FATHER M'GLYNN'S DEFENSE

JIc Writes a Six-Co! uran Article in Reply to Archbishop Corrigan, tn Which He Maintains that His Tiews Are Jfot ODDosed to Sound Theolosry and the Tenets of the Church. New York, Feb. 3 Tne forthcoming iasue of the Standard, Henry George's new paper, will contain the reply of Rev. Dr. McGlynn, the deposed pastor of St Stephen's Church, to the public statement upon the famous controversy made by Archbishop Corrigan, a few days aeo. Dr. McGlynn'a reply fills six columns of the Standard. He begins as follows: Simeoni, to which Archbishop Corrigan refers am sot now able to find, but it is true, as he state, that this letter complained of my landleauue speeches as 'containing propositions openly contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church.' The doctrines thus stigmatized wera thofe I hare held and tanght before and since, namely, that all men are equally entitled to the use of the general bounties of nature, including land, as well as sunlipht, air and water, and that human laws ou;jnt to be so changed as to con form to this dictate of natural justice. I affirm lb,, while acknowledging the right of exclusive ewnersnip in all that is produced by human in flostry, I would, at the same time, compel those .wno enjoy exclusively a lareer or a cnoicer por lion of the bounties of nature to pay to the com ftiumty an equivalent in the war of taxation to the full amount of the rental value. . It is abso lutely false, although stated by Archbishop Corrican, on the authority of Cardinal McCloskey, that I 'recognized my errors and professed to be sorry for them.' On the contrary, in my interview with Cardinal McClosky, 1 reaffirmed the doctrine, md explained it, and defended it from misunder standings and misapprehensions. I told him substantially that I knew my theology well enough not to sin against it ignorantly, and that I loved my relicion too well to sin against it will fully. 1 voluntarily promised to abstain from making land leaene speeches, not because I acknowledged the right of any one to forbid me, but oecause I knew too well the power of my ecclesiatical superiors to impair and almost destroy sny usefulness m the ministry of Christ 3 church, to which I had consecrated my life." Dr. McGlynnthen gives at longth two letters from the Propaganda, one under date of Sept 12, 1882, directing the suspension or disciplining of Dr. McGlynn for Land League speeches; the other under date of May 10, 1883, calling atten tion to the fact that, though McGlynn had modi fled his tone, he was still speaking In favor of "Irish revolution," and one from Vicar-general Quinn to Dr. McGlynn, dated May 21, convey ing a request that he should not attend a certain Land Leacue meeting. This meeting, McGlynn itates, was to ' be addressed by Alexander Sullivan, the newly-elected president Dr. McGlynn asserts that he did not oxpress any intention of attending it, and that Jther priests were similarly warned. In reply to the complaint from Rome of May, 1883, Me Olynn wrote to Cardinal McClosky: "I regret very much that the Cardinal Prefect has found new eanse for displeasure in a report in some uoston journal, lhe meetme must have been held !n this city in February last, which was not a Land Leazue meeting such as I had volunta rily promised you not to attend, but was for the relief of people suffering from famine in Ireland, na was nell by a union of Irish county eocie ties, under the name of the Irish Confederation or America. 1 find in a journal an account of the sending of the money raised at that meeting, with a letter of Buhop Nolty, showing now it was used to relieve distress in Ireland. I Inclose this article, and I beg you to consider it a part of this letter. In speaking for the relief of distress I alluded to the injustice which is the cause of it, and urged the duty of redress Jng such injustice. In this I thought I was but favoring that demand for justice to Ireland which was made by O'Connell and the bishops 4WMSMfn nfl n n ani ViTT tnantf aF sta r t-t especially Arcnbishop Hushes, and which has been, I think, a commonplace in the St Pat rick a cays' sermons. I shall henceforth refuse to take part in any such meeting, even though it le for charitable object" Dr. McGlynn then quotes in his letter, giving reasons for not