MINISTER COMBES UPHELD
IN POLICY OF SEPARATION OF
CHURCH AND STATE.
The Governments Course in the Mat
ter of the Rupture of Relations
Between France and the Vatican
ApprOved-M. CombeS Called Bri-
gand and n TheolOsiaE Who Had
Gone Astray-ExciIing Session OF
the Chamber OF Deputies.

Paris. October 22.-By a decisive
vote-325 to 237-the chamber OF dep
uties tonight approved the govern
ment's course in tn matter of the rup-
ture of diplomatic relations between
France and the vatican by the recall
of Ambassador Nisard. The vote was
taken after a boisterous session in the
course of which Deputy Baudry
dAsson called Prime Minister Combes
a brigand and was restrained with
difficulty from personally assaulting
the premier. In his speech NJ. Combes
replied to the criticism made during
the two days debate in the chamber.
He said the rupture Of relations De-
tween the vatican and France Shove
the impossibility Of continuing the
present concordat between the church
and the state. The vatican had sought
to discipline the bishop of Laval be-
fore an ecclesiastical court which the
French laws did not recognize. The
rovalists had charged the bishop with
frequenting a carmelite convent and
writing love letters to the members.
Christian charity, the premier said
ought to save and protect the bishop
against the royalist charges; but il
was evident that satan was continu-
ing in his work. This reference to
royalists brought on violent disorder,
Deputy Baudry d'Asson shouting 1.-THE
royalists are better than such a pri-
gand as YOU"
The ushers held back M. Baudry
dAsson as he sought to throw himself
upon the premier.
NJ. Combes, continuing, said Pope
Plus X. had seized upon the incident
of the bishop of Laval in order to dis
aVow the policy of Pope Leo. The
real reason for the persecution of The
bishop, he declared was that the lat
ter respected the laws of France and
refused to recognize the preponder-
ance of religious over civil power.
I'm the light of such incidents" :"
said the prime minister, the separation
Of church and state has become ine-
vitable. Those who advise a revision
Of the concordat are dupes who would
condemn the government to final hu-
initiation, 1 am in favor of a. free
church, but with the same freedom as
our old institutions have. In reality
it is the pope who wants Separatio
He wants to ensiave the state, as ne

replied to M. Combes declaring that
the premier was a theologian gone as
tray as a politician, Premier Combe S
large majority was vigorously ap.
plauded. The majority is larger than
that which the premier had at the las
session. which fact ensures the carry
ing out of the prime ministers policy
concerning the separation of church
and state.

THE DIVORCE QUESTION
BISHOPS WILL NOT ACCEPT THE
COMPROMISE.
The Issue Will be Taken Before the
Deputies This Week i'm an Effort to
Reach An Agreement That the
Bishops Will Concur In-Special
Forms Of Worship Granted for For
dgn Congregations.

Boston, Mass, October 22.-At the
close Of the fifteenth day OF the Epis-
copal general convention the house of
bishops and house of deputies were
still at variance on the question OF
marriage and divorce. The issue Will
be taken before the latter body next
week, for the third time during the
convention, the bishops having declin-
ed TO accept. without amendment, the
compromise measure adopted by tho
deputies on Thursday.
The amendment to the divorce canon
arigirally agreed upon by the bishops
forbade the remarriage of any ii-
vorced persons, the deputies declining
70 alte- the old canon which permit
ted the remarriage of the innocent per-
son in divorce for lnfidelity at any
time.
As q compromise the deputies later
by an almost unanimous vote, amend
ed the original canon so that the in
nocent person could not be remarked
in the church within one year, after
the divorce, the court records and
other satisfactory evidence to be laid
before the bishops to show that the
applicant was really innocent. The
amendment also exhonerated clergy
men from all censure should they de-
cline to perform the ceremony.
The house of bishops, today, by a
vote of 80 to %, amended the compro-
mise so that the bishops of a diocese
will not be required to issue a license
for the remarriage of the innocent
person, even should the court evi-
dence be satisfactory, but will be
merely called upon to declare in writ
ing that in his judgment the case of
the applicant conforms to the reQuir -
ments of the canon.
The bishops also amended the clause
referring to the admisthation of sac
raments. so that if any priest is i'm
doubt as to theirregularity of the mar
| riage of any person he shall refer the
case to the bishop. The compromi Sc
