Edes will send Hudson a facsimile of the chains of St. Peter and St. Paul. Did Hudson meet Father Carberry, O.P., when he visited America with the Dominican General? Hudson no doubt has seen the papal telegram to Washington and the reply. Protestant newspapers went so far as to declare that the Catholic Church was anti-republic. Edes told the editor of the Observatore Romano and prevailed upon him to tell Louis Cardinal Jacobini the mistake they had made. Giacomo Cardinal Antonelli would never have made such a slip but here America is of no account. An American prelate told Edes that the Holy Father Leo XIII asked him if the United States were not the same as Mexico. The demise of the Aurora Created no tears since it never had the Pope's approval. The report in the Pilot, the Union and other Irish Catholic newspapers of America, that the fall of the Aurora was due to English influence in Rome, is false. According to Archbishop Alessander Franchi the cause of these reports is a Florentine priest named Mori, who was deprived of his faculties and had difficulties with the Archbishop of Florence, which precludes his return there. The first error of the Aurora was giving a detailed account of the Monaco marriage dissolution, which caused a remonstrance from the representative of this principality near the Holy See. Articles on Belgium and France resulted in the Aurora losing numerous subscribers. For a time nothing officials save Encyclicals appeared in its columns and for the last three months Mori was editor. Mori and Cimarra, a nephew of Louis Cardinal Jacobini, proposed starting a new Catholic newspaper, but neither Pope Leo XIII or Jacobini would put up the money, so Mori according to the Catholic Review has arrived in America to solicit funds. The Rome correspondent of the Pilot has been made a tool of his to spread the tale that the Aurora failed because of English influence, a lie invented to gain the support of the Irish element in Ireland, England and America in behalf of the defunct paper's editor. Edes warns Hudson of Mori's wickedness. :: X-2-h A.L.S. 8pp. 12mo. 10
