Francesco Satolli, Delegate Apostolic, for insults supposed lohave been offered by a Catholic editor of New York in the course of a public revievr tif his Grace's official acts.

In proof of these supposed insults you have sent me extracts from the Catholic Herald and a New York secular newspaper. I feel that I am bound in Courtesy to acknowledge the reception of these articles, and, not deeming it proper to unite with you in this self-imposed anti unnecessary, but otherwise beautiful act of fealty. I desire to acquaint you with my reason for so thinking. 'I object to part of the personnel of Which you have thought advisable to compose your committee. Some of them I know well by-repute.

and others by personal knowledge. to have always been members of that class known as 'chronic kickers' against ecclesiastical authority. I recognize certain names in the circular which- you have so kindly sent me to be those of men who suffered disabilities, and justly, in the past for disloyalty to authority. Some have been prominently identified 'with an ecclesiastical scandal the stench of which still reeks foul in the nostrils of every- rood Catholic in the archdiocese of New York. Others, by promotina strife and discord in the Church, have hoisted themselves into a temporary and factitious prominence.

There is no room for protest, for the time for protesting is gone by. Why did you not resolve yourselves into a protesting committee when the anti-poverty prodigal was rioting in New York. when he jeered and sneered at the venerable head of the Church, of whose dignity you now assume to be so jealous? Where was your protest then? Why do you now strain at a gnat after swallowing such a dose of camel?

Green on the Briggs Case. Special Dispatch to the Globe-Democrat. ATLANTA, January Dr. Will-lam Henry Green. one of the most famous of the men who make up the faculty of the Princeton Theological Seminary.

is in the city. Dr. Green was Moderator of the Presbyterian General Assembly in Detroit. in May, President during the initial discussions of the since famous Briggs case. Dr.

Green says he does not know the form in which the result of the recent votes in the New York Presbytery will be cast, and, therefore, it is impossible to form anything more than a passing opinion of the future direction the matter will take. He feels sure there will be an appeal to the General Assembly. He is frankly of the opinion that some of thoge who voted with Dr. Briggs do mit fully indorse all of his positions, but they were opposed to putting him under a ban of condemnation for holding to his views. It is rather an evidence of the growth of sentiment towards tolerance in the Church for views honestly held and not subversive of Scripture and essential doctrine.

In fact, it was more a verdict in favor of the liberty of investigation than of approval of results claimed to have been obtained thereby. Instead of the effect being to produce division in the Church, it will rather strengthen the historic and spiritual faith of the communion. but will differentiate more minutely the question which relates to substance and doctrine and system of doctrine. ane Seminary Statistics.

Eastern Manufacturers Complain of the World's Fair Directory. Special Dispatch to the Globe-Democrat. NEW YORL. Januar" 6.The evidence that the officials of the Ctdcago Worlds Fair are Ignoring intenclIng exhibitors from New York and the East generally, is so strong that it is surprising that it has not been made public before. The GLOBE-DEMOCRAT reporter had to make -but a few inquiries to be overwhelmed with testimony, and to-day mtich new matter came to light.

Many who speak do so because they are Anxious to have the fair a success and they see that the present policy' of the officials tends to injure it. Many of the complaining business men have customers in Chicsgo and express their feelings at the risk of injuring their sales. A member of the firm of James McCreery Co. said to-day that they had intended to make a very elaborate exhibit of goods manufactured by them in this country and abroad. It was reported in the tracte that the firm had determined to spend $50,000 in its exhibit.

but Mr. McCreery would not ilx any definite figure. Ile said the firm had caused plane to be drawn, but the delay I in securing space had compelled them to abandon their purpose. It would take them seven-or eight months to make the goods they wished to exhibit. and 'of course, anybody can buy a few yards of silk and ex-bit them," be added, "but when it comes to making specialties, that is a different thing." 1 1 The subjoined letter from Director General Davis indicates the spirit which prompts the Fair officials.

The letter is in answer to one written to Mr. Davis by the Pennsylvania World's Fair Commissioner, who had learned that the Eastern glass manufacturers had been frozen out. The letter is as CHICA0o. April 22; 1892.Hon. A.

Par- 'Inbar, Executive Commissioner, Harrisburg, DEAR Sia--In reply to your letter of Aprili 15. With regard to the Libbey Glass of Toledo, I have to inform you that that company has secured the exclusive concession to make and sell tine cut glass at tthe grounds of the Columbian Exposition. Libhey Glaaa Company has also on file an application to exhibit its wares in the Department of Manufactures. concessions such HS that granted to the 'Abbey Glass Company are procured by negotiation with the management on terms agreed upon between the contracting parties. There is no rule requiring that such concessions should be granted to, the largest or oldest established house.

Agreements. are made with the house who offer the terms re-1 garded as most favorable. Very respectfully GEOREIR Ft- 'DAVIS, Director. According to this official statement the Fair officials do not care to have the finest exhibits, but grant privileges to those who will pay the most for them. In consequence, practically none of the big glass manufacturers of the country will be represented at I the Fair.

