ROME November 11.-Cardinal Satolli
has just presented totShe pope his report on
the religious questions in the United States.
Although this document Is destined not
to be published. it Is nevertheless perfectly
well known what 1t contains, and am thus
In position to give you interesting in
formation with respect to It.
Cardinal Satolh makes q veritable requi-
sition against Bishop Keane and the Catho-
lie University OF the United States at
Washington. He accuses Bishop Keane of
having In several public speeches uttered
opinions which bor1ered on heresy, and
says that in accord with Archbishop Ire
land he endeavored to acclimatize a neo-
catholicism (new eathelicisEn) on American
soil
Cardinal SatolM declares that the uni
versity at Washington had become the
heaft OF these new ideas. where the most
bold and risky theories were put forward.
,,ss ,,sosrtunately. he says. the removal of
oisnoP heahe mas cut short the evil at Its
root. but the bishop left behind dangerous
dlsclpies IN the persons Of numerous pro-
fessors OF this university. and the cardinal
ADVISES the pope to deprive them, In their
turn. of their Offices
Ireland the "Apostle Of Heresy."
But the cardinal shows himself much
more severe In his arraignment of Arch
bishop Ireland. He declares that this
prelate is the creator Of neo-catholicism In
the United States and he formally accuses
him OF being the apostle of heresy" This
report has produced a very marked impress
sion at the Vatican. where every one fore
sees that the pope will adopt the greater
portion Of the cardinals suggestions
he Will. 1t seems certain. deprive the
keanism professors of their offices and
VIII call Archbishop Ireland to Rome to
there offer an explanation.
This blow which has just been struck at
Bishop keane and Archbishop ireland has,
moreover. more general effect 1t is a
complete and sudden change in the atti-
tude of the Holy See At first Leo XIII
showed marked preference for Arch
bishop Ireland. which did not fail to seem
10 many to be extraordinary. in view Of the
boldness OF the attitude and doctrine Of the
archbishop of ST. Paul
The latter ostensibly enjoyed the favor
or the Vatican, and Rome protected him
against the attacks and suspicious of which
be was the object When he came here a
few years ago he was accorded triumphal
reception. Today the reaction is complete.
Leo Nil openly and energeticaliy disavows
the idea Of Archbishop ireland and his
group. $50 "-' .+1
Repudinted by the Vatican.
The neo-Cathoiicism which these people
are attempting to plant In the United States
Is completely discounted. The Vatican has
repudiated it, while its rival and antagon-
istic group. led by Mgr. Corrigan. has re-
conquered the favor OF the Holy See. 1t is
needless 10 call attention to how significant
and interesting is this new evolution of Leo
the Thirteenth from the point of view of
the general deSiinies of contemporary Ca
tholicism. 1t Is the old Roman conserv-
atism which has finished by regaining the
upper hand. Moreover, 1t is not only in the
JT,jt of kpt N other countries
and other fields, THAI the policy of, Leo
manifests a tendency to sudden change. In
France there Is already a STOP II not an
actual backward movement
