Father Joseph Cirringione, rector of the Italian Chitreh of the Immaculate Conception, at Williamsburg, was found early this morning by policeman Cook, at Fiftyfrst street and First avenue, Manhattan. The priest was standing near a firebox, acting strangely. Cook asked !f he was Father Cirringione, and ha replied, "Yes; I want to go to a hospital." An ambulance was summoned. The priest began raving again, saying, "They're after me. They want to kill me." Then It was decided to take him to the station house. Then he became coherent and in a few moments said: "Last Friday night, two men who said they were detectives came to my house and asked me to go with them. Suddenly they covered my mouth with a cloth, took me to the cellar, tied my wrists and robbed me. They'll get me yet. They will kill me." Then the priest's speech lapsed into Incoherenoy ppain. He was taken to a hospital for treatment. The police believe Father. Cirringione has lost his mind and that the story of abduction and robbery is a phantasy of a diseased mind. President Marroquin's statement as conveyed in a cablegram to General Plaza, president of Ecuador, that Generals Reyes, Caballeros, Ospina and Holguln are now marching on the isthmus to "suppress the Isthmian traitors" has set the entire population of the Isthmus laughing. Protected by the Impenetrability of the land and the many leagues of coast line separating the isthmus from Colombia and conlident that the United States intends to prevent the landing of Colombian soldiers from the Bea, the isthmians feel that their security Is absolute.
