ST. PATRICK'S DAY
Will Remain Holy Day-Not Affected
by Mortu Proprio.

Although the Mortu Proprio of Pope
Plus X. limits the number of holy days
to "All and every Sunday, Christmas,
Circumcision, Epiphany, and Ascen-
sion Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the
Immaculate Conception and Assump-
ton Of Mary, Mother of God, SIS. Peter
and Paul, and lastly, All Saints" still
it contains clause by which Ire
lands national Holyday will still re-
main a Holyday.
Clause Ill of the Mortu Proprio
reads: 1.-THE feast days of patrons are
not subject othe ecclesiastical pre-
cept spoken Of above But the Bish-
ops can transfer the exterior solem-
nifty to the next following Sunday"
Hence unless the bishops of Ireland
wish to make the change, ST. Patrick S
day will continue to be observed as
in the past.

CARDINAAlDIES
His Eminence Cardinal Moran Passes
Away Suddenly.

The report of the sudden and un-
expected death of His Eminence Car
dinal Moran, Archbishop of Sidney,
New South Wales, comes as shock
to the entire Catholic world. The aged
Cardinal was found on the floor of his
bedroom in Manly palace on August
16 in state of collapse. Death re-
suited from syncope which is an in
ternission of the action of the heart.
His Eminence Patrick Francis Car
dinal Moran was born at Leighlin-
bridge, diocese of Kildare, Ireland, on
the 18th of September, 1880, leaving
him little less than 81 years old at
the time of his death. He was Gre
lated and proclaimed Cardinal by Leo
XIII in 1885. Cardinal Moran's death
causes the twenty-third vacancy in
the Sacred College. The Sacred Col
lege when complete consists of 70
members. At the present time there
are only AZ.
Cardinal Moran was an 1rishman
whose separation from his native land
had not diminished his love for it. He
was staunch supporter Of the Irish
party and never lost an opportunity
to lend it his moral and financial aid.
The death OF Cardinal Moran was
not made known to the Pope at once
as it was feared the shock would have
a depressing effect on his health.

Plus K. RECOVERING
Late Dispatches Indicate That He
Will Soon Be Well.


The condition of His Holiness Pope
Plus X is much improved. Late re-
ports indicate that he is again able to
be about his room and to discuss Off
cial matters with Cardinal Merry del
Val, papal secretary of state. His
knee which has been causing him
pain for some days and on which a
slight operation had to be performed
not long ago for the removal Of puss,
is much better
The hot, sultry weather has been
one Of the factors in impairing the
strength of his Holiness. With re-
turn of cooler weather the Holy Fa-
ther will probabl regain his normal
condition. Catholics all over the
world are anxious to see their beloved
spiritual leader again restored to his
health.

COFFEE TRUST
GETS ROASTED
Combine Exists In Brazil and That is
Why the Price Has
Gone UP.

CHICAGO, Ill, Nov. 17.-Charges
that a coffee combine exists that is
"the most monstrous imposition in the
history of human commerce" were
made before the National Coffee
Roasters' association by Thomas j..
Webb of Chicago Webb urged the
association to initiate movement to
overthrow Brazilian domination of
the coffee market.
1--WE have to pay famine prices for
coffee when no famine exists" he
said. 1--WE are at the mercy of syn
dicate of bankers backed by the SOW
ereign country of Brazil. 1t is the
first instance in the history where a
sovereign country has abrogated its
legislative powers to a committee
dominated by aliens.
"Rrazil produces S5 per cent Of the
worlds coffee The government is-
sued bonds to the amount of s75,o0o,'
900 to buy surplus stock of coffee.
The coffee Is turned over to the bank
ing syndicate and it is shipped from
.torage to consumers. The commit
tee of this syndicate is in absolute
control of the coffee market OF the
world
Herein Brazil, by abrogating her
legislative powArs, has violated her
treaty obligations and the matter
sffould be subject of inquiry by the
United States state department"
