CATHOLIC FEDERATION.

CINCINNATI. O., Dec. 13.-The
American Federation of Catholic So
cieties after q session of three days
adjourned to meet in Chicago July 10,
1902. After the adoption Of the new
constitution and the election of Off
Gers the last day was mostly devoted
to the consideration Of plans for field
work. The committees met after the
adjournment of the convention, and
the executive board continued in ses-
sion at night.
The convention closed amid scenes
of jollitication over the completion Of
Il general Crganiza ton of the Catholic
laity. which has been in progress the
past year. While distinguished prel-
ates not only indorsed but also have
co-operatcd in starting the federation.
there seems to be an unwrittcn law
that the organization is not to be con-
nected with the hierarchy or with poll
tics. All Of the officers and members
of the committees are lnymen. The
only exception is that Of the spiritual
adviser, and all Catholic orders make
this exception, even the amateur lit
crary societies.
1t is said that the changes in the
national officers was largely due to the
opposition to all Having political aspi-
rltions.
