GO ARCHBISHOP DEAD. Died on a lo Kin Old Home. FILIl'IXOS AVVVAL. Death lit xpecUd lilt Career la Ore gon aod tVssbloaion. Archbishop William Hlt kley Gross, of the Oregon Roman Catholic church, did at fit. Joseph's hospital, Baltimore, Md., this morning. Hit grace bad been 1.1 ill health for some time, and during the first week of last September, be de cided to visit bis old borne in Bslti moro. Then he did not expect his ailment would terminate fatally. But about eight days ago he was taken to bed, from which he never arose, passing into a tranquil and eternal sleep, from general debility.' Ilia death was an unexpected one, as up to within few hours of bis grace's demise be gave evidence of re cuperation. The Telegram gives the folowing sketch ot bis life: The Most Reverend William II. Gross, D. D , C. BP. R., third archbishop of Oregon, waa born in the city of Balti more, Md , on June 12, 1837. The Gross family came originally from Alsace, and and its American founder, Jacob Gross, and his son, John J. Gross the second, was engaged in mercantile business in Baltimore, and he also held office as one of the officials of the port of Baltimore, The archbishop's mother, Rachel, was a descendant of an Irish exile of 1798. The archbishop often referred, both In priyate and public, to the aaintly and the devoted mother, whose tender care and loving solicitude watched over his early years. When she died, his sister, Mary Cordelia Gross, then bat 16 years of age, took her place, and for 20 years performed all the duties of a mother to ward her six younger brothers, Joseph, Alfred, Louis, William, Mark and Jacob. The archbishop received bis early edu cation at the parochial school, attached fto Bt. Vlncent'a church, Baltimore. In this church be also made bis first com munion. In 1857 he was invested with the re ligious habit aod formally began bis career as a Redemptoriat novice. His novitiate, However, did not pass over without a severe test. Ilia health gave way to such a degree that bia life was despaired of. On April 4,1858, he made hia first rows, when his aim was cen tered upon becoming a perfect Redemp toriat In March, 1863, the deceased prelate waa ordained a prelate at An napolis, ML, by Archbishop Kentrick, of Baltimore. He remained a part of the time aa army chaplain at Annapolis. Hia ex periences during the civil war were of a trying order. He waa almost inces santly in the hot piiat, the field of battle, the skirmish line or at the lonely out- poet. In July, 1871, he was sent to Boston for mission work, in which he was pre eminently successful. While engaged in this aealooa work the holy see startled him by appointing him successor to Bishop Tersici, of Sa vannah, Ga., and he was consecrated by Archbishop Bayley, of Baltimore. The now dead prelate then was only 36 years old. When Archbishop Gross was pro moted to the archiepiscoual see of Ore gon in 1885, he could point to a splendid cathedral erected by his exertions among a people of scanty means, the number of priests increased to 27, churches and chapels to 30, institutions and orphan asvlums to 14. And all this was done in a Catholic population not exceeding 25,000, And what was of par amount importance to the future pro gress of the Catholic church in Georgia, wherever there was a Catholic priest, there was also to be found a parochial school. The record of bis administration of the diocese of Savannah is, indued a glorious one. When Archbishop Seghers resigned in 1884, in order to devote his life more particularly to (he Indian missions of the extreme Northwest the holy see se lected Bishop Gross to succeed him, It was hard for Bishop Gross to sever the ties of love and friendship which bound him to the faithful people ot Savannah, but, ever obedient to the will of his su periors,, he bowed his head to the decis ion ot Rome and entered in May, 1885, on the duties of his new office. His po sition was a difficult one. He bad to fill the place of a prelate whose saintly life and benign demeanor had won all hearts. It was at his instance that the Bene dictine Fathers at Mount Angel opened it college for the higher education of the young, which is advancing yearly in the number of its pupils and the efficiency of its training, Later on, at bis request, ja lesser and a greater seminary nave been added, so that young Oregonians art now provided right at borne with a!) the facilities needed for attaining the education, required by the church In can didates, for the priesthood. The Cbriatian Brothers have also been introduced Into Oregon to take charge of 8t. Michael's tollege and the paro chial school attached to the cathedral. Academlea for the education of young ladles have increased front eight to twenty. In addition to the religious or ders of women already In the diocese,six additional orders have been introduced. Parochial schools have been established In a large number of parishes, and whereas in 1885 there were only two, to day there are 27 with an attendance of 2500 pupils; while the total number of ehildren under Catholic care has