INGALLS AS A LECTURER
rriAIKSON THE PROBLEMS OP
E ' oDibiCWDCESTW.
E , predicts That Washington Will
Always be the Capital of the Nation.
T , e DB nger of Paternalism in the
Government Discussed - The Dia
tribut on of Wealth.
Washington, Jute 30.-Ex-Senator In
ralls made bis debut as a lecturer at the
national Chautauqua at Glen Echo, near
this city, to-day. His subject was: ‘The
Problems of Our Second Century,” and his
effort was listened to by a largo audience.
He took occasion to prophesy, in the begin
ning of his talk, that the capital of
t e republic would never be moved
from its present site. The first problem
shich ho discussed was the danger of
paternalism in tbe government, and he
paid his respects in his unique way to the
slass of people who want their debts paid by
an act of congress, and who would have
money as plentiful as autumn leaves in the
jkorest. He did not believe, he said, in hav
ing the government doing everything and
the people nothing.
DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH.
Referring to the problem of unequal dis
tribution of wealth, he said that it. was not
r ght that 10,000,000 people should never
have enough to eat in this country from
one year s oud to another, nor should it ever
happen that a man went hungry when he
was willing and able to work. It was
quite evident from his talk, however,
jthat he did not expect the
present condition of affairs to
speedily change, for ho said that If all the
wealth in the United States were to bo
equally divided now. In six months there
would bo some peoplo ridiug in palanee cars,
some in buggies, some would be walking
and some would tie sitting in the fenoe
oorners watching the procession go by.
AGITATORS WOULD STILL SHOUT.
“Above all,'’he added, “there would be
seard again tfie voice of the irrepressible
reformer earning his livelihood by the per
ipiratiou of his jaw rather than by the
iweat of ins brew.” He said that he would
Ike to have a private car, steam yacht and
other luxuries, and that the reason
why he did not have them
was in himself. If some men were
lch mid others wore poor. It was tbe fault
pf the Creator. He would not disguise the
act that the present was a momentuous
fisis in the history of this country, and that
ill the forces of demoralization were mar
shaled for the contest. He had no doubt
;jf the outcome of the light.
WHAT THE FUTURE HAS IN STORE.
There would be in the future broader
liberty, larger opportunities for happiness
and greater prophecies for development of
he nation than the miud of mail can now
goneeive. In tne course of his remarks be
toferred to himself as a statesman out of a
pb, to the great amusement of the audience.

