G Tho last pub lie mass in this country conducted by Carlinul Satolli und the farewell re- i Alovsius church and tho recaption beiug at Gonzaga college, BISHOP 1CEANE IS OUT. Retired as Her.rt of the Catholic Univer sity of America. Washisoton, Oct. 0. -Bishop Kcanc, rector of tho Catholic university of America, makes the following state ment concerning hit withdrawal from tho head of that institution: Since my withdrawal from tho rectorship of tho Catholic University of America will probably bo regarded by a consid erable portion of the American public as a matter of sorao Interest to them, nnd since unauthorised statements are a,pt to bo misleading, I deem it my duty to stato brifly and clearly the facts of tho case. On September 28 I :ecoived through his eminence, Cardinal Gibbons, a let ter from our holy father, Leo XIII, of which tho following is a translation; "It is customary that those who are appointed to preside over Catholic universities should not hold the office in perpetuity. This custom has grown up through wise reasons, and the Ro man pontiffs have over been careful that it should be adhered to. Since, therefore, vencrablo brother, you have now presided for several years over tho university at Washington, la tho first establishment and subse quent development of which you havo shown laudable zeal and diligence, it has seemed best that tho ubovo men tioned custom should not be departed from, and that another, whose name is to be proposed to us by the bishops, should be nppolutcd to succeed you in this honorable position. in oruer. However, mat. in votir resigning this office, due regard may oo nan to your person and dignity, we have determined to oluvnte you to the rank of archbishop. Being solicitous of your future wotfarcy wo leavo it to your own free choice either to remain in your own country, or. If you prefer It, to come to Rome. If you chooso the former wo will destine for you some archepIscop.il see, by vote of tho bishops ot tho United States. If you prefer tho lattor, wo shall wclcomo you most lovingly, and will pltice you among tho consul'tors of tho congre gation of studies and the congregation of the propaganda, in both of which you could do much for the iutrosts of religion in the United Stutes In this latter case we would also assign you a suitablo revenues for your honorable maintcnauco. Tho next dny I mailed to tho holy father a reply, of which the following is a translation: "Without a moment of hesitation I accept tho will of your holiness In tho mnttcr as a manifestation of tho prov idence of God, and from this instant I resign into the hnndsof his eminence, the chancellor, tho Office of 'rector, with all tho rights thereto attaching. Thanking your holiness for tho free dom of choice granted mo, I choose to remain in my own country, nnd, moreover, without any official posi tion whatsoever." SECRET FUSION IN TEXAS Republicans Gold Democrat and Iopu- lists Reach a I'rlTato Agreement. Dallas, Tex., Oct 0. Fusion be tween the Republicans, Populists und gold standard Democrats of Texas has at length been definitely accom plished. N. W. Cunoy, tho colored leader, who was formerly tho national com mitteeman, said to-day: "It is a fact that fusion has for moro than two weeks existed between the Repub licans and Populists of Texas. The agreements thus fur arrived at are kept from the public for reasons con sidered judicious by the leaders. The Republicans aro openly supporting the Populist stato ticket, and most of the county tickets, and what wo are to gat in return is, of course, anti-Bryan electors. How we aro to get these is, for the present, a part of the socret of tho campaign. We expect to do such effective work that at least a part, if not all of the electors from Texas will be anti-Bryan." General Huston, one of the Repub lican leaders, said: "It may bo ac cepted that very few Republican votes will be cast in Texas for the McKinley electors. The most of them will be cast for the Populist electors, with the pledcre to vato against Bryan in the electoral college. It is moro than probnblo that public announcement to this effect will be made within the next three to five days and the Repub lican electoral ticket pulled down." GENERALS IN MISSOURI.
