the upshot will be that there will be
a change in the management of the af-
fairs. The feeling is over the financial
condition.
A committee of the parish waited on
Bishop Harkins, and the Bishop came to
This city for the purpose OF having a
conference wit Father Pagan, but did
hill. A prominent parishsoner says the
people have been paying In about $3.50 0
a year for several years past, expecting
that much of Ii was to go towards pay
ing the church debt. Instead. however,
the church debt is bigger than It ever
was before, and no one can find out what
has become of the money. In the same
River has paid up a $4,000 debt and built
and paid for a 500, 09 Church.
They do not impute any misapplication
OF funds to he Reverend Father, but say
that he has too many private irons in
the fire for himself TO give judiclous and
conservative attention to Parish finances.
He is said to ~ several tenement