taking a proffered summer vaca tion in a trip to itome. to present his case in person, saying that it would interrupt plans for reducins his church debt. For reducing his church debt gives the text of his statement of his well-known views of the land question pub lished in the Tablet holding: that he was in ae oord with the fathers of the church whose language he quotes. This brought out a note from ;he Archbishop, as follows: Nrw York, July 2, 18S3. Reverend and Dear Doctor The Cardinal has re eelved a copy of this week's Tablet containing your promised statement. He desires me to ask whether you accept this article as the correct exposition of your views. He also thinks it well to call attention to tbe fact that the passages attributed to St. Ambrose Mid Clement are commonly considered spurious, and ittat cvt. Augustine, in the passage alluded to. is irguintr, ad hominem. that heretics can allege no right enure n property. I am, reverend and dear Doctor, rery traiy yours, in Christ, M. A. CobriqaIT, Coadjutor. "I answered as follows: "New York, July 3, 1883. MMot Reverendand Dear Archbishop: ' "I had sent for a copy of the Tablet, with the listen' riou of sending the promised statement to the Cardiu' tl Archbishop, and had just received it when . I re:eived yonr lotter. I inclose for the Cardinal a slip Trom tne Tablet, containing the statement. 1 am responsible for the article, and I accept it as a correct ixpositkm of my views. I am responsible for making lae quotations from the lathers to illustrate the truth that property, especially land, has its duties as well U its rights. Bat beyond this 1 leave all responsibil ity for the passages (omitting purposely to translate (hem) to the authors themselves and to the Corpus Juris, and to the eminent writers by whom and by whmn the passages rrom ct. Clement and from feu Ambrose are accepted as genuine. I remain, most revered and dear Archbishop, with best wishes, very uncereiy your obedient servant. "Edward McGlyjts, "To the most revered Archbishop Corrigan. ''Before going further. I would state that tmone those who denounced me to Rome for my Land League speeches were Bishop Gilmour, of Cleveland, and Bishop Chatard of Indianapolis, the former the author and the latter tha apolo gist of the famous or tnfamous Cincinnati pastoral letter, which was, in a great measure, a ieliberate thesis against Thomas Jefferson's Declaration of Independence." lie then says: "On the 15th of March of last fear I went, at the request of Archbishop Cor rigan, to Washington, to recommend to Presv lent Cleveland Brigadier-general John Newton, r the engineers, ior promotion to a vacant fflfrjor-generalsbip. On my return I found a ' letter from Archbishop Corrigan, which I here publish: Rev, awl Dear Doctor The Bishop of Brooklyn has sailed to direct attention to the inclosed circular, in rhieh you are announced to speak at a meeting prelided over by Henry Ward Beecher. As the meeting ' to be held in his diocese, the Bishop obets vehemently to a Catholio priest publicly ppearing in such company, inasmuch as is conceives that great dwedifi cation sad seandal will be tha result. At his request I make ais views known to you. and I am forced to say that L too, would feel humiliated to find a priest of the Archdiocese openly associating with a man of snch anhappy reputation as Mr. Beocher, and even Howard Crosby, who only last year insulted us all by laying that our country would rise against Romanises 1ml crush them into dust because we simply asked ;hat our poor children be permitted, according to the Constitution, to worship God with liberty of contcience. I am, Rev. dear Doctor, very truly yours. "M. A. CORBIOAN." tn reply. Dr. McGlynn reports upon the favorable results of his mission in behalf ef General Newton, and adds: "It pained mo to learn' from , fou that you would feel humiliated hy my open associating w,th Mr. Beecher, who wag to preside, and oyec with Dr. Howard Crosby. But . I8 id not forbid me to go, probably doubt- . ng your right to do so, nor even advise me in inch delicate circumstances to break my engagement, and ss yoa marked your letter 'private I would have had to causa a public scandal by weaking so , important an engagement, i Hhntifc haine at liltartv tn civa tVi Jtbout Tha scacUl would have been much

