GROWERS ODD APATHY
England Almost Invited to Seize
Hawaii.
The Facts Disclosed by Walkers
Report Have Excited the lndig-
nation of Congress.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 20-The correspond.
ence of Admiral Walker with relation to
Hawaii, which was so long concealed by
the State Department and which was
published only yesterday in re, ponse to
demand Of the Senate, has excted wide
omment in Congress. The last report of
Admiral Walker, written on his way
home in August. which frankly and fear
lessly stairs The situation. attracts par
tirular stiention as disclosing the indif-
ference of this administration as to the
fate of Hawaii a, d the danger threatened
of England's interfering to get control by
the restoration Of the monarchy or other
interference with the new Government.
The fact that, in spite of the urgent recon-
meudation Of Admiral Walker that an
American vessel should be KEEP, here and
the warning he gives of the danger to
American interests. there is still n United
States naval vessel in those waters is re-
garded as most ex raordinary, ana is CON-
mented upon as amounting almost to an
offer to England TO carry out any policy
the may deem desirable as to the Hawaiian
Islands.
The action OF the administra ion in this
matter is very earnestly denounced by
those who believe that no foreign Govern
ment should be permitted to interfere in
Hawaiian affairs. The vigorous and frank
language of Admiral Walker as to the
efforts of the British representative In
Hawaii to establish British influence is
regarded as furnishing the best possible
reason for the maintenance of a naval
force in those waters, and the failure to
do so is regarded as tantamount to an
abandonment of American interests and
of the declared policy of this country not
to permit foreign interference In the
affairs of the islands.
A resolution will be introduced in Con-
gress, probably In both houses, looking TO
the immediate ordering of one or more
naval vessels TO Honolulu. Senator Lodge
of Massachusetts is will Urohaby introduce
the resolution in the Senate. The exact
form in which the resolution will be
drawn is not yet decided on. 1t may come
in the form of an inquiry as to why
naval vessel has not been kept at Homo
lulu, bu. it is more apt to be an express
sion OF opinion by Congress that naval
force sufficient to maintain American
prestige and to prevent foreign interfer-
ence in the affairs of Hawaii should be
sent at once to Honolulu.

RATHER A DOUBTFUL STORY.
With a Second Story Which Throws
Even More Doubt Upon the
Original Cne.

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-A special to the
World from washington says: Mgr.
SaIoli. the Papal Ablegate. through his
secretary. DR.. Papi, confirms the statement
that the Rev. Edward McGlynn has made
peace with Archbishop Corrigan. The
secretary said Father McGlynn's letter to
Ar chbishop Corrigan had led to the settle
ment of all differences between them,
The letter was entirely formal and an
nOunced that the writer was ready to rec
ognize the authority of the Archbishop,
and he expressed his willingness to submit
to the will of his superiors in the church
and asks that he be given some position in
the AreAbishop's diocese.
DR.. Papi states that Archbishop COrri-
gan was pleased to receive the letter, as he
likes and admlres Father McGlynn. He
has desired the reconciliation for some
time, and only required Father McGlynn
to recognize the authority bestowed upon
his Grace by the church. Mgr. Satolli, ac-
cording to DR.. Papi, took great in terest in
the matter and had part in bringing
about the reconciliation. While the doctor
would not give the details of the proceed
ing, yet he left 1t to be understood that it
was through the papal delegates efforts
L
not certain that Father McGlynn will be
assigned to duty by Christmas day, nor
what will be given him, but that he has
been restored to full favor is certain, and
a place in the church work will follow.
KINGSTON, N. Y, Dec. 20.-The Rev.
DR.. Burtsell of this city said to-day that
he felt called upon to make statement in
regard to the restoration of Rev. DR.. Nc
GlynD and his present standing in the
priesthood. In accordance with this state
ment he furnished the following to the
Associated Press for publication:
"Dr. McGlynn, from the day he was re-
lleved from accommodation by Mon
signor Satolli, was priest in good stand
ing in the diocese of New York, and simply
by his own wish no proposition was
made to nave him appointed TO any par
tieular locality. Monsiguor Satolli gave
! him letter recommending him to all the
Bishops OF the country, and suggested tha;
he be allowed to exercise his rights as a
minister in any diocese he might be in for
the time being.
ut was always understood, however,
that DR.. McGlynn had no thought of sew
ering his connection with the diocese of
New York to which he belonged Mon
signor Satolli at that lin cared posi-
lively that DR.. McGlyn -achings on
the land question were no IN any sense
contrary to the doctrines of the church
and he was as free to maintain them as
any one would be to assail them, because
they were question of political economy.
IL was entirely by DR.. McGlynn's own
volition that any application for local
position was prepared at the present
time"

