DENOUNCED AT THE ALTAR.
"A Catholic Priest denounced by She
Mother of IA Girl Whom He
Had IusaItsd.

NEW YORK, April 3O--Mrs. Cronin aston
ished the congregation oil 81. Cecilis's Catho-
lie church al the morning MACS on Sunday
by derouncing from the pew Father
Mccarthy, the officiating priest, at the top
OF her voice. She accused him of conduct
toward her daughter, Miss Cronin, a fine
looking girl Of eighteen years, who mas been
the organist OF the church, that in her opin-
ron showed him to be unfit for the sacred
office that he held. After she sat down
Father Mccarthy, from the sltar, denied tbs
accusations, saying that they were prompted
by jsalouey and by chsgrin, because it had
beeB deemed Test TO appoint another person
as orgsnist, aud because Miss CroDin
had been publicly reprovsd from the
altar for loud talking during
the Observance of mass. While
Mrs. Crorin was talking several persons
vent out for policeman, but she quit the
church sosa afterWard and there was no fur
Their interruption of the services. Miss
Cronin said to-day that che complained last
Tuesday 10 her mother that the priest had
irsulted her, but she would mol cay what
wss the nature of the insult, although her
implication WAS pisin ennugh.- She had told
the priest that she would not remain longer
10 be insulted and she had surrendered the
keys 10 the organ. She and her mother had
also been before the bishop with the matter.
Father Mccarthy had big church scam
dal in 1881 over a board bill, and at that
time, too, the parties TO the squSbbie got to
bersting each other during Tho church SER
vices, as in this case.
