PAPAL DELEGATE IS SNUBBED
MEETS WITH A CHILLY RECEP-
TON IN MEXICO.
Archbishop Averadi Disappointed In
His Visit-Bad Feeling Was Man
ifested.

City of Mexico, March 11.-Archbish-
OPP Averadi. papal delegate to Mexico,
viii probably not return here. 1t is an
open secret in ecclesiastic circles that
he was profoundly disappointed in his
reception here ard the scant courtesy
shown here A friend of the distin-
guished prelate says
When the papal delegate arrived it
was but natural that the archbishop
Of Mexico should offer hiTl hospitality,
but he had to seek lodgings with an
eminent and friendly physician of this
capital. This gave him the first idea
of the disposition of the Mexican pre-
lates toward him who was the direct
representative of the Holy Father, and
as time went on he found the DISPOSE
ton prevalent TO regard him as an in
terlOper and feeling surely not one of
loyalty to the Pope was manifested.
1T is true that on several occasions.
as al public dinners, the papal delegate
spoke his mind freely, but his warm
Italian temperament and frank dispo-
sitiOn prompted his utterances. which
were the reverse of complimentary to
the native clergy. 1t was his opinion
that the clergy here were incapable of
organization and resentful of even the
slightest interference. as they regarded
it, of the holy father. Hence, there
grew up in his mind a feeling that what
was needed here was the bringing in
of a large number of foreign priests.
preferably French. who are popular in
Mexico, and more inbred with modern
ideas.
That the hostile tone of the clerical
organ here toward Americans was in
furious TO the church, was feeling
entertained by the papal delegate. who
regretted the provincial bitterness Of
tone which still exists and is likely to
bring about bad feeling between the
United States and Mexico, for the Mex
lean clerican press is fairly rabid as re-
CARDS American institutions Even
when Catholic bishops come here on
recreation they meet with only the most
perfunctOry and trivial courtesy on the
part of the Mexican prelates. with two
notable exceptions-Bishop Gallow of
Oaxaca and Bishop Monies de Oca, of
San Luis Potosi."

OPPOSITION TO SBARRETTI
MEETING AGAINST NEW BISHOP
POORLY ATTENDED.
Decided to Ask Bishop of Havana TO
Resign, In View of the Feeling
Among Cubans Against Him

Havana, March 11-Comparatively
few people attended today's meeting to
protest against the appointment Of Mgr.
Sbarrett to the bishopric of Havana
A committee of four, including Gen
eral Maxine Gomez, was appointed to
visit the bishop and to inform him re-
Spectfully of the wishes Of the Cuban
people. II Was argued that it would be
better TO take this course on the chance
that Mgr. Sharetti would express a vii
hngness TO resign. and thus to save the
work Of organizing s me forty sub-com-
mitteeS OF protest from the various
parts Of the diocese, as was originally
proposed
A resolution was offered advocating
that a protest be sent direct to the pope.
and that nothing further be done until
his answer had been received, but this
was negatived by a large majority. it
being argued that the movement might
grow cold were the agitation 10 be
dropped for six weeks, the time it was
estimated would be required to get a
reply from Rome.
A representative of the popular com
mittee of protest, who was present, said
general manifestations in opposition to
the appointment were about to be made
IN the provinces of Matanzas and Santa
Clara on the day after the landing of
Mgr. Sbaretti, bat that the letter which
General Gomez published in the Hav-
ana papers was telegraphed to many
towns and had the effect of lettering
the intending demonstration.
