Their monastery az Washington is a

lates Of tine city assisted them.
The mass was the usual ceremony Of
the Catholic Church, except tnat during

DECREE NO BAR TO CUPID.
Catholic Priests Say POpe's Edict
VIII lie Modified.

iNtW DIk NvilNl
Most OF the Catholic priests i'm this
city believe that the holy year decree
regulating marriages between Catholics
and Profestants. VIII have to be greatly
modified. This decree. published in the
World yesterday, stated that during 1900
direct dispensation from the Pope would
BE- necessary, I'm marriages between
Protestants and Catholics. Those wishing
to marry must apply to a priest in their
parish, who must apply 10 q bishop. who
must write TO the Pope I'm Rome, and
await his answer
The ninety-eight Catholic parishes I'm
New York city now average twenty
mixed marriages a year, or a total OF
1850 In 1925 there were recorded less
than fifty mixed marriages In the Catho-
lie Church In America.
SUCH MARRIAGES GROW FAST
In New York city alone" said Father
Ducey yesterday. "the Catholic clergy
work necessarily In an fields of labor,
and ting number Of Pr0testants and CATH
olcs who apply 10 them for marriage
is gradually growing. 1 believe that the
reports 10 the Vatican will show that
the number OF applications for dspensa-
ton for mixed marriages I'm 1900 will De
more than his Holiness can attend 10.
Therefore we may expect that certain OF
our bishops Will be vested with power tO
grant such dispensations, especially for

cree. Those who seek such spiritual