The Toledo concern mentioned in Mr. Davit' letter is the only one manufacturing cut glass west of Pittsburg. Many glassmen said that although the Fair officials alleged lastJuly that they had many more applications than they could grant they had continued soliciting applications up to i Novenas ben.

The Grepd Jury Also handed up a batch of indictments against members of the Board of Supervisors. It Is said that are about twenty indictments in alL Judge Moore, sitting in the Court of Sessions, refused to divulge any of the names of the men indicted.

Says tue indictment: 'Under the color of a pretended right the money for said celebration was taken from the contingent fund. All expenditures of the; County of Kings for the Board of Supervisors on said Columbian celebration were illegal. Bills entirely out of proportions to goods furnished or services rendered have been paid. Prominent among them are the bills for the reviewing stand on the Plaza. for which it apl pears from the evidence the City of Brooklyn has paid $11,400 for stands costing about $3 Kings County has pald-00007 for stands costing about $1500."

If the Colonel doesn't 'get there, it can no longer be said that a street-car mule with the toothache in both jaws is a symbol of the way to power in this world's affairs. IN refusing to accept an amendment confining the operation of the anti-option bill to transactions in which there is to be no delivery, Senator Washburn tacitly admits that the object of the measure is to suppress regular as well as irregular tradlng; and that is certainly a conclusive reason why it should not be passed.

Gov. FIFER recommends the repeal of the present Illinois school lawf and the enactment of a new one preserving the compulsory theory, but permitting parents to send their children to private instead of public schools if they so prefer- The peopie are in favor of such, a solution of the -question, and it remains to be seen it the Democratic Legislature and Governor will do that much for the cause of Popular edu cation. THE story that Clarkson, of Iowa, 1 and a of his associates sold out Harrison in the West is too foolish to merit much attention. Clarkson did no good to the party; indeed, by his position as one of its recognized leaders and campaign managers, he probably4did the party some harm, but nobody really believes that he actually conspired against it. Fate had done the business for the Republicans for 1892 long before the Minneapolis Convention met.

'Harrison would have been overwhelmingly beaten even if Clarkson were not identiaed with the party in any way, or if he had gone over to the Democracy. The same thing would have happened if Blaine or McKinley had been the candidate. THE practically unanimous vote by which the House Of, Representatives at Jefferson yesterday indorsed Gov. Francis for a place in Mr. Cleveland's Cabinet was hanasome and well-deserved compliment to an able and worthy man.

That there should have been but four dissentients out of 129 voters is quite remarkable when the fact is borne In mind that Gov. Francis has for four years been in a position which Is usually quite- as productive of estrangements as ot friendships, and in which there is often no way of pleasing all expect by conceding to, all, which is generally impossible. The sentiment of this State, without respect to party, is highly favorable to Francis, and the good wishes, of all whose good wishes are worth having 'will go with him wherever his lines may be cast in the future. A Chance for the Mormons. President Harrison's proclamation of amnesty and pardon for all persons liable tod the penalties of the anti-po.

lygamy wilo have abstained from that evil practice since November 1, 1890, will be generally approved by the people. It carries with it the express condition that such persons shall hereafter faithfully Obey the law, and that is the point of principal importance. There is no desire that the Mormons shall be persecuted on account of their past sins in that relation, provided they will abandon the -system of marriage that is so obnoxious to the moral sense of the country, awl 'accept the ideasof necessity and propriety that in all civilized nations with regard to 'the most sacred institutiest of society. They are only asked to live up to the laws that are intended to conserve and promote the best interests of all classes and conditions of men and women. The record of guilt that stands against them will be 1 freely condoned if they will only turn over a new leaf and do better the future.

They claim to have made up their minds to that course; and this Proclamation is for their encouragement In the work of proving the sincerity of their professions. The offer of complete 4 pardon for offenses heretofore committed Is certainly a strong' inducement for good behavior in the future; and it is to be hoped that the result will be such as to justify the expectations upon, which the President evidbUtly bases his proposition. It will not do, however, to take it for granted that this is going to put an end to polygamy in Utah. There is reason to believe that' many of those who pretend to have given it up are really practicing it in a secret way as much as ever. The Governor of the Territory declares that such is the case, andhis testimony is confirmed that of other reputable and trustworthy witnesses; It is awell-known fact that the average Mormon does not scruple to perjure himself in anything pertaining to the doctrines and interests of his Church; and it is necessary, take his statements with considerable allowance for possible duplicity.

The experience of the officers of the Government in the enforcement of its laws in Utah has shown that the Mormon leaders are capable of resorting to any kind of trickery for the purpose of 'gaining an and that is anothergood reason for not placing absolute confidence in the reports that polygamy has been renounced as a feature of their religion' The experiment of the proclamation of amnesty is lab right' in its way, but it is Only an experiment, without any definite assurance that it will turn out to be a success. If the Mormons are in earnest about their alleged intention to obey the law and desist from a form of wickedness that can not be defended or excused, aiey have the opportunity to thus escape the punishment that would otherwise be visited upon them for past transgressions; and it remains to be seen if they have finally reached a point of repentance and reform which is really likely to make honest and decent citizens of i.
