FATHER CORRIGAN DEFIANT.
He Again Assails Those Priests Who Are
Attacking American InstitutiOns.

Attacking American Institutions.
NEW YORK. Dec Rev Father Patrick Cor
rigan, of Hoboken, announces in an open letter
to the editor of the Freeman's Journal tonight
that he has been summoned by Bishop Wigger
to stand trial for letters written by Father Cor
rigan in opposition to the enti-Americau spirit
of the late German Catholic congress held in
Newark, and its attack upon the public schools
In the letter occurs the statement that the
father continues to be opposed to two things:
First, the attempt to GerTanize America by
means OF the'chureh; and second, the denunela-
ton of the public schools as denominations.
He says IN part:
My criticism substantially is that which ap-
peared in the editorials of some of the great
daiIies, one of which concluded its leading
article in the words: "What are justified in
saying Is that they who took part II these pro-
ceedings are bad citizens aud dangerous in pro
portion as they are powerful / criticised tina

year outside of his own diocese. to the

from the unanimity OF the press, daily and
weekly. without distinction as to politics or
religion. Archbishop Corrigan and Bishop
till Caheuslyism united them against Arch
bishop Ireland and Cardinal Gibbons.
Father Corrigan says in conclusion:
received two weeks notice of the coming
trial, and when l asked for reasonable extern
sion OF time was peremptoriiy refused; ms
showed how imperfect Is our tentative legisla-
ton, and how completely it places the priest at
the mercy OF the bishop.

CAPT. ROSS CRITICISED.
Did Not Lower a Boat After Wreck of
Bnker & Co.'S Wharf.

No steps have yet been taken toward adjusting
the losses resulting from the falling OF Fl. ".
Baker < Co.'S wharf. All the goods that were
afloat have beet taken out, but no diver has yet
been set to work raising those that sank. IL is
probable some arrangements will be made with
a diver today.
Capt Ross, OF the steamer Haytian Republic,
is severely criticised in some quarters for not
lowering boat to pick up the three men who
went down with the structure. Instead of this
he headed the vessel out into the haTbor and
left the men struggling to climb up on the
wreck as best they could. He did not know
at the time but what there might
have been whole host of people in
side the building when it went down.
Neither could he have known whether there
was a boat handy to shore by which they
could be reached. II is evident that this was
an oversight on the part of Capt. Ross not due
to any lack of feeling, Tor the first thing he
asked Posr-lNTELLIGENCER reporter who
boarded his vessel after she landed was: "Was
anybody hurt?' On being assured that no one
was injured, he replied with evident relief:
I'm glad of that ] was afraid somebody was
killed" No doubt the captain pulled away be-
fore he could fully realize what had happened.

Rev. McCallum's Kidnapping Story Not
Believed by His Flock.

SACRAMENTO Cal, Dec. 1.-The committee of
the NJ. f. church which has been in session in
this city for several days investigating the
charges against Rev. Frank E. McCallum. of Elk
Grove, last night concluded its labors He was
found guilty and relieved OF his pulpit until
the meeting of the conference next September
The preacher was charged with having clan
destinely left his work and with misrepresenta-
ton.
. A couple OF months ago McCalium mysteri-
ously disappeared from his residence enc night
and it was believed he had been robbed aud
murdered and his body hidden away. Finally,
however, he turned up in Omaha. He related q
sensational story to the effect that he had been
bound, gagged and blindfolded by two men who
took him in a carriage to the mountains, placed
him on board train and ordered him 10 leave
the country, with a warning that he would be
killed If he ever returned TO Elk Grove. The
church committee refused to believe his story.
He acted as his own counsel.
