BlSHlll’ KENS t‘lTlllllS

He Is Asked to Resign the Electorate
cf the Catholic lfi'Iiv'ersity.

Acriou TAKEN BY THE POPE

The Ponti‘fi’s Request Is Couched In Kind-
, 1y Terms and Is Made Because He
\Vants to Change Rector-s
Every Three Years.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.——Word comes from
Baltimore that the Right Rev. John .T.
Keane, titular bishop of Ajasso, rector of
the Catholic unitersity, has received a let-
ter from Pope Leo XIII requesting his res-
ignation as the head of that institution.
The letter, it is said, was addressed to
Cardinal Gibbons and was delivered by
him to Bishop Keane, who went to Balti-
more a few days ago to receive the com-
munication. The wording of the letter is
reported to be kindly, and Bishop Keane's
resignation is asked on the ground that it
has been decided to limit the terms of all
the rectors of the papal universities to
three years only.

The moving cause for the change is be-
ing surmised about with but little satis-
factory result. It is understood here that
despite Bishop Keane’s general popularity
he ~~has been for some time persona non
grata to a certain class of Catholics, in-
cluding some of the most powerful mem—
bers of the heirarchy, notably Cardinal
Satolli.

Bishop Keane acted in the capacity of
host toward Cardinal Satolli from the
time the latter arrived in this country as
papal delegate until he was provided with
a residence. The Catholic university was
the headquarters of the cardinal during
the most active period of ’his administra-
tion, and Bishop Keane acted as the
mouthpiece of the papal delegate in his
intercourse with the lay American world,
notably newspaper men. The cause of
the strained relations, if they exist, is ut-
terly unknown outside the two prelates
themselves.

Bishop Keane, it is expected, will be
promoted to an archbishopric, with the
choice of either receiving a see in this
country or going to Rome to become a
member of one of the Roman congrega-
tions. ,

Spalding lilay Get It.

Cardinal Gibbons is expected to ar-
rive at the university today. Bishop
Keane will probably leave the university
in a few days, and in that event Cardinal
Gibbons will be in charge. The ceremony
of receivingthe professions of faith from
the professors, which occurs each year,
will then be'presided over by the cardinal.

The meeting of the board of directors of
the Catholic university will occur Oct. 21.
The subject of the rectorship will receive
due attention at this meeting, and it is
possible that the candidate recommended
by the board will receive the appointment.
Bishop .Spalding of Peoria, 1115., is al-
ready prominently mentioned for the
place. Bishop Spalding is the cousin of
the Misses Caldwell and administrator of
their vast estate. He is now in Europe
attending to the affairs of the lately wid-
owed Baroness von Gednitz, formerly Miss
Caldwell. It was mainly through Bishop
Spalding’s efforts that $350,000 from the
Caldwell estate was given to found the
new university. It was generally believed
that the Illinois bishop would be appoint-
ed first rector of the Catholic seat of learn-
ing, and he evidently shared this belief,
as his relations with the university au-
thorities have, it is said, not been as cor-
dial since Bishop Keane received the honor.

Another name mentioned is that of
Bishop Horstmann of Cleveland. He is
now secretary of the board of directors.

Universally Popular.

The reasons which led to Bishop Keane’s
removal are of the most complex character
and are as yet mainly speculative. Few
men in Washington and no clergyman is

more popular than the rector of the Oath--

olic university. He is an unusually elo-
quent speaker, and his services were con-
stantly in demand and always graciously
bestowed. His administration of the of-
fairs of his institution has been most suc-
cessful. At the dedication of the Me-
Mahon Hall of Philosophy last fall Cardi-
nal Gibbons publicly praised him in the
most exalted terms and said that what—
ever success had as yet attended the Cath-
olic university was entirely owing to the
efforts Of the accomplished and energetic
rector. '

Bishop Keane enjoys the unique dis-
tinction of being the first president of a
Catholic colic-go ever invited to lecture in
Harvard. As a temperance advocate Bish-
op Keane has an international reputation.