The morning news.
WHIPPED BY WHITE CAPS.
A Man and a Girl Flogged Until They
Fainted.
Chicago, 111., June 30. —A dispatch
from New Albany, Ind., says: “There
was another bru'al whipping by White Caps
in Crawford county, Sunday morning, in
whioh a young woman of 18 years was
among the victims. William McGuire and
his 18-year-old stepdaughter live near Leav
enworth, the county seat of Crawford
county. They were reported to be living in
adultery, but there was no proof of this
charge. About 10 o’clock Sunday twenty
masked White Caps arm id with
went to McGuire’s resilience, broke down
the door and, seiziugj McGuire, who is about
50 years old, aud bis step daughter, they
dragged them to the woods and tied them
to trees. The clothing of both victims was
lowered to the hips and the White Caps
commenoed their cruel work, switching
them on their bare backs, flaying them
from the shoulders down to the hips. The
young woman shrieked for mercy at every
blow, but her appeals were in vain until
she sank fainting from pain.
She received over fifty lashes
and her shoulders and hips are fright
fully lacerated. Old man McGuire was
given about seventy five lashes. He also
fainted under the savage punishment.
After the whipping the White Caps
notified them that if they were
found in the county twenty days later
they would be swung up by their necks and
left for the buzzards to pick. This infa
mous whipping of helpless girls has created
more intense excitement at Leavenworth,
and in the neighborhood of that town it is
denounced with great bitterness.”
AN ENGINE EXPLODES.
Four Men Blown to Atoms and One
of Them Not Found Yet.
White Haven, Pa., June SO.— A disas
trous explosion occurred on the Central
railroad of New Jersoy, last night, near
Nesquehanny junction, by which four men
were instantly killed. Yard engine No. 335
was shifting freight and had just passed out
of the yard, in which there were several
other engines and crews. When it reached
Nesquehan.ia tbe fire underneath the engine
boiler was noticed to be dying out and was
giving off a quantity of vapor. Fireman
Pope got down from the cab with the inten
tion of examining tne boiler. He bad barely
reached the door when a violent explosion
occurred.
FOUR KILLED.
Four men who wero on the engine were
blown in every direction. The fireman has
not been found yet. The names of the
killed are: Engineer Thomas Trip of Mauch
Chunk, Fireman J. Pope of Lansford,
Brakeman Gallagher of Mauch Chunk, and
Brakeman Smith of Mauchchunk. The
body of Engineer Trip was found over 100
yards from where the explosion occurred.
His body was bruised and crushed in a hor
rible manner. The brakeir.en were found
in opposite directions and by the wounds
they received must have died almost in
stantly. No trace of the fi-emen has yet
been discovered. The engine itself was
totally wrecked. The boiler was found
upon the mountain fully 800 feet from
where it had stood. If the explosion had
occurred while in the yard the loss of life
would have Dean much greater.
RIOT OF THE MINERS.
The Outlook: at the Franklin Coal
Mines Still Threatening.
Seattle, Wash., June 30. —The outlook
at the Frankliu coal mines is still threaten
ing, and Col. Haynes has telegraphed h re
for another company of militia, with more
ammunition. There was no serious trouble
yesterday,however. Porter Robinson, one
of the miae bosses, was brought here,
charged with killing Torn Morris and Ed
Williams, leaders in Sunday’s riot. The
fight lasted fully half an hour, resulting
iu the death of two men and the wounding
of four strikers, two women and oneoolored
guard. The trouble commenced on the ar
rival of the evening train from Newcastle
with a number of guards who had escorted
a load of negroei to the latter's camp. The
guards say that when the train was
pulling inte Franklin it was
iued upon by some white
miners from ambush. The guards returned
the tire from a window, and when the train
stopped at the depot the white miners com
menced firing upon the negro camp. The
negroes went wild and could not be re
strained by the guards. Securing their
arms, they poured volley after volley at
their assailants, and only ceased when the
latter dispersed. Over 1,000 shots were
fired.

Washington, June 30. —A special report
on immigration into the United Btates pre
pared by tbe bureau of statistics of tbe
treasury department will soon be published.

tbe revolutionary war to that time is esti
mated at 335,000. The arrivals of immi
grants from 1831 to 1890 have reached 15,841,
868. The arrivals from 1871 to 1890 were

of arrivals from Europe has increased from
68.80 ter cent, of the whole immigration in
the decade from 1821 to 1830 to 91.07 per
cent, in the last decade, from 1881 to 1890.
THE ARRIVALS BV NATIONALITIES.
The following figures give the arrivals of
each nationality during tbe entire period
from 1820 to 1800:

The iunnigation from China amounted to
132,436 from 1871 to 1880, and to 61,469
during the years 1881 and 1882, after which
the Chinese exclusion law went into effect
and the arrivals have been very small. The
year of largest immigration yet reported
was that ended June 30, 1883, when the ar
rivals wore 788,992. The immigration
from'ltaly to the United States was 15,401
for the fiscal year 1881 and has steadily in
creased until 1890, when it was 52,003, and the
present year ended, June 30,1891, when the
total for the ten month* has reached 51,153, as
against 34.310 for the corresponding months
of IS9O. The immigration from Hungary
amounted in 1881 to 6,826 and during 1890
to 22,062. The figures for ten months of
the present year have reached 22,496. Im