increased by the more or less accurate surmises as to the cause, and no doubt by the speedy

publication of the true cause, which publication, no matter how great micht be my reticence, would probably come about through the indis cretion of friends of Bishop Loughlin himself. I therefore determined to keep my engagement, and all the more readily, as I was confident, both from general principles and from several past experiences of my own in similar matters, that your apprehensions and those of the Bishop of Brooklyn would not be verified. As a matter of fact, myvfesence on that platform drew from both Mr. Beecher and Dr. Crosby strong and eloquent testimonies in favor of the Catholic Church. My joining with these men watt to promote the cause of law in the interest of morality and temperance, and in keeping with the spirit of the council of Baltimore, which was quoted with great approval by Dr. Crosby. I felt that in doing this I surely was not making any compromise with tbe alleged faults in Mr. Beecher's private charac ter, nor with Dr. Crosby's utterances on the freedom-of-worship bill." With refer ence to tne letter of reminder about political speeches sent by the Archbishop on Aug. 21 last, he says: "The only political gathering that I can remember at which I spoke short'y before the date of Archbishop Corrigan's letter of Aug. 21 was the great labor demonstration on July 5, in Cmon square, in favor of Gladstone and Parnell. durine the Darliamentarv elec tion. I confess it did not occur to me that any one would at that late date hold me bound by the voluntary promise I had made three or four years before, since Rome itself had been forced to change its attitude toward the Irish question, and since even Archbishop Corrigan had at last deemed it politic no longer to oppose the movement in aid of the land of his parents. The Archbishop's letter does not 'deprecate in terference in politics in general,' and it does make express mention of Henry George. All this appears clearly from the letter itself, which is as follows: "New York, Aug. 21, 18SG. 'Rev. Dear Doctor: During the retreat I hope you will think over your relations with Henry Ueorge (according to the newspaper reports), and I could feel much easier in conscience if vou would leave aside anything that may be not unto edification in the Catholic priest. I mean anything that would seem even to coincide with socialism. 1 am, dear Doctor, very faithfully yours. M. A. Cobeigan. "Besides the hint given in the above letter of the Archbishop, I received intimations coming from his intimates that there was danger of serious collision between the authorities of the dio cese and myself because of my advocacy of the doctrines of Mr. George." Then follows an account of the interview be tween Henry George and Archbishop Corrigan, which Mr, George considered fruitless, receiving the information that the Archbishop's council was to be summoned that day to suspend McGlynn. Having been forbidden the next day to attend a Henry George meeting, he says of his action: "I felt it to be my duty to disregard this pro hibition, and on the day of the meeting I sent to ths Archbishop a letter which I cannot now nnd, in which I said that as I had made the engage ment before receiving hisjetter, and had been very extensively advertised to speak, my failure to keep the engagement would precipitate a public scandal and be of grave injury to tho cause, and would be in tbe nature of a breach of con tract which I did not feel at liberty to make." His suspension occurred the next day. Then follows the correspondence during the George campaign, most of which was given in the statement of Archbishop Corriean. It includes a note from the Archbishop, inclosing the second command from Cardinal Simeoni for Dr. McGlynn to go to Rome, and a request from the Archbishop to be informed definitely whether Dr. McGlynn intended to obey the summons. In his preliminary answer to the published state ment of the Archbishop, Dr. McGlynn com plained that his answer to this demand was garbled. Dr. McGlynn gives the text of the re ply. In the course of his letter he says he cannot go to Rome on account of impaired health, and adds: "As I cannot go to Rome to give an account of my doctrine about land, I would say that I have made it clear in speeches, in reported interviews and in published articles, and I repeat it here: I have taught and shall continue to teach in speeches and writings as long as live, that land is rightfully the property of tbe people in common, and that private own ership of land is against natural justice, no mat ter oy what civil or ecclesiastical laws it may be sanctioned, and I would brine about instantly. if I could, such change of laws all the world over as would confiscate private property in land, without one penny of compensation to the miscalled owners. In the Archbishop's published state ment he gives only the latter portion of this let ter, beginning with the words 'My doctrine about land.' etc. lhe reader mav well wonder that the Archbishop, while stating that I said I could not go to Rome, suppressed all of tbe rea sons which I gave for my inability to go, and also the reason which I gave for reaffirming my doctrinal position. Dr. McGlvnn concludes as follows: "Re-afSrm-ing what I said in my letter to the Archbishop, sent by the band of air. lienry ueorge, that in becoming a priest I did not evade the duties nor surrender the rights of a man and a citizen, I deny the right of Bishop, Propaganda or I'ope to punish mo lor my actions as a man and a citizen in the late municipal canvass, or in other political movements. I deny their right to censure me, or to punish me for my opinions in political economy, unless they can show that these opinions are clearly contrary to the teachings of the Christian relig ion. This they have not shown, and I know that they cannot show it I have not appealed to Rome from the judgments of the Archbishop and I have no desire to do so. I deny the right of Bishop, Propaganda or Pope to order me to Rome. The 'vow of obedience' of the priest, of which so many absurd things have been said within the last tew weeks, is simply a promise to obey the church authorities in matters con cerning the priest's duties of religion." f The Cattle In the Northwest. Chicago, Febv 3. A special dispatch from St Paul says news has been received at the general offices of the Northern Pacific that does not con firm tbe reports of heavy losses among the cat tle in the mountain ranches. The weather all through the Territory has been very severe for a day or two past, bat the eold wave, the officials say, has not been of sufficient duration to cause the losses reported, lhe cattle, according to the reports received, have wintered well, the fre quent cmnooka saving them from any great loss. The last trustworthy advices received by the company's officials were letters dated the 20th ult They pronounce all cattle through the Ter ritory to be in good condition, and that the cat tle men look forward to no more than an average loss. Doable Murder at Breslan, L. I. Beeslatt, Ij. i., reo. a This village waa thrown into great excitement by the horrible discovery this morning, in a house in the back woods, about a mile and a half from the village, of the dead bodies of a man and woman, Ger mans, whose names have not yet been learned. Tbe house is situated some distance off the main roads. The man's body wa lying in a pool of blood on the floor in a room downstairs with the throat cut from ear to ear. 1 he woman's was found in a bedroom up stairs, with the head sev ered from the bodv. Both had evidently been dead five or six days, as decomposition had al ready set in. It is supposed that they were murdered and robbed. There is no clew to the perpetrators of the deed.

