New YoRK, July ls,-The Rev. DR.,
Edward McGlyRu spent the greater
part Of yesterday at the Pierrepont
house, Brooklyn, whore he was visited
by several Of his friends and supporters,
Tho doctor is still disinclined to talk
OF his own troubles or to even hint at
what the future is likely to bring forth
in regard to either his recall to St.
stephen's parish or other disposition OF
him by the church authorities, He is
satisfied with his restoration to tho
priesthood and his vindicatIop by the
pope. DR.. MCGlynn is, however, will.
ing to talk OF what he intends doing in
theimmediateiuture Of his own volitioR.
and also OF the injustice done him by
certain newspapers by means OF bogus
interviews,
"For instance" said the doctor to a
reporter, there was m alleged inter.
view with me in Chicago, published in
a Brooklyn paper, in which statements
were attributed to me in regard to
Bishop Mcdonnell. never made any
such statements, and no reporter inter-
viewed me. / have declined to be in
terviewed on such a subject and no ono
has succeeded yet in getting me to
talk"
The doctor said he would speak next
Sunday evening at Prohibition park,
Staten Island, ut 8 o'clock. on the invi-
tation OF his friend, the Rev. DR.. Funk.
His subject would be Christ and tho
Poor; Why tho Poor Heard Him Glad.
w." On the invitation OF DE. s. Il,
, Young he would lecture at Asbury
Park July 20, aud ut u later date ha
would attend there the so'called Ma.
tional Service. 1t was called National
Service to distinguish it from u purely
religious service, but q few hymns
would be sung that no sectarian would
object to, and neither could any n OBJ
jet to the repeating OF the Lords
Prayer,
WILL PREACH ANYWHERE.
The doctor has also been invited to
speak ut the auxiliary congress in
Chicago next month, 81 am also
asked" the famous priest continued,
'to speak by the Free Religious Society.
Now, that some Of the narrow ittle PEG.
pie may not BIO scandalized, l had per.
haps better explain. While some OF
the members Of this society may be
Free Thinkers, all are welcome to free
dom OF speech. l shall have my Sun.
day and conduct my own services and
have my own say. The services will
be in the Festival Building, in Jackson
Park, where Theodore Thomas holds
concerts. Now, even Cardinal Gibbons
is having some little people howl at him
because he takes an interest in the
church congress ut Chicago and will 60
there and read q paper, or il not able
to attend will send the paper to be read.
Archbishop ireland, or, as somebody
has called him, the 'Sanctthed Biz.
zard,' is also interested and will pre-
side at the Auxiliary Congress. II a
man has the truth in him, who should
he be afraid to go and speak the truth?
These little people hold up their hands
and say: oh, there arc heretics in
there; don't come in contact with
them II they are heEetics, all the
more reason for having them hear the
truth, st. Paul didn't refuse to 90 and
preach in u place because there was
some n there with red hair, Bishop
England, Of Charleston, the most noble
Of mon, when he came hero from Cork
wal not afraid OF heretics, but went
around and preached from Protestant
pulpits all over the land"
BLESSED ny TIE POPE.
Asked Us to the services he would
hold Mt tho FREQ religious meeting the
doctor said: "Vell, l shall make a
prayer or read a prayer and 1 shall have
hymns sung. One of the hymns will
be Cardinal Eewman'a Lead, Kindly
Light l should like to hear tho little
people who would object to that. 1t
was written, of course, while be was
still a young Church of England clergy
man, but it would DO all the same II
written by John Wesley. Ono Of the
most beautiful hymns sung in English
at Catholic services was written by
John Wesley, and how many know this
fact2 I am free to admit that the Eng
lligh church has given us our most
beautiful hymns. ] am sound in my
theology and have remained so through
out all my trial. and such theologiaus
as Cardinal Gibbons and DR.. Burtsell,
who was my counsel, have no doubt as
to its soundnoss, and i am not afraid to
speak tho truth In any place or before
any a%ssemblage."
Speaking OF the pope he said, with
something in his voice OF the child
speaking Of Its father: "The holy
father received me with tho utmost
cordiality and kindness, and when l
was about to leave he said; "Now arc
you eatisled?' l said, Yes, more than
satisfied and as l asked him to bless
me- he placed his hand on my head,
and when l begged him to do 1t in a
more formal manner he gratiied my
