cas-. the court OF last resort has given
final judgment in favor OF Mr.. Trum-
bull. citizen Of the United States, as
the owner Of the orinoco iron mines

mining ore in a region extending sixty
miles beyond Manoa, on the orlnoco
river. The company began operations,
but the legality OF the grant was at

at s9O,OO0,OOO. and besides It's iron min
ing interests owns considerable rubber
forests and grazing lands and several

urers and endeavor to reach an AMIGA
BILE understanding on the wage ques-

CATHOLIC FEDERATION.
Plans for the Afiiliation OF All Cath
olic Societies to Promote Jus
tice to Catholics.

NEW YORK. June lS--with a view
to present action. project that has
for its object the federation Of all the
societies In the United States. COM
posed of Roman Catholic laymen. is
being discussed in Catholic circles
throughout the country. Some influen-
tial clergymen and laymen are inter
ested.
BY the plan all Catholic societies are
to become affiliated. although each sep
arate organization is to retain its indi-
viduality. The idea is to have all the
members of the societies subject to 3
central direction so that all may work
together whenever necessary for any
special purpose.
1t is argued that Roman Catholics in
this country are unfairly treated in
some respects. The projectors Of this
union hold that Catholic voters would
be able to right whatever wrongs are
now declared to exist.
Bishop McFaul, Of Trenton, n. j.. is
warm supporter Of the project. He
has prepared an address, which is be-
ing circulated extensively in support of
the federation idea. in which he says:
We are American citizens. Bigotry
should not be allowed to deprive us Of
the exercise and enjoyment Of any Of
our rights.
we are 100000 in America, yet
how small is our influence. What rep
resentation have we in state and ma
tional affairs when we measure it with
the proportion we bear to the whole
population Of the country? If a Cath
olic presumes to stand for any political
office. that same individual who has
enjoyed the benefit Of our suffrages
