Cardinal Gibbons Says Total
Abstinence System Would
Prove Failure in Cities Like
Chicago.

Chicago. ILL.,, Aug. 4.-That the estab-
lishment of total abstinence system
In Chicago and other large cities
would be impracticable and would put
a premium on the Illicit sale of intoxi-
eating drinks, was the opinion express
ed today by Cardinal James Gibbons of
the Roman church in America, and at
a time when 1900 Catholic total absti-
nence advocates are gathering here to
report progress and to adopt measures
for further advancement of their
cause, his observations are noteworthy
The Baltimore prelate is recognized
one of the hearty supporters of the
country wide total abstinence move.
ment
Il am heartily in sympathy with the
total abstinence movement said the
Cardinal. 1T is a campaign of great
import and wide influence. and I hope
1T will spread to the farthest corners
of the nation.
I'm the rural parts of the country
and in the smaller towns and cities
there is every sign of progress and a
permanent foothold, which eventually
must mean success and widespread
prohibition. However much l am in
favor of total abstinence though.
fear that in the large cities like Chica
go it would not prove feasible. The
problem is one which will require
much time and the best efforts of oul
Legislators and statesmen.
II am convinced the total abstinence
movement will continue to make head
way. It is cause worthy of the best
there Is in American citizenship"
Turning his attention to the divorce
question. Cardinal Gibbons said:
1T is pretty we'll known that I an
uncompromisingly against divorce n
the arch enemy of the church and re
ligion and as society's worst foe.
am opposed to it, not merely as .
churchman. but also as a student of 80
ciety. It means the breaking up o
homes and the wrecking Of established
institutions. Any one who has thu
right conception of religion and tn.
sacredness OF home ties can not d.
otherwise than oppose the severing u
| those ties"
Cardinal Gibbons expressed his dis
approval of the revolutionary outbreal
in Spain.
Il greatly deplore." he said. "the ex
cesses of the revolution and the law

a nation has fallen. have been mucl
shocked to hear of the acts of the rev

was omitted in the interests of hu-
for during the forenoon a long
list Of pardon cases We're considered.

cussed for an hour or more the per
sonnet of the new tariff board,
changes i'm the interstate commerce
and antitrust acts, and measures in
the navy department.
In the makeup of the new tariff
board. a list of 40 or more names FOR
the three places We're examined. The
president paused long over the name
Of James b. Reynolds. assistant sec
rotary of the treasury. Regarding the
proposed changes in the interstate
commerce act. il is stated that the
administration will try to relieve the
board from the work of investigat-
ing rates and alleged violations of tho
act and shift such labors to tho de-
partment of commerce.
After consideration Of the Sherman
antitrust act. the administration is
firm that only the most carefully con-
sidered changes can be suggested to
congress and that those suggestions
should deal only with the application
of cases which 1t is believed were
never in contemplation by the trainers
of the original statute.
