BISHOP LoUGHLIN's SUCCESSOR.
Archbishop Corrgan has refused the re-
quest of the Brooklyn priests that the names
of local candidates for the vacant Long Island
bishopric should be forwarded to Rome. A
meeting # Brooklyn priests was held IN the
AthenHum aud these candidates were nen-
toned. The Rev. James IL. Mitchell. the Rev.
Martin Carroll and the Rev. t. }. Mcnamara.
All three are well known tor their learning
and piety
The Archbishop had proceeded. however,
according TO the usual method IN such cases.
When il became Tumored that he intended 10
send to Rome the names OF certain priests
who were not resident IN the diocese. the
Brooklyn clergy determined 10 send delega-
ton to him TO request that the names OF the
local candidates should be sent also. The
delegation called on the Archbishop last Mon
day. 1t comprised Rows. r. j. McHoldIicK,
j. j. Durick. L. j. Kenny. John . Hara. John
Wood and John Henselman. They were re-
celved cordially by the Archbishop, but their
request was refused.
It is not believed that the priests will take
any further action in the matter. There Is
some talk of sending the names OF the local
candidates TO Rome, but only few have been
found TO favor this.
FIGHTING SPONGE TRUST.
Until last July four wholesale sponge uruls
in this city. which virtually controlled the
sponge trade of the country. each had buyer
at Key West where the sponge fishermen OF
Florida offer their supplies Tor sale. These
firms decided that it would be advisable to
have only buyer at Key West, and trust has
been established.
One result is that the price paid the fisher
men has been cut down. and another Is the
price charged by the combine has gone up
The fishermen were reduced TO starvation
point They sent communication TO the
Vollman Sponge Company on William street,
and this firm sent representative 10 hey
West last Saturday. who bought from the
/ fishermen at an advanced rate. When the
/ combine learned this they reduced the price
TO the trade. The Vollman company has now
sent corps of statesmen on the road with In
structions to slash prices. The combine has
sent cut circulars Offering spOnges at very
low prices Druggists are prohtng by the
fight.
