ROME AND SECRET SOCIETIES Ban Not Removed and Catholics Enjointx from Holding Membership. HOLY OFFICE SENDS FURTHER ORDERS KoilliiK < < > < Iie Iiiipilry of nn Ameri can HlNlinp l < c Mil , Worried ConrrriiliiHT ( lie KtiriiiiriiM bltiiittlnii IIM IllKurilVnr. . ( Copyright * ! , me. by I'rrM nibllfihlns Comrany. ) UOMI2 , Nov. 20. ( New York World Cable- , Kram Special Telegram. ) The Holy Office ( the Inquisition ) replying to a question of n bishop of the United States , has Just pub lished a decree forbidding Catholics to con tinue to bo memberj of secret societies even though they should not attend meetings or take an active part In the proceedings. It Is thus clear that the Vatican Is bent on xvaglns ruthless war against secret organizations. It Is understood that the determination of the Holy See was largely due to Jesuits' Influence. The conferences nt the propaganda In con nection with the choice of a successor to Mgr. O'Oonncll , lat.'ly rector of M'c American college , have been stormy. Violent opposi tion was shown at the last moment In cer tain quarters to the appointment of Dr. Ken nedy. Some cardinals strongly urged the Immediate election of Dr. Kennedy , on the ground that he was recommended by all the American archblthops and warmly sup ported by Mgr. Eatolll. Others contended that the " ( erne" submitted by the American bishops was unaccspUblo ! that the Informa tion attached to It was Inadequate and that cither another "terno" was desirable , or f jrther Information as to the candidates should bo requested. In only rare Instances does the propaganda fall to ratify the selections of the bishops. nilEADS THE THOUGHT OP WAR. ' The pope has been much distressed by the persistent war rumors. At the Vatican gloomy views arc taken of the situation. It Is thought even Ifvar does not break out now It cannot be postponed beyond next spring. Leo XIII. Is particularly troubled by the fear that Italy will bo dragged Into the expected struggle. In that ivont the Vatican would find llficlf In a critical position. Communication between the holy sec and the Catholic world might be Interrupted The Italian government would probably refuse to tolerate the pres ence In Home of ambassadors accredited to the Vatican by hostile powers. The pope would probably be treated as a hostage and exposed to danger. Duscusslng the question today with a cardinal , the holy father said : "Whatever happens I shall stay In Homo. " An attempt to leave Home In the event ot war probably would bo opposed by the Italian government. KCCADOll AM ) COI.O.MI1IA FIGHT.

There Is a lot of tronUe on the hands of the city employes who liave drawn the war rants for their November pay. Some tlmo ago an ordinance wtm , adopted In accordance with a law that wasi passed by the last legislature which provided for the registra tion of warrants at 7 p n nt Interest. This was designed to relieve tl o city of the neces sity of paying warrants as they were pre sented , or clso comtfelllng the holders to have them dlscountrtl.nl the local banks or by brokers. It was expected that the banks would be very wllllngito cash all 7 per cent warrants and thus employes would bo as sured of their full pay , whether there was any money In the funds on which the war rants were drawn or not. U now appears that the now arrange ment Is not producing the desired result. The funds are generally depicted and nil November warrants on the fire , police , school , curbing , guttering and clean ing and special funds were registered tor payment whenever the condition of the treasury would admit. The holders of warrants now claim that the banks have re fused to cash these 7 per cent. registered war rants unless the holders are customers nnd have demanded I per cent discount on the face of the warrants. This was a tax on all school teachers , members ot the lire and police dc- partmcnto nnd various other employes. Em ployes nro very Indgnant at what they de nounce aa "hogglshness" on the part of the banks which refuse to be satisfied with the 7 per osnt Interest paid by the city. The school teachers were especially enthusiastic In their expression of Indignation nnd this has con tributed to their relief. Yesterday Thomas Kllpatrlck sent word to all the schools Unit he would cash all the teachers' warrants , amounting to about $25,000 , at th ir face value on presentation at his store. His propo sition was accepted with thanks by the 'earn ers nnd those who have not already i > havcd their warrants are taking advantage of his liberality. _ _ HAS FOUND .IOIIS FOIl TWO MHX.
