BosToN, Mass, March l6.-The Pilot con
tains an interview between Archbishop Ire
land and its correspondent in Rome, from
which this import passage is extracted:
~ am glad to be able to say that the
Roman authorities. both at the vatican and
the propaganda, declare themselves deter
mined to maintain the heirarchial unity OF
the church in America and to allow no effort
70 be made In the name of religien toward
retarding the assimilation of the different
populations in America and encouraging the
political aud social unitcation of all the ciu-
2ens of the land. But, strange TO saw, this
determination of Rome does not prevent con-
stant renewal of efforts to defeat this
end. There arc people in America
and Europe who are under the positive be-
lief that the country is wild Congo, to be
partit,oneu off into SO many foreign colonies
as distinct from ono another US language,
ideas and customs can make them Many of
the European Catholic papers are enlisted to
the movement. The Catholic papers of Cor
many are today vertable curiosity, teem-
ing week after week with statements most
false about the church in America aud the
bishops Of America, who are supposed to be
at all times tinged with patriotic American
feeling. 1 am sorry to say that most
of the articles written In this spirit
and manifestly arc such. as evi-
dence the local coorinc given TO the
misrepresentation contained in thonL A
short time ago at "a general Catholic inter
national congress ut Liege, Belgium, two
gentlemen appeared, Mr. Peter Cahensly
and Rev. Mr. Nillenouvc, dariDg to make in
open scs sion the statement that the church
in America, because of it's neglect OF for
eigners, had lost 2O,00o,000 Cahensly re-
peated the lie in his famous memorial OF last
summer, although reduced somewhat in its
proportions. Rsv. Mr.. Nillenouve is at
present in Romc ana ! have no reason
whatever to put trust in hls movements; his
virulence may say showing itself particu-
larly in opposition to the bishops of tho

HASTINGS, Neb March 16.-[Special Tele.
gram to The BEE. The continuation of the
case Of the state against A. ID. Gocum, charged
with the murder Of Myron Van Fleet, was
continued today in the district court. The
session was devoid of interest, as nothing
was done beyond the examination of Jurors.
OF the fifty jurors summoned under the spo-
cial venire thirty reported. The condition of
tho roads IN this county precludes the quick
answer of the summons Until adjournment
in the afternoon tifty-three jurors had
been examined. or these twenty-eight
have been excused for cause on
the examination by the state. Two have
been dropped for the same reason. Four
jurors claimed their exemption on statutory
grounds. One was excused for disability.
The state has used two OF its six peremptory
challenges and defense four of theirs. II is
not probable that permanent jury will be
obtained before Friday night. Judge Beall
has made the ruling that although juror
has read the newspapers he is still COM
potent Juror if he is confident that he can
give fair and impartial verdict after hear
ing tue testimony. A second special of sixty
names has been issued by the court.
