CATHOLIC.
Proceedings Of the Old Catholic Core
gress Summarized-A Liberal
Interchange Of Views.

NEW York, September 27.-foreign
files received tonight contain reports OF
the proceedings Of the old Catholic con-
gress. fhs resolution adopted supple
menting the syh0dal order provides that
in addition to the Cothmittee ap-
pointed by last years congress
with the object Of opening nego-
tiations with other religious committees
with the aim Of efecting a union Of the
churches, stib-cOmmittees shall be ap-
pointed, competsnt 10 negotiate, each
separately, with the sepsrnte churches,
namely, the Anglican, Greek, Lutheran
and others. The motion was supported
by Professor Michelis, and at his sugges-
tiJn lt was decided that one sub-cOm-
mittee, dealing more especially with
the churches OF the east, should
have ~ les seat at Munich; and
that another, giving its attention
more particularly to the churches OF the
west, should have its seat at Bonn. Rev.
Mr.. Howson, dean of Chester, conveyed
to the congress his own and the bishop
of Winchester's heartiest good wishes
for the success of the old Catholic move
ment. Bishop Reinkens, on behalf Of
the old Catholics, expressed his gratl-
tude to the English divines.
The Bishop of Maryland, in con-
graduating the Old Catholic bishop,
Reinkers, concluded his speech with
these words: "May I live to sit side by
side with him in a council Of brothers,
gathered to labor and pray and take
sweet council togather.n The same
bishop read a letter from another
American bishop, in which the writer
assures the Old Catholics of the raDid
spreading, and a lively interest
felt concerning their cause in the
United States, concluding as follows:
There were never as many prayers
offered as now that the Old Catholic
mOvent may result in fastening
on the time when, among the
followers Of Christ, there may be one
Lord, one faith and one bap-
tism. In his concluding speech,
Professor Won Schultz stated that for
centuries there had been no such simple
example as the present Of harmony in a
church. Bishop, clergy and laity had
met to determine conjOintly upon their
ecclesiastical affairs. Finally he ex-
horted the Old Catholics to flock
around their bishop, trustfully, faithful.
ly. The assembly cheered the bishop en-
Enthusiastically three times. Bishop
Reinkens once more spoke to thank
other churches represented at the con-
gress and the proceedings were con-
cluded.
