BISHOP WIeeER SUSTAINED.

Different to what was Expected.

some Excitement created by n Decision
Different to what Was Expected.
BAYoNNE, n. j., Feb l4-Bishop
Wigger, OF the diocese of Newark, had
his official orders concerning his con-
troversy with Rev Killecn. rector Of
st. Henry's Roman Catholic church of
Bayonne, promul gated in the Roman
Catholic churches of this city Sun
day. The bishop makes over his sig
nature what many well informed per-
sons consider Wholesale contradiction
of published reports telegraphed from
Washington about Mgr Satoli Bishop
Wigger's letter is construed to sustain
his assertions that. he is victorious over
Father Killeen. The letter created
much excitement and German Cath
olics, together with those who are OPP
posed TO Father Killeen, are jubilant.
Father Killeen was the rector of st.
Thomas church, which Is one of the
three churches in Blyonne. The church
was built for the accommodation of the
English speaking Catholics of the city
and II drew many attendants from ST
Anthony's, the German Catholic church.
This aroused the jealousy of the pastor
of st. Henry's and he appealed TO Bishop
Wigger, who is himself German. The
bishop ordered Father Killeen to close
ST Thomas church and hold services at
ii. lienry's, the German church. This
Father Killeru refused to do, and the
matter was referred by the bishop to
Mgr Satolli
Virtually the decision is n defeat for
Father Killeen, because st. Thomas
church is not TO be reopened except on
occasions and in informal fashion at
the discretion of Father Ahne or the
will of the united parishes of St Mary
and St Thomas, and then only on sec
ular days. Father Ahne said:
Our bishop will probably be accused
of Cahenslyism, since German will con-
tinue TO be spoken in this church
Now, what is Cahenslyism? II is the
earnest desire of bishops 10 keep immi-
grants who cannot speak English from
falling away from the church by Civ
| ing them instruction and eXhortation
| that they can understand which means
| in their own tongue II i" their duty
to do this The immigrant by the time
he has learned English, has fallen
away from the church. The letters to
| Father Killeen and Father Ahne were
the same, except that the former con.
tanned a postscript which promised that
II Father Ahne was removed the bishop
would appoint an English-spealSing
priest"

"Do you know that there are In Mex
leo several thousand Indians who
have fair skins, blue eyes and light
hnir?' asked Il traveller recently.
"Well, its fact. The Muyas, inhabit-
ing the Sierre Madre mountains in the
lower part of Sonora, are supposed to
be the descendants Of the crew and pas
scngcrs of a Swedish vessel wrecked on
the Mexican coast long centuries be-
fore the birth of Columbus
"They have tradition that their an
cestors came in great canoe over the
big salt water many hundred of
moons ago They have never been
conquered by the Mcxicans. They are
nominally under Mexican rule, but are
really governed by their own chiefs.
Whenever the Mexican government in
terferes with them they take up arms,
and they have got the best of every
scrimmagc thus far.
TIE Yarquis are their neighbors,
and these two war-iike tribes have
re siprocity reduced to a science. When
sver the government interferes with the
Yarquis the Mayas come 10 their as
sistance, and vice versa. Mexican
troops can not stand before the Mayas,
or white Indians. They are the most
desperate fighters on the North Amer.
lean continent. Like their ncighbors,
the Yarquis, they are mostly Catholics.
Although quite primitive, almost
savage in their mode Of life, the stand
ard OF morality is high, They live
principally by the chase, but cultivate
some corn and garden truck in the val
leys. The men are large, well-formed,
and some of the women remarkably
handsome blondes They all retain
traces Of their Swedish ancestry, and
the linguists say that their language
evidenced a north European ancestry"
