SMALLPOX NOT EPIDEMIC.
Health Officer Woodward Hopeful thai
the Last Case Has Appeared
William Owens Dead.

the Last Case Has Appeared
William Owens Dead.
The smallpox situation is now more eneour-
aging, as no new cases were developed yes
terday, Notwithstanding rumors to the con-
trary.
DR.. Nevitt telephoned at O'Clock last night
that all the patients under his care were
doing nicely, and sleeping soundly at that
hour.
William Owens, the youthful Interior De-
partment clerk, succumbed at o'clock yes
terday morning and was soon afterward
buried in Congressional Cemetery.
1t was found upon investigation that Van
Buren, Norwood, also an employe of the In
terror Department, who was reported stricken
with the dreaded disease at Hyattsville, is
not suffering from smallpox. His ailment is
OF much milder nature.
Health Officer Woodward is now fully sat
isled that the disease Is not epidemic, as all
cases thus far had been infected from the
Coston family. He hopes that the last case
has appeared. There was some alarm occa-
stoned early yesterday morning on Third
street northeast, between d and E streets. by
the report made OF suspected case in tnat
square. Investigation showed, however, that
the patient had chicken-pox instead.
The health Office alone has distributed
$1,000 vaccine points since the appearance of
the first case of smallpox.

Mgr. Satolh was seen at his residence
concerning the New York dispatch to the eff
feet that Archbishop Corrigan had recently
called on him and that there was unity of ac-
tion within the church in loyalty to the dele
gate.
He said the archbishop had called on him
about two weeks ago, soon after the meeting
OF the archbishops, and conference. lasting
several hours, had been held. The ablegate
would not discuss the nature Of the confer
ence or the reported unity in recognizing the
delegates authority.

ALL NOW LOYAL TO SATOLLI.
Catholic Bishops-Archbishop
Corrigan's Visit

New YORK, Oct. 30.-The mystery which
surrounded the recent annual meeting OF
Catholic archbishops at Philadelphia and the
subsequent gathering here is still unbroken,
but from events subsequent to the meeting the
conclusioni is drawn that an important step
was taken toward the uniflcation of the prin-
cipal Catholic ecclesiastics in the United States
in the termination of the antagonisms which
have arisen over Mgr. Satolli's presence in
this country, and in more complete support
and loyalty to the papal delegate in the future
Whether the archbishops took formal action
on the subject is not known.
Immediately following the meeting Arch
bishop Corrgan. of New York, paid visit to
Mgr. Satolli at the latter's residence in Wash
ington. The two ecclesiastics were together
three hours and the result is believed to have
been of gratifying character to the ablegate
and archbishop. Archbishop Corrigan's call
on Mgr. Satolli was not unusual, as the former
had called before, but the proximity of the
call TO the adjournment of the archbishops is
considered significant.
Only one trifling cause of irritation remains
and that results from an article written by
Bishop Spalding in the North American Re-
view, in which he attributed the A. p A.
movement to the presence Of Mgr. Satolli in
this country. 1t is believed that the bishop
has made amends and explanations for the
misapprehension created by his article, and
that this matter has been smoothed over in
part at least
The unity of action toward Mgr Satolli is
regarded as coming opportuney before the
Popes approaching encyclical enlarging the
delegates authority. 1t is said also that the
recognition of Mgr. Satolli's authority by the
American hierarchy was quite as important
md
ity itself.
