from Pope Leo addressed to the archbishops
and bishops of the United. States ia now
ready snd will be transmitted through
out the United States through the
usual channels In few days. 1t treats
principally with the usual channels In q
few days. It treats principally with tho
authority and powers Of the apostolic del
eeate, Mgr. Satolli, who IS confirmed and
strenghthened in his position.
The letter Is certain to cause . profound
sensation In ecclesiastical circles in the
United States similar to that excited last
year in France by Leo's recommendation
to the Catholic leaders OF that country, in
which be urged them to loyalty accept the
republic and no longer waste their efforts
and their forces by standing aloof and
striving for the ifnpossibls---that Is, the
return and the restoration Of tho royaiists
TO power.
In the present important encyciical Pope
Leo confirms the friendly disposition pre-
viously manifested toward republicans
form Of government, demonstrating anew
TINT the church is FREQ to accept and show
sympathy with popular institutions not
Inherently hostile to Christian principles.
In detail the encyciicai enlarges to the
fullest extent the power and Jurisdiction
of the apostolic delegate, thus comforting
on Mgr. Satollt almost plcnary authority.
All matters Of informal and local contro-
versy affecting the church in the United
States shall no longer be under the juris-
diction Of the courts Of the propaganda,
but will be heard and disposed Of in the
delegates tribunal, which becomes, In
fact an American ecclesiastical court
This is further and most important
recognition Of home rule in the church,
and will go far to do away with the 1eal-
olisy of Rome and Roman influence which
has hitherto prevailed In certain quarters
within and without the church.
The enoyclicai, In language and spirit,
breathes an ardent affection for the people
and institutions of the United States. and
Is not sparing In expressions Of respect and
admiration for the popular form and demo
cratic spirit OF our government.
From this forecast of the encyclical 1t Is
easy to see that it will bc received with un-
usual favor In the United States by all
classes, adding a new and an important
testimony to the Justly earned title Of Leo
XIII, the pope of the people
The encyclical concludes by expressing
the warmest confidence In and giving the
fullest approval Of the course of Mgr. Sa-
tolli and his liberal policies

TARIFF WAR GROVI|
The Austrian Minista
ters 4 Formal Pro
AGAINST THE NEW SUGAR DUTY

Though No Threat Of Retaliation Accom-
panied tho Protest ths Next stop wni
Undeubtedly be In That Direction The
Cabinet Disenssss ths Matter.
wAsHrNaToN, Jan. b,-The tariff war
between the United States and Europe
reached an acute phase yesterday. The
very flrst official act Of Mr.. Henelemuller,
the new Austrian minister, was the lodge
ment Of q protest against that paragraph
Of the sugar schedule Of the tariff act
which Imposes an additional duty Of LILO
Of per cent. on sugar coming to the
United States from countries which pay
an export bounty on 1t. This action
was taken yesterday, and the ground taken
by the3ninister was similar TO that which
for1ne6 the basis Of the protest Of Ger
manyethat the additional duty Is dis
crimination against Austria, and Is con-
sequently q violation of the treaty Of com
merce with that nation
So far no threat Of retaliation accom-
panied the protest, but in this Mr.. Hengle-
muller Is but following the example set by
the German minister. and the next step
will undoubtedly be In the same direction,
namely the imposition Of some restriction
upon an American product that is i'm
ported II quantities into Austria.
The four great sources Of our sugar sup
ply, outside of che small proportion con-
tributed by Louisiana, are Cuba, Ger
many, France and Austria With three
Of these countries we are already at odds
over the sugar duty, and In the case Of
Framed there are already indications Of
the adoption Of a retaliatory policy In the
imposition of restrictions upon our meat
trade and the Importation Of American
wheat and -four.
This whole subject was under discussion
by the cabinet yesterday, and as far as can
be gathered the outcome was that II con-
gress fails to come to the relief Of the ex-
ecutive by the removal Of the duty which
Is supposed to cause the trouble, then re-
sort must be had to retaliation, which will
either open European countries TO our ex-
ports or close our own ports to all Euro
pean products.
