He Did Not Delay Sending His Letter to

PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 7.-Referring to the

Cardinal Gibbons purposely withheld the

New York are both in Philadelphia at the
present time. and We have their JOINT author
ity for declaring this latest story to he
wholly without foundation as regards it's
facts. Archbishop Corrigan is especially
indignant at this gross imputation upon
his Eminence. and he utterly repudiates
and abhors tho scandalous publication.
The facts are simply these: The letter did
not contain the report which the Cardinal

Chance to Disarm Criticism by Giving His
Views on the Relation of Church and State.

NEW YORK. Feb. mgr. Satolll, the
apostolic delegate. has been asked to give
his views. as the represen tative of the Pope
in this country. on q proposed amendment
to the Constitution advocated by the Ma
tional League for the protection of Amer.
loan institutions. The objects of the league
are to secure constitutional and legisla-

nOminatlonal appropriations of public
funds" AS q step to this end the league
proposes to secure the passage of the fol-
lowing amendment to the Constitution of

dietary committees of both the Senate and

No State shall pass any law respecting an es-
tabishment of religion or prohibiting the free ex-
ercise thereof. use its property credit any
money raised by taxation, or authorize, either to
be used, for the purpose of founding. maintaining
or aiding by app opration, payment for services,
expenses, or otherwise any church, RELIGIOUS de-
nomination or religious society, or any institu-
tion, society or undertaking which is wholly. or
III part under sectarian ecclesiastical control.
This proposed amendment has peen IN
dorsed by Baptlsts, Methodists, Presby.
terans. United Presby terians, Episcopa-
llans, Congregstionalists and others. The
league has received assurances that Mgr.

WASHINGTON, Feb. TN marked con-
trast with the interest taken in the pro-
ceedings of the House yesterday was the
lack of atten ton paid to the routine busi-
ness of to-day. And yet the House yester.
day accomplished nothing. To-day it made
fair progress with one of the great appro-
prlation bills. The legislative bill appro-
pirates upwards of s21 500. 600. yet aside from
review of4he condition of the treasury
by Messrs. Dingley and Dockery - di-
vergent views-and an attack on the civil
service law by Mr.. Dearmond, the pro-
oeedings were uninteresting. During the
discussion Mr.. Dingley said that the ap-
preparations by this Congress would reach
one billion and rty-elght millions
against nine hundred and eIghty-eIght
millions made by the Fifty-frst Congress.

Amendments offered respectively by Mr..

great deal of debate. and the Senate was
compelled to spend part of q number Of
executive sessions in its consideration.
The opposition was led by Mr.. Turpie. who
has all along been the champion of tho
