thirds of the stockholders of the com

nit the consolidation of the Boston &
Maine with the New Hampshire leased
lines.

ize itself if necessary for these purposes.

debtedness and to improve it's property.
While the House was voting against
the minority report of the judiciary
committee. the Senate passed the East
man bill which provides for the incor-
poration Of the New Hampshire Rail-
road, if the Boston & Maine leases are
forfeited. This bill is designed to con-
serve the interests of the leased lines

The Notes EXCHANGED

The note delivered by the Chilean
minister 20 Great Britain says thai
wh.a the British squadron appeared
the governor was proceeding to the
cruiser Glasgow TO inform the British
officers of the steps she had taken. but
he had TO turn back, as the British
ships opened fire on the Dresden on
which a flag of truce already had been
surrender.
The captain then gave orders to blow
up the magazine Of the Dresden.
After referring to the hospitality
shown British ships in Chilean waters
and to the long friendship between the
two peoples. the minister says:
Nothing could be n more painful
surprise to US than to see our extremely
cordial attitude repaid by an act which
bears unfortunately all the evidences of
contempt for our sovereign rights. al
though it is probable that nothing was
further from the minds of those by
whom it was unthinkingly committed
British Reply
The British government in its reply,
expresses regret that 4 misunderstanding
arose and adds:
"On~the facts as. stated IN the COM
munication of the Chilean minister, the
British government is prepared to offer
a full and ample apology 10 the Chilean
government"
1t is however pointed out that &C.
eordias tc the British information the
dresden had not accepted internment.

guns trained.
The British reply continues:
'If This is So, and if there were no
means available for enforcing the de-
cision OF the Chilean authorities to in
tern the Dresden she might obviously
had not the British ships taken action
have escaped again to- attack British

The Pope's Letter

Thursday
To our Beloved Sons, James Cardi-

John Cardinal Farley. Archbishop Of
New York. William Cardinal O'Con-
nell Archbishop OF Boston, and to
our other venerable Brethren, the
Archbshops and Bishops of the
United States Of America,
Benedict XIV, Pope.
Beloved Sons and Venerable Breth-
ren.
Greeting and Apostolic Benedic-
ton: We have recently learned that
preparations were being made al
Washington for observing with due
solemnity the twenty fifth anniversary
of the founding Of the Catholic Uni
Versity. and that the celebration.
graced by your presence and by thai
of distinguished members of the laity,
would be quite in keeping with the
singularlY happy character of the oc-
casion. That you, Beloved Sons and
Venerable Brethren. should above all
rejoice at the prosperity of the uni
versity is obvious to every one who
realizes that the beginnings and the
gratifying progress of this seat IF
wise and timely care. And yet this
joy Of yours is not so peculiar to yol
but that we also may in some wise
share it. For we love, nay. we dearly
cherish the American people forceful
as they are with the yigor of youth
and second to none in efficiency of ac-
ton and thought; and as we earnestly
desire that an ever widening path 10
the highest level of human achieve
men may open before them, so We
cannot but feel the deepest pleasure
at everything that furthers their
progress.
Still in your tireless endeavors
you aimed not merely at enriching the
mind with learning; what you chiefly
sought was TO Undue it with that
heavenly wisdom whose light cannot
be put out and with which all good
things shall come to your f1ocks.
These proofs indeed of your pastoral
solicitude must appeal to every fair
minded observer as worthy of the
highest commentator and deserving
Of the appreciation and support OF
your fellow citizens. especially of your
Catholic people and in particular Of
your clergy.
In this connection we will not
withhold our praise from the Knights
of Columbus who. as You lately in
formed us by their splendid contribu-
ton to the funds of the university
have carried into effect their wisely
conceived design of extending TO
young men less favored by fortune the
advantage of solid and at the same
time Christian education. This
noble example of beneficence, which
all good men approve, we hold up for
imitation and generous emulation to
all who are blessed with means; and
we heartily wish that you yourselves
Beloved Sons and Venerable Brethren.
will advance the cause of the uni
versity by sending to it students

dozen times, the echo throwing the
sounds back and forth, and trans

mad by the fearful noise of the guns
in the rarified atmosphere OF these
high attitudes"

with the largest shot he could fn6

ten feet, infiicting a horrible wound
from the effects of which the wound
