BISHOP MQUA11 OF ROCHESTER.

The venerable Bishop McQuaid of
Rochester observer his thirty-second
anniversary of his conservation last
week with the usual solemn ceremonies
in his cathedral, and surrounded by
most of his priests.
Since 1868, when Bishop McQuaid
come to Rochester to assume charge of
the newly created diocese of Rochester,
which had been cut off from the diocese
of Buffalo, then presided over by the
venerable Bishop Timon, there have
been many changes in the Catholic
hierarchy of the United States and in
the province of New York, which COM
prises the states of New York and New
Jersey. In 1868 the province comprised
the archdiocese of New York and the
diocese of Albany, Newark, N. j., Buff
falo and Brooklyn. Since then there
have been created the dioceses of Roch-
ester, Syracuse, Ogdensburg and Tren-
ton N. J., and the Catholic population
of the province has increased more
than four-fold.
Bishop McQuaid has seen his former
altar boy at Seton Hall College, Mi
chael Augustine Corrigan, become the
Archbishop of New York; he has at
tended the funerals of Bishops Timon
and Ryan of Buffalo; Bishop Wad-
hams, of Ogdensburg; Bishop McNier-
ney of Albany Bishop Farrell of Tren-
ton; Bishop Loughlin. of Brooklyn. and
he has participated in the deliberations

ARCHBISHOP IRELAND WILL
VISIT KAISER AND GAR.

After his great speech in Paris at the
unveiling of the Lafayette statue on
the Fourth of July. Archbishop Ireland
at once became the lion of the hour in
France. In another column Father
Malone writes entertainingly of the en-
thusiastic manner i'm which his adj
dress, voicing the love of America for
France. was received. and this after
his Grace had been uniustly criticised
by certain fanatical writer's of the
French press.
Now the report comes from abroad
that the American prelate is to visit
the Emperor of Germany and the car
of Russia; both at their special and
urgent request. 1t is stated that his
Grace will be escorted from Paris to
Berlin by an official representative Of
the German Emperor; and after an
audience with the Kaiser there. viii be
escorted to st. Petersburg, where he
will be greeted by the monarch of all
the Russias. Thence, the Archbishop
will set out for Rome
Whether there is any diplomatic pur-
pose in the audiences with Emperor
and Car is matter of conjecture.

FATHER MALONE DEFENDS
ARCHBISHOP IRELAND.

| CEdltorlal Correspondence
Paris, France, July Sth, 190O-Truly
there are none so blind as those who
will not see. During the coming week
! the president of France will formally
receive Archbishop Ireland. This signal
mark of respect will hardly be lost on
those who have been rejoicing in the
hope that Archbishop Ireland's in1u-
ence had practically passed away.
As l pointed out before his arrival
the Americans in Europe were quick
to appreciatoe the exact position of the
st. Paul prelate and the reception
which they accorded him has been a
most emphatic protest against the 'atti-
tude of certain ecclesiastics in Paris
and Rome who live in deadly peril lest,
some day, the vigorous Archbishop of
the northwest may become a Cardinal
L said, in former letters to The In
termountain Catholic, that in attacking
Archbishop Ireland his culmniators on
this sode of the Atlantic should be
considered simply as villifiers of the
American people.

lCuliHCu LIS r or from the moment
that General Horace Porter, the United
States ambassador to France, read the
letter from President Mckinley eulo-
CYSTIC OF Archbishop Ireland and con-
shutting him his personal representa-
tive, it has been clear that honors con-
ferred on Archbishop Ireland would
receive grateful acknowledgement from
the president and people of the United
States.
In receiving the ST. Paul prelate, the
president of France, not only extends
a courteslv to the United States but
fttinely rebukes the clique of French |
ecclesiastics, whose principal occupa-

1t is to be hoped that an end has |

win the plaudits So generously bestowed
upon the American Archbishop. /
should state that Archbishop Ireland S
address was in French. which greatly
heightened the good impression. 1t was
given with the same fire end vigor
which characterize all his utterances,
and hence all who have ever heard him
will readily know how he must have
stirred his auditors.
With one exception, 1 presume. that
the Archbishop of st. Paul is the only
member of the American hierarchy
who could have delivered the discourse
of the occasion in so satisfactory
manner. The exception, of course. is
the learned Bishop of Peoria. who
would have electrified French audi
ence with the same ease that he arouses
his English or German auditors to
spontaneous bursts of enthusiasm.
Considered from every point of view,
Archbishop Ireland's address was
masterpiece, and in France effective in
an extraordinary degree.

Dr. De Costa's words are we'll worth
following. He is man who thinks.
and therefore whose words carry
weight. The article in the July num-
Der treats of the Interpreter.
A number of his statements are in
d1cative of the fact that in his coming
into the Church he has seized on to the
genuine Catholic principle of submis-
sion to authority in matters of faith.

The Durrant trial in San Francisco

medical student was accused OF muir
dering two girls in a choir loft, stirred
the country from end to end and filled
the columns of the yellow press. Yet
the death-bed. confession of Rev. Glib
son, pastor of the church. that he, not
Durrant, killed the girls, has been
given but little publicity. Gibbons
confession reveals a frightful state of
moral depravity. What makes the mat
ter worse is that Gibson not only did
nothing to save Durrant from an un-
deserved fate, but practically every
thing in his power to aid in the con-
viction of the unfortunate young stu

The Chronicle must be toying with
a fresh brew since the transfer of its
seat of publication from st. Paul to
Milwaukee, or it would not allow the
above to be printed in it's columns. es-
pecially in view of the fact that the
preacher is very much alive and has
repudiated the story so often that it
is now ancient history.

twin sister to the Chronicle, also print

Naturally the Rev. Mr.. Gibson, who
is still pastor of the Emanuel Baptist

denying the story of his death and
confession.

fit of our Eastern contemporaries that

POPE LEO ON THE CATHOLIC
PRESS.

A Catholic newspaper in a parish is
a perpetual mission. Let all who truly
and from their souls desire that re-
ligion and society defended by human
intellect and literature should flourish,
strive by their liberality to guard and
protect the Catholic press, and let
every. one in proportion to his income
support them with his money and in
fuence. for to those who devote them
selves to the Catholic press we ought
by all means to bring helps of this
kind, without which their industry will
either have no results or uncertain and
miserable ones. POPE LEO XIII.
