MADE AN ARCHBISHOP
BISHOP BLENK OF PORTO RICO
SUCCEEDS cHAPPELLE.

Right Rev. James n. Blenk, bishop of
Forto Rico, has been appointed archbishop
OF New Orleans. to fill the vacancy created
by the death Of Archbishop Chapelle. Arch
bishop Blenk left here this afternoon for
Baltimore for a conference with Cardinal
Gibbons.
The new archbishop in going to New Or
leans to the field OF labor he occupied before
beginning his work IN Porto Rico, which
dates from shortly after the American
occupation. II was while attached to the
Marist community at New Orleans that
Father Blenk was appointed bishop Of
Porto Rico. where 1t Is said his work has
been eminen.ly satisfactory to the ecclesias-
teal authorities. He is about ffty-two
years OF age.
The new archbishop is well known IN this
city. He was born in New Orleans in 1856.
and received his earlier education in that
city. Later he went to France. where he
devoted two years to the study of philoso-
phy. Then went to Dublin, where he took
course In higher mathematics, and after
ward taught In st, Marys College, Dun
dalk which Is under the direction OF the
Marist Fathers At the close of his en-
gagement there he returned to Dublin,
where he studied theology, and when he
completed his course was there ordained q
priest. He returned to America year
later, and was made director Of several
branches in Jefferson College.
He held this position for Ave years, when
he was made president OF the institution
but within two years he took another ex-
tended trip abroad. When he returned
again he was appointed pastor of the
Church of the Holy Name of St. Mary's
Algfers. La. His success in that uncul-
tivated territory was a striking testimonial
Of his qualities in missionary work, and
he was recommended for appointment as
bishop OF Porto Rico by Archbishop Cha
pelle. His work In that new field further
demonstrated his fitness for new pastures
and the zeal and ability that he displayed
on the island aroused much comment. In
February he was appointed. unoficialiy, as
archbishop of New Orleans
Archbishop Blenk went to Baltimore April
Is to attend the centennial exercises of the
Baltimore Cathedral, and was guest In
that city until last Wednesday. when he
came here, where lie remained until yes
terday afternoon. He was q frequent Wis
itor at the White House, where he con-
ferred with the President on Porto Rican
matters. He is now a guest of Cardinal
Gibbons in Baltimore.

represent the two different classes of those
who need heip-those who are longing for

VERSION IN RINGING SPEECH
IN NEW YORK.

New York, Sept. 1.-Following his
notable reception and address at Mad.
ison Square Garden William Jennings
Bryan rested at the Victoria hotel In
physical preparation for his trip into
Connecticut.
This Is not Mr.. Bryan's first invas-
ion of New England, but bids fair to
be the most pleasant. Surrounded by
hosts of friends, including representa-
tives of all the New England states,
he spoke during the day at Central
Green In New Haven on the very spot
where during the heat OF the cam
paign In 1896 he was frequently inter-
rupted by youthful element among
his auditors. Mr. Bryan long ago for.
gave his disturbers and anticipated
his return to the university town with
keen delight.
Arriving at New Haven Mr. Bryan
was met By Mayor Studley. w. H. H.
Hewitt, Alexander Troup and Lieuten-
ant Governor Woodruff. Luncheon
for the party was served In Music hall
at 12:45. Mr.. Bryan spoke briefly
following the luncheon. His principal
address, however, was on Central
Green at o'clock, when an immense
crowd heard him. Mr.. Bryan later
left for Bridgeport, where he spoke at
$40 o'clock.
Covers were laid for 600 at the
luncheon DR.. A. B. Fuller OF New
Haven was POSTMASTER
Bryan Rousingiy Cheered.
As Mr.. Bryan passed into the hall
he was rousingly cheered, everybody
standing, and the more enthusiastic
ones climbing up on chairs and wav-
Ing hats. Mayor Studley. Lieutenant
Governor Woodruff, Ex-Governor Gar
van of Rhode Island and ex-Congress-
man George Fred Williams of Massa-
chusetts were chief guests. In the
gallery were many women.
Mr. Bryan was introduced by MIR.
Fuller as a man respected all over the
world. AS the guests arose there
were prolonged cheers. Mr.. Bryan
said he found it difficult to Speak at
all upon political subjects without be-
ing misconstrued, and as a conse-
quenca he would say nothing political
for fear he would be misinterpreted.
He spoke about his trip around the
world, saying he took 1t for an educa-
tion and had found It to be as educat-
ing as he had expected.
When Mr.. Bryan had concluded he
was cheered enthusiastically for sew
eral minutes, after which Ex-Governor
Garvan of Rhode Island made few
remarks. Another speaker at the
luncheon was Former Congressman
George Fred Williams Of Massachu-
setts.
