ANOTHER CATHOLIC REVOLT.


Father Degen Opposed in an Attempt
to Change the Hour OF Vespers by
His Conxrega tion-Great Indignation
Against the Priest.
CAPE MAY, N. j., August q 1874
Sacred concerts were this morning assaiied from
the altar by Father Degcn at the catholic church.
He said that in the Catholic church alone could
sacred song be with propriety chanted, and de-
nounced the Stockton, Congress Hail and Columbia
House concert guests in unmeasured terms His
argument was that only music composed tor sea-
side concerts should be used, and that Catholics
were obliged to attend vesper service. which he
fixed tor eight O'Clock p. M.
After mass the Philadelphia, Baltimore and New
York Catholics informally met in front Of st.
Mary's church and denounced the priest as In
trud1ng on Catholic USAGE by having vespers at
night instead OF in the q tcrnUon, as ordered by
the statutes OF the diocese. Indignation runs
high and the case Is to lie reported to Bishop Cor
rigan at Newark. The indications point to the
fact that Father Degen desired TO orce vesper at
tendance at an unusual hour, and was chagriped
At seeing thousands assembled 10 enjoy the vocal
concerts at the hotel. AS lar as can be ascer-
tanned the rubrics OF the diocese OF Newark pre-
scribe hapast three O'Clock as vesper aour.
The action OF Father DeQen Is regarded as posi-
lively against Catholic usage, and the entire
Catholic community is In revolt. Father U'NeiI,
of the Philadelphia Cathedral celebrated late
mass to-day, but made no remarks. The visiting
priests here condemn Father Degen, and the
Bishops formal condemnation Is looked for.
