WASHINGTON, Aug. lG.-There were
three noteworthy speeches delivered in the
Senate yesterday. One was by the new
Senator from Massachusetts,, Mr.. Lodge,
making an earnest appeal to the Senate for
prompt action on bill to repeal the pur-
chasing clause of the Sherman act.
Another was by the junior Senator from
Colorado, Mr.. Wolcott, who contended
that although the Sherman act was vicious
and illogical, it had nothing to do with
the financial crisis, and its repeal would
do no good and might do harm. The third
was by the senior Senator from Massachu.
sets, Mr.. Hoar, and was a temperate dis
cussion of the whole financial question.
with decided leaning toward bimetallism.
A fourth speech--frst Of all in time of de-
livery-was made by Mr.. Gordon, Of Geor.
gia, in advocacy of a bill introduced by
him to suspend for six months the ten pel
cent. tax on the notes OF State banks.
No action was taken on any Of the pend.
ing resolutions and, at 5;lo. the Senate
adjourned.

Mgr. satoIli Celebrates Mass aud Arch
bishop Cerrixan Delivers an Address.
New YORK, Aug. 10.-The celebration
of mass at St. Patnck's Cathedral yester-
day by Mgr. Satolli was q remarkable
event in the history Of the Roman Catholic
Diocese Of New York.
The great edifice was thronged to the
doors. The Apostolic Delegate occupied
the Episcopal throne on the Gospel side Of
the sanctuary. This was the first time
that any one had been seated there other
than the Archbishop of the diocese of New
York. The giving up Of the throne was an
act of courtesy on the part Of Archbishop
Corrigan.
During the celebration of the mass Arch
bishop Corrigan occupied a new throne,
erected on the Epistle side Of the sanctuary.
Archbishop Corrigan's address called at
tention to the dangerous theories that had
lately come TO the surface in which the
power of the Pope was called in question,
and said it was necessary TO brand these
pernicious errors and that the Pontif had
supreme power that none are allowed to
doubt. In the Bishops oath of allegiance
Is clause that he shall treat a legate Of
the Pope with honor and give him any
necessary aid The Archbishop said:
"Whatever may have been said In public
or private against our guest we put aside
as not to be countenanced for minute,
ard we indorse everything that has been
said In his favor. 1 will not praise him
in his presence, for as Cardinal Newman
has said, 1T is not becoming to panegyrize
those whom we must obey"