RIVAL LABOR ORDERS.
A New Complication in tbe Matter of
the Plate Printers.
Washington, June 30. —Hugh Cavan
augh of Cincinnati aud John Devlin of the
executive board of the Knights of Labor
bad a consultation with Secretary Foster
this afternoon on the subject which bos
been at issue for some time between the
chief of the bureau of engraving and printing
and the Knights or Labor, in which
the reappointment of seveu plate
printers removed from tbe bureau
is involved. Arrangements were
progressing for a settlement of all the differ
ences, when a delegation representing the
Federation of Laboe, a rival order, called
at the treasury department and asked for a
hearing before any agreement was made
with the knights. Tbe federation rep
resentatives were admitted, and at
once strenuously objected to any con
cession being made to the knights,
whioh would put their men ahead of the
members of tbe federation already on the
“ohance 1 ' list of the bureau and waiting
employment. This new complication of
the case made any furtfcer agreement im
possible, and the secretary was compollod to
leave tho question pending until to-morrow
or until the labor organizations can settle
the inside fight among themselves.
Mr. Powderly declared that he is not
here on the plate-printer business. He says
he is here to see Dr. Maouno of the farms
ers’ alliance about the third party move
ment, Mr. Powderly prediots a thrd party
nomination ns a result of the convention to
be held here in Feburary next.

The Old Warship Ordered to Return j
to Mare Island.
W ashington, June 30.—Orders have been
sent to the Pensacola, now at Callao, to re
turn to to the United States and repair at
the Mare Island (Cal.) navy yard. Admi
ral McCann, who Is commander-in-chief of
the South Atlantic station, will also oorne
to the United States by the steamer. The
cause for tbe order is said to be the neces
sity for repairing tbe Pensao la, one of the
oldest wooden ships, and tbe need for tbe
services of one of the two admirals.no w in the
South Paoiflo, else where. When the Chilean
rebellion broke out Admiral McCann was
withbiscommandontbe east c astof South
America. By o ders from the navy de
partment he hastened around Cape Horn
with his flagship and represented the United
States government in Chilian matters.
ADMIRAL BROWN’S BANK.
Anmiral Brown was commander-in-chief
of the Pacific squadron, but wnen he later
on reached Chile, on the San Francisco, lie

reason of the seniority of the latter. There
fore Admiral McCann’s departure will
leave Admiral Brown iu command
of the San Francisco and the
Baltimore, now iu the neighborhood
of the insurgent headquarters at Iqttique.
Admiral McCann was not ordered to rejoin
his station with tbe Pensacola for the reason
that It was feared that tbe repairs of the
vessel might take a long time, ami, indeed,
there is some doubt as to whether she can
be refitted for service within the expendi
ture authorized by law.

UNIVEhSUY OF VIRGINIA.
Henry Watters in Cue of the Orators
of tbe Commencement Season.
University of Virginia, -iuna 30.—Tho
exercises of the Universit” f Virginia are
ua progress. A meeting o* the society of
the alumni was held this imraing. Henry
Watterson of Louisville addressed the lit
erary societies on the subject of “Our
Whole Country, Its Grandeur, Lights and
Shadows." A gold medal wus presented to
Stewart Ment ith Beard of New York for
the best original article iu the Virginia
University Magazine during the past ses
sion.
wattbrson’s speech.
Mr. Watterson said: “lam afraid that
you will consider me heterodox when I tell
you that lam not going to speak on this
occasion about Virginia, tbe mother of
states, nor yet of Kentucky—Virginia’s
first born, nor even of ti e fair and sunny
south we all love so well. I wish to talk
about our whole country, its grandeur, its
danger, its lights aud shades, seeking to
show you young sailors some of
the shoals to be avoided and the
breakers to be got over.” He first paid a
glowing tribute to America. It had noth
ing todarken or mar its prospect but Can
ada and Mexico, the former a retreat for a
man with no moDey but morals, the latter a
home for thosedestitute of both. He did not
mean this as an offense or
reproach to either section, both being
destined to seek admission to this country.
This was a material age, he added, in which
all things turn to money. Ha deplored the
bad use often made of it, give credit for
the good it does and advised young men to
avoid short cuts to wealth.
DANGERS TO THE NATION.
“Look at America, not other countries,
and see what are tbe dangers of the nation.
It is not the raoe question of tho south—tha"
is a question about which I have no theory.
I once hop*! for the negro race speedv ele
vation now I am content to leave to God in
his own good time tho raising high
of that race. It is not
tho question of fair and free
elections These are issues which will adjust
themselves.” Smiling, he said it was not
the tariff question; much of its forme.-im
portance is lost. It may burst forth at
election time, but it is rapidly diminishing
in size.
AFRAID OF NO SINGLE ISSUE.
Ho was afraid of no single issue dividing
the people. There never was a time when
so little danger threatened the people as
now. Tho issues which divide the parties
were but trifles light as air as compared
with those which the past quarter of a
century had seen. He pleaded for honesty
and economy iu national affairs and appro
priations, and advised that innovations
bo made cautiously. His closing remarks
were: “Hear Woiesley as he saul to Crom
well, 'Cromwell, I charge thee cast away
ambition, for by that fault fell the angels.'
Personal character is the chief thing in life,
prize it; all else is secondary. By your
livos, young men, be purified iu the Ugnt of
anew and perfect day."