The bi‘shop was for some years the as-
sistant pastor of St. Patrick’s church in
this city. He was afterward promoted to
the see of Richmond. He resigned this
position after ten years of successful epis-
copate to accept the rectorship of the
Catholic university. Bishop Keane is a
native of Ireland, but came to this coun-
try when quite young. He is in his fifty-
seventh year and is a man of dignified and
gracious bearing.

Florida’s Homeless.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct. 5.--No. im-
portant additions to the list of deaths in
Florida from the hurricane are reported.
The belt of country that was devastated
extended from Cedar Keys on the gulf oi
Mexico to the St. Mary’s river and is
about 115 miles long. On a large part of
this many of the people are almost starved
and are shelterless. Measures have been
taken in various places to organize relic.
committees, and appeals for aid will be
sent out to the people of the United States.

tingen, Leipsic, Heidelberg and Marburg

YAUETIEG- AFFAIRS.

The Kaiser to Reopen the Meteor-Isolde
Case—Tile Newnes Challenge.

LONDON, Oct. 5. —-Emperor William of
Germany, your correspondent is informed
upon excellent authority, will shortly raise
the whole question of the collision be-
tween his yacht Meteor and the late Baron
von Zedwitz’s yacht Isolde, which resulted
in the baron’s death. His majesty is not
satisfied with the proceedings at the in»
quest over the remains of Baron von Zed-
witz and the blame thrown upon the Me-
teor. - '

It is stated in yachting circles that the
real reason which caused the Royal Lon-
don Yacht club’to refuse to send the chal-
lenge of Sir George Newnes for the Ameri-_
ca’s cup was that he is not regarded as a
representative yachtsman, combined with
the feeling that he, being the proprietor of
several periodicals, might use the race to
advertise his business.

Lieutenant Colonel Sir George Archi-
bald Leach, K. C. B., senior member of
the Yacht Racing association council, who
was present at the inspection of Howard
Gould’s yacht Niagara, says: “Mr. Gould’s
letter is absurd. It really raises a tempest
in a butterboat. At the next meeting of
the council we will send Mr. Gould a
courteous letter deeply regretting the inci-
dent which has given rise to so much feel-
ing and sincerely deploring the friction
caused by these international contests. As
for the remar '8 about cads, etc, they are
simply scu ous. We can afford to ignore
discussion of this character. ”

THE ECLIPSE EXPEDITION.

Professor Todd and His Party Back From
Their Trip to Japan.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 5.—Mr. Arthur
James’magnlficent yacht Corona and the
party of scientists she carried to Japan to
observe the August eclipse of the sun have
returned. The Corona made a smooth
passage from Yokohama, being held back
by calms and head winds.

The clouds interfered with the plans
of Professor David P. Todd of Amherst
college, who had charge of‘ the scientific
end of the expedition, .but the results ob-
tained,.he says, will be of much interest
and profit to science. The party took up
its station at Esashi, one of the most re-
mote points on the northern coast of
Yesso, the northern island of Japan. It
proved a more favorable point for Observa-
tion than Akkeshi. where the Lick ob-
servatory expedition sent by Colonel Fred
Cracker from this city set up its instru-
menial.

On Aug. 9 the corona was seen and a
great number of photographs of it made
in the 2 minutes and 80 seconds of the to-
tality of eclipse. The party had three com-
plete sets of the improved photographic
apparatus devised by Professor Todd,
with a total capacity of 450 pictures in
the briefspace of time permitted. The in-
struments were not pressed to their limit:
because the conditions Were not what it
was hoped they would'be To the great
satisfaction of Professor Todd, however,
his machinery worked to perfection.

Philadelphia May “’in.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 5.——The Philadel-
phia cricketers finished their first inning
with the Australians with a total .«of 282
runs, 161 more than the visitors put up
in their first . attempt. The Kangaroo
statesmen then went in for their second
trial, and when stumps were drawn they
had scored. 21 runs for loss of two wickets,
Iredale and Darling, their best bats, being
bowled by Clark and King respectively.

looks as if the home eleven were sure win-
ners.

CANANDAIGUA, N. Y., Oct. 5.—Yester-

usage of firearms. He had secured the
gun and going to the kitchen pointed it at
his mother as she was coming out of the
pantry. The weapon was discharged. and
the heavy charge entered her right- groin,
causing internal hemorrhage, from which
she died shortly after.
