ROME. Aug. 15.-The conservation Of the
Rev. ]. ]. Harry, of st. Louis. as arch
bishop of Manila took place to-day in the
Franciscan Church of St. Anthony. Added
interest to the was given by the
fact that the first archbishop to be conse-
Grated under Plus X was an American.
Cardinal SatolIi oficiated, and was as
sisted by two bishops. The new archbishop
was annointed with holy oil on the temples
and ON palms of his hands. He was then
given the Episcopal ring, symbolic of his
marriage with the church; the mitre and
the pastorate staff of power. Archbishop
Harry then offered Cardinal Satolli two
lighted torches, two loaves of bread and
two small gilded barrels of wine as SYM
bols of his love towards his consecrator.
This Offering was followed by the kiss of
peace from Cardinal SatoIli.
The service was accompanied by sweet
music. 1t was a solemn moment when the
new archbishop walked through the church,
imparting his first Episcopal benediction to
the kneeling congregation.
Among those present at the conservation
were the Rev. Dennis O'Connel. rector of
the Catholic University at Washington;
Monsignor Kennedy. with the members of
the American College; Bishop Hendrick, Of
Cebu, and his brother, Father Joseph Hen
drick; M~onsignor Edward W.. Fowler and
Father David Fleming, formerly superior
general of the Franciscans.
After the ceremony Refreshments were
served in the refectory of the franciscan
monastery. The fact that the first American
archbishop of Manila was consecrated in
the church, which is the seat of the general

four orders objected to in the Philippines,
was much commented on.
Cardinal Satolli later gave at his resi-
dence in the basilica of st. John Lateran
a dinner in honor of Archbishop Harty. at
which were present Rector O'ConneI, Mgr.
Kennedy, Mgr. Fowler, Mgr. Tecchi, sec
rotary of the Consistorial Congregation. and
Bishops Panigi and Toneti. who assisted
Cardinal Satoli at the conservation cere-
mony. Toasts were drunk TO the Pope, Pres
ident Roosevelt and to the success of Arch
bishop Harry in his labors in the Philip
pines. Archbishop HARRY will leave Rome
next Wednesday.
Cardinal Gibbons was unable. to assist at
the conservation of Archbishop Harry be-
cause to-day being the fete day of his titular
church, Santa Maria Di Trastevere. he had
to assist at mass there. The Cardinal left
Rome tonight for Switzerland, where he
will remain some time with a friend TO re-
cover from his labors in Rome. The
cardinal, however, is only suffering from
a slight lassitude; otherwise he is perfectly
well. Before his departure he received most
cordial visits from all the cardinals still in
Rome, who wished to manifest their esteem
and affection for him.
Speaking to the Associated Press repre-
sentative, Cardinal Gibbons said the con-
claye and the election OF the Pope Will re-
main the most precious remembrance of his
life. He repeated that he felt the greatest
satisfaction at the election of Plus y, add
ing that he was proud and happy to have
been able TO have the American pilgrimage
received the day after the election of the
new Zone. Their reception. he SAID. being
the first of all, was an event that neither
Plus Y nor the Americans will ever forget.
