Total Abstainers Give Assurance uf
Support if It Is Needed.
THEIR MILITARY CORPS IX LINE
Yesterday's Quarterly Convention of the
C. T. A. V. Takes Action on tbe
Vcncinclan Matter Other Im
portant Question Considered.
One hundred und twenty dek-gtates
representing the societies of the second
district of the Catholic Total Absti
nence union In quarterly convention In
St. John's hall. Pine Brook, yesterday
adopted resolutions endorsing the action
of the president of the I'nited States In
the Venezuelan affair and assuring him
of the support of the military companies
of the union if It Is necessary to enforce
the Monroe doctrine by war.
The second district of the Scranton
Diocesan union comprises all the Father
.Mathew societies In and nliout Scran-
t numbering about 3.000 men . aud
having drilled corps in which are en
rolled nearly one-third of the member
ship. They would be capable of put
tingawell disciplined, thoroughly drilled
and efficiently officered regiment in the
Held almost as expeditiously as the
regular state militia and as Is evident
their resolution of yesterday Is of no
mean consequence.
The committee .onl resolutions has
made Its report and the routine business
iif the convention was being proceeded
with when Captain James Puggan. of
the Father Whltty society, of Provi
dence, who was among the spectators,
asked for the privilege of the floor, and
this being granted called the attention
of the meeting to what be deemed an
accidental oversight In tbe tonnuUUie
on resolution-! falling to prive some ex
pression on the all prevailing qiientlnn
of the day. Business wa immediately
suspended and the committee', was
sent back to draft a resolution fcxprpss
Inrf the- convention's approbation, , Vj
President Cleveland's patriotic wtaM,
After a short recess the committee,
through ItB chairman, J. l (lalluRher,
returned und read the following, which
was adopted with ringing applauao:
President' Action Undorscd. t
"Resolved that we heartily endorse
the president of the ITnlted States for
his munly declaration In upholding the
Monroe doctrine, and that we can sufely
pledge to htm the support of the mili
tary corps of this district In defense
of that doctrine If necessary."
When the cheering which followed the
tiuuuimous udoptlon of tbe resolution
had subsided Thomas Mcl.aln. of the
St. Haul's moved a vote of thanks to
Captain Duggun for reminding the
convention of the omission. .Captain
Duggan In turn thanked the gathering
for the courtesy extended him and In
concluding a neat little speech, said:
"A good Catholic must needs he a rimmI
citizen. Catholic Total Abstinence men
nre among the best of Catholics, there
fore they must be amonrc the 'best of
citizens for good old mother church
teaches us to be true tr the Hag oven
to death."
Altogether yesterday's convention
wns probubly the most Important yet
belli owing to the number of Questions
of great moment to the cause that were
discussed and ncted upon and for the
nddltionul reason that the attendance
wns the largest since the Inception of
these quarterly gatherings. When
Chairman Timothy J. McCoy called the
meeting to order at 2."0 p. m. every
seat In the hall was taken and addi
tional chairn had to he brought In to
pn vide for the delegates and spectators
who came In late. The front tiers of
seats were occupied by the representa
tives of the ladies' societies. Their
presence in such gratifying numbers
prompted Oelegate Frank McLaln, of
the St. Paul's, to launch a movement
for the formation of a National Catho
lic Total Abstinence union of ladies
nlong the lines of the Women's Chris
tian Tenmerance union, which he held
up as highly worthy of emulation by the
Catholic women of America. The con
vention, however, felt that the time
was not rl:ie for the formation of Hueh
n society owing to the fact that there
are not a sufllcient number of ladies'
societies as yet organized, so the matter
was allowed to rest.
Enforcement nf License Law.
The question which brought out the
most animated discussion was that of
vigilance committees to secure an en
forcement of the license laws, which
was Introduced at the lust convention
by James F. Judge, of the Diocesan
Index, and which was referred to the
different societies for discussion. The
resolution In full was that a committee
of one from each society be appointed to
hear reports of violation of the liquor
laws und report them to the spiritual
director to be made the subject of legal
action.
I'. J. Mulhcrn, of the St. Joseph's, of
Mlnooku. strenuously objected to the
measure because he believed it was far
from proper to send Father Mathew
men spying about speak-easies and sa
loons, which their organization bids
them avoid; and further, he did not ap
prove of unking the spiritual directors
of societies to meddle In a matter which
the law Is supposed to attend to. Mr.
