DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF.

The affairs of the Church of st. Stanslaus Roman
Catholc), at Stanton and Forsyth have recently
become twisted into a complicated tangle. The
congregation is composed partly Of Poles living
IN that quarter of the city. Several months
ago Father Dutkewicz was placed in charge
of the church, and according to most of those
composing the parish he proved an accept
able pastor. Father Dukewicz is short stout
man, with q round cean-shaven face and bushy
irOn-gray hair. While he endeared himself to the
congregation ut large, it is said that he made him
self odous to the trustees by suggesting that in
quiry should be made INFO the condition of the
finances of the church, which appeared to him 10
have been mismanaged. AS sequel to this alleged
impertnenee ON the part of the pastor effort has
been made to displace him. About two
weeks ago new pastor-Father Grabowski-
appeared upon the scene, claiming that he was duly
armed with % commission from the Cardinal. The
old pastor was to be permitted, however to perform
mass and hear confession in the church week days,
hut he could not under any consideration enter the
church as priest SUNDAYS II he did they threat
encd that he would be turned over 81 the police.
Last Sunday Father Dutkewicz started for the
church, hut seeing policemen watching for him, as
he says, he turned back.
Meanwhllc the adhercnts of the old pastOr became
highly indignant, and determined to rally to Father
Dntkewlczs support. They looked upon the new
pastor as an interoper At n recent meeting of tue
parish an unsuccessful attempt was made 10 haI-
monize the opposing elements. The sentiment then
became so strong in favor Oi the Old pastor that the
new pastor, the trustees and few others withdrew
from tue meeting, expressing their disgust on their
way ont Those who remained became iubilant and
