Brumbach of the Army. The friends of First Lient. V. G. Brambach, third infautry, are very much concerned over his mysterious disappearance. While on duty ever, intervened and prevented its being ac- cepted until a medical survey could be ordered to determine hig mental condition. Last week he was placed in Arizona to Both officers registered at ‘he oficer in whose charge Lieut placed reported to e depart- carried out his orders in ac- man tothe city. Lieut. Brum- insisted that he did not wish to be Elizabeth's like a prisoner. He ee — at the 0 0. fectly males cen it for bis bean ry Bie perety cious. Wt Friday, Dut hasn’t reached there yet, and noth- ing is Known of his movements. NO UNEASINESS FELT. No apprebension fr the safety of Liout. Haas ee eet : Ai us Williams, “he is perfectly capable of taking care of himself and no one to see and converse with him would for a moment suspect any- thing wrong with his mind.” Ho was seen last in Washington Saturday at the Baltimore and Ohio de;ot, and is there- fore supposed to have gone either to New York or more probably to some point in the west. He is weil supplied with money snd could travel come distance without being compelled toask for financial assistance. His trouble 1s not dementia, but 1s merely a monomania to be alone. He spent some time at the War Department on Friday last and talked most rationally about bis case. It was im- ressed on him that his being onered from post to Washington was intended only as a kindness instead of being in the line of per- secution, as he thought at first. Ho asked for his orders and was told that he was to report to Dr. Godding for observation. He took the papers and said he would comply with the orders. Lieut. Leyden, the otticer who accompanied him to Washington, reported that he had acted most sensibly on the route, and he thought there was no doubt that ho could be depended on to do what he promised. THE ESCORT DROPPED ovT. ‘The officials of the department were equally deceived by him and agreed with Lieut. Leyden that there was no necessity for his going to the hospital with him. When the two officers sepa- rated at the hotel Friday Mr. Brambach paid his bill and set out ostensibly for the hospital, but in reality for some other place known only to himseif. Tt is thought he will tura up all right in a few days. No special search will be made for him by the War Department as there seems to be no doubt as to his ability to take care of him- self and avoid endangering his lite or health, SSS ‘WAS IT A MISTAKE? Mr. Eckels Said to Have Been Nominated to the Wrong Office. ‘There is considerable talk in the Treasury Department regarding the nomination made yesterday of James H. Eckels of Illinois to be controlier of currency. It was thought that the appointment of Mr. Eckels to this office may have been an inadvertence. Section $25 of tho Revised Statutes says: “The controlier of currency shell be appointed by the President on the recommendation of the Secretary of the Treasury.” Secretary Carlisle, it is said, did not mal the recommendation, never knew of Mr. Eckeis and was not ac- qnainted with the fact ihat the nomination was to be made untii a few minutes before it went to the Senate. The statement is made that it was the inten- tion of the President to name Mr. Eckels as ‘No. 1762-400 patrs, dado and frieze, fringed top | eecond controller of the treasury, but in making and bottom, seven body colorings, three yards long. —82.95 pair, Actual value #3.75.— ‘No. 1766-250 patrs plain, fringyd top and bottom, | seven colorings. three yards long. 82.95 pair.

Anofficialof the State Department, whoknows what is going on there, enid toa Star reporter today that the investigation of the capability and proficiency of the bureau officers and em- ployes generally, instituted by Secretary Gre- sham, involved no reffection whatever on his predeceseor for the good reason that Mr. Foster really instigatedit, Hehad a long talk with Sccretary Gresham just before his departure for Paris and told him many things about tho officers of the department. They are intimate friends of long standing, having been neighbors in Indiana many years agoand having main- tained a constant friendship ever since. Mr, Foster's ndmivistration of the depart- ment was only of short duration, but was one of the busiest in its history.