in creased from 897 to 6460. Io other works of charity his seal has been no leaa manifested. A magnificent new hospital has been erected on Port land Heights by the Sisters of Charity of Providence, to take tbe place of their former building; and a new hospital has been bnilt io Baker City, of which the Sisters of St. Francis are in charge. He has also established a new home for the aged in East Portland, and placed it in charge of tbe Sisters of Mercy. Tbe Sisters of tbe Good Shepherd, at his sug gestion, bave established a House of Refuge for fallen women, near Oregon City, and, aided by the generous charity of the faitnful, have erected a large and commodious building in which to carry out their work of mercy. On the 20th. 27th and 28th of last April tbe silver jubilate of Archbishop Grose waa celebrated here. On thia oc casion, which waa the greatest church eyent in the history of Oregon, a beauti ful residence waa presented to him. Howo Koko, Nov. 14. The Filipino junta representatives of General Aguinal do and the Philipino government here have drawn up what they designate "an appeal to President McKinley and the American people," but what is in reality rather in the nature of an arraignment of American actions in tbe Phillipinea. John Barrett, formerly United States minister at Siam. waa asked by the junta to present tbe memorial to the United Biatea government and people. Mr. Barrett replied that, while be could bare no official Influence regarding the status of the matter, he was satisfied that i document whicb represented the sent! ments of the Filipinos would receive at tbe hands of the Americana all Ihe con sideration it merited. The memorial says .- "We, tbe Hong Kong representatives of onr countrymen, appeal to tbe'great and good judgment of President McKin ley and tbe spirit of fairness and justness of tbe American people, as it is always shown in their regard for the petitions of tbe weak and oppressed. "While the fate of tbe islands Is still undecided, and we are doing all in;our power to prevent a conflict between the Americans and the Filipinos awaiting patiently the conclusion of the Paris conference, we Implore the intervention of the president, supported by the will ol the people, to end the slights shown our leaders, soldiers and people by some of the American naval and military officers although we do not wish to wrong Admiral Dewey or General Otis." Tbe memorial then avers that "false reports are spread broadcast alleging that the Filipinos are responsible for the friction, points out that the tension is becoming greater every day, and any moment a shot may be fired by an irre sponsible American or Filipino soldier leading to great bloodshed," aod be seeches tbe United States, "to help tbe junta to control our own people by direct ing American officers to temper their offices with friendship, justice and fair ness." "From the commencement of the hostilities," continues the memorial, "the Filipinos acceded to all American demands, but after bottling up the Span iards in Manila, the Filipinos were com pletely ignored when the Americans ad vanced, and thus deprived of the fruits of victory. Now, after menths of cam paigning, the Filipino troops have been ordered beyond the suburbs, where they have no quarters, and where supplies are difficult to obtain. All our launches have been seized because of foolish rumors that we would attack the Ameri cans, and when we asked explanations we were not even answered. The Span lards, of late the enemies of tbe A nieri cens, have been shown every consider ation, while tbe Filipinos, their friends and allies, are often treated as enemies. After asserting that the Filipinos uni formly acted upon the advice of the Americans and were informally recog nized by them until Manila was captured and the memorial goes on to say : "We can only attribute thia sudden change to orders from Washington to American officials at Manila to avoid compromising the American government by a recognition of the Filipinos or tbeir government. The Americans are carry ing out these instructions literally, losing sight of the former friendly intercourse and assistance and of tbe assurance the American officials gave Agulnaldo, which he communicated to his followers." After emphasizing the Junta's "abso lute confidence In President McKinley and the people of the great republic," stating that "our protests are not prompted by animosity, but are directed against conditions existing at Manila, and not against the American govern ment and people," acknowleeging "oar gratitude to American arms lor destroy ing the Spanish power in the Philippines" and expressing "a hope that the islands are not tjbe returned to Spain," the memorial concludes thus; "We await the arbitrament of the peace commission with even greater interest than the Americans, because it concerns our land, our happioess and our freedom. In the meantime we shall pray for peace and a perfect understand ing with tbe Americana." cocm COURT. Proceedings ef the Regular Nsrember Messlia. Tkas. f Kyaa, Judge) 8. F.
