Priest Replies to Pope.

In his reply to Pope Plus ", for which
he has been virtually communicated
by the head of the church, Father Tyr
rell, the English Jesuit, refuses to accept
the implications of the Pope; document
that he, as a Modernist, places himself
outside the pale of the church. In Sc
we're terms he arraigns the document for
Identifying true Catholicism with sci
ence theory and psychology that are as
strange as astrology to the modern mind,
and are practically unknown outside SEM
mary walls, save to the historian of phi
losophy." He says the encyclical as an
argument falls dead for every one who
regards its science theory as obsolete ;
for all who believe that truth has not
been stagnating for centuries in theolog-
ical seminaries, but has been steadily
streaming on with ever-ncreasing force
and volume in the channels which liberty
has opened TO its progress. He charac-
terizes the document as "a clear and
final demonstration of the futility of pour
ing new wine into old bottles; of the at
tempt to gather the experiences of the
twentieth century under the categories of
the thirteenth; of coming to terms
with an sge that is dead and buried
in word, of coquetting with the impos-
sible."

Walsh is under two indictments of

used in 1905, it is charged, for building
his railroads in southern Indiana.
Walsh began business life as a news
boy. Walsh was considered the finan-

CHICAGO.

Steady improvement appears in
financial conditions, further gold inn
portations, increasing note circulation
and larger use of checks in place OF
specie making it easier to view the out
look with confidence. The pressure for
currency is gradually finding relief, and
with the liquidation and readjustments
in process a return TO normal condi-
tons is closer at hand. Pay roll needs
are now more easily provided for, and
the new medium of exchange cOnserves
moneys at the banks and is readily ac-
cepted in ordinary transactions.
Savings banks depositors have virtu-
ally ceased giving withdrawal notices,
and there is more activity in New York
exchange. Foreign buying of products
is yet in excess of year ago. and
continuation of this favorable factor
seems likely and will provide the means
for additional purchases of gold abroad
to strengthen local bank resources.
Mercantile collections are no worse
than expected, and, while there are
more calls for extensionsCthe record of
failures makes a better exhibit than
for both last week and year ago.
Distributive trade is favored by sea
sonable weather, and advices as to both
local and interior activity in the neceS-
saries remain satisfactory 1t is for
tunate that stocks of fall and winter
goods are not excessive. Most buyers
bought coaservatively in advance, and
those now in the market limit selec-
tions to ascertained needs. Dealings
in the principal jobbing branches thus
far this year make new high records,
and the present curtailed buying is not
regarded as more than temporary. The
movement Of holiday goods shows salts
factory proportions
Receipts Of raw materials for fac
tory consumption fall below those at
this time last year. an indication that
there is no unhealthy pressure upon
forwarders, and the prices for finished
products have undergone no especial
change. More closing down of plants
for repairs and reduction in hands and
working hours appear to be mainly for
the purpose of bridging over the diff
Guilty in obtaining funds.
The lack OF currency throughout the
agricultural sections accounts for de-
creased marketings Of crops. but it is
also evident that there are large with
holdings for higher prices.

NEW YORK.

Trade as whole is quieter and in
dustrial operations are being curtailed
in accord with the REIMBURSEMENT proc
ess forced by the prevailing monetary
stringency and the spread of the acute
currency scarcity to the country at
large. Evidences of this are found in
the restriction of wholesale buying for
future delivery, in the confinement Of
jobbing trade to purely filling-in pro-
portions, and in the curtailment of re-
tail buying by the necessary employ
ment of credit instruments. In manu-
featuring lines there is apparently a
determination to fill orders only as
they are received and an indisposition
to accumulate stocks. the result here
being a slowing down of operations
pending tae settlement of affairs upon
a substantial basis. This industrial
quieting is also in no small degree due
to the fact that manufacturers unable
or unwilling to ask their employees to
take pay i'm credit instruments chose
rather to reduce production to a point
where operations can be conducted free
from dispute as to the methods of pay
ment employed.-Bradsrr CONNER

In a contribution to the Contemporary
Review of London, Sir w. Nj. Ramsay
makes the contention that nation canno'
live without some real and profound hold
on the supernatural, illustrating his ar
gument by reference to the Pauline the
ology and the Roman Empire. He reasons
that, while the Christianity of Paul was
crushed for the time being by the de-
crees of the Roman emperors, this policy
of repression and massacre proved the
destruction of the empire, while the re-
ligious principles which had been so bit
terly antagonized became important fac
tors in the political life as soon as free
dom of thought and action began to
spread over Europe.
