Cahensiyism Is Dead.

Archbishop Ireland, in an interview in Chi
cago last week. declared that the latest decision
of the Vatican is not merely g judgment Of
federation as applied to the individual In
stances of Faribault and Saltwater, but pos
sesses wider Significance.
The Archbishop said: =" Rome deals with
concrete cases. considering all the questions
and facts they involve. and then adopts rule
which is intended to apply to all other cases
presenting the same state Of facts. The de-
cision of the Vatican in reference tc the Fari-
baut and Saltwater cases is that the same ex-
pedient may be adopted in any other case
where the same circumstances exist"
"Then the system may. under the decision
of the Pope, be extended in American"
"Assuredly it can; in any parish where the
narochial schools labor under the same dith.
culties that were encountered in those parishes,
the same arrangement may be made"
"Do you think that in view OF the con-
dition of the Church in America the system is
likely to be extended ?"
"Ah, that ia another question, which do
not care to discuss"
When questioned on the subject Of Cahensly.
ism, the Archbishop said: "Cahenslyism is
dead. The question is settled forever" OF
the letter by the theologian Zimmerman, OF
Freiburg, reviving the Cahensly idea, Arch
bishop Ireland said: Zimmerman is fool.
and his letter is an insult to the patriotism OF
the American people,"

The Worlds Fair.

Mr. Hesing, one Of the Directors of the
Worlds Fair. has expressed himself as being in
favor of doing without the Government appro-
priation of 100000 rather than close the Fair
on Sundays. President Baker has also declared
that the Sunday. closing bill is not acceptable
in its present form. The majority of the Di-
rectors are against the bill and are hoping that
the House will not concur in the amendments
made by the Senate. Ono of the strongest ar
guments advanced against the closing of the
Fair on Sundays is that such an action will
drive great numbers of visitors to saloons and
gambling houses. which will be wide open for
their reception.
With two exceptions all the great buildings
are practically finished. the only remaining
work being that of decorating and finishing
the interiors. On some of the buildings work
is being pushed is hours day.

United States notes and Treasury notes
There arc now in the Treasury Sill GU ,257,
of which amount sl00 900 are held in re-
serve for the redemption OF United States
notes. and the balance is free gold, payable for
any purpose. 1t is from this fund that the
foreign bankers are drawing SO freely. and the
question among the home bankers is how to
check this depletion of the supply. They mean
to hold on to their gold certificates aud force
the Government to redeem its paper according
to its promises. Notwithstanding the fact
that about 10 per cent. Of tho customs recei pts
comes in gold coin, the supply Of free gold is
rapidly diminishing.
