He was asked merely to Identify a
letter which he had written recently
to j. NJ. Sheridan. special attorney
for the government in the inquiry. in
reply to request from Sheridan for
conference concerning facts to
which the former field chief could
testify. CLAWS wrote I'm reply that
he would meet the prosecutor. but
that a conference was unnecessary

-FOUR AMERICAN CANDIDATES
FOR HIGH HONOR IN CHURCH
Seventeen Vacancies Sacred College Which May Be Filled
Consistory Be Held Vatican Next Monh-Canada and
England Also Have Aspirants-Spain Now Leads
In Number of Cardinals

/! Rome. Nov. a0.--The sudden change
of the pope.s plans. which bring
about a meeting OF the consistors in
December and aonther in the spring,
! again brings up the question of who
will be honarcd from the United
States.
There are at present no fewer than
II vacancies in the Sacred College of
Cardinals, and high hopes are enter
taiE-d by Catholic dignataries all over
the world that at the coming con-
sistnry Pope Plus y may bestow the
red hat upon them.
Ordinarily the sacred college should
consist of 20 cardinals. but this mum,
Der has scarcely ever been reached.
The members of the sacred college at
present number only 3d. of whom 80
are Italians. Some nations complain
that they have been neglected lately.
and many countries desire to be more
fully represented in the highest body
of the Roman Catholic church.
1t is pointed out for instance. that
there are 100000 Catholics in the
United States, i'm addition to those in
the Philippines. Porto Rieo and Guam
and that therefore the United States
becomes the fourth Catholic power in
the world following Immediately after
France. italy and Austria.
America has only one cardinal. while
Spain, with 100000 Catholics and
with considerably less influence i'm the
world, has from five to seven cardi-
mails.
The difficulty. however is as to
which candidates shall be chosen for
the high position. Among the fav-
orites are Mgr. Farley. the archbishop
of New York. and Mgr Quigley. the
archbishop of Chicago. who have the
largest. number of Catholics in their
dioeeses. Archbishop Ireland of st.
Paul. is also supported as being the
best exponent of the American spirit.
and Mgr. Ryan. archbishop of Phil
adelphia. as being the doyen of the
American hierarchy
England is another nation which is
strongly advancing her claims to be
honored by the pope. Ever since Car
dinal Vaughan died I'm 1903 she has
not had a cardinal of her own. Ire
land even has only one cardinal. Car
dinal Logue, archbishop of Armagh.
but the Emerald isle can claim to
have two other cardinals of Irish or
