FATHER DUcEY REBuKED.

Archbishop Corfigan Forbids His Further
Attendance ut ihe Lexow Investigation.
NEW YoRE, Nov IA morning pa
per says today; When next the Lexow
committee assemblies Go resume its inyes-
tigation into the peculiar methods OF the
police department. it is possible and in
deed probable that ono Of the best known
and assiduous observers Of its proceedings
Will be missed from his accustomed place
In the courtroom.
The person who is likely to be missed
Is the Row. Thomas J. Dueey, rector of
st. Leo's.
From the first meeting Of the Lexow
committee TO its last adjournment Fa-
Their Ducey has watched every passing
phase Of tho inquiry. He has not hesitat-
ed to proclaim the interest which he took
IN each successive revelation and exposure
Of official rottenness
In this he shared a rather widespread
sentiment, nor had it been supposed that
In affirming by his presence in the court
room his anxiety to see New York redeem
cd from its oppressors the reverend doc
tor was committing any sin against his
0loth or against decenoy
This, however, would not seem to be
the view which his superior, Arch bishop
Corrigan takes of the matter. From an
ecclesiastical source it was learned last
night that Father Duoey has been formal
ly forbidden by Archbishop Corrigan to
appear at the Lexow committee meetings.
What answer was returned to this in
junction by Father Ducey is not known.
