High Dfgnitarfes OF the Catholic Church
La session in New York-Questions Be-
fore IL.
New YORK. Nov. 17-In the marble
palace of Archbishop Corrigan on Mad
1sou avenue to-day the conference OF
the prelates of the Roman Catholic
church OF America began and it may
have results of far reaching character.
The conclave is hedged about with pri-
vacy aud the avenues of public informa-
ton are few. Cardinal Gibbons is said
to be presiding and the occasion gains
unusual interest from the presence of
Archbishop Satolli, the pope's delegate
to this country. Arch bishop Ireland is
present and it is thought he will meet
all inquiries relative to his views on the
American school question.
The educational question, it is be-
lieved, is being thoroughly considered
by the conference. Among other mat
tiers it is understood that Archbishop
Katzer of Milwaukee will ask the con-
ference to accurately define the term
secret" society. This is in Difference
to the wishes of the German Catholics
of the west and is said. to have in view
the Knights of Pythias, the United
Workmen and other societies without
spiritual direction which have profited
by the hberality OF the church, while
in consequence of this Hberality the
benevolent societies which have placed
themselves under the direction of the
church have not prospered to CORE
spending degree.
One OF the main topics considered
will be the relations of the state to the
appointment of teachers in the public
schools as an incident in the general
enlargement of the number and scope
of such institutions The practice OF
removing all sacred pictures and en-
blems from school rooms under com.
promise plan of education will be an
other probable difficulty to be solved

Ivan Petrof, the special agent who

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2.-The steamer
Australia, from Honolulu, brings news
that ON the Goth inst, Honolulu was
thrown into state of excitement blythe
arrest of Agitator Robert w. Wilcox
the leader of the instruction in 1899,
V. V. Ashford and fifteen others on the
charge of being engaged in a treason
able conspiracy against the government.
On the Esd inst their cases came up in
court, but the trial was postponed. The
arrests caused great surprise in the
community, but it is stated that the
resolute action taken by the authorities
is not matter of the past few days
that for many months they have been
on the track of the instigator of the dis
turbance and participators in the con-
spiracy, the success of which would
have resulted in probable dictatorship
under Wilcox. The natives have CON
templated the affair with passivity
bordering on indifference and the in
ference is down that the arrests were
superhuous, as if there had really been
any plan or prospect of an uprising. 1t
is not believed the natives would look
on so calmly at the arrest of their ring
leader. When the steamer left Homo
lulu the town was quiet, without even
any premonitory signs Of trouble.

Palacio may imprison the prelate if he
