WHAT CIVIL-SERVICE COMMISSIONER EDGERTON SAYS. Civil-Service Commissioner Edgerton, who has spent a good deal of time of late in Indiana, said toa Sra reporter in the course of a conversation to-day: “Oh, yes, there’s a good deal of speculation in Indiana as to who will be our next President, and some difference of opinion, even among democrats, as to who ought to be. Some democrats who have failed to get office think President Cleveland ought tobe turned out, while democrats who have got OMe, oF expect to get offlee, Unink he ought to be cept in.” “ffs thie democentic opposition to the Prestdent in the State diminishing?” inquired the reporter. “Yes it is,” was the reply. “Many who were led off by newspaper clamor have fallen into line in su port of the President. Some of our democratic papers have been very injudicious,to say the least, and needlessly aroused in some minds feeling against the President. I am satisfied from my own observation and’ from intercourse with the leading democrats that the great mass of the party of Indiana indorses and supports the President, and will give him their support for renomination and re-election, Indiana 1s somewhat pecullarly situated, or rather the democratic partys. It has no distinctive leader. The party 1s divided into factions, each faction having its leader, and frequently the interests or aims ‘of those leaders conilict. “Now, there will be a big contest over Voorhees’ seat'in the Senate. Gov. Grey 1s under- stood to be a candidate, and though it would seem that Voorhees ought to’ be re-elected without op- position there 1s Ho telling how 1t may end.

While the District officers were located on 43g street some of them were accustomed to work ‘upon the “go as you please” plan, and, as Commis: sioner Wheatley says, many have seen it to abuse the privileges allowed them by their indulgent chiefs, A great cause of complaint was the chronic Allness of some of the clerks, who found an ever available excuse for thelr absence in the unsani- tary condition of the old quarters. ‘The new rules in this respect provide that in case of absence, due to illness, the absentee must submit a statement of the facts, accompanied by the endorsement of a reputable physician, stating that 1t incapacitates him from doing duty.

Dr. Edward McGlynn, late rector of St. ‘Stephen's church, in this city, that he had already rendered himself Hable to ecclestastical censure by disobeyii ‘the positive command of the gov- ereign pontiff, given January 17. Wishing, how- ever, to deal leniently With him, the sacred con; gation refrained from inflicting censure, and, offer- Ing him a further opportunity to be beard in his own behalf, gave him a final and peremptory order to present himself in Rome within forty days from the receipt of the letter containing such order, under pain of excommunication to be incurred ipse facto et _nominatim. This letter was duly delivered to Rev. Dr. McGlynn, and, ashe allowed the days of grace to pass un: heeded, 1t became our sad duty to notify him that he had’incurred by bis own act this penalty of ex. communication by name, whereby he is cut off from the communion of the Church, from its sacra- ments and participation 1n its prayers, and, should ‘he persevere in his contumacy, deprived of the right after death to Christian burial. It has be- come also our duty to declare to the clergy and laity of our charge, Which we do by these letter that Rev. Dr. Edward McGlynn is excommunicate nominatim, with ail the penalties attached to this censure by the canons of the Church.” No formal announcement of the excommunica- tion was made yesterday in tne New York Cathe- dral nor in any of the principal Catholic churches. No instructions were issued to pastors concerning the matter, each pastor being left to exercise nis own judgment in reading or not reading the arch- Dishop’s letter from his pulpit. The policy of silence seems to have been tacitly agreed upon by e clergy. ‘The anti-poverty meeting last night was the largest yet held, many persons ‘ing drawn thither, no doubt, in view of the recent excom- munication of Dr. McGlynn.

I reassert that 1 Know @ German-American bishop, an intimate friend of Cardinal Gibbons, who said that the Ko- man authorities wanted to have a nuncio at the court of King Grover the Firat.” Here the doctor stated that the reference to King Grover was only A joke “It isa" and an inconceivable one— ‘vbe idea of having a nuncio at Washingtop—but entirely in Keeping with the doings of those Who conceived the idea of sending two Italian prelates to Catholic Ireland. — It was with a thorough knowledge of the matter Thad in hand that I said an Itaitan nuncio would be a source of corruption and slavery to the Cath- Me Church in America, also said to an eminent Cathollc lawyer that, with my knowledge of Rome, [thought 1t better to show one’s teeth than toeat humble ple when endeavoring to get favors from it, As long 2s Catholic people con- Unue to let the pope do as he pleases 1n politics as Well as in religion, allowing cardinals to be elected to the assembites, and daring to forbid an American priest from "making any political Speeches or attending any political meeting in future without the permission cf the propaganda, which thinks that Florida 1s a suburb of New York and Mobile a street in San Francisco— so long as such 1s allowed, so long will the Irish, “German and American poor’ be sold out for any price that Rome can get in re- turn. ‘This circumstance ts largely auginented by the hope that at some early date the papal see will recover Its temporal power,the power Which isdead as Julius Cesar. To-day they are selling the unfor- tunate Iris, Germans and Poles in order to secure the diplomatic ald of England, Bismarck and the czar in the reacquiring of the temporal power of the pope. ‘The papacy 1s a machine, with nothing but cupidity and lust for money and power, and it 4s the knowledge of the condition of things that has ruined all Catholic countries and plunged them into atheism. Tadmit that this 1s hardly the kind of sermon that I would have preached from the pulpit of St. Stephen's, It would have been my first and lastor that kind.
