CARDINAL NEWMAN.
His Celebrated Reply 10 the Rev.
Charles Kingsley.

English Protestant clergyman, Rev.
Charles Kingsley, writing in a London
magazine, said that "truth for it's own
sake had never been virtue with the
Roman clergy" and that Gather New
man informs us that it need not and
on the whole ought not to be-"
Those words We're the occasion of
memorable correspondence or contro-
versy in which Mr.. Kingsley, needless
to say, came off 'second best" being
unable to supply, in answer to the de-
mand of the illustrious DR.. Newman,
the shadow of ground OF justification
for his reckless and calumnious state
ments, which also led to the writing
and publication of one of the greatest
of the great converts literary works,
the famous Apologize Pro Vita Sua.
That any man having read this cele-
brated book should entertain the
Kingsley idea is amazing. Perhaps
Mr.. Goodwin Smith has never read it,
and perhaps that is why he repeated
the Kingsley calumny in recent ar
ticle in the New York Sun, in which
he said that 'what he (Newman) lack
ed was love of truth" Yet, of course,
it can hardly be seriously believed
that Mr.. Smith has not read the Appel
ogia, and then when he penned the
words quoted he had lost ali memory
Of the famous passage in which DR..
Newman vindicated st. Alphonso Ii
guori, who had been also specially
assaulted by Kingsley for "laclS of love
of truth" Liguori, as DR.. Newman
explained, lays down that in certain
special cases, 'if there is a just cause
what is known as equivocation is allow,
able, but that English Protestant au.
thorities go further in the same direc.
ton he (Dr. Newman) also pointed out
as follows:
"Great English authors, Jeremy Tay.
lor, Milton, Paley, Johnson, men of
very distinct schools of thought, dis.
tinctly say that under certain circum.
stances it is allowable to lie. Taylor
says: 'To tell lie for charity, to save
a mans life, the life Of a friend, of a
husband, Of prince, of useful per.
son, hath not only been done at all
times, but commended by great and
wise and good men. Who would not
save his fathers life at the charge of
a harmless lie from prosecutors or ty.
rants? Again, Milton says: What
man in his senses would deny that
there are those whom we have the
best grounds for considering that we
ought to deceive-as boys, madmen,
the sick, the intoxicated, enemies, men
in error, thieves? Paley says: There
are falsehoods which are not lies. that
is, which are not criminal Johnson:
THE general rule is that truth should
never be violated there must, however,
be some exception. If. for instance. {,
murderer should ask you which way
man Is gone
"Now, I have set down the distinct
statements Of Taylor, Paley and John
son. Would any one give ever so little
weight to these statements in forming
a real estimate Of the veracity of the
writer's if they We're now alive? Were
Il man who is so fierce with Alphonsv
to meet Paley or johnson tomorrow in
society would he look upon him as a
liar. a knave, as dishonest and un-
trustworthy? I am sure he would not.
Why. then. does he not deal out the
same measures to Catholic priests

Whelmed with confusion, his head
sunk on his breast. He said to him.
self: "World, know you now; courts
of law, never shall you see me again.
And turning his back ON the assembly,
he withdrew to his own house, inces-
sanity repeating to himself: "World,
l know you now."' And this is the
man who is so fippantly pronounced
to be patron of lying.'
Having thus presented the ''patron
of lying" DIR. Newman told of the
Catechism of the Council of Trent,
prepared specially for the use of Cath
olics preachers-how strictly it enjoins
upon the clergy the duty of warning
their people against lying, great or
small, or for any cause whatever, and
then he cited, as follows, the example
and teaching of the founder of the
Order in which he lived.
ITO one other authority 1 appeal on
this subject, which commands from
me the attention of special kind, for
they are the words of a father.
est. Philip says the Roman Ora.
torian, who wrote his life, had par
ticular dislike of affectation both in
himself and others, in speaking, in
| dressing, or in anything else.
"'He avoided all ceremony, which
savored of worldly compliment, and
always showed himself a great stia.
Ter for Christian simplicity in every
thing; so that when he had to deal
with men of worldly prudence, he did
not readily accommodate himself to
them.
"'And he avoided as much as DOS.
sible having anything to do with two.
faced persons, who did not 20 simply
and straightforwardly to work in
their transactions.
"'As for liars, he could not endure
them, and he continually reminded his
spiritual children to avoid them as
they would a pestilence.'
'These are the principles on which
l have acted before I was a Catholic:
these are the principles which, I trust,
will be my stay and guidance to the
end"
Here are interesting passages from
the great Apologize. We hardly think
that Mr.. Goodwin Smith, clever though
he be, would find it easy to reconcile
them with his theory that the author
was person lacking in love of truth.

