CARDINAL GIBBONS DELAT
Satisfactorily Explained and Perfectly I'm
derstood.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 7-Referring TO
the recent dispatch from Chicago alleging
that Cardinal Gibbons purposely withheld
the letter which he was deputed to for
ward 10 the Pope in the name OF the
archbishops OF this country until the
appointment of the apostolic delegate had
been announced, the Catholic Standard
Of to-day says editorlally:
"fIis Eminence, the Cardinal, and the
Most Rev. Archbishop OF New York are
both in Philadelphia at the present time,
and we have their joint authority for de-
ciaring this latest story TO be wholly with
out foundation as regards facts and its
ugly insinuations. Archbishop CorriEan
is especially Indignant at this gross i'm
putation upon His Eminence, and he ut
terly repudiates and abhOrs the scanda-
lous publication. The facts are simply
these:
THE letter, not the report which the
Cardinal was deputed to send TO the
Holy Father in the name OF the American
archbshops related to two subjects-one
His Holiness golden jubilee. and the
other the recent conference in New York.
The former event is TO be celebrated on
the 18th Of this month, while the proceed
lngs Of the conference had been already
officially communicated TO His Holiness
by the secretary of the conference, Bishop
Chapelle.
1.-The reasonable delay In transmitting
the Cardinals letter. which has been al
ready explained. could have had no effect
whatever. therefore. either in hindering
or furthering the purpose Of the letter,
and that there was any such motive for
the delay. as is alleged, is certainly and
absolutely false"
The explanation referred 10 in the

At the close of the archlepiscopal con-
ference in New York in November last
the assembled prelates concluded to send
a joint letter 10 the Holy Father, con-
graduating him upon his approaching
golden jubilee. and touching upon other
subjects relating 10 their conference.
This letter was 10 be formulated by the
Cardinal and Archbishop Corrigan, and
by the former forwarded to Rome. Being
a formal letter 10 the supreme head Of the
Church. IL could not be prepared with
the same dispatch as a business letter, but
was subject to such delay as frequent
exchange of the original draft between
New York and Baltimore made una
voidable. The final draft was not agreed
on till the 1st of January when Arch
bishop Corrigan sent 1t TO the Cardinal
who mailed it TO Rome on January 4th
The reference TO Mgr. Satolli is disposed
Of when Il is remembered that the latter
shortly after the adjournment OF the
conference officially reported 10 the Nati-

JUDGE MARTINS CREDENTTALs.
VIII Probably Not be Filed Before the Last
Days Of the Session.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Judge John
Martin. the Senator-elect from Kansas
10 fill the unexpired term of the late
Senator Plumb, now being filled by Mr..
Perkins, under appointment by the Gov
ernor. was on the floor Of the Senate
to-day. His advent in Washington opens
anew the gossip concerning the legality
Of the election, and the probability Of
his being permitted to take his seat. If
Martin follows the advice Of his col
league, Mr. PETER, as he probably will,
no issue in the Kansas case will be raised
until the closing days of the session. Mr.
PETER to-day said that owing 10 the late
ness Of the session which ends this Con-
gress and the fact that Mr.. Perkins un-
derstood the legislation Of interest 10 the
people Of Kansas and had it well in hand
that he had suggested to Mr.. Martin that
he refrain from presenting his credentials
until towards the close of the session
Mr. PETER also stated that he presumed
there would be some discussion over these
credentials, and he did not think il wise
TO interpose anything that would CON
sumo the time Of the Senate. every hour
of which from this time on would be
needed With reference 10 the legality
OF Mr.. Martins credentials Mr.. PETER
said the only question that could be
raised was whether there had been a
legal election. He believed there had
but in the event the Senate de-
cded otherwise, ii would simply result
in an appointment by the Governor, and
the present Governor of Kansas would,
he said, appoint Judge Martin.
