CARDINAL loeuE'S WARnIN6
SEES DANGERS AHEAD FOR THIS
COUNTRY.
We Should, He Says, Be True to the
Lofty Ideals Of the Founders
Of the Republic.

NEW YORK. June Con the eve Oh
his departure for Europe Cardinal Logue,
primate Of Ireland last night issued
farewell statement to the Amercain peo-
pie
The cardinal expressed his gratitude TO
the American people for the cordial re-
cepton they had given him. recorded
realization of his high conception of the
American republics mission and voiced his
conviction that this country is assured
of a glorious future il 1t but be true to
the ideals Of the republics founders.
The cardinal. however. saw dangers
ahead. His note of warning was against
the misuse of prosperity and power. He
referred to his visit to Mount Vernon and
the perfect air of simplicity that he found
marking the homestead and the tomb Oh
Washington, and added:
IF l may be allowed to draw lesson
from Mount Vernon / should like to say
to the American people that the alarming
increase in the number of divorces In the
United States Is a great and crying evil,
full of danger The greatness of any
country must be measured by the
strength and purity of the home Di-
vorce disrupts the home and desecrates
its sanctity. I feel that the American
people appreciate the beneficent influence
OF the Catholic Church in it's fight for the
home in which the first lessons of respect
for authority and the necessity of obedi-
ence must be learned; and these lessons
cannot be instiled into the mind Of the
child if the home is not what it ought

NOT CONTRIBUTED BY RYAN
MONEY SENT TO NEBRASKA FOR
CAMPAIGN IN 1904.
Statement to Mr.. Bryan by W. F.
Sheehan, Then Chairman Of Demo-
cratic Executive Committee.

NEW YORK. June 6-Whatever money
was sent to Nebraska for use in the cam
paign of 1904 was taken from the gen.
eral. fund of the democratic national
committee. which was made up of volun-
tary contributions of many persons. &C
cording to a letter written by William F.
Sheehan of this city to William j. Bry-
an at Lincoln. Neb.. June I and just
made public. The letter bears upon the
allegation. which has been published. that
Thomas F. Ryan contributed $4,000 to
the state campaign in Nebraska in 1904
through William F. Sheeilan. chairman
of the executive committee of the demo-
cratic national committee. who. it was
charged. gave the money 10 T. S. Allen
of Nebraska.
In making the contents of the letter
public Mr.. Saeehans report called atten-
ton to the fact that II bore date Of June
/. and said that there was no delay on
Mr.. Sheehan's part in notifying Mr.. Bry-
an of the facts. The letter to Mr.. Bryan
follows:
Il have read the article published in
the New York World on May Both last
relating to campaign expenditures In the
state OF Nebraska in 1904. In view Of the
fact that 7 was chairman OF the eXecu-
tive committee of the democratic national
committee in that campaign, permit me
to say that whatever money was sent 10
the state Of Nebraska was taken from
the general fund. which money was made
up OF voluntary contributions from many
persons.
"Why there should be any criticism OF
this particular expenditure I am al a loss
to understand. The transaction was
perfectly legitimate one on both sides.
There was not the slightest suggestion
at the time from anyb body that you had
any knowledge on the subject or that
knowledge of the transaction was to be
brought home to you. I think it is proba-
bly needless for me to say that neither
directly nor indirectly was / responsible
for the publication in question. and were
it not for the fact that ] believe an act
of injustice has been done YOU l would
not even say what l have in this letter
yours truly, w. +. SHEEHAN.
