NEW YORK, Feb. 27.--Two rumors affect
ing Rev. DR.. McGlynn were current to-day
and each is of more than ordinary interest
One of the stories is to the effect that Nc
Glynn is to be reinstated with due formal
ity as priest of the Roman Catholic
church The other is that DR.. McGlynn,
because of illness, has made application to
Bishop Laughlin, of Brooklyn, in whose
diocese he now resides, to act as intermedi-
airy between himself and Rome, and to ar
range for the removal of the ban that was
placed upon him by the Roman authorities
nearly three years ago. Investigation in
dicates that there is a good deal of truth in
both stories. The rumor that Dr. Nc
Glynn is so i'll that he feels it necessary to
be at peace with the church is not true.
Persons IN position to know state that
the policy that has for considerable time
dominated the archd Geese of New York
= has been one that has finally attracted the
Iattention of the Pope and of his advisers.
1T is known that the visit of Archbishop
Georgian to Rome was involuntary. The
archbishop was summoned to Rome to
make clear to the Pope just why his
policy for several years past has been the
cause of constant dissension in his arch
diocese; why it was that he made the
blunder in the McGlynn case that lie
is now admitted TO have made
why he underestimate the character of
the man and of his following. The authori-
ties at the Vatican feel that they have been
placed in false position, and while in
Rome the archbishop, it is said, was made
to feel this fact very plainly. According
TO all the information that can be got the
McGlynn matter is to be settled by Bishop
Loughlin, of Brooklyn, with the probable
assistance of Archbishop Williams, OF
Boston. Although McGlynn is an eN-priest
of the archdiocese of New York, he is
now under the jurisdiction Of the bishop
Of Brooklyn, and the reference of his case
to Bishop LoGghlin means that DR.. Nc
Glynn is almost certain to be once more
placed on the same footing he occupied be
fore ne fell under the displeasure of Arch
bishop Corrigan and Monsignor PrestoI
some three years ago.
The reference of the McGlynn matter
to Bishop Loughlin is a bad blow to tht
opponents of DR.. McGlynn in this city
McGlynn has from first to last been sup
ported by the priests of Brooklyn. Bishop
Loughlin stands high at Rome, despite
little misunderstanding that occurred
few years ago. AS a disciplinarian
theologian and master of the canon law
so far as it exists in the United States, h
is equalled only by Cardinal Gibbons ant
Archbishop Williams, of Boston. How
ever, the mere rumor that in sense DR.
McGlynn has practically won his cas-
causes much excitement in such places q
it has reached. 1t Will be sometime, how
ever, before the final issue is known.
McGlynn was shown copy of the abov
article but refused to say anything i
reference to it. Bishop Louglin woul
not be seen upon the subject He neve
will allow himself to be interviewed.
