The people at large heard rumbling noises, but they never dreamed such a plot was concocted. The libelous pamphlet, written by Archbishop Corri-gan's Italian secretary: the effasions 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 anonj'inous letters published in the New York Sun and other papers, pointed clearly to the existence of a conspiracy against the representatives of the holy father.

Nothing I could say would be calculated to lend any special interest to this occasion. My part in this programme is simple, and easily performed. Pope was the teller in the bank, and was one of the best known young men in the city. He was a teacher in a Sunday school, and while pretending to be very pious he really led a dual existence. After his work was over he gambled, drank and spent his money lavishly with lewd women.

On a Saturday night Pope and a companion drove to the bank in a carriage, entering with a key, which he always carried, and took $70,000 from the safe and left. This was the last heard of him. The loss to the bank was not discovered until the next Monday afternoon about 2 o'clock. At first a reward of SI, 000 and 10 per cent, of the money found on him was offered, but it was afterwards increased to $3,000 and 10 per cent, of the money recovered.

The party then proceeded to the house chamber, where Chief Justice Black delivered the oath of office to the newly elected state officials.

In his inaugural address, Governor Stone created a sensation by alluding to the bitter and intolerable warfare that was made on him during the campaign by the American Protective association, on account of his Catholic belief.