PE0CEEDING8 OF CONGBESS.

Senators Saulsbury and Morgan Air Their Ciyil-Service fieform Views. The House tables the Bill to Provide Every Member and Senator a Clerk The Pleu-ro-Pneumonia Bill Farther Debated. TIIE SENATE. The President Instructed In Ills Duty by Several Southern Senators. Washington, Feb. 3. There were thirty Sen ators present at prayers this morning. The credentials of Senator Whitthorne, showing his election by the Legislature of Tennessee for the unexpired term ending March 4, next, were pre sented, and he took the oath of office under them. Up to this time he has held his seat under the Governor's appointment The credentials of Senator Sawyer, of Wis consin, for the full term, commencing March 4 next, were presented and placed on file. A letter was presented from the Secretary of the "Treasury statins that there was no informa tion in the report as to whether any national banks were lending money to be repaid in gold only. This was in answer to Mr. Van Wyck's resolution. Mr. Evarts introduced a bill for the purchase of John Ericsson s Destroyer, and ten enlarged steel vessels of the same type for defending the harbors of the United States. Appropriating 5112,000 and $2,000,000 for these purposes, respectively. 1 A resolution offered last session by Mr. Ingalls, to discharge the committee on pensions from the further consideration of the bill re moving the limitation on applications for arrears of pension was taken up, and Mr. In galls stated that his object was to have the bill brought be fore the Senate for action. The resolution was agreed to yeas 27, nays 26, as follows. YEAS. Blair, Hale, Hoar, In galls, McMillan, Mahone., Manderson, Miller, Mitchell (Ore.), Palmer, , NAYS. Plumb, Sabin, Sewell, Sherman, Spoon er, Teller. VanWyck, Williams, Wilson (Ia.)Cameron, Cheney, Conger, Cuilom, Dolph. Evarts, Farwell. , Frye, -27. Beck, Gray, Pugh, Saulsbury, Sawyer, Vance, Vest. Walthall, Whitthorne, Berry, Hampton, Butler, Hawley, Call, Jones (Ark.), Cockrell, Kenna, Coke, Merrier son, Eustis, Morgan, iTeorgo, Payne, Wilson (Md.) 26 Ixorman, flatt, Mr. Ingalls stated that as the bill was one of not ask the very great consequence he would Senate to vote on it instanter. He gave notice, however, that early next week he would move that the Senate proceed to its consideration. The bill was placed on the calendar. The resolution heretofore offered, providing that each day, after the morning business, the Senate will proceed to the consideration of House bills on the calendar, was adopted. The resolution heretofore offered by Mr. Plumb, calling on tbe Secretary of the Interior for information as to whether there is any rule of the Pension Office whereby any applicant for a pension is denied a hearing by reason of being also a petitioner to Congress, was taken up and discussed. The discussion turned somewhat on the question of civil-service reform. On that point Mr. Saulsbury said that, while he would not convert President Cleveland into a public butcher, decapitating every office-holder hostile to him, he would instruct him that it was a duty which he owed to himself, his administra tion, the party which elected him and the coun try which he served, to purge the departments of the men hostne to his administration; and, un less he did so, he would not have a successful administration. Mr. Morjran agreed with the Senator from Delaware. He hoped that the President and heads of departments would take warning, and not let themselves and their administration be brought into disgrace by the treachery of sub ordinates. Mr. Plumb expressed bis perfect willingness to have every Republican office-holder removed. Mr. Beck agreed with the benators from Dela ware and Alabama, that It was not wise policy on the part or the administration to Keep its enemies in office. The discussion continued until 2 o'clock. when the resolution was laid aside, without action, and the Senate proceeded to the consid eration of the bill to prohibit members of Con cress from acting as attorneys for subsidized railroad companies. Mr. Evarts addressed the Senate in opposition to the bill. He favored an amendmentproposed to be offered as a substitute to the bill by the Senator from Delaware Mr. Saulsbury. That substitute made it unlawful for any member of Congress to accept employment as general counsel or attorney, or to receive payment for services as such counsel or attornev, from sub sidized railroad companies, with a proviso that it shall not be construed to prevent members of Congress from appearing as such counsel in State or federal courts in suits in which the United States is not a party. He argued that tbe proposed legislation was uncalled for. The rights of citizens were not to be invaded be cause honest employment might lead to crimin ality. Should the apothecarv's shop be sup pressed because poison was dealt out from it? No. The poisoner was punished, but the drug 8 tore was not suppressed. In order to be con sistent, they should pass a law forbidding mem bers of Congress from taking any fee. But no body had thought of proposing anything of that kind, and this bill was not of that nature. Upon the conclusion of Mr. Evarts's speech the Senate went into executiue sessieo. The House amendments to the Senate bill for a public building at uwensboro, ivy., were agreed to. The doors were reopened and the Senate adjourned. THE HOUSE. Tbe BUI to Provide Clerks for Members Not Chairmen of Committees Tabled. Washington, Feb. 3. The Speaker laid hefore the House a message from the Senate, transmitting a duplicate engrossed copy of the Northern Pacific land-grant-forfeiturebilL On motion of Sir. Laffoon, of Kentucky, a Senate bill was passed appropriating $50,000 for the erection of a public building at Owensboro, Ky. Air. iioiman, or Indiana, rrom tbe committee on appropriations, reported the legislative, ex ecutive and judicial appropriation bills. Re ferred to the committee of the whole. Mr. Tucker, of Virginia, from the committee on the judiciary, reported back the Senate bill extending the time for the filing of French spoliation claims. Placed on the calendar. Mr. Rogers, of Arkansas, from the same com mittee, reported adversely a bill to enable the people to name their postmasters. Laid on the table. In the morning hour Mr. Oates, of Alabama, nn behalf of the committee on revision of the laws, called up the bill authorizing the appoint ment and prescribing tne compensation of clerks to Senators and Representatives who are not chairmen of committees. Mr. Caldwell, of Tennessee, saw in the propo sition disaster to members and the grave of the Democratic party. If there was anv veto thun der left in the President he would burr this bill under a trip-hammer veto rather than bury him self and his party by signing it. Mr. White, of Pennsylvania, advocated the bill. Mr. "Warner, of Ohio, opposed it. U thought some way should be devised oy which members could get rid of these private duties. They had become employment agents, claim agents, pen sion agents patent agents, and the clerks would simply become claim agent attachments. If this bill should pass, members should attach to their names the letters "M. C. and C. A. Member of Congress and Claim Agent;" and Congress "would become little more than an annex to the departments. Mr, Kelley, of Pennsylvania, spoke from twen ty-six years experience in favor of the buL Mr. Holman, of Indiana, opposed the measure. Mr. Curtin. of Pennsylvania, supported it. Mr. Eden, of Illinois, moved to lay the bill on tbe table. Aereed to yeas 11. nays 105.

