DEFENDS CARDINAL GIBBONS
One OF His Friends Denies That His Emi
uence Is Persona Non Grata at Rome.

Baltimore, Nov. 13.-Cardinal Gibbons
has thus far denied himself 10 reporters
who have sought to interview him upon
the statements that have been publish
ed regarding the relations of himself.
to the Vatican.
A gentleman conversant with all sides
Of the controversy said today:
There is not clergyman, be he priest
or bishop, regular or SECULAR who will not
regard the statement that it is proposed
to discipline Cardinal Gibbons. as with
out basis or fact. In the first place,
everybody knows that Cardinal Gibbons
has held aloof from entangieme1tS such
as are limited at in the dispatches and
that might possibly prove troublesome.
The cardinals attitude has always been
that of the peacemaker. Largely through
his efforts much friction has been allay-
ed On many occasions known only with
in ecclesiastical circles ard the pope is
credited with an excellent memory. The
allegations that it is proposed to force
upon the cardinal coadjutor Of the op-
posite school is equally absurd. If one
stops to consider the matter for a mo-
r1ent. he must see how impossible it is
and how irreconcilable that other state
n?ent in the dispatch that he will not be
removed from his see Why, the very
act OF appointing a coadjutor to the or
d:nary of any diocese at variance with
the policy of the latter would in Itself be
virtual removal, for no man of any SELF
respect could remain under such circunl-
stances. Coadjutators are not appoint
ed unless at the request of the bishop
himself and then the appoin;ee is of his
own choice or where he is incapacitated.
as in the case of the late Archbishop Ken
driclS of St Louis.
BY the way" continued the gentle
man, ''the appointment of Father
Thomas, VINO is rector of the cardinal
cathedral, to the see of Wilmington.
which has practically been accomplished,
hardly bears out the New York dispatch
that the cardinal is no longer persona
grata at the Vatican"
An announcement made here tonight.
which, taken in connection with the ru-
mors concerning Cardinal Gibbons, is
deemed very significant, and in the
minds of many it is thought to indicate
there IS no truth in them. 1t is said that
Archbishop Martinelli. the apostolic
delegate and successor TO Cardinal Sa-
TOLL as the papal representative in this
country, viii visit Cardinal Gibbons in
a few days. The occasion of the visit
is the celebration OF Patroness Day at
st. Mary's seminary of ST. Sulpice in this
city, which viii take place on November
25. Archbishop Martineni has an
nounced his intention TO celebrate high
pontificial mass upon that occasion and
will be the guest of the cardinal, the
mass being celebrated in the cathedral.
Those who are we'll posted in church
matters say that this would not happen
if the cardinal did not stand in high
favor at the Vatican.

Chicago. Nov. 13.-A rumor was circu-

Washington, Nov. 13.-The inquiry
which is proceeding at the New York
navy yard behind closed doors into the
circumstance under which the Texas
sank at her dock recently: it is reported
here, has brought to light further
startling structural weakness in the ship.
It was noted here with surprise that the
telegraphic reports of the sinking of the
Texas showed one engine room filled
through the water-tight doors closing it
off from the adjoining engine room. This
led TO investigation and it has been
found that the bulkheads separating the
ship into supposed water-tight compart-

AFTER HER $17,OOO,OOO
MANY MEN WANT TO MARRY NINE.
EGLANTINE NJ. GOUDIN.
Since She Fell Heir to an Enormous
Fortune Her Mail Is Burdened
with Proposals.

HILLSIDE, N. j., June 25.-Mne Eglan-
tine NJ. Goudin. who recently received
word from France that she had fallen heir
to s17,0O0,000, takes a basket to the village
postofice now when she goes for her mail.
She has received hundreds of letters since
the news of her good fortune became pub
lie. Most of them are proposals of mar
riage. Nine. Gcudin for three years has
lived alone in a half-inished cottage in
lonely spot on the edge of the woods
half mile from the railroad station. A big
mastin keeps away unwelcome callers. She
is not afraid of burglars, for she keeps but
little money in the house and makes all
payments in checks. Carpenters are at
work now completing the cottage and the
grounds around il are being cleared. Ma
dam is nervous little woman, with snap
ping black eyes ard jet black hair, in
which the gray is beginning to show. She
speaks rather imperfect English. Several
money brokers from New York, she said
to-day, had called to see her and tried TO
get the management of her affairs. but she
mad placed them in the hands of a lawyer in
Jersey City. She. intends to spend some
money in completing the cottage and i'm
proving the grounds around 1t. After that
she is going to build a charitable institu-
ton and provide literally for some Of her
poor neighbors.
Asked TO which of her many suitors she
was going to be married, she laughed and
assumed shy look Then she brought out
some OF her letters. One blonde young
man, twenty years old, handsome, with
blue eyes, was willing to be either hus-
band or son to her, or, in case she did
not want him for either, a confidential
friend. provided she would make him
present Of $4,000. Nine. Goudin requested
that the names be withheld for fear she
might get ilto trouble.
A prince wrote from Paris that he kissed
her feet and would give her q title IL she
would marry him. A clubman inclosed his
photograph. and asked her to undertake
the task or being steDmother to his
grown-uD son. A man OF Sixty-eight the

Gationalist OF old Puritan stock and own

first, but she has received so many that
she has. become hardened TO them. Long
lost sisters, brothers. cousins, aunts, neph-
ews and nieces have turned uD in all
parts OF the world and have written TO
her for money. Nine. Goudin says that all
her missing relatives have been accounted
for and that she has received handsome
presents from several who turned her
away only few months ago when she
needed assistance. 1T is the way of the
world" she remarked. bitterly. These
people were once ashamed of me, but nov.
when l have plenty. they can not do too
much for my comfort" From the tenor oil
Aaadame's conversation it Is evident that
her. fair-weather friends and relatives will
have no share in ner good fortune.
