The New York Bishop Addresses Satom
on the Jesuits.

on the JeSuits.
BUFFALO, n. Y, December 10
Bishop Cleveland Coke of the Episcopal
Church has written another open letter
to Mgr. Satrlli. In part he says: THE
Society Of Jesuits is not a church but a
conspiracy"
AS a specification Of his general
charge, Bishop Coke points to the
course of recent events in Buffalo, re-
ferring particularly to Satollfs visit
there and his open utilization with the
detestable element il the citizenship
Of the town that is headed by Lieuten-
ant Governor Sheehan. The Bishop In
stances some OF the outrageous acts OF
the Sheehan party and declares his be-
lief that behind Sheehan has been
operating secretly the malignant in
fluence Of Jesuits.
"You and your retinue OF dIgnitarieS
made common cause with this offender"
he says to Satolli.
SIN Maryland and In this State, the
farce of liberalism having played out,
you dropped your mask and openly
made war on our public schools and
Rrasped at tho sacred fund on which
they depend, to be employed in Jesuit
schools, under an alien priesthood, for
the propagation Of S~heehanized ideas OF
our constitutional rights and safe
guards"
Il close this letter." said the Bishop,
''by quoting the words Of Washington
himself as showing what he would think
of you. Thus he has taught me and all
his countrymen: Against the insidious
wiles OF foreign influence c~onjure
you TO believe me, iellow-citizens-the
jealousy OF q free people ought to be
constantly awake, since history and ex'
%perience prove that foreign influence is
