Secures Option on Controlling Interest
in Biz Producers

oecufes Uption on IOntroIIing Interest
in Biz Producers
Milwaukee, Wis, September 12.-
Andrew Carnegie is reported here to
have secured an option on a control
ling interest in the Metropolitan Iron
and Land Company of this city, which
owns the Norrie, East Norrie and
Pabst mines at Ironwood, Mich.
This company is one Of the greatest
producers of bessemer iron ore in the
country, and the output of its mines
is about 100000 tons Of iron ore a
year. The close relations of Carnegie
and Rockefeller add strength to the
belief that the mines will change
ownership with view to increasing
the power OF Rockefeller to control the
output Of bessemer ore and fix prices
thereon

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-Recent un-
| official reports from Rome to the ell
| feet that the control Of higher educa-
| ton in the United States had been
transferred from Cardinal LudochoW-
| ski to Cardinal Satolli are not con-
| frmed in those quarters which would
be most likely to know of such an i'm
| portant move. The report has occa-
stoned much comment In high eccle-
siastical circles, as it is felt to relate
directly to the control Of the Cathohc
University of America, located here,
| and to some extent to be a phase of the
recent Schroeder controversy which asl-
tated the university and the American
| bishops. It appears that there are two
auxiliary bodies at the Vatican, one
the congregation of the propaganda,
the other the congregation OF studles'
They constitute the two powerful ad-
ministrative forces of the papal estao-
lishment. Cardinal Ludoehowski is pre-
feet or chairman of the congregation
of the propaganda, Cardinal SatolH
prefect or chairman Of the congrega-
ton of studies. AS a general rule, the
congregation of studieg have charge Oh
universities and higher institutions Oh
learning, as well as the direction OF
the general course Of educational at-
fairs within the church. An exception
occurred, however, when the Catholic
University of America was established.
1t being new departure in this coun-
try and not regarded as similar to those
long established institutions under the
control Of the congregation of studies.

the congregation of the propaganda.
where it has remained UP to the pres
ent time. This more particularly gave
Cardinal Ludochowskf large meas
ure of authority over the university at
Washington, for as prefect OF the con-
gregation having it in charge he shaped
the policy toward it and, besides this,
his personal influence at the Vatican is
considerable, as he is commonly re-
ferred to as the right arm of the pope.
The care given to the university un-
der the congregation of the propaganda
and it's influential prefect is said to
have been eminently satisfactory to the
university authorities and the -Ameri-
can bishops.
1t is stated, however, that a move

months ago to bring about change so

Runlor That the Control of the
SGEAl UGWGR Catholic University Has Been
controvnrsv Invo1yed Transferred Satol Is Denied

Cardinal Satolli as prefect, should
assume the care of the university. 1t
was felt that this move might meet
with much favor if urged in Rome, ow-
ing to the natural authority which the
congregation of studies has over all
universities and also because of the
personal familiarity which Cardinal
Satolli had of American affairs, gained
during his service here as papal dele
gate. The movement caused some ap-
prehension however, as it was said to
involve personal features, including the
status Of Mgr. Schroeder and that eIe-
ment with which he has been identified.
All the information reaching here is
that the movement for a change has
not been carried out and that it is not
likely to be carried out. For this
reason the unofficial report from Rome
that the transfer has been actually
made is discredited by those most in
timately familiar with the subject.
Should it be carried out 1t is said that
it will have an important influence on
the future of the university as well as
on the disposition of the Schroeder case.
Cardinal Ludochowski is a Pole by
birth, but is generally regarded as not
strongly pro-German in his tendencies.
Cardinal Satolli is thought to be favor
able to Mgr. Schroeder, although there
was some marked difference of opinion
between them when the cardinal was
papal delegate here. 1t is understood
that the Schroeder case is now before
the Vatican authorities. Archbishop
Keane was due at Rome on Nov. g. and
has had ample time to report on this
and the other questions intrusted to
him. There may be some delay, how
ever, in awaiting the arrival of the
papers in the case. These were not
taken by Archbishop Keane but were
forwarded to Rome a few days ago.

the report that DR.. MIGUEL Herrera Y

he expressed the hope that the de-

DR.. Herrera Obes called upon him

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The issue

from the postmaster at Gastonia, N.