Secret Societies and the Catholic
Church.
The Rule Comes Direct From the
Holy See That All Are Alike

WASHINGTON. Dec. 20.-Monsignor Sa-
toll, the apostolic delegate. says any in
formation concerning the recent letter to
Bishop Mcdonnell affecting secret societies
must come from the Bishop. The Able
gate says his only Office in the matter was
to transmit the communication exactly as
it came from Rome, and that it involved
no action or ruling on his part. He was
asked If the ban Of the church was to be
placed on other secret societies than the
Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and Sons
of Temperance, but he declined to give
any information as to how specific societies
were affected. or what punishment wou ID
be visited upon their individual members
in case they continued their membership.
a high ecclesiastical authority outside
of the delegation stated that 1t was
his understanding that the action of the
church was against secret societies In gen.
eral rather than a specific society being

verified from the Ablegate. He insisted
that as he was merely channel of COM

should be the person from whom informa-

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, Dec. 20-An Asso-
ciated Press reporter called to see Bishop
McQuaid at st. Bernard's Seminary this
evening In regard 10 the decree of inter-
diction against secret societies. The
Bishop said: ''The decree came directly
from the Holy See and Is simply a cor

many years in the church. 1t is in
Latin. and owing to the fact that
it is to be translated, which requires
some time. will not be able to give it out
until after New Years. Up to four or
five years ago there was no question
about this matter, but at that time some
unauthorized persons gave it out that the
ban of the church had been removed from
all secret societies except the Masons.
The matter was brought to our attention
aud we investigated it, finally referring it
to the Holy See. The decree is against
the Odd Fellows. Knights of Pythias.

Mr.. Williams has, by his latest action, re-
leased him from a most uncom forta BILE

claims.
II can't understand it," said Mr.. Ashe.
WILLIAMS is the last man on earth that
would expect to do me favor, but in this
particular instance he has lifted an un-
profitable and disagreeable burden from
my shoulders, and unless he has something
under cover, his action is inexplicable to
me. II cannot be due to his disinterested
friendship for Door Mrs. Terry. for I only

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-Jack Dcwney of
Brooklyn and Eddie Loeber of Williams
burg fought one of the liveliest prize
fights in years at Stamford, Conn, last
night before an audience of about 600 peo-
pie. The fight lasted sixteen rounds.
In the sixth round, when Loeber was

him from further castigatiop. Dominick
McCaffery, however, who was spectator,
interfered and drove the seconds outside
the ropes.
In the thirteenth Downey landed on
Loeber's left eye and closed it. In the six

mill with knockout, Loeber's seconds

his present naval force being sufficient
without this emergency squadron of two.
An officer of the Nictheroy has been ap-
preached by the Chinese agent and asked
to name the terms under which be would
navigate the vessel to Wei-Hai-Wei. and
serve three months thereafter in the war
against the japanese. He demanded
$4,000 for the former and $4,000 for the lat
ter service. The purchase OF either or
both of the vessels would depepd upon
the enlistment of several officers and part
of their crews. THIS is why the Chi
nese agent treats with Mendonca
instead of with the authorities at
Rio. The Zainski dynamite gun on the
Nictheroy is the main reason why China
wants the vessel. 1t served its purpose in
the Brazilian war by inspiring terror
among the insurgents rather than by any
real service. The Chinese agents think it
will serve the same purpose against the
Japanese. Indeed, Mendonca's enemies
are denouncing him for his expensive AID
useless purchases, and il would strengthen
his position if he could make good
"trade" with China. The purchase money
would go to pay for the new Brazilian
navy. now building at the Armstrong;.
''If the Nictheroy is sold," said a gentle
man familiar with the negotiations, "the
Zalinski gun goes with it. That gun ought
TO have a chance to prove its merits.
But the war Will be over before the Chi
nese can use it. The vessel will be COM
manded and manned by Americans if the
deal goes through, and then you would
see some real fiqhting."
