THE MARITIME BOARD OF TRADE
Reported to Have Author- ized
SIR LOUIS DAVIES TO MAKE| AN OFFER
Giving American Fishermen Advan- tage in Return for the U. 8S. Market.
[Speciat to THe Examiner]
Orrawa, August 22.—It is reported that the Maritime Board of Trade, at its meet - ing in Truro, through a committee, waited on the Minister of Marine and Fieher’es to authorize him to make an important offer to the United States Commissioners who are to meet the representatives of Canada im conference at Quebec, on Tuesday.
They have instructed Sir Louis Davies to state that Canada is ready to give the United States fishermen the free use of the inshore fisheries of this country on the same terms as those are enjoyed by Canadian fishermen, if, on the other hands Dominion merchants are guaranteed acces | to the markets of Cuba aad Porto Rico on an equal footing as regards the Customs tariff with American merchants. Sir Louis Davies has just concluded a visit to the Maritime Provinces,and it is believed that one object of the journey was to sound pub~ lic opinion on this matter.
While some merchants and a portion of the fishermen are willing to allow the Americans to share Canadian fisheries on equal terms, it is said to be certain that a large section of fishermen wil] oppose the proposal as soon as they learn it has been made at Cuebec.

ARCHBISHOP IRELAND’ 8 VIEWS
_ --
Catholics in Cuba and Porto Rico Will be Loyal Citizens.
Wasmincron, August 20.—Asked by the correspondent concerning fhe status of tbe Catholic Church in Cuba and Porto Rico, now that they were under the control of the United Sta es Government, Archbishop Ireland made the following statement. “The moment the Stars and Stripes were raised over the conquered islands, the Catholic diocese became subject to the 1) laws of the United S ates, as did the dio- cese of every other :eligious denomination on the islands. The Catholic churches in Cuba and Porto Rico will, ae usual, be under the immediate ecclesiastical control of tte Archbisl ops avd Bishops ae was the casa before the war began. It is pos- sible that in time a Cardinal may be established in one of the islands, the same as here, lothe meantime, it also is pro~ bable that the Cardinal Archbishop of Baltimore will be asked to extend much the same jurisdiction over the church in the islands as he now exercises over the church in the United States,
** Much, doubtiess, will have to be done by the Catholic Church authorities to re~ pair the present shattered condition of ecclesiastical affairsin the islands, Tuaere is much poverty existing among the people of the islands, and now that the Church is separated from the State,which was in Spain,whatever is done to place the several Catholic dioceses on a firm financial footirg necessarily will come from the pockets or Catholics througbout tbe world.
“T have no fear that the priesthood of the islands, whether Spanish or Cuban, will not be loval to the new sovereignty established in their country. It ia # policy of the Catholic Church—a policy almost as old as the Church itself—to support the existing Governmert This being true, it follows that the priesthood in Cuba and Porto Rico, no matter how strong their love for Spain, willobey with unflinching firmness the law of the Charch.
“As Catholics we shall ask no special favours for the Church io the Islands. We shall go on buildiug up the epiritual inter- ests of the Church there, as we have in the United States andas we have every~ where on the habitual globe. The history of the Catholic Church demonstrates to a mathematical certainty that it can care for itself. Allitaskeis a fair field and no special favours.”
