BALTIMORE. Mp.. March 31.-Cardinal
Gibbons in his sermon to-day in the
Cathedral said: tfS
"How truo tia thn: history repeats
tho calumnios that wore uttered against
our Lord aud Saviour in his
day; tho same calumnics that
were circulated against tho prim.
tive church, are ventilated to-
day against tho church Of God, her
clergy and members. Let me give one
instance out OF a thousand that might
bring forward to illustrate tho subject.
Tho Catholic church is Jealous OF the
honor and moral rectitude OF her clergy.
It is her constant aim that they should
walk in innocence and blamelossness OF
life. And whenever any Of her clergy is
known to have contracted any degrad.
ing habits incompatible with his sacred
call, he is withdrawn from the active
pursuits OF the ininiatry until he has
given marks OF reformation.
III We were to retain degenerate
clergy in tho exercise OF the public mys-
tory, they would point tho finger OF
scorn at us and say: See how low is
tho moral standard Of the Catholic cler-
gy. II We dismiss one OF them from
tho service Of the altar, they will forth
with pick him up from the gutter aud
receive the fallen angel with open
arms. They will embrace him as long
lost brother and take him to its bosom
and lead him about the country like
some strange animal aud exhibit him
to public gaze, He is sure Of course to
misrepresent and malign the church, If
1t is sin to tell a iocose lie, II it is
crimo to calumine ones neighbor, how
shall We characterize the offense Of
those who malign the largest body of
Christians in the world? And the cal
umny becomes still more reprehensible
when uttered from Christian pulpit,
which ought to be the chair Of truth.
you may cover with mud Washing
toms and Taney's monuments in this
city. but Heavens wind and rain will
make them clean again. So God, IN His
own good time. will dispel the clouds OF
calumny and vindicate truth"

PITTSBURGH, March 23.-The citizens
and business men OF tho South Side are
considerably agitated ovor tho proposed
settlement OF the prolonged strike
among tho flint glassworkcss. They are
very hopeful, and many are Of the opin-
ion that the end is not far Of.

ment. Tho lockout glassworkcrs have
been m important factor In tho busi-
ness Affairs OF that part Of tho city.
When they were at work business was
much better than when they aro idle.
Some time ago number OF business
men and glassworkers seriously dis
cusscd tho advisability OF starting fac.
tory on tho cooperative plan. Tho
scheme bids fair to be success, but Us
soon as thero was talk OF n probability
of tho atrlke bolng declared of it was
abandoned.
The recent change in tho manage.
ment OF tho United Statea glasa factory
has bred conciliatory spirit among
tho strikers. Notice has been givon
that the difficulty could be speedily set
tied II zach side would make some con-
cessions. All that would be necessary
would be to bring together representa-
tivcs OF employers and employees. It
has also been announced that tho stock
holders OF the United States glass com
pany would hold a special meeting next
Thursday. What tho object OF the
meeting is tho officials reinso to state.
Within tho last, few days tho concern
has sont circular to tho iobborS aud
tho prospective glass purchnaors, stat
Ing that thoir goods will DO equal to
any in tho market in point OF work
manship, and that tho standard will bo
be.tor than evor. It is snfo 10 predict
that tho developments Of tho meeting
will be very important.
