ARCHBISHOP RYAN's SERMON.
The Power OF the Catholic Church as
Shown by Our History

BALTIMORE, MD, Nov. 1O-In his sermon
to-day at the cathedral, Archbishop Ryan
said:
The civil war, which so retarded the progress
OF the nation and all religious institutions, in
Guiding our own. and split up all non-Cathoilc
denominations into northern and southern
organizations, showed forth, as have already
church The war also exhibited her marvel
Gus and well regulated charity. Sisters
OF northern birth and principles nursed south
ern soldiers, and sisters of southern birth and
principles. whose brothers were fighting in the
ranks of the confederate army were found
nursing their northern foes. Hence, since the
war there is a great change in popular aenti-
ment in relation to the Catholic church.

THE NEGROES AND INDIANS.
But, fathers and brethren, while we are
grateful tor the blessings bestowed by Almighty
God on the young church of these states during
the past century, and while we unite in the
glorious ''Te Deum" Of gratitude, we must also
bear in mind that there are statistics of losses
known only to the mind of God that many have
fallen away. To-day we should add to our
Te DeumS' our acts of contribution

could have done more for the colored people
Of the south aud the Indian tribes l am not un-
mindful of the ZEAL with limited resources for
its exercise, Of the southern bishops, nor the
great self-sacrifice of the Indian missionaries,
who, in the spirit of primitive christianity,
gave their life for the noble but most unjustly
treated Indian tribes. But as believe that negro
slavery and unjust treatment of the Indians
are two great blots upon American civilization,
so l feel that in the church also, the most
reasonable cause for regret in the past century
is the fact that more could have been done for
the same dependent classes Let us now, in the
name of God, resolve to make reparation for
these shortcomings of the past. magnificent

country If we are only true to her,

demonstrated that she can live and move on

stitution and most conducive to her progress.
Let us be cordially American in our feelings
and sentiments, and, above all, let each indi-
vidual act out Ia his personal life and character
the spirit OF his Catholic faith.

parties mentioned were taken before
United States Commissioner Thomas r.
Mills, who placed them under a bond Of
$500 each to appear before him on Tuesday.

mond have been emp loyed by the defense,
and no trouble Is expected by them, while
the deputy marshal feels equally sure he
has a good case against the parties The
law is particularly strict, as is shown by the
following section:

authorized by law, makes or causes TO be made,
or utters or passes, or attempts to utter or pass

sPEAKERsH1P OF THE HOUSE.
Mckinley Leads All Others in the
Race at This Stage.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 0-Congressmen
Reed and Mckinley have not arrived yet,
although both will certainly be here within
a day or two. Congressman Cannon, Bur
rows and Henderson are here, and so is
Henry Cabot Lodge, so that the speaker
ship contest may be said to have begun.
Mr.. Reed is still ahead, but the latest in
formation is that Mr.. McKinley's strength
is developing more than even Mr.. McKin-
iey's friends expected. The fact that
Mr.. Mckinley may be redistricted OUT of
the Fifty-second congress does not seem to
affect his canvass. The fact is, the republi-
cans expect to lose the next House and
are only counting on the present. Great
curiosity is expressed by the friends of the
candidates as to how Senators Quay and
Platt stand now. The former was sup
posed to be for Mr.. Mckinley and the latter
for Mr.. Reed, but no recent information
has come from them. Their influence
will be felt of course in the Pennsylvania
and New York delegations
