenth—Needham landed a heavy left
on the mouth, knocking Burke down,
Needham falling with him. The men
got up, and Needham knocked Burke
ont with a rattling right-hander on the
jaw.
Burke made a gallant fight against
superior strength aud science, seldom if
ever excelled in a New Orleans club.
THE GREAT FIGHT.
Maher and Fitzsimmons to Battle To
night.
Peter Maher, the "Irish giant," and
Bob Fitzsimmons battle tonight at New
Orleans. It promises to be a great con
test, and opinion is very much divided.
The east appears to favor Maher, while
New Orleans and California are fairly
solid for Fitzsimmons. This in a meas
ure accounts for tbe fact tbat Fitzsim
mons has a slight call in the betting.
There is much difference of opinion in
regard to the weight of the men, and
therefore it ie no easy matter to form an
intelligent opinion. A recent dispatch
says that Maher will not scale more
than 176 pounds, while Fitzsimmons
will weigh all of 168 or 170 pounds.
If there should not be more
than 7 pounds difference in weight
in favor of Maber, tbe writer

MABER AND LAWSON.
All Ready for the Lightweight Fight
tomorrow.
The Maber fiiwaon fight takes place
at the Pastime tomorrow evening. Both
men are reported to be in fair condi
tion, and a good mill ia expected. The
record ot Lawson haa already been pub
lished in the Herald. Billy Mabsr ia
24 yeare old. Iv 1888 he whipped Jim
Nolan in Beveu rounds, and won a num
ber of other matches in Australia. Hia
principal victory was over Tom Wil
liama.whom he beat in thirteen rounds.
Maber waa then defeated by Dawson in
twenty rounds. Since Maber has been
in this country, Williams, whom he de
feated, knocked out Dawson, the ac
knowledged champion oi Austra
lia. It will therefore be Been
that Maber stands high up in the
lightweight division, and should
he win on Thursday night, he will
probably be matched against the win
ner of the Gallagher-Dawaon fight.
Maber ia thin aa a whipping post, and
is a wonderfully hard hitter for a man
of hia physique. The fight will be a
scientific one, as both men are clever.
There will not be a surfeit of sparring,
aa both men will force the pace. The
longer the fight lasts the better will be
the chances of Lawson, aa hfi is liable
to abow up in better condition tban hia
opponent.
Rodman's pool room will open thia
evening, when poola will be sold and a
description by rounds will be received
of the Fitzaimmona-Maher conteat.
FOBGOT TO TURN THB SWITCH.
Seven Men Killed by a Kear End Collision
at Milwaukee.
Milwaukee, March 1. —The Water
town locac train, due in Milwaukee at 4
o'clock this afternoon, ran into and de
molished the rear end of a train loaded
with employees of the Weßt
Milwaukee shops of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad,
killing seven men and injuring several
others. The trains were moving in tha
same direction, the workmen's train
having just left the main track on a
short switch and strung itself out on the
track parallel with the main line.
The switchman forgot to turn the switch
after the workmen's train, and the local
a moment after passed on the short
switch, and in a minute had telescoped
the rear car. The seven men killed
were terribly mangled. Bartel has die
appeared. The men killed were mechan
ics living in the city. None of the
local's passengers were injured.
The occupants of the coach, which
was packed with workingmen, had no
warning of impending danger, and in an
instant they were being ground between
the sides of the overturned coach and
