Fansler, of Indiana, moved to appoint a committee to consider the expediency of holding state conventions of Catholics annually. The matter was referred to a committee. The Hon. Honore Mercier, prim* minister of Quebec, made an addresa of some length, in the course of which he eulogized the patriotic services of Archbishop Carroll, and said that Washington had no greater ally than be. Speaking of education, he said: Chicago, Nov. 18.—In the TC. C. T. U. convention a proposed amendment to the constitution to the effect that the union's objects shall be "to institute a unity of Christian women of the nation in nonsectarian and non-partisan temperance work for the reformation of the intemperate and the education of the public sentiment in behalf of total abstinence and the prohibition of liquor, the development of purity, the suppression of vice and orime, and the education of the masses in the duties and responsibilities of citizenship," was lost.

Washington, Nov. 18.—The committee appointed by the Catholic congress, now in session at Baltimore, to present an addrest to the president and invite him to Baltimort called at the White House and were received in the library. J. J. O'Donohue read and presented the address to the president, expressing the hope, in conclusion, that hi would favor the congress with his presenc* at his convenience. The address cited th« faithfulness of the 10,000,000 Catholics in America to their country and its laws. In reply the president said that he recognized and appreciated the sentiments expressed in the address. The Catholics of America were, he believed, law abiding and faithful, and he thought that congresses of the kind u session at Baltimore would be productive oi much good. He said he would be obliged to decline the invitatiou to visit Baltimore oi account of the pressure of public business. The following fourth-class postmasters have been appointed for New York state: C. W. Gay, Glenora; G. E. Wood, Grapevine; Mrs. F. J. Coe, Lycoming, and JaAea Cook, Second Milo. It was then supposed that all the troublesome paper was but of the way, but the other notes came coming in, and it was evident that it was useless to attempt to prevent the crash. Up to Saturday the amount of forged paper was claimed to be $100,000, but since that time new disclosures place the amount at $110,000. Most of the notes are on John Carmichael, the forger's brother, but the name of Craig & Co., of New York, was used freely also. About two weeks ago the forger transferred his paper mill to his brother, John, for $91,000. Some $30,000 is due the employes for wages. Carmichael is confined to his bed from nervous prostration attendant upon the disclosures, and it is not likely he will ever leave it alive.

Prime Minister Mercler's Speech, It was evident from the commencement of the discussion that the feeling of the convention was overwhelmingly against the proposed amendment. Many of the delegates in opposing it characterized it as a reflection upon the previous course of the W. C. T. U. and its previous claims to nonpartisanship. Mrs. Foster, of Iowa, who favored the amendment, made a s. nsational speech which was frequently interrupted by hisses and words of disapproval, although applauded at some points. Choking with emotion as she waved her arms she declared the organization to be partisan, Inasmuch as it had given preference and allegiance and support to one party. Upon this platform, she said, the sentiment had been applauded by this great body of women that non-partisan meant Republican, and from this platform the names of honored men in the Republican party had been derided. This statement was followed by a perfect storm of protests, and the speaker was hissed loudly. It was an injustice, said the speaker, that any woman should be compelled to submit to the invasion of her political preferences at the will of a majority. We in Quebec are determined to be guided in public matters by justice. Thus, when the Protestant minority of lower Canada demanded the right of educating their children in their own schools, the French Canadians and Roman Catholics hesitated not one minute to grant to the Protestant minority their separate schools. In ths some spirit, with no intention of unduti favoritism, but for justice's sake, we gave back to the Roman church, through the Jesuits, the property of which they had been despoiled by the same George 111 who would have despoiled' your fathers of their liberties and rights.

He Shoots His Wife, His Young Son and At the conclusion of Premier Mercier's address Edward F. Fagan, of New York, offered the following, which was adopted: Stockton, Cal., Nov. 18.—C. A. Boss, a preacher living near Lockeford, has just shot and killed his wife, his 8-year-old son and himself. He was a Methodist preacher for several years, but lately had been an itinerant Congregational 1st, engaged in selling books. He had not lived happily with his wife and they separated some time ago. She supported herself and her boy by teaching school near Lockeford, and made her home at the residence of Frank Foster. For some time past Ross had been driving to the school house and taking his wife home at the close of school hours. He did this yesterday and remained with her all night. He arose at S o'clock this morning and shot her through the a pistol, killing her instantly. The re™rt awakened the little boy, who slept in an adjoining room. He rushed into his parents' room, and the father ■hot him twice, in the cheek and temple, causing instant death. Then Ross shot himself in the head and soon died. The real cause of the tragedy is not known. Himself. The witness, an unsophisticated German woman, gave her evidenoe with so muoh simplicity and straightforwardness that nearlj every one in the court room was impress** with the recital. Coughlin and Burke ai first turned pale, and then a look of blank despair settled over their faces. The wit nesfl went on to say that after passing th« cottage she went round on Roscoe street, where she saw a man standing between th« cottago and another house in the shadow. This was near the real estate office, when another witness yet to come will testify that O'Sullivan was on watch while the assassin! were at their bloody work. Prisoners Turn Pale.

He took the ground that the reasons why questions relating to this subject had yet no solution nbsolutely satisfactory to the Christian people of the country as a whole, and one tending to the good of the nation, were the absence of fairness on each side In discussion, the prejudice against the Catholic church still honestly entertained by many Protestants, and the activity of infidels and so called indifferentists in using that prejudice to create division among the great Christian church, Catholic and Protestant. He declared that no one but a madman would advocate the destruction of the mngniflcent system of American public schools. Religion in Education. NF.W YORK IS 8LOW.

George D. Wolff, of Philadelphia, had for a topic "The Catholic Press." He advocated a greater spirit of fraternal unity in the Catholic press, and care in excluding disedifying matter, particularly the objectionable advertisements and mawkish stories.

He ■aid: "You cannot teach children even the multiplication table in a godless school by a godless teacher without hurting the soul, and if the soul be not fed, there is no education. Insolent secularists say two hours a week will suffice to nourish the soul. They have tried it, and we know the result, and we will have none of it; we ask for but justice for the great natural right of every soul. Our state in this matter tramples on human rights. Legislators think they can't be instructed in this matter. They mistake their duty. They also mistake the temper of the American people. Tbey have missed tbe true dividing line between state and human rights. To aid in educating, the state may endow schools and assist teachers. But itself to teach?
