Politics mt PUris.

There are hints of "a foreign compli-
cation to influence the Congressional
elections, but if they mean anything
more than an unexpected controversy
between the American and Spanish
Commissions al Paris, they are proba-
bly, groundless. There is some reason
TO think Judge Day is not indisposed to
create a condition that will make it
seem the patriotic duty of the people to
preserve a solid front until peace is
achieved; to avoid all divisions, espe-
cially on party lines. until the results
of the war are fully ours, to use the
phrases and ideas of the President. I'm
less Judge Day has such a purpose in
view, there is no way to explain the
course of his Commission.
The protocol was supposed TO settle
the question of sovereignty in Porto
Rico and Cuba, Internationally. If. as
alleged. Sagasta entered the plea that it
was signed under duress, there was
only one thing to do-to demand
whether he proposed to stand by it or
not If not, then the Americans should
gather up their typewriters and come
home. while the President proclaimed
the end of the truce. But after two
weeks Of discussion they are nearly at
deadlock over the question of sover-
eighty in Cuba, which was really set
tied by the protocol. There is ample
reason for the suspicion that Judge Day
is manufacturing difficulties to give
point to the Presidents phrases about
standing together. and the like.
1t was supposed by the public that
the only cause of dispute would be in
the question of the Philippines. But it
seems there are reasons why this should
not be reached before the elections.
Just what they are we can only guess.
Certain il is that if the Presidents re-
cent speeches mean anything, they
mean he has made up his mind not to
demand all the islands, which is con-
trary to the popular sentiment. The
trouble with the care of our army-the
source of disease and death in the
field, on transports and in camp-is
known to have been politics. That
seems to be the matter with the Peace
Commission.

THE NAME OF THE CHURCH.
Efforts to Bring About n Change
MnN BE EruitIesS.

The proposition to change the name of
the Protestant Episcopal Church to THE
American Church., is the subject in
which the members of the House of
Deputies are most interested just now.
but it is doubtful, after all. if the ques-
ton will come up for action at the pres
ent convention. While the subject has
not been before the house in a decided
form yet. substitutes and amendments
bearing upon the title of the constitution
and ultimately of the church have crept
up in abundance during the sessions of
the past two weeks.
Almost without exception these methods
of beating about the bush have met with
failure, and the treatment of the matter
apparently voiced the sentiment of the
House of Deputies in regard to the
changing of the church name as we'll
1t is the opinion of authorities on the
subject that this Fastening of the queS-
ton has probably nipped it in the bud
1t is also claimed that while church peo-
pie are not satisfied with the term Prot
estant Episcopal" its use in this par
ticular instance being a misnomer ac-
cording to their point of view. they are
not yet ready lOr CnanSe.
The proposition to change the name
has number of supporters, one of
whom said yesterday: THE word Prot
estant' is altogether out of place. The
church never at any time in its history
protested even against the crown,
although it has often had just cause.
The word crept in by mistake, and it
was never intended to be the title of the
church The word Episcopal teaches
nothing The American Church would
cover everything-the historic church in
America. We are not the Anglican
church; she is our mother.
The principal topic of the afternoon dis
cussion, relating to the article in the
constitution on the mode of trying
bishops brought to the floor many learned
debaters 1t was question that ap-
pealed to the legal element among the
deputies, and number of them divided
the issue with their clerical brethren
After the routine business of the morn
ing session the first ripple of interest
was caused by a resolution offered by
the Rev DIR. G. W. Nelson, of Virginia
providing for the appointment OF COM
mittee to report upon the erection in this
CITY of building in which the conven-
tions of the church could be held. DR.
Nelson stated in support of his resolu.
ton. that inasmuch as 1t had already
been decided to hold the conventions oi
the church hereafter in unconsecrated
buildings, he thought it would be APP
propriate to have a permanent meeting
place in the national capital Objection
was made to the immediate consideration
of the resolution, however. and it was

a Book by Countess Larisch to Dis

Vienna, Oct. 1S.-Countess Marie Lar

has written a book, which is expected
to disclose many court secrets when it
leaves the press.
The Countess was at one time a great
favorite of the Empress, but lost her
favor at court, by being associated with
the Countess Vetsera, and by introduc-
ing her to the Crown Prince Rudolf The
Countess some time ago sought to JUS
tify her career with the Crown Prince
and Countess Vetsera, by explaining in
book form, her connection with the af-
fair.
1t is understood that she wrote such
a book and gave it into the hands of
a publisher. who was persuaded from
printing ii, by a trusty emiSsary of the
Emperor. The Countess also received
it is stated. considerable money, as a
consolation. She also received an annu-
al allowance from the Empress, in COM
pensation for her absence from court
Since the death of Empress Elizabeth
the annuity has been stopped, and the
book now to be published, is supposed
to be a revised version of her former
manuscript.
The publishers declare that revela-
tions, duplicating personalities of the
highest standing at court are contained
in the book, under title of "Koenigs-
maerchen' GA Royal Romance
