CHANGE is RUMORED
IN CATHOLIC PARISH
Rev. Joseph Farmer Regarded al
Probable Pastor Of st. DOM
mics Church.

Rev. Joseph Farmer Of the Dominican
Oroer Is soon to assume charge of ST.
Dominic's Roman Catholic Church OF this
city. according to q telegram received
in Washington.
Inquiry about the city in Dominican
and other Roman Catholic circles failed
to elicit any further information on the
subject, the general opinion being that
the report Is doubtless a mistake and
that II Father Farmer is to come to
Washington at all 1t will be to take up
work Of the Dominicans other than to
become pastor of st. Dominic's.
The present pastor of st. Dominic's,
Rev. Father Meagher, is in New York
following a recent Endorsement of his
work here by his order, with designa-
ton to return here for an additional
three years.
Rumor Of Another Change.
The information which came to Wash
ingtOn also declared that Rev. w. G.
Scanlon of Immaculate Conception Col
lege. at Brookland, is to take Father
Farmers place in Memphis. Effort to
reach Father Scanlon late yesterday aft
ernoOn was unavailing.
Father Farmer is well known in south
west Washington, it being stated there
that he was formerly assistant pastor
Of ST Dominic's Church and that after
signed to work in Memphis.
