SATOLLI IS SUSTAINED.

Placed at the Head of tlie American Apostolic Delegation. The Pope has decided to establish a permanent apostolic delegation in the United States, and has nominated Mgr. Satolli to be the first delegate. This decision the Vatican considers to be a sufficient reply to the opposition to Mgr. Satolli and his mission. The Propaganda will send from Rome by the Rev. F. Z. Rooker the documents authenticating the new powers conferred upon Mgr. Satolli as permanent delegate. Archbishop Ireland said: “I am heartily glad that this action has been taken The establishment of a delegation here will have a most beneficent result on the* church in America. It will maintain peace and harmony and facilitate the settlement of the controversies among Catholics which heretofore had to be referred to Rome. It practically organizes in perfect form the Catholic Church in America, instituting, as it were, for more important church affairs, home rule. We will have at home a branch of the Supreme Ecclesiastical Court. A turther result will be that the immediate working and thoughts of the Holy See will be brought more prominently before the American people.”
