SAToLLI CAUSED HIS REMovAL.-A
letter from Washington to the Balti.
more Sun says:
1t can be stated on the positive decla-
ration of those who know, that Cardi-
nal Satolli caused the removal of Bish-
op Keane from the rectorship of the
Catholic University. This statement is
not only from the friends, but from the
opponents of Bishop Keane. 1t comes
in a way to make it authentic.
The idea that Cardina! Satolli was
recalled and replaced by Mgr. Merti-
nelli on account of any displeasure OF
the Pope is positively denied. Mgr.
Martinelli was not informed, according
to his own statement, of the projected
removal of Bishop Keane, and he had
no knowledge of it until he reached
Washington.
A man well.informed in these mat
tiers said to the writer yesterday
"There can be no doubt that Cardinal
Satolli is responsible for the whole
thing. Cardinal Satolli has different
views frem those of Bishop Keane, and
he had the ears of the people. The
blow is terrible ens to the Catholic
University and to the progressive party
of the church. The party was reprs'
sented by the university, and Bishop
Keane not only represented the uni
versity, but was, It might be said, the
university ITSELF"

LONDON, Oct. S.-Further reports OF
the gales show that their severity was
greatly increased during last night and
hat an immense amount of damage
has been done to property along the

The BAY LINE SoLD.-In addition to
securing controlling interest in the
Seaboard and Roanoke Railroad, the
New York syndicate, headed by Thos.
F. Ryan and Col. George B. Harvey,
agents of the Southern Railway Com.
pany, has also secursd control of the
Baltimore Steam Packet Company. 1t
is stated to be the intention of the pur-
chssers as soon as they come into con-
troll of the properties to combine the
stock Indebtedness of these companies
and form one corporation, having its
northern terminus at Baltimore. The
syndicate, it is said, will build up a
system in the South composed of the
Seaboard Air Line, Port Royal and Au.
gusta and other lines in that section al
ready controlled by Mr.. Ryan and those
associated with him. The primary
cause Of the purchase was to get rid Of
the policy of rate-cutting and to restore
harmony among the Southern lines in
place of the present hostilities.
A Richmond special says; The details
of the transfer Of the Seaboard and
Roanoke railroad haye been completed
and the property is now virtually in
new hands end will nov be operated
for the general railroad development
and welfare of the South. 1t is known
that three parties holding the control
ling shares under a pooling contract
were anxious to get the highest figures
possible. They were offered par, but
they made it known that $50 was the
least they would take. Mr.. Ryan and
the pool committee held short confer.
ence, the result of which was the &C
ceptance Of about S1l0 per share By the
committee. A contract for the neces-
sary transfer was drawn by Henry
Crawford for the Ryan syndicate and
Judge Watts for the pool. There were
conditions of the transfer, which in
clude the reelection Of President Holt
man or the retention of the present
management for another year. AZ the
matter stands to-day the seaboard Air
Line is completely controlled by Thos.
F. Ryan and its future policy will be
one of conservatism and peace.
