Likely Catholic plenary council to be held in 1902
Washington reports say a plenary Catholic council in America could be held in 1902 to mark roughly twenty years since the Baltimore council. The move hinges on Rome orders and American archbishop petitions, with dialogue possible at the October meeting in Washington. The Cuban Spanish American churches remain outside the U S hierarchy and are led by apostolic delegates. Archbishop Francona's Canada appointment is noted as significant to church affairs. Archbishop Kane travels from Rome toward Washington, and Mer Martinelli plans visits to Madison, Wis., and the West.