Arrival of the Awditor and Secretary of the Papal Delegation. MONSIGNOR DONATO SEARETTI AXD PR WECTOR PAPI WILL MAKE THEIR HOME IN THIS cITY— SOMETHING OF THEIR DUTIES—THE XEW MALL OF PHILOSOPHY AND ITS PROBABLE FACULTY. ‘The papal delegation to this country, of which Monsignor Satolli is the bead. received an addition last evening when Monsignor Do- nato Sbaretti, the auditor of the delegation, and Dr. Hector Papi, the secretary, arrived in this city. They landed in New York Monday evening from the Cunarder Servia and left there for Washington yesterday afternoon. Monsignor Sbaretti is a man of about forty- five years of age and isan Italian by birth and education. He isa highly polished man and stands high at the Vatican. He comes to the Position to which Dr. [Rooker was first appointed. Dr. Rocker, it will be re- membered, was recalled when on the point of leaving Rome for this city, and the Teason for the change has never been made public. Upon their arrival in this city last evening the two new members of the dele- gation proceeded at once to the Catholic Uni- versity, where they will make their home for|the duties of the office. the present. Mgr. Satolli is now in Boston, a Sran reporter who called at the university today was informed that he is expected to re- turn tomorrow evening. THEIR HOME IN THIS CITY. Dr. Garrigan of the university faculty said this morning that it would be unwise as well as indelicate to discuss the reasons that had led to ‘MOR. SBARETTIL the change in the personnel of the delegation, inasmuch as it would be mere idle surmise, as there is no one in this country who can more than guess at the motives that led the pope to make the substitution. There is one thing certain, however, and that ia that the delegation will continue to make its home in this city. For the present they will occupy apartments at the University, but there is a movement on foot among the Catholics in all parts of the country to raise a fund for the purpose of putting up a handsome building as the permanent home of Mgr. Batol and bis asso- ciates. The site of the proposed dwelling has not yet been fixed upon and the choice will rest with the papal ablegate, who has not yet made his decision. If he desires it to be on the grounds of the Catholic University the trustees of that institation will be giad to give the ground for that purpose. but it is mote thaa probable that Mgr. Satolli will prefer to be within the city as it is thought he might find the university rather inconvenient for himeelf and his visitors, Bishop Perrine of Buffato is the treasurer of the fund that is being raised for the dwelling, and it is understood that contributions have been coming in in a most satisfactory manner, although no statement has yet been made pub- lic, THE NEW SECRETARY. Father Papi, the secretary of the delegation, is probably about ten years younger than the auditor. He does not hold as important « po- sition as Mgr. Sbaretti, who, as auditor, will take all the testimony in the cases heard by Mgr. Satolli, In his custody are important pa- pers brovzht from the Vatican, which thought contain references to future ecclesiasti cal appointments in this cow The auditor of the ec Monsignor Satolli arrived in tical court of ew York Mon- | day on the Cunard steamer Servia and became the guest of Archbishop Corrigan, The new official is acomparatively young man. He was at one time cierk of American affairs for the propaganda, Monsignor Sbaretti was transterred a sbort time ago to the propa- ganda clerkship for Chinese affairs, which ofice he held until he was appointed auditor. For years Monsignor Sbaretti bas been known asa friend aud admirer of Archbishop Corri- gan. ‘The most friendiy relations existbetween Monday the archbishop sent his private secretary, the Kev.

He will also send reports of the decisions and actions of the ecclesiastical court to the propaganda, The Catholic University is rather a quiet place just now, for it is the time of the Easter recess and most of the students and a number of the members of the faculty are out of the ‘The recess will terminate next Tuesday don the following day the annual mceting of the directors of the university will be beld. In addition to the routine business there are a number of important matters to come up for consideration and action. THE HALL OF PHILOSOPRY. The new hall of philosophy which is being erected for the university is rapidly approaching completion, and work is being pushed along steadily. It is partly under roof now, and the remainder of the roof will be on in a few weeks. Matters in connection with the comple! is building will come up for consider the meeting of the directors, What important even than this is that the time has about com the faculty for the new de- partment of the university must be decided upon, The details as to the course of instruc- tion have been by no meaus completed yet, but consist of about eight or ten me these pinces five have been practi |flled already. ‘The departments of theology and philosophy are to have separate faculties, although they will, of course, be closely and intimately connected. Four of the professors who are now connected with the university and have been for some time will be transferred to the new department as soon as the proper time arrives. ‘Their branches of instruction do not proverly lie in tho deparimeyy of theology.
