The churches I'm the West Indies. the
Sandwich islands and the Philippines must
hereafter be included in the statistics OF
the United States. The directory for 1902.
however, adds the diocese of Havana only
and the vicariate OF Hawaii. II incorrectly
gives Mgr. Sbarretti as the bishop OF
Havana, although he had resigned that see
and had been made titular archbishop OF
Ephesus and delegate apostolic 10 the
Philippines long before the directory was
published. II likewise incorrectly contains
Mgr. Chapelle as delegate to the Philip
pines. Ii makes no mention of Mgr. Bar
NADIA as the administrators of Havana and
placed his archdiocese of Santiago away
from Cuba, among the items or the Tor
eign annex. Here, too. among the FOR
eign' details we find Bishop Blenkts do
cese of San Juan de Puerto Rico. the de-
cision of the Supreme Court of the United
States in the case of Mr.. pepke's famous
diamond rings 10 the contrary notwltn-
standing.
In the Porto Rico end of the church of

archbishop and four bishops, and of these
three, the archbishop of Manila and the
bishop of Nigan and Camarines are IN

In view of the issues over the friars'
lands these statistics of the number of par
ishes and missions on the archipelago are
of interest. In charge of secular priests,

The directory gives an alphabetical list
of all the Catholic clergy in the United
