WASHINGTON. Dec. 24-The famous
ca of Father McGlynn. of st.
Stephens church. has finally been
decided by the restoration to him of
authority to perform h 5 priestly func-
tions. The settlement of the case
came within the scope of the general
power vested in Mgr. Satolli, the papal
iegate. and the decision was prornul-
gated by him Friday night at the
Catholic university where he is stop
ping.
The case was first formally present
ed to Mgr. Satoili on Wednesday last
by Father Burtsell, McGlynn's friend
and adviser throughout his controversy
with the archbishop. which resulted in
the suspension of the priest and his
practical accommodation
lie presented the plea of the deposed
priest, az the close OF which Mgr.
Satolli told him To return TO New York
and communicate to DIR. McGlynn a
message from him (the monsignor).
The purport OF this message can only
be surmisea, but il is believed to have
contained statement of the conces-
sions required to be made by him in
order that his plea might receive favor
able consideration.
DIR. McGlynn's reply was brought to
Washington Friday morning by Father
Burtsell, and he and Mgr. SatOlli were
in consultation over the matter. The
presence of DIR. McGlynn's friend in
the city became known, and as a result
reports were circulated as to the action
of Mgr. Satolli in the matter.
AT late hour Friday night the fol-
lowing statement was furnished by a
representative of Mgr. Satolli:
ITO end the many contradictory kilograms
sent out IL is thought expeden: TO state that at
Q O'Clock p. m. DIR McGlynn was declared free
from ecclesiastical censures and restored TO the
exercise of his priestly functions, after having
satisfied the pOpe's legate on all .he points in
his case"
The effect of this decision by Mgr.
Satolli is limited. II enables Father
McGlynn to serve as priest in any par
ish to which he may be assigned. A
return to his old fold at st. StepixsA 5
is subject for further consideration,
and must be settled, the authorities
here say, by Arch bishop Corrigan, of
New York.
1.-THE course taken by Rev DIR. Edward Nc
Glynn, pastor of St Stephens church. in advo-
eating the principles of Henry George and in
actively supporting that radical social philoso-
pher as candidate for mayor in 1886, was
striking departure from the precepts Of
the vatican by which the Catholic clergy
are supposed to be governed 1t natu-
rally brought the independent priest
under the surveillance OF the ecclesiastical au-
thorities. and when, after the election DIR. Nc
Giynn's political views continued to find a wide
circulation through the medium of newspapers,
Archbishop Corrigan rebuked him in a pastoral
letter. This reprimand was followed by the
suspension of DIR. McGlynn from his pastorate
and peremptory summons to Rome TO answer
for his conduct before the tribunal Of the prop

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24.-President
Harrison may, ii ne be SO minded, have
the privilege of appointing another sec
rotary of state before the close of his
official term. Hon. John w. Foster
will lay down the portfolio of
state on February and leave
for Europe. His objective point
will be Paris, where the court of
arbitration in the Behring sea contro-
versy Will hold their sessions. Some
months ago. before Gen. Foster was
appointed to succeed Mr. Blaine, the
president had selected him to represent
the United States as special counsel be-
fore the court of arbitration. 1t was
expected after Gen. Foster became sec
rotary of state that another gentleman
would be chosen as special counsel. The
president, however, feels that Gen. Eos
ter's experience fits him especially to
discharge the duties of the place, and
that at his suggestion Gen. Foster will
leave the state department in time to
attend the first meeting of the board.