German Influence in This Country to
Be Greatly Increased If the Agita
tion for the Appointment of German
Bishops is Successful—The Country’s
Cathol.c Population.
(.Copyright, 1891, by the N. Y. Associated Press.)
Berlin, Jline 30. —Copies of the full text
of the seoond memorial presented by Herr
Cahensly to the papal secretary of state,
Cardinal Rampolla, have been put into
circulation. The greatest importance is at
tached to the memorial. If, as it is hoped,
the holy see can be induced
to follow out its recommendations
and appoint a large number of Germau
clergymen as bishops ia the United States.
German influence across the Atlantic will
be vastly increased and will redound
directly to the growth of the influence of
the home German government in Ameri
can affairs.
APPEALS to other governments.
Herr Cahensly, indeed, appeals for aid to
other foreign governments, Italy, Austria,
Spain and Canada, promising them in re
turn a due share of the prestige which will
come from division of tbs episcopal sees of
America among the representatives of the
different classes of immigrants. It is felt
here, nevertheless, that the lion’s share will
iall to the lot of the German empire. The
war on the Irish bishops in America will
be prosecuted with vigor. It will be no
lault of Herr Cahensly if he fails.
extracts from the memorial.
Following are extracts from the memo
rial, which is Of great length: “This great
question affects luterests that are of very
great importance whether they be regarded
irorn a social or from a religious point of
view. The current which is carrying away
to America the populations of the different
nationalities is already formidable; in
the future it is likely to become
irresistible. It is proven by the table of
statist!'s appended to this memorial that
139,400 Catholics left Europe for the Ameri
can continent during the year 1839.
Of this number 178,900 went to the
United States. The same country received,
moreover, thousands of emigrants from
Canada, Mexico, Brazil and other countries
of Latin America.
OUR CATHOLIC POPULATION.
“Calculations based upon most authorita
tive statistics go to show that Catholic im
migrants and their children ought to con
stitute in the United Statei a Catholic pap
ulation of 26,090,000, but tbe fact ia that the
nuniDer of Catholics in this vast country
scarcely exceeds 10,000,000. Catbolloity,
therefore, has up to the present date sus -
toined a net loss of 16,000,000 in
the great American republic.”
influence of thr bishops.
After speaking of the great influence of
the bishops the memorial says; * ’Upon this
question depends tbe solution of tho great
est problem of modern times, the problem
of the migration of nations. First, the
salvation of souls is herein concerned.
Bishops who are strangers to the spirit,
character, habits and customs of
other nations cannot in the required meas
ure. despite tbeir virtues, knowledge and
zeal, appreciate and effectually attend to
the wants of those nations. Again, the har
mony and concord between the different
nationalities are affected by
this question. If the episcopate
he handed over almost exclusively
to one single nationality, to the detriment
of others, a feeling of uneasiness, of general
discontent, is created among these last—a
feeling which assumes the proportions of
jealous national rivalries; feelings are
wounded and shocked in every saorel right
and interest belonging to these same nations.
WANT OF JUSTICE.
“Want, of justice is as pressing as wautof
bread. It is desired that concord and har
mony should reign among the different
nations that go to make up the church of
tbeUnited States. Nothing is more desirable,
nothing more essential. The sole and only
way to attain this end is to give to every
one of these nations bishops of
their own, bishops belonging to
each who will represent their respective na
tions in the Episcopal body, just as those
nations are represented among the parochial
clergy and among the faithful. As dioceses
are formed of Catholics of different national
ities, thore is no question of demanding a
division of these dioc?ses according to
natiomdit es What is expeoted of the holy
see is thut bishops of the different nations
will bo placed in the episcopal body, so that
the different nations will be represented by
some of their own in the episcopate, in the
ecclesiastical provinces and in tbe councils.
Thanks to this prudent measure, the
church of the United States, being com
posed of such different. nations, will have a
character of universality, liko that of a na
tion itself.”

