ing to Everybody.

Rome. Dec. 1.-THE mission of Mgr
Patrick w. Riordan, Archbishop of San
francisco, is more important than was
believed, he having undertaken to
sound Pope Plus about the appoint
ment of another American cardinal
He had an audience with the Pontiff,
and it is reported that Mgr. Riordan
approached the subject by enumerating
the ecclesiastic, religious and political
reasons initiating in favor of a new
American cardinal
The Pope answered thta he had no
objection, and asked Mgr Rfordan's
opinion as to a choice among the pre-
lates of the hierarchy in the United
States. Mgr. Riordan recalled his for
mer views, which were expressed I'M
der Pope Leo. saying that the appoint
ment of Archbishop Ireland would be a
cause of satisfaction in Catholics and
also in Protestants, and would raise the
prestige of the church in America.
The situation in the United States in
general and in the diocese of San
Francisco in particular, was discussed
at length. The archbishop made a
most satisfactory report regarding the
clergy and religious institutions i'll Cal
itornia.
The matter of appointing the Rev
Edward Hanna of Rochester coadjutor
archbishop Of San Francisco also was
discussed. Mgr. RiOrdan will remain in
Rome until this question is decided by
the congregation of the propaganda
This, it is expected, will be done some
time in January.

their interest in past years in creating

the continuation of that interest which
fits us out complete in every particular
and sends us out on this great practice
cruise. to visit our friends and support
