PROTEST TO VATICAN.
Frances Objections to the Pope's
Recent Utterdnces.

Paris. March 26.-The protest which the
French government submitted 70 the Vatican
against the recent utterances Of the Pope
against France was not IN the form OF off,
cial note. but was a verbal protest by NJ.
Nisard. the Ambassador OF France at the Vati-
can. TO the PapaI Secretary OF State Merry
del Val. It was. 10 IS said. substantially fol-
lows:
The discourse BY the Holy Father on the
occasion Of the Feast Of st. Joseph constitutes
a public criticism upon the policy OF France.
This criticism IS chiefly unacceptable. IN being
contrary TO the scipulatiOus Of the COncOrdat
which regulates the relations between the Holy
See and France. For this reason the French
government deems it to be it, duty formally to
protest TO his eminenCe the Cardinal Secretary
OF State against these allegations, which II ad-
mits neither IN substance nor in form.
Information reaching government quarters
shows that the members of the Sacred College
are much divided over the POpe's utterances.
some regarding them as most unwise and IN
called for 1t also appears that the cardinals
were completely taken By surprise. as the
POntir had not given any intimatton OF his IN
tentiOn to c-iticise France. Only Few days
before he received a delegation OF French pill
grimS.
T-he incident Is regarded as showing the new
Popes tendency to carry out his personal ideas,