The Companies Suspect That James
McHenry Committed Suicide.
London, Jane 30. —1 tis now said that
the late James McHenry, a well known
financier and old time Erie railroad litigant,
whose body was exhumed June 20 by order
of Rome Secretary Matthews, was insured
in England and tne United States /or over
$5,000,000. The insurance companies sus
pected that MoHenry committed suicide by
poison, thus rendering void the insurance
policies on his life. His body has been re
interred after being subjected to a careful
post-mortem examination. The intestines,
etc., remain in possession of the offiuers of
the home office.
TRIED TO KEEP IT SECRET.
It was intended to ooneeal the exhuma
tion until the results of the analysis of tbe
contents and condition of the stomach were
made known, and If, ia faot, the examiua
'tion had resultod in showing that Mr. Mc-
Henry’s death was uot caused by poison, it
is more than probable that the government
uflloers and others would have
kept the exhumation secret. Mr.
McHenry’s friends soout the idea
of suicide, and are indignaut at the pub
licity which the affair has now attained. It
is expected that the analysis of the dead
man’s stomach will not be complete i before
the end of the woek. The names of the

An Attempt Made and Many Shots

the Eye—A Bullet Breaks the Pris
oner's Shackles.
Brunswick, Ga., June 30.—The Deported
lynching at VVaynesville of Johnson Green,
the negro murderer, did not occur, al
though a desperate attempt was made, re
sulting in the serious wounding of Green,
who is now at his father’s home in Camden
county under guard of Deputy Sheriff Rus
sell, and receiving medical treatment from
Dr. Barrett Atkiusou. The story of
the attack of the lynchers, the
prisoner’s narrow escape, and his race for
life it best told by one acquainted with the
facto. The story of the crime was given
yesterday. When the guards parted
company with Judge King at a branoh
road they drove rapidly forward with their
prisoner in front, securely bound, with his
ueck chained to tho seat of a buckhoard
Buggy. They wore drawn by one horse.
ATTACK OK THE LYNCHERS.
About a mile from the scene of the trial
the guards were startled by the sudden up
rising from both aides of the road of a body
of armed men who demauded the deliver
ance of the prisoner, and fired rifles pro
miscuously. One shot struck tbe horse in
the eye and Guard Rope well’s head was
grazed by a bullet, whioh glanced off. The
horse, terrified and crazy w ith pain, bounded
forward, followed by the mob, some shoot
ing at every step. Through the woods went
the horse,guardsjand prisoner, the latter beg
ging for mercy and vainly endeavoring to
stop the horse. Suddenly the buggy struck a
tree. Tho horse was freed, and dashed off
through tbe woods. The guards were
thrown to tho grouud, and tbe prisoner
rolled down by the buggy. As if by prov
idence, a bullet directed at his head struck
the lock that tound the chain to ills neck,
shattered tho fastening, and he was once
more free.
A RAC* FOR LIFE.
Grasping tho opportunity he darted
through the woods pursued by the
lynchers, firing as they ran. Hand
cuffed and with chains dangliag
from his body the hounded
negro ran for his life and finally eluded bis
pursuers. For ten miles he kept up the
race aud sauk exhausted at bis father’s door.
Blood was pouring from three wounds. One
was in his arm, one in his neok, and the
third was in his side. His father sent for
Dr. Atkinson, who responded and dressed
the wounds. Deputy Bheriff Russell was
also called and now protects
Green from further harm. This is the
sworn testimony of responsible men, and
Popwell and Odnm aro completely exoner
ated from blame. Tho reasons given for
not trying Green at VVaynesville are that
tbe murder for which ha was arrested was
committed in Judge King’s district. The
negroes around Waynesvllle are not vet
satisfied 11. at Green is alive, but are keeping
0001, and any trouble from them will be
ouickly checked. Drunken whites un
doubtedly attempted tbe lynching.*
