the March number of The North American Re
view from Cardinal Gibbons. in which he reviews
or refutes caegorically charges made by ministers
of certain other denominations affecting the loyalty
Of members Of the Catholic communion The article
in part follows:
Fifteen millions of Catholics live their lives in
our land with undisturbed belief in the perfect
harmony existing between their religion and their
duties as American citizens. They love their
trv with the spontaneous and ardent love OF all
patriots because It is their country and the
10 them Of untold blessings. They prefer its form
Of government before any other They admire its
Institutions and the spirit of it's laws. They accept
the Constitution without reserve. with desire
C,athofCs to see It changed in any feature. They
can with a clear conscience swear to uphold 1t.
The Cardinal ends by saying that American
Catholics rejoice in our separation OF Church and
state and 1 can conceive combination Of cir
clmstances likely TO arise which would make
,nton desirable either Church State We
leave II to Church and State in other lands
their problems for their best interests. For

Two persons were rescued from drowning in
the Hudson OF the American Sugar Refining
Company's dock at Yonkers yesterday afternoon.
The rescues were both reported within half an
hours time, and queerly enough the second per-
to be rescued was the who did the
rescuing in the first case.
Miss Alice Reagen, of RiverdaIe avenue. was
one OF a number of boys and girls skating on
a strip of ice along the river shore. Miss
Reagan broke through. Her companions fed to
the shore and she went under several times, but
the current carried her clear of the Ice.
The Swedish steamship Bergen was in the
river. anchored off the sugar dock. Hans Will
korem, a sailor, heard the cries of those who
when the Ice broke. He plunged in and
dragged Miss Reagan out She was taken home
suffering from shock. Wilkoren changed his
clothing and resumed work. He had to go aloft,
and while engaged, lost his footing and grip and
fell into the water.
His fall witnessed from shore by Thomas
Fogarty of No Maple street and John Sanity
Of No. 56 Buena Vista avenue. They put out
in a boat and reached Wilkoren before any one
from the Bergen could He put aboard the
ship and revived.

by Representative Cook, of Colorado, yesterday,
in which he attacked the character of the Presi-

character 10 the House was offered by Repre-
sentative Tavuey, Of Minnesota. Representative
Champ Clark, the minority leader. opposed the
resolution the ground that its adoption would
set bad precedent and would establish an OBJ
noxious censorship the remarks of members.
II was passed, however. and Representatives
Mann Perkins. Foster, Howard and Clayton
were appointed on the committee. There is lit
tie doubt that Mr. Cooks speech will be ex-
plunged.
The House devoted its attention TO the sundry
civil bill most of the day, and finally passed it,
carrying an aggregate of S137,OOO,000. No i'm
portant changes were made in it. although an
attempt was made to pass an amendment set

bate the amendment. which was offered by Rep

feated by a vote of 113 to 81.
The appropriation contained in the bill for
raising the hulk of the battleship Maine in
Havana Harbor was stricken out point of
order made by Representative Douglass, of Ohio
Mr- Douglass, in explaining his reasons for
opposing the paragraph. said that it was time to
stop remembering the Maine" and that the
catastrophe should be forgotten. If he
said, lit is for a commercial reason that the
Maine should be raised. let the Republic of Cuba
raise it If ii is matter of justice. let the
kingdom of Spain do the work There are no
bodies in that wreck now. Those brave fellows
have long since furnished food for the fishes It
would be wrong to raise their CHASTITY relics to
reopen the hearts Of those who lost sons
m that catastrophe. Another reason that have
for making this point of order is that il would
revive the intermina bic discussion to whether
the Maine sunk from external
internal explosion"
Representative Sulzer made a strong plea fo-
the appropriation.
