Cardinal Taschereau, WeII-KnOwn
Canadian Catholic Leader.

QUEBEC, Quebec, April II. - Cardinal
TaSchereau died peacefully at Sis o'clock
tonight, surrounded by many of his friends
and the priests of his district. The aged
prelate had been in poor health for many
months, and his death had been looked for
at almost any hour for the past three
weeks.
Cardinal Taschereau was born at ste.
Marie de la Beauce, Quebec, on the 18th of
February, 1920. He was a most precocious
child, and was SO far advanced in his
studies that at eight years of age his par
ents entered him pupil at the Quebec
Seminary, one of the most prominent Cath
olic educational institutions in the Domin-
ion. At the age of seventeen he was far
enough advanced to undertake journey to
Rome in company with the Rev Able
Holmes, of the Quebec Seminary, and one
year later received the tonsure at the hands
of Mgr. Platti. archbishop Of Trebizonde.
in the Basilica of st. John I.ateran. In the
same year, 1887, he returned to Quebec
where he resumed his theological studies.
and six years afterward. while still under
canonical age, he was ordained Priest. The
ceremony was performed on the 10th of
September, 1912, at the Church of Ste.
Marie de la Beauce, his native parish by
Mgr. Turgeon, afterward the successor of
Archbishop Signal. He rapidly advanced
in the church. and after being Archbishop
of Quebec for years was made cardinal
a few years ago.

LONDON, April 12-According to a spe-
cial dispatch from Berlin the impression
created at the German capital by President
McKinley's message to Congress was not
very favorable. Its tone, the dispatch con-
tinues. is considered dilatory and as not
promising peace. The politicians at Berlin
it appears, express the opinion that If the
President really had peaceable intentions he
would have acknowledged Spain's conces-
sion of an armistice.
The National Zeitung sums up what il
alleges the total results of the Hispano-
American negotiations of the last few days
saying: Spain has given proof of her love
for peace by prOclaiming an armistice
President Mckinley has also placed or
record his love tor peace, by avoiding sub
hitting direct ultimatum or impossible
demands. The gain thereby is temporary -

cisive vote. member of the Upton del
egation, in a speech seconding the nomina-
ton of Burkhart, declared there were hosts
