plied for two arters for street railways. It
has secured another railroad ninety miles long,
and while located on the greatest system in
the Booth, the Central, has secured connec¬

Witnesses Who Saw Them May 4.
Chicago. Nov. 19.—The cross exami¬

an interview which h > had with iceman
O’Sullivan about May 29, as follows:
"The question I put to him was:
,
‘What societies of any kind do you be¬
long to ? He told me he belonged to the
mixed Knights of Labor and to the Inde¬
pendent Order of Foresters- I put the
direct question to 1dm then: 'Do you

‘No, I do not.’ ‘Do you belong to any

those I said.’ ‘You want to be sure this

cautioned him in some such way as that.
He said: ‘That is all I belong to.’ Sul¬

Important Testimony.
William Neiman was called and his
evidence caused a sensation. Neiman’s
story was that he is a saloon keeper on
School street and Ashland avenue. He
opened his place May 3 and that day
made a contract with O'Sullivan for ice.

Roman Catholicism In America.
The creation of the Catholic hierarchy
in America was due to a bull issued by
Pius VI, Nov. 6, 1780. Pins’appointed
Rev. John Carroll the first bishop of Bal¬
timore, his authority extending over the
entire federal union. When Carroll was
consecrated the population of the United
States was less than 4,000,000, of which
only 40,000 were Catholics. United At the pres¬
ent day there are in the States
about 9,000,000 Catholics. Whereas 100
years ago Carroll was the only bishop,
“there are now,” as Cardinal Gibbons
says, “13 archbishops, 71 bishops, 8,000
priests, 10,500 churches and chapels, 27
seminaries, 650 colleges and academies,
and 3,100 parish schools. There are 520
hospitals and orphan asylums.”
Bishop Hallalletf>'Suggestion.
Methodists are greatly interested in a
suggestion made recently by Bishop M&l-
lalieu in a lecture at Harrisburg, Pa. He
said that the Methodists of Pennsylvania
must soon begin to think of establishing a
national university, at which those who
may be called to preach its doctrines con
be educated and equipped for the great
labor, as well as for the education of
young Dickinson men for all other professions.
Old college, be declared, was
embalmed in memories which made -it
dear to all Methodists. Bishop M&Ua-
lieu's hope is that the time is not far dis¬
tant when Dickinson college will de¬
velop into a magnificent university,
with endowments for its support of from
#6,000.000 to #8,000,000. “Such an in¬
stitution,” said the Bishop, “the Metho¬
dists of the United States can make, and
a good site for it is where Dickinson col¬
lege stands now.**