Judge, the father of the motion, claimed
that Mr. Mulhern had a wrong concep
tion of the Intent of the motion. It was
fa. from his mind, he said, to make
spies out of the Father Mathew men
or to send them to visit saloons. His
purpose was to have a committee of one
from each society to devise a plan for
securing a proper enforcement of the
laws.
The president of the Diocesan union,
J. J. O'Hara. of Wllkes-Barre, who oc
cupied a seat on the platform, aroused
Mr. Judge's ire by remarking that there
was intelligence enough In the conven
tion to properly appreciate the Intent
of the motion, anil predicted that It
would be snowed under beyond resur
rection. "It is poor grace for the president of
this union," said Mr. Judge, "to Inter
fere here to Influence this convention.
I think he has overstepped his bounds."
Mr. O'Hara made no retort, but had
the satisfaction of seeing his prediction
f ullilled.
Tho Antl-Treating .Measure'.
The antl-treating measure, which was
another of Mr. Judge's Ideas, was not
considered. One thing, however, which
originated with the aggressive editor
of the Index and which met with favor
at the hands of the convention was the
plan to make honorary members of the
Catholic women who cared to adiliate
themselves with the total abstinence
movement by taking the pledge and
promising to discourage drinking as
much as they can, not being expected
however to take any cognizance of the
obnoxious clause in the much discussed
"Appeal to Women" which advises them
to sacrifice a tippling lover rather than
risk becoming a drunkard's wife.
The project to establish a paper to
be the organ of the. union was Silled
by a vigorous onslaught 15 by J. C.
Gallagher who advistf the members to
pay up their subscriptions to the tem
perance papers and freely patronize
the daily papers which are ever ready
to liberally give their space to the
cause of temperance. John H. Devlne,
ex-preBldent of the union, did not look
kindly upon a union organ and let his
opinions be known In no uncertain
language. The motion that passed was
that It Is the sense of the convention
that it Is Inexpedient to attempt to
establish a Diocesan union paper.
M. J. O'Toole, chairman of the com
mittee appointed to consider the scheme
for building a Father Mathew hall In
Hcranton, was unable to be present, but
sent a letter reporting that the matter
was under way and by the next con
vention clana would be ready for pres
entation. . i
In response to request for Informa
tion concerning the operations of the
Keeley Institute into which the board
of directors was instructed to Inquire,
there was n resent at the convention Or.
J. 3. McLaughlin, physician of the local
league; I'. I kill, manager, ana r ran
Canavnn. secretary. Dr. Mol.auKr.lln
was given the privilege or the tloor and
upon announcing that he was at one
time corresponding secretary of the
Brooklyn Diocesan union, was warmly
received. He took about half an hour
to explain the work and results of the
Hveeley institute and as a result of his
address the committee on resolutions
reported a resolution endorsing the
league.
Thanks to St. John's Society.
Among other things which were fa
vored by the committee on resolutions
was the formation of ladles' and cadet
scleties. They also expressed the
thanks of the convention to St. John's
society for Its entertainment and to the
press and to the union officers who were
present. The committee was composed
of J. C. riallagher. P. J. Mulkern. J. H.
Devlne, P. F. McCoy, Tim Burke.
The proposition to sing temperance
songs at -future conventions was car
ried. The invitation of the Father
Whittys to hold the next convention in
Providence was accepted. At this
meeting a debate was arranged for on
the question, "Kesolved. That moral
suasion is more effective than legal
suasion." The debaters named by
Chairman McCoy are James P. Judfte,
John McTlernan, of the Father
Mathews,, of Hyde Pork: Thomas Mc
Laln, of the St. Paul's, and John H. De
vine, of the St. Leo's.
President O'Hara and Vice-President
Peter McCoy, of the Diocesan union,
made short advisory addresses at the
opening of the convention.
' P.J. Murherln. of the Father Whitty's.
read a puperon "The Moderate Drinker."
He characterised moderate drinking as
one of the greatest foes of the work and
the moderate drinker of today is the
drunkard of tomorrow. if all the
drunkards, he said, should suddenly
reform their places would be filled in a
short time, but if all the moderate
drinkers should become total abstainers
In time there would he no drunkards as
the source of supply would be cut off.
