No Investigation to Be Made of the
Diocese

Much interest was aroused early this
week i'm the cabled report from Rome
to the effect that Pope Plus Y. had in
structed Monsignor Chatard that an
investigation had been begun into the
financial condition of American do
ceses His holiness was quoted as
saying that he had grave doubts as TO
the judicial management Of funds of
the church and that a band of monks
would visit the American bishops and
secure an accounting The act of the
pontiff was. the story stated, inspired
by the Waggaman failure which came
near costing the Catholic university at
Washington its very existence. The
repbrt set out at length the fact that
il was the diOceses of Sioux City,
Omaha and Denver which would be the
especial objects Of inquiry.
In an interview Bishop n. c. Matz OF
the diocese of Denver denied emphat-
lcally that any such investigation is in
progress in Colorado, or that such is
planned in so far as he is aware. He
expressed the belief that he would have
been appraised of the fact if such
course were in contemplation and said;
There is no truth whatever in the
statement that anything is wrong i'm
any of the western dioceses.' said Bis
hop Matz, when asked about the mat
ter
1T is the gossip of idle people, who
have heard nothing that would lead
me to believe otherwise. If there was
any truth TO the report I would have
been notified Of what was to take place
in consequence of it"

Officer Shot q Blind Tiger.

CHARLEsToN, April John Sullivan,
an employe of N. sotille, in this city, was
shot and perhaps fatally wounded ny q
dispensary constable last night. This is
the first homicide of the kind in Governor
Heyward's administration. When the
dispensary law was enacted Charleston
thought it an outrage on the liberty of the
citizens there, and the unwavering mora
sentiment against the law has made its
enforcement difficult. The barkeepers
denied the right of license, continued IN
business in daring and fragrant opposition
to the law, just as the moonshiners think
the Federal law is unjust.
There have been many clashes in
Charleston, but heretofore no homicldes
at the hands of constables. Sottille is the
Italian consul and conducts a cafe near
the postofice.
Sullivan and two negroes had gone to
Mount Pleasant, across the harbor, where
the liquor in bulk seems to have been
stored. There they were met by Con
stables Owens and Hudson, who conis'
Gated boatload of liquor. Sullivan start,
ed to the city but came back and attacked
the constables with an oar. 1t is stated
that Hudson did the shooting, but both
constables are in Jail. Hudson had been
chief of police Of Walterboro, Governor
Heyward's home town, and has a good
reputation.
