DR., COLLINS MISSION.

The Decree of the Catholic PIcnary
Council Presented to the Pope.
Baltimore, Nov. ll--Rev. DIR. ID. j.
O'Copnell, who was commissioned by the
late Catholic plenary council to bear the
DEGREES formulated by that body to the
pope, returned to this city this morning.
after having completed his mission.
DR.. O'Oopneil on his arrival immedi-
ately repairtd to the archepiscopate resi-
denoe and delivered the decrees to the
apostolic delegate and president of the
council, Archbishop Gibbons. In re-
ply to questions asked concerning the
nature OF the DEGREES, DR.. O'Conpel said
he had no information concerning them
to give. And when asked whether the
statements published in some papers as
to their nature were well founded, he in
quired what they were, and seemed sur
prised at the absurdlty of much which
has found it's way into print tinconnection
with the work of the late council. He
then stated in general way that there
was nothing in the DEGREES of radical
or of q political nature. The Catholic
church was not follower or supporter
of any political party or system. The
decrees dealt with family matters inside
the Catholic church. Their ultimate
purpose was merely to further broader
and more plentiful the diffusion of the
benefits OF christianity. Concluding
his remarks on this subject, DR..
O'Connell said: "Ihere is nothing con-
tanned IN the DEGREES which is not wholly
within the scope 1 have mentioned"
Anything more explicit or clrcumstan-
tial than this the revernei gentleman
saidEthat it would be improper for him
to give at present.
It will be remembered that anticipa-
tions were entertained in some quarters
that DR.. O'Connell, on his return from
Rome, would be able to throw some
light on the vexed question as to wheth-
or or not there would be another Ameri-
can cardinal, and whether Archbishop
Gibbons would receive thai dignity in
case another red hat was sent to the
United States. When questioned con-
cerning the cardinalate he said he knew
nothing about it and heard nothing dur.
ing his stay in Rome to indicate wheth-
er another American prelate would re-
ceive the honor or not. DIR. O'Connell
said that when he left Rome Pope Leo
was in excellent health. The doctor
seems to have enjoyed his visit to the
eternal city very much, and is very
we'll pleased with the result of his MISS
ion After completing his work in con-
nection with the decrees DIR. OConnell
will return to Rome to assume the
duties of his position as rector of the
American college.

Clay, MoCook, Yankton, Lincoln, Han
son, Beadfe, Buffalo, Roberts, Kings.
bury, Brown, Sully, Charles Mix, Law.
renee, Minnehaha, Union, Hughes, Davi-
sou, Sanhorn Brule, and Aurora.
In these counties the vote for the con-
stitution was 12,475 and against the
constitution 1886, majority of S,939
for the constitution.
The twenty-one counties give pro-
bibition vote of 1866 for. to S,054 against
majority thus far of 4sS against pro.
hibition.
For minority representation in
the twenty-one counties 5,94S votes
we're cast and against minority repre-
sentation 6,970, majority of l.02s
against minority representation.
There are yet twenty eight counties
to hear from.

figures from Buffalo and Charles Nil
add 143 to the Pierre column. On the
other hand Pierre figures itself SO!

Pierre has credited itself in four coun
ties with 201 too many votes and hal
failed to give itself in three counties 4E

tion Of 152 from the Pierre table as il
stands in the Free Press. This same
table in two counties gives Huron 81

it is entitled to, net gain of 81 fol
Huron over the Pierre figures. Our cor
rections represent only the counties
from which we have heard from off
cially. Pierre also claims l 200 majority
in the Black Bills. Lawrence county
gave it 1926 majority over Huron, leaving
S75 majority to be gained in tie sparsely
settled counties of Pennington, Custer
Butte and Fall River. A close analysis
OF the figures presented byPieEr erenderl
it almost certain that Huron has plu.
