No letter from Rome yet. Ella B. Edes wrote on Jan. 25 that it was decided to submit a dilemma to Father James S. O'Sullivan, either to withdraw his case from before the civil courts or to be suspended. McQuaid is not justified in proceeding in the case without receiving an official answer. Bis op Richard Gilmour of Cleveland asked McQuaid when McQuaid was going there. McQuaid answered that he and Bishop William George McCloskey of Louisville would go to Cleveland immediately after March 17. Father W.A. McDonald did not accept the Rectorship of the Cathedral because of his health. Father James P. Kiernan takes the charge. He is a capable, even a remarkable young man. McQuaid is confident of disposing of the Young Men's building before long. Two parties with large means are looking after it. :: I-1-i A.L.S.
