New York

NEW YORK, Nov. 1s.-The stock
market was in the throes OF another
violent liquidating movement yester
day, the reaction attaining its full force
IN the final hour, when extreme de-
ciines IN the more vulnerable issues
extended from 10 to over 30 points.
Stringent money conditions, as indi-
Gated by the maintenance Of the 10 per
cent rate for call loans, IN to 8 per
cent. bid for time funds and the utter
collapse OF foreign exchange, with the
london rate at a new discount, con"
.ribated to the further reversal.
Minimum quotations made by a
number Of erstwhile fayorites in yes
erdays session placed some of those
issues materially under lowest prices
touches in the sweeping setback Of last
week and more than cancelled recent
substantial gains made by high-grade
rails.
During the early and intermediate
stages dealings were lighter and more
perfunctory than at any period in
many weeks. The market lapsed
largely into an affair between traders
puhlic participation being wholly neg
ligible.

theology in the Catholic Chuch, and that once
granted the principles, the conclusions follow from
Them They have found that the Catholic is not
altogether unntelligent in matters other than re-
gion; and realize that there must be some sort of
justification for his holding true doctrines which
they cannot see their way to accepting, which in
deed, they have been taught to regard false But
they will very generally admit that he make out
good hypothetical for his attitude and be-

dividing line between the Catholic and the Prot

Religious discussions of this kind will have a
tendency to arouse general interest in religion
and to overcome that deadly inertia and indifference
among the masses that have palled the course of
spiritual progress, and have multifed to amazingly
large NUMBERS the proportion of the population
which processes no attachment to any religion or
church.

REMARKABLE DEATH DEPLETIONS OF
1918 AMONG CATHOLIC PRELATES

During the year 1918 the Church sustained
traordnary losses among the ranks of the hierarchy

precious and valuable lives of those courageous

of duty, without consideration of their personal
comfort or safety.
Among the conspicuous prelates marked by the
king of shadows during year were the following
Rt. Rev. John S. Foley, Bishop of Detroit Mich. );

of Galveston, Tex; Rt. Rev. James McGolrick,

SOME EDITORS HAVE MONKEYED WITH A.
BUZZ-SAW

Supreme Court Justice, Daniel F. Cohalan of New
York has taken vigorous legal measures agaist sew
eral of the newspapers which made vicious attacks
upon his character because of his courageous stand
and Express and the Evening Mail" of New York,
has been settled by check of $5,OOOOO, and an
agreement by the defendant newspapers to publish
an apolgy for their reckless utterances regarding
the Judge. It is stated that Justice Cofalan has
be called upon through legal actions to make rep
araon in damages for their false and reckless state
ments regarding him, arising from their over-reach-
ing superserviceableness to English interests. The
rights and knowing dares maintain" them, and
some more overzealous editors are soon apt to find
that they have been monkeyng with very active
buzz-saw in their extravagant statements concern
ing him.

FIVE UNIONIsT SEATS IN BELFAST
GAINED BY GERRYMANDERIN

Among the other despicable tricks resorted to by
the British government in the recent Irish elections
was that of "Gerrymandering" the city of Belfast,
the Carson stronghold. In this way the Carson
crowd increased its representation from four to nine
members: The "Gerrymandering" or splitting of
election of the candidates of the Unionist party,
constituted free gift of five Parliamentary seats to
the Carson contingent. Thus do the Brtishers
carry into practice the principles of democracy
which the world was drenched with blood to safe
guard.
