He Seeks Legal Prevention of Interior
ence with Father BarabRSz.
! BALTIMORE, Dec. 5.-Cardinal Gibbons
has decided to mix law with religion, and
TO that end got out an injunction against
certain memberS of the Polish Catholic
church in this city in favor Of it's pastor,
Rev. Mieczylaw Bsra basz, restraining
them from interfering with the collec-
tons OF house rents, pew rents school
fees, Sunday collections, etc, and also
from interfering with tho pastor in tho
discharge Of his duties. The defendants
hope to get the injunction removed.
| Father Barabasz is not popular with
some of the congregation, hence tho trou-
BILE. lie was appointed by Cardinal Glib
bons some fifteen months ago and took
full charge of the affairs Of the pastorate,
much TO the chaRrin of n committee who
had been attending TO the money matters
of the church under the former pastor.
Several fights have occurred between
members of the congregation. and have
on more than ono occasion been carried
into the criminal court. For several Sun
days policemen have been stationed at he
church to preserve order
The committee claim they have the
right TO take care Of all collections, but
Cardinal Gibbons says in his bill that, ac-
cordiug TO the government and discipline
OF the Catholic church the sole right Of
appointing the pastor rests with the arch
bishop of Baltimore, that Father Bara bass
is the legal appointee, and that the com
mittee has no legal existence.
