ARCHBISHOP kATZER. i1um, which IS
scarf of white wool embroid-
cred with four purple crosses, is only
conferred upon archbishops, and SO
seldom does an opportunity arise that
the occasion is always made one Of
much consequence. Cardinal Gibbons
arrived in the city on Tuesday night
and brought with him the pallium,
which was sent to him1direct by his
holiness Leo XIII. The occasion was
given unusual interest by the presence
Of noless than roo prelates and priests.
representing almost every state in the
union.
The music was of an exceedingly
high order The choirs had been re-
hearsing for some time, and Beetho-
ven's mass in G major was rendered
with dignity that well befitted the
occasion.
At the conclusion of the pontifical
high mass by 1T. Rev. Bishop Boni-
cum, of Lincoln, the archbishop
elect was vested with full pontificals.
and the cardinal dressed in cape
was seated upon the epistle side
of the sanctuary on the third step Of
the altar. The archbishop elect then
faced the cardinal, and. with clear
and resonant voice. took the oath
of fidelity to the holy see. The
cardinal then placed the pallium
around the shoulders of the archbishop
and assistants pinned it to the other
vestments on the front and
back, and on the left
shoulder with pins mounted in
precious jewels. The archbishop
being thus vested with the full insignia
of the high Office, then impaired q
solemn blessing to the large con-
course present. The ceremony
proper being concluded, Cardinal
Gibbons then addressed the new
archbishop, pointing out to him
his high Office. and asked that the
blessings of God might accompany
him throughout all his ministra-
/ tions of the church of Christ upon
| earth. The cardinal, having con-
cluded his discourse, appropriate SER
mons were delivered by Rish-
| ops Watterson, of Columbus,
O., and Richter. of Grand Rapids,
in English and German respectively.
This concluded the most important
event that has taken place in Catholic
circles in Milwaukee since the eleva-
tion of Archbishop Heiss. The solemn
/ procession was then formed again and
left the church.
After the prelates and clergy had dis
robed the former were conveyed in
carriages and the latter by special
train to st. Francis seminary, where
they were rendered a banquet. About
500 people sat down and the scene was
one of great impressiveness, the guests
representing many orders and com.
munities of the church.

A FRAUD THAT FLoURIsHEs.
Bogus English Estate Agents Find the United

Bogus English Estate Agents Find the United
States Most Productive of Victims.
LONDON, May lin spite of the re-
peated warnings sent from time to time by
the United States Legation here and by the
press of america concerning the fraudulent
character OF so-called English estate agents
in America, recent developments show that
the warnings have been unheeded, and the
number of dupes is increasing instead of
decreasing. During the past few weeks
more letters than ever have been received
from America inquring after imaginary
estates of fabulous sums awaiting the
writers in the Bank Of England. This c0rre-
spOndeHce, as far back as Mr. LOwell'5
time, grew to such enormous proportions
that all letters of this description had TO be
answered by printed circulars. Since Lin
coins term Of Office nearly all the letters
have come from small towns, showing that
the agents find them the most profitable
fields. Texas, Kansas, Iowa and the far
West seem 10 be especially productive,
although letters are received from all parts
OF the United States. OF all the claims in-
Yestgated not one has been found to have
any validity whatever Claimants should
also bear in mind that the Statute Of Lmi-
tatiOns fixes the period within which un-
claimed estates revert 10 the crown and this
period is twenty years. There are no large
sums Of money awaiting claimants in the
Bank Of England
