Martinelli, the apostolic! delegate at “'ashington, saying that thei recent decree issued from Rome regard- ing indulgences and other favors from the pope does not-in any way abridge the faculties heretofore held by bishops and archbishops of issuing dispensations for mixed marriages. The message from Mgr. Martinelli was in reply to a request from the archbishop for a ruling on the mat- ter.‘ Archbishop Corrigan of the New York diocese last week sent a circular tc his clergymen which gave rise to the re- portthat no dispensations could be ob- tained during the jubilee year except di- rectly from the Vatican.

CHICAGO, Dec. 28.——Robert Wilcox of Hawaii has arrived in Chicago on his way to Washington to see the president and urge congress to do something for the natives of the island. Mr. Wilcox’s wife is Kaoheliani, a lineal descendant of King Kaoheliani I, the first sovereign to reign over the consolidated islands. Mr. Wilcox said: “The sugar planters were desirous for American annexation, since that meant free entry of their sugar intc They are not sc anxious, however, for the entran ‘ of American labor into their domains. They want cheap labor. They misrepresent the facts and use all their influence tc spread the belief that American white labor cannot live in the islands. That is untrue. There is no reason, either cli- matic or other, that precludes American labor.” ‘ Mexico Ii'emo'v'es'cdfle; Tax.

MEXICAN ELECTIONS. President Dian Seems to lie Stu-e of Another Term. CITY OF MEXICO, Dec. 28.——-The Liberal party general committee invites 3111 citizens of the republic to vote on Jan. 1 for candidates for the presidency of the republic in the period beginning December next year. It is the wish of the national Liberal party committee to procure a full and free expression of the preferences of all citizens regarding the candidates. The convention of the party will assem-~ ble here probably in January to nominate candidates, and the plebiscite is wanted as a guide to the convention in its la- bors. There is a steady stream of letters and telegrams received insisting that Presi- dent Diaz accept the nomination, and it is a remarkable fact that thousands of members of the Clerical party have given their adhesion to his candidacy on the ground that the country’s abounding prosperity requires that there be no change in the executive at this time. It is wholly unlikely that the Clericals will place any candidate in nomination. Two Fall In as Well. - MATAWAN, N. 3., Dec. 28.—Mr. and Mrs. A. L.