The increasing Interest which the so
cieties take in these quarterly conven
tions was evidenced yesterday by the
presence of a stenographer. Miss Sarah
L. .Me Hale, who was engaged by the
Father Mathews of the West side to
furnish them with a report of the
proceedings.
At & o'clock a recess of half an hour
was taken, during which a lunch was
served by the St. Johns'. At the con
clusion of the meeting an Impromptu
musical entertainment was given.

REFUTING A SLANDER.
Scranton, Pa., Jan. 10.
Lieutenant Ezra 8. Urlffln post. No.
1.19, of this city, desires In refutation
of the statement In the editorial col
umns of tne Scranton Republican of
Jan. 3, 1896. to call the attention of the
public to the following:
Chapter 6, Article XI, rules and regu
lation of the Grand Army of the Ite
puhlic, reads
"No officer or comrade of the Grand
Army of the Republic shall In any man
ner use this organization for partisan
purposes, and do discussion of partisan
questions shall be permitted at any of
Its meetings. Nor shall any nomina
tion for political office be made."
The records of the adjutant general's
office at Harrisburg and Bate's His
tory of Pennsylvania Volunteers, 1861
85. give the record of comrade Kzra If.
Ripple, of this post, as a private of
Company K, Fifty-second regiment,
Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry.
We feel that this statement should
be accorded as prominent a place In the
papers of this city as the article it re

DIED WHIIEJ CHURCH
Edward McGoff Succumbed to an
Attack of Heart failure.
WAS A RESIDENT OP UELLETE
Attacked by Weakness While Saying
Ills lra;crs In His Pew -Carried to
the Hear of tho Church
Where He Kxpircd.
Edward McGoff, nn aged resident of
Bellevue, died suddenly of apoplexy
at the 10.30 mass In St. Peter's cathedral
yesterday morning. He arrived at the
church a few minutes before Rev. M. J.
Mlllane, the celebrant of tac mass, left
the sacristy, and took a seat in the right
aisle, close to the sanctuary rail.
After kneeling down to pray an at
tack of weakness overcome him and he
sat up In the pew. Those around no
ticed that something was wrong with
him; he made several Ineffectual at
tempts to arise and go out. Just as the
priest was ascending the altar, the de
ceased got very weak and' fell over on
his side.
Contractor P. F. May, of Bellevue,
who knew him well, was In the pew
ahead and he Immediately came to the
stricken man's assistance. Mr. May
end E. J. Leonard carried tbe uncon
scious form down to the entrance of the
cathedral; John J. O'Hoyle, of Vine
street, one of the ushers, hastened to
t:.e episcopal residence and summoned
Li v. J. A. O'Reilly, the rector.
Hied While the Choir Sang the (ilorla
llcv. Father O'Reilly administered
the last rites of the church, and then
Dr. R. Hums, of Wyoming avenue, ar
rived. Mr. McUoff was in the last stage
of animation when the doctor arrived
and the application of restoratives had
no effeci. The man died In a few min
utes, he lived about a quarter of an
hour after being carried down the aisle.
The choir wus singing the Gloria when
the life left his body.
A double carriage owned by Mrs.
Garvey. of Bellevue, was hitched iu
front of the cathedral and this was
used to convey the body to Mr. McGoff 's
home, 427 Railroad avenue. Rev. Father
O'Rellley, Senator J. C. Vaughan and
Contractor May accompanied the re
mains. Coroner S. P. Longstreet was notified
and he visited the residence In the after
noon. Therebelng no presumption oth
er than that death was due to either
heart failure or apoplexy. Dr. Long
street, therefore, considered an Inquest
unnecessary and he gave a permit for
interment.
Mr. McGoff leaves a grown up family
of four ehtld,ren. He was father of
Edward J. McGoff, clerk In the grocery
store of James J. O'Malley, of Rallroud
avenue His long life was one of rec
titude, and he was respected by oil who
were acquainted with him. In his way
he was a quiet, unostentatious citizen,
attentive and devoted to the welfare of
his family.
Congregation Not Aware of Ills Death.
He was employed at the Bellevue
breaker of the Delaware. Lackawanna
and Western as an outside, workman,
and had been In the employ of the com
pany for the past thirty years. He ac
cumulated valuable property In Belle
vue. The majority of the congregation was
not aware of the happening until mass
was over. Very few knew that the man
who was carried out was Edward Mc
Goff, for the repose of whose soul the
priest and the people offered up their
prayers Just before the sermon was
preached.
