Ant CHURCHES.
Philadelphia dispatch says that Archbishop
Ryans attention having been called to the Gin
cinnau dispatch announcing that Archbishop
Elder had forbidden Roman Catholic vocalists and
musicians to employ their talents in Protestant
churches, and intimating that the PRONUNCIATION
Of the order was the result OF action taken by the
recent plenary council held in Baltimore, Arch
bishop Ryan replied that to the best OF his knOwl-
edge no discussion had been had on the subject at
the plenary council. sit Is long established rule
OF the church, y he said, shat singers and musi-
clans who are members shall not use their talents
in other churches, and / take it that Archbishop
Elder has merely made the announcement to cail
the attention OF those who may have disregarded
the requirement to their offense. The
plenary council, to the best OF my rec
objection, did not occupy any OF its
time with the question: for the reason that no leg
tslatt0n was required. l am not aware that any
vOcaists OF our church here are singers in Protest.
ant churches. The principle is well established,
and the church deals with this Offense as 1t does
with others OF course, II we have members who
desire TO sing in other churches they are at per-
feet liberty TO exercise their individual rights but
the moment they do so they cease to belong to the
1t in the same manner as those who for other Of
lenses have been removed from its protection"
Concerning the decree recently issued by Arch
bishop Ryan, that hereafter the Catholic charities
would not be allowed to accept money raised by
balls the archbishop said there was nothing to
add TO what already had been published. .sThe
plenary council DEGREES it, he said, "and pro-
mulgated the order, and must decline to express
any opinion OF the action OF the council"
