French Foreign Office supported him in
offering that pledge.
From the foregoing it will be seen
that if the Spanish cabinet seriously in
tends to violate the solemn engage
ments made in it's behalf and under its
authority and urgent solicitation, 1t is
matter between it and France rather
than one in which the United States
has any great interest. Indeed, it
would be difficult to imagine much
worse affront to the French nation
than to disown an international engage
ment secured by its representative as
an act of charity to a whipped and
ruined power, and to say that it was
ratified only under coercion. Such an
insult to France would be clearly a
casus belli if offered by power re-
spectacle enough TO make war upon
Probably Sagasta may rely upon his
country's extreme rottenness and dis
repute for immunity from punishment
In general way We are rather curious
to see what view France may take OF
the matter.
1t is not one to give the American
people much unessiness. If the Ed
munds- Ireland protocol has become OBJ
noxious to the Spaniards, it is only fail
to say that it was never anything else
to the great majority of people in this
country. 1t offers. and was intended
to offer, territorial concessions which
no one in the United States, outside Ol
the few people who would be the direc'
beneficiaries of the secret deal, cal
| contemplate without deep indignation
and resentment, and without never
ceasing astonishment that Presiden
Mckinley could have allowed himsel
| to be made use of in such connection
Let us hope that the Spanish premie
is fool as well as knave enough TO kici
over the protocol. There never woul'
be another instrument, like ii conceive'
and executed to defeat American inter
ests and honor in the Philippines, t,

There is still degree of uncertainty
in the minds of some Americans as to
whether we should allow Spain to re-
move from Havana the sacred dust of
the great discoverer, Christopher Co.
lumbus. The more the subject is dis
cussed, the more reason there seems
TO be to consent to another shift
ing of his remains. One of the
most erudite and authoritative of
Jesuit historical students is the Rev.
Henry Schandelle, the dean of the
Graduate School of Georgetown, in
this District. His opinion on any
disputed point of Catholic history is
worth at least as much as that of any
other student in either hemisphere
While he is not dogmatic about it, he
is clearly of the belief that the person
whose crumbled bones have received SO
much attention at Havana and have
been glorified and blest by successive

THE APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION.
Historical Doubt Regarding Suppos-
ed Writings of Eusebius.
To the Editor OF ghe Times

To the Editor OF The Times:
The direct apostolic descent of the Ro-
man church is questioned by "A Church.
woman in The Evening Times, of Oeto-
Der 6. Is not the direct descent altogeth-
er questionable?
The earliest church historian is Fuse
bius. whose work seems to have been
completed prior to the council of Nice
A. ID. 325; for though he is said to have
lived some fifteen years longer. during
which he wrote the8 Life, of Constantine,
he takes no notice in his Ecclesiastical
History of that famous council in
which he made the opening address. He
it is who gives us the names of the apos-
tolic successors-the bishops of Jerusa-
lem, of Antioch and of Rome.
But / affirm that Eusehius' "Ecclesias-
teal History was not written in the
fourth century, but as late as the fif-
teenth Its first publication was in Latin
some years after the discovery of the art
of printing 1t purported to be a trans
lation made in the fourth century by
Rufinus The alleged Greek original did
not appear until 1874 and it is evidently
a paraphrase and abridsement of the
Latin version, written in clumsy and
wretched style, offensive to all good taste.
The English translator of the complete
Greek text Dy dPoi-
ogized for the ambiguous and otherwise
defective style of Eusebius, being very
different from that which prevailed three
centuries before.
The learned Jesuit, Hardouin GA. D..
16,6-1729), says that the earliest of the
succession of Bencdictine forgeries were
| in Latin, because it was some time aft
| er the revival of learning before scholars
| mastered the Greek. Hardouin announc-
| ed more than 200 years ago that all the
| writings of the so-called Christian Faith
| ers were fabricated by modern monks.
| For this he was reprimanded by his su-
| periors and debarred from promotion in
| the church. The Parlement de Paris sup
| pressed his book, and in 170S he was COM
| PEELED. like Galileo. to make public re-
| fraction. But he nevertheless reproduced
his opinions in another book, completed
] lust before his death in 1929. This book
! was published in London, in 1766, but be-

