DIR. DE COSTA'S EXPLANATION.
HE is PREPARING LONG STATEMENT RE
GARDING HIS CONVERSION TO
ROMAN CATHOLICISM

The Rev Dr. B. r. De Costa no more COM
municatve last night when he seen by Trib-
une reporter to the reasons which induced him to
change his faith than he was Sunday after he
had been received into the Roman Catholic Church
in the Convent OF the Sacred Heart, In West
Seyenteenth-st Ordinarily DR.. De Costa Is not
reicent regarding himself and affairs that concern
him. His present attitude OF silence, however he
made clear last night the reporter who called on
him. He is preparing long statement comprising
several thousand words setting forth in cOmprehen-
sive form the grounds which impelled him to for
sake the beliefs OF the Episcopal Church for those
OF Roman Catholicism. lie Is DESTROYS that this
statement shall be published in full by the newspa-
pers, and as he Is OF the opinion that anything he
might say in advance OF its issue might detract
from its effect ne refuses for the time being to dis
his conversion to the Romanst Church. DR..
De Costa said last night that he would probably
give out the statement to-day.
From n few words however, which DR.. DE Costa
permitted to escape him last night IL would seem
that his statement will be mainly an advocacy or
Church, upon which he will base justification for
his resignation from the Episcopal ministry.
1t reported yesterday that DR.. De Costa In
tended to Identify himself with the spiritual work
Of the Church OF the TRANSPORTATION, which Is Sit

as Chinatown. Father Thomas Mclaughlin. who
Costa renounced the Episcopal faith, is the rector
