BISHOP AND PRIEST DEFIED.

A Newark Catholic Society VIII Have n Picnic
Despite Churchly Opposition.
st. Michael's Benevolent Association of New
ark will hold q picnic to-day at the shooting
park, in vailsburg, notwithstanding the prohi.
bition of Bishop WiRGer and the pronounced OBJ
position OF the Rev. Father McCartie, pastor of
st. Michael's Church. Father McCartie saws
that the picnic has been prohibited by Bishop
Wlgger because It is in contravention OF n rogu-
lation Of church discipline which requires that
Catholic organizations shall obtain the concur
romeo Of the pastor and the sanction OF the Bishop
before holding fairs or p~icnics, and that this rule
has been disregardod by the benevolent society
In this instance.
Father McCartie opposed the picnic from the
start, and a week ago he spoke against 1t at
each Of the masses which he celebrated. He
did so oven more vigorously yesterday. and in
the two earlier masses Father Stein urged tho
women especially to remain away from the pic
mic and TO use their influence with the men, say
Ing that i was the wish of Bishop wieEer.

aged picnics, and mono has been held for several
years. This year the society determined to havo
a picnic, and the committee hired a park and o
band and provided refreshments without con-
sulting the pastor. Then came his opposition.
md evidently no sought the support Of the
Bishop.
One of the officers Of the association said yes
terday: w cannot stop at this point. We
have expended several hundred dollars and a
postponement would be disastrous to the organ
~ization. When Father Leonard was alive wo
had no such trouble. and 1t seems TO me that it
is inspired by pique. cannot see where any
harm can come from It. and tho only excuse
date might at some time interfere with some ar
rangement by the pastor for a similar entertain
ment. In this case no such contingency arises.
and the opposition is unreasonable. There is no
question of vice OF, immortality raised, and the
did not sue for the sanction Of the pastor before
making our arrangements. We have gone SO
far now that we cannot recede without consid-
cradle loss"
