JANUARY 9. 1893, OPPOSED THE POPE'S AGENT | Details of the Conspiracy Against Archbish- op* Satolli and Ireland, VIEWS OF A PROMINENT CHURCHMAN Rev. John Conway's Idea of the Probable Effect of the Alleged Plot Agninst the Prelates Some Scandal May Oceur. St Pavt, Minn, Jan. 8—Archbishop Tre- land would not talk today about the story that he had forwarded charges to the popc that Archbishop Corrigan and others had organized a conspiracy for the overthrow of Mgr. Satolli and himself. He had read the story, but would say nothing about it. How ever, Rev. John Conway, editor of the North western Chroniele, who stands nearest Arch bishop Ireland of all ecclesiastics the northwest, had been unable to ge! way last night on his trip to England in - the interest of the new Hill Catholic college here, and this evening he gave the following statement 1o the Associated press Cause of the Trouble, “The news from Chicago regarding the couspiracy against Archbishops Satolli and Ireland has been received in St. Paul with | much surprise. Many will no doubt be astonished at it. Most people will be except the conspirators themsclves and those who follow ecelesiatical questions very closcly Journalists who ave direetly interested in church matters knew by a journalistic intu- tion that & conspiracy was being hatehed. “The people at large heard rumbling noises, but they never dreamed that such a plot was concocted. The libelous pamphlet wry by archbishop Corrigan’s Italian sceretary, the effusions of Miss Eades, a garrulous old maid who is Roman correspondent of the New York Catholic News: the dispatches purporting to have come from Boston and other cities outside of New York, yet all having the same purpose: the plethora of anonymous letters published in the New Yorlk Sun and other papers has hinted elearly the existence of a conspiracy t the representative of the holy fathier., Some Seandal Will Result, The Chicago Post has done great service to Christianity ind the country by unearthing the arch conspirator, Some scandal, as well | as great good will_follow from the revela- tions of the Post, but the clumsy Catalinism of the New York digni is dircetly re- sponsible for the scandal,” while the whole country will be immensely benefited by the wholesome harmony between Catholics and nonCatholicsi which must now be intensified by reason of the kaowledge given to the pub- lic by the Chicago newspaper. “The American people see in this addi- tional confirmation of Pope Leo's friendship and of admiration of American_institutions. This friendship and admiration has been well set forth by the pope's representative, Mer. Satolli. The anonymous writers of the cabalistic burean will probably now cease. They ave reasonably suspected und no honorable newspaper will publish _any more of their turbulent lucubrations. 1 do not see NOw a4 newspaper can continue to publish such’ silly letters, of which the whole country riily sick, without ing itself open to imputations of bribery. Work of Anonymous Writers. Nor am 1 a little surprised that some few newspapers of high standmg, like the New York Sun, should have thrown open their colamns to these anonymous disturb- ers. The New York Sun is the chief offender in the way mentioned and its unprincipled course has made it lose caste among jour ists, and indecd, among ull honorable me There is such a thing as honorable warfare A newspaper uninfiuenced by other consid- crations than those of good journalism would not torture its readers with such letters; a newspaper moved by motives of honor would | atleast iusist upon publishing the numes of the writes T notice that the Sun of January 7 gives an extract from a letter s ved in New York from a high ec stic in Rome and referring to Archbishop olli's wission. One nced not be with any great degree of shrewdness to know that the so-called Roman letter is the | work of the New York bureau. Mer. Sutolli is here for more purposes than the settiement of ecelesiastical ques- tions. He is the representative of Pope Leo at the Columbian exposition. As such the most cordial courtesies were extended to him on his arrival in the United States, America was naturally grateful to the pope | for his practical interest in the Columbian exposition, and her gratitude was naturally deepencd by the holy father's unprecedented act of sending overa vatican exhibit. Now the United States does not mean to allow any one to insult her guests, and this country resents the gratuitous opposition to one who is at present the recipient of her hospi- tulity. 1t is not necessary to speale against an one; itis decidedly “agrecable to be plain spoken against a few individuals who happen to be members of one's own church. 1f th few conspirators do not now keep quiet 1 see nothing left except a choice between locking them up in a lunatic asylum and suppressing them as a public nuisanc “Ihave just seen the Chicago Post. As to the statenient that Archbishop Ireland ha rred chavges in ome, there is no ne- cessity for his doing so, because Rome's rep- reseniative is here in the person of Avch- bishop Satolli.