ditlon was not due to the accident OF
which she complains against the city.
| DIR. RoOS BECAME ANGRY.
The plaintiff called DIR. S. p. Long
| street as the first witness in rebuttai
| He stated positively that at the time
Miss Dufin was at his office to be ex-
amined by the defendants physicians,
| DR.. E. G.. Roos and DR.. J. Il. OBrien,
Dr. Roos became angry when Miss
Duf1in refused to let him participate in
| the examination, because he was IAN
| avowed enemy and personally OBJ
noxious," and that he turned upon her
and declared, You have no case, and
I will knock you out in court"
Miss Duffin was then called and cor
roborated Dr. Longstreet as to DR..
Roos' alleged utterance. She then pro-
ceeded to.deny explicitly various of the
allegations made by the defendant's
witnesses which tended to show that
she was nearly blind long before the
accident took place.
She never suggested partnership to
Miss Shaw, for her friend, Judge Hand
ley had advised her against ever going
into partnership, She never bent over
her plate when cutting meat in the
Mitchell dining room, unless 1t was
when necessary to put weight on the
knife to dissect the Mitchell dining
room tenderloin.
The Mitchells and their friends were
unfriendy to her. Miss Dufiin tried to
show, by reason of dispute resulting
from her charges for making a dress
for Mrs. Mitchell. She fatty denied that
she told DR.. Gates that she had had
trouble with her eyes for many years.
What she did tell him was that she had
had an operation performed in Phila-
delphia. when she was girl, to cure a
"squint" in one eye. She never played
cards at the Cummings home, she said,
and positively repudiated the distinc-
tion of the humorous Mr. Kelly's COM
pany as partner in euchre.
She did not go to Dr. Roos' office on
November %, but did go there early in
December, and had the experience of
being rudely elected, so she says, when
she offered only Sc on her bill of $25.
Mrs. Mitchell was recalled for further
cross-examination. but did not respond
When City Solicitor Wtason and As
sistant Solicitor Davis were informed
that the only testimony the plaintiff
wanted from Mrs. Mitchell was that
the Mitchells had the contract for fur
nishing meals to the city for prisoners
at the station house, they agreed to ad-
init it of record.
There may be some further rebuttal
and sur-rebuttal testimony this morn
ing, but at the most it will not take up
more than an hour.
City Solicitor Watson will argue the
case for the defense, and Major War
rem for the plaintiff. The speeches and
Judge Gordons charge will likely con-
sumo the whole day.

Special Session of Court.

President Judge Edwards yester-
day handed down an order providing
for a special session of criminal court
during the week beginning February
24-which is Lackawanna week in the
supreme court.
The purpose of the special session is
to clear up the cases that will be left
over from the regular February term.
There are two murder trials and a
number of other big cases on the regu-
lar list, and this, it is almost surety,
will make it impossible to reach all of
the 3S4 cases in the two weeks of the
regular term. Cases left over will be
placed on the list for the special week
and two outside judges called in to
try them.
1t may be that the list for the spe-
cial term will not be as large as antici-
pated as it is understood that verdicts
of mol pros are to be taken in the
bribery cases against c. w. Mckinney,
Simon Thomas and possibly some 9TH
ers in which the Municipal League is
the prosecutor

Two suits were instituted yesterday
by the street car strikers, through their
attorney, Clarence Balentine.
One of them Is on Judgment note
for $40 and has as defendant Charles
II. Keller, a member who quit the union
and returned to work The other has
as defendant DR.. II. Il. Lutz, who is
alleged to have slandered the executive
board of Division i6S, Amalgamated
Association of Street Railway EN-
ployes.
The first suit discloses the fact that
the relief fund which the strikers dis
tributed was given out only as a loan.
Each man receiving relief was required
to sign a thirty-day cut-throat judg-
ment note, on which an execution can
be issued against anything the signer
possesses, not excluding wearing ap-
parel other than that on his person,
and not even excluding this, If the man
happened to be taking BATH or was
undressed in bed.
The note on which the suit was
brought was signed by Keller October
10. 1901. He returned to work shortly
afterwards.
Similar suits are to be brought against
all the eX-strikers who received relief.
The case against Lutz is based on al
legged statements he made at the time
he supposed he was settling the strike.
On January Is, it is averred in the
statement, he declared in the presence
of divers persons, that 1.-The executive
board of Division 1853, Street Car Mems
union, have failed and are unable to
account to Division 16S for $1,100, and
they are - - -" The next day,
so the declaration says, Lutz declared:
"A certain social club is having BAN
quet at the rooms of the executive
board of Division 16S, Street Car Mems
union, and the executive board of
Division 1853. Street Car Mems union,
are furnishing the money out of the
divisions money"
The divers persons referred to are
the committee from the union who
waited on LutZ, representing them
selves as being in the movement to
take the control of the strike out of
the hands of the executive committee.
the purpose of their visit being to find
out what Lutz and the genuine insur-
gent committee of five We're up to.
Damages in the sum Of $1,000 are
asked. Attorney Balentine entered a
rule in Prothonotary Copeland's office
giving notice of the purpose of the
plaintiffs to choose arbtrators Febru-
airy s, at . O'Clock a. m. The plaintiffs
are enumerated as follows: P. j. Shea.