The House then went into committee of tbe

whole (Mr. Blount, of Georgia, in the chair) on

tne pieuro-pneumonia bill, tbe pending amend ment beine one offered bv Mr. Cntcheon. of Michigan, providing that the" experts and agents to oe appointed in pursuance of this act shall be appointed under civil-service rules. Lost 13 to 86. Mr. Swinburne, of New York, offered an amendment striking out the provision for the destruction of the diseased animals, and insert ing in lieu thereof a provision that such animals shall be quarantined and destroyed if deemed necessary after a scientific investigation by the scientific experts; and the experts shall provide such rules and regulations as they deem necesBary to best prevent the spreading of the disease and promote a thorough investigation and understanding of its nature, chavacteristics and consciences. Aereed to 97 to 7a Mr. Butterworth. of Ohio, offered an amend ment reducing from three-quarters to one-half of the value of the animal when sound the compensation which may be allowed owners of cattle for animals slaughtered under the provisions of this act Agreed to 110 to 36. Without concluding the consideration of the bill, tbe committee arose and the House ad journed. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES. A. Sauerman & Co., dry goods dealers, of Cin cmnati, have assigned.

A track-repairer named Parker, on the Hanni bal & St Joseph railroad, was killod last October by a freight train which was racing with a Wabash train on parallel tracks. The wife of the deceased sued for damages in the Circuit Court at Kansas City.
