The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-07-14

More than 5000 people were pre-
sented to Cardinal sSatolI at the pub
lie reception given in his honor by the
Knights of Columbus at the Ryan hotel
last night, but the crowd was SO adj
nllrably handled that all passed by the
receiving line in less than three hours
and not one failed to meet his emf
nence.
Through it all Cardinal Sato1li, six
ty-six years old, stood by the side of
Archbishop Ireland and greeted each
person with a hearty handshake. If
the cardinal tired Of the ordeal, there
was nothing in his expression or de-
meanor to indicate it. for the last per-
son to greet him was accorded the
same hearty grasp of the hand and the
same radiant smile as were those who
passed by earlier.
In the receiving line aside from Car
dinal Satolli and Archbishop Ireland,
were Archbishop Redwood, of New
Zealand jsBishops Scannell, of Omaha;
O'Gorman, of Sioux Falls; Stanley, of
Fargo: Cotter, of Winona McGelrick,
of Duluth; Stariha, of Leeds, S. D.;
Trobec. of st. Cloud; Lehman, of Great
Falls, and Mgr. O'Keefe, of West Point
AT the head Of the line were George T.
Redington, DR.. E. B. Buckley and John
Cauliefd, representing the knights of
Columbus, whose duty it was to intro
duce the guests to Archbishop Ireland,
who In turn presented them to Car
dinal Satolh, whose position was at the
right of the st. Paul archbishop.
Hotel Corridors Thronsed
Two hours before the arrival of the.
distinguished guest of honor, the cor
ridors Of the Ryan were filed with
people, and shortly after o'clock
when the receiving line had been form
ed, the guests were formed in line and
presented to his eminence.
The receiving line was in the corner
OF the corridor on the parlor floor which
was appropriately decorated in the
papal colors of white and yellow and
American flags. The cardinal was cas-
lily distinguished by his rich robe and
cap of red. The reception was one of
the largest ever held in st. Paul, and
while the Knights of Columbus were
not expecting so many people, those in
charge of the reception met the condi-
lions in splendid manner and there
was not hitch in the proceedings.
Cardinal Satolli during his address
later in the evening, complimented the
knights upon the manner in which
the reception had been handled.
After the thousands of people had
been presented to his eminence the
doors of the main dining room were
thrown open and 1000 men and women
crowded into the room and about the
entrance and stood while addresses

bishop Ireland and Judge William
Louis Kelly
The address of Cardinal Satolli, while
brief, was especially gratifying to the
Knights of Columbus, since it con-
tanned the first expression of recogni-
ton ever made by a high official of the
church. 1t was more gratifying for the
reason that it has been ru1nored that
one of the purposes of the cardinals
visit to America was to investigate the
association. His words of praise for
the Knights of Columbus left no doubt
as to his high regard for the order. q
Judge Kelly Welcomes Cardinal
When the dining room at the Ryan
had been filled with the knights and
their friends who desired to pay their
respects to the cardinal, Judge William
Louis Kelly, of st. Paul, arose and well
coined his eminence to ST. Paul and
the archdiocese. The cardinal respond
ed in a brief address, after which Arch
bishop Ireland made a few remarks, in
the course of which he extended to
Cardinal .Satolli an invitation to return
to St. Paul and conSecrate the new
cathedral when it shall have been fin
ished.
The acceptance of the invitation,
upon the condition that his health
would permit, on the part of his emf
nence, was received with enthusiastic
applause
Satolli a welcome to the city and arch
diocese, said
