The Dickinson press., 1884-12-20

It is stated, apparently upon good au-
thority, that among the more important
questions acted upon by the late Cath
Ole Plenary Council vt Baltimore, and
formulated in DEGREES, it is definitely
determined that while there will be no
general change in the status OF the
Church in this country there will be a
partial adoption of regulations prevail
ing in countries under canonical law in
regard to the removal of parish priests.
One-tenth of the pastors in each diocese
will be i~rremovable except for cause,
which the Bishop must satisfy at &C.
clesiastical court is sufficient to Justify
theremoval of q pastor. A court will be
constituted to each diocese of six of the
most suitable clergymen, known as con-
suffers, whose tenure will also not be
subject to the pleasure Of the Bishop.
Another important decree changes the
mode of selecting three names of clergy
men from whom the Pope appoints a
Bishop when there is q vacancy IN a
diocese. These names ale now selected
by the Bishops of the province. This
will be changed by the decree, and the
consulters and -irremovable rectors will
select the three candidates from whom
the Bishop will be taken. A uniform
catechism will also be adopted.

Thirty Men Perish.

Baltimore, Md, Special Telegram.-A terri

thirty lives, ragged on the IL inst, on the
Chesapeake bay and its tributaries. Fourteen
bodies were washed ashore. The storm
was very destructive among the fleet Of
oyster schooners is the Rappahannock
river The hurricane struck tho boats in
which were twenty or thirty tong men,
who had frcighted their craft with as much as
they could possibly hold and carry in fair
weather. The result was that the boats could
not live in the storm, and consequently sank
with all on board. The men were thrown in
to the raging water, and so far only one, named
Bowers, is known to have escaped q watery
grave. Bowers dashed himself to the mast of his
schooner, and was rescued by a passing
steamer. Many of the crews of the capsized
schooners clung to the vessels for a time, but
ere finally washed overheard and drowned.
A few hours prior to the storm the weather

The shipments of Southern pig-iron
to the Eastern states where it under
sells Pennsylvania iron is q striking
fact connected with the conditions OF
2e iron trade. The Pennsylvania iron
makers say they cannot afford to make
pig-iron for less than $18 atom, and the
price ought not to go below $40 ton;
but Tennessee furnace owners say they
can make it for $l2 q ton and get a
profit. When rates of transportation
are low, Tennessee iron can be shipped
to Cincinnati and even to Pittsburg and
sold at q profit. Ohio iron sent to the
East undersells that made in Pennsyl-
vania. and Tennessee iron sent to Gin
cinnati undersells that made in Ohio.
The inevitable result of these prices
must be, in the end, to transfer the
business of iron-making to those re-
gions where iron can be made cheapest

and coal are found alongside, and lab