military commanders and priests. is not
and never was Columbus. Who the
person is nobody has ventured to de-
eide. According to the standard Cath
olic historians, there was popular be-
lief that Columbus was buried on the
left or gospel side of the altar of the
cathedral at San Domingo. There is
no way to verify this. as the records of
the cathedral were destroyed by
brakes men in 1875. AS it was import
ant that the Spanish should have re-
mains that would pass for those of CO.
lumbus, they made excavations in the
chancel and found the bones of some
body. There were no distinguishing
marks, nothing whatever to identify
them. AS there had been many inter-
ments in that part of the chancel, the
chances of getting the real Columbus
relics were comparatively few; and the
fact that these particular remains had
no inscription on their casket makes it
highly improbable that they were what
was sought.
Father Schandelle and the standard
church historians assert their confidence
in the claim made by San Domingo that
the real remains of the discoyerer are
still In the cathedral Therefore, IL
Spain chooses to carry the dust of
forgotten citizen of San Domingo across
| the water, 1t would be ridiculous for
| Americans TO protest. As long as no
relatives of the dusty. musty gentle
man appeal to us to save their ances-
fpr iph
to interfere. Besides. if there are any
relatives, they may enjoy the distinc
| ton former oppressor now bestows
on one of their race and family. The
presumption is strongly in favor of the
| African descent of the party" as the
New England undertaken calls the de-
| ceased, and it cannot be denied that
there is a just cause for pride in the
artistic incasement of his dust and in
the ceremonies that attend his frequent
transportation. This must appeal more
strongly to the colored brothers in San
Domingo than elsewhere. for the reason
that Spain has been unsparing of
cruelty in her dealings with them 1t
| is not at all improbable that the Afro
| West India person whose relics are the
| object of so much care and veneration
was himself victim of Spanish cruelty.
| Accident sometimes adjusts matters to
effect what we call poetic justice.
We have learned from the literature
of ghosts that-a spirit is disturbed and
restless until its bones find rest The
motive of fully half the ghosts in re-
visiting the glimpses of the moon is to
effect the repose of their remains. In
this view the spirit of Columbus must
rejoice in the mistake that leads Spain
to keep those of another person forever
on the move while his own are at peace.
There is one consideration that would
make a ghost satisfied to have its dust
blow hither and yon. according to the
caprice of Spain, and that is the ex-
traordinary veneration with which
every transfer is characterized. So we
may assume that both Columbus and
his colored substitute are pleased with
things as they are. Then why should
we interfere?
The times., 1898-10-16

We have heard great deal in praise of
New Jersey justice its swiftness, it's
impartiality and such things. The latest
information regarding it does not tend
to increase the honor in which the article
hitherto has been held in the market
The betrayer of a seventeen-year-old
girl, who had abducted and concealed
her, admitted his guilt but refused to
marry his victim. In a natural alterca-
ton ensuing, he was killed by the agon-
lied father, who has been condemned to
a felons cell at hard labor for five years.
Out West where people may be rough but
have manly instincts, that father would
have been acquitted. or. if convicted. the
judge and fury would have found it in
convenient to pervade the community for
any considerable length of time. We pre-
fer that kind of thing to this sort of

teen years ago l found a copy in the
Congressional Library. Let me give a
translation of single paragraph:
There was no public heresy, nor any public per-
secution, in the church from its foundation among
the Gentiles, and the abolition Of the synagogue.
up to the time of Wiclif (l32i-1SSl). who III st
used the forged books under the names OF Angus
tine and other, as weapons against the church.
So Augustine begat Wicliff, Wiclif begat Luther,
Luthe, begat Calvin, and Calvin begat Jansen
And these are about all the heresies Christianity
has seen.
a complete translation of Hardouin S
book has been made by Prof Edwin
johnson, of London, and awaits pubiica-
tion. To those who cannot read Hardou-
in l commend Prof. Johnson's Rise of
Christendom" and Pauline Epistles."
Before the learned professor had even
heard of Hardouin his researches had led
him to the same conclusion in regard to
the modern fabrication of the writings
of the so-called Fathers of the Church

1t is probably fortunate for the depos-
itors of Boss Platt's closed Owego bank
that the defalcation of its dead officer on
ly amounts to fifty thousand dollars. A
small sum like that would hardly be
felt by gentleman engaged in the pro-
fitable political concern of which the SEN
ator is head For some unaccountable
reason banks seem to be unfortunate as
sociations for senators this year. They
have made trouble for three of the most
astute of the body. There is Kenney, who
is on trial, Quay, who has not yet got
beyond the stage of explanation, and
Platt, who is innocent but mortified.
There are others who have been through
similar experiences, but are now out of
reach of the police.

De Good Lnwd Know My Name.

! les dom know ef de cohn'll grow.
But | plants hit. jes' de SINE;
jes' dom know ef de wind'l blow
But watch an pray, an reap an SOW
An de sun. he rise, an de ribber flow.
An de good Lawd know my namei
les can't tell ei de cotton sell.
But I tolls on jes' de same;
De birds. dey build when de spring sap swell,
AM dey know enough fer a rainy spell.
An dat's lots mo- dan dsy gwine ter tell
But de good Lawd know my namei
So watch an pray es goes my way,
An | tells on ies de same;
De rose is sweet but de rose can't stay.
But I'm mighty glad when it bloom my way;
De night fall dark, but the Lawd sen day.
But DE- gosd LIwd know my name!
