Troops.

Paris, Dec. lS.-Cdrulndl fSlcnarQ,
archbishop of Paris, Monday volun-
tarily vacated the Episcopal palace
and temporarily accepted the hos
pitality of Denys Cochin, the conserv-
alive deputy, at the latters residence
in the Rue de Babylone. The de-
parture of the prelate was the occa-
sion for an imposing manifestation on
the part of the majority of the bish-
ops and priests of Paris. Many mem
bers of the nobility and about 5000
men, women and children. The gath
ering completely blocked the street
In front of the Episcopal palace, and
those present sang the Credo and 9TH
er articles as the cardinal was as
sisted into his carriage by the coad-
tutor bishop, Mgr. Annette, and his
two vicar generals. The crowd knelt
and chanted as the cardinal seated
himself in the vehicle. The veneer
able prelate was much affected, then
arose and blessed the multitude.
Cheer for Pope and Cardinal.
A number of young Catholics there
upon approached the carriage, de-
tached the horses, and with difficulty
dragged it through the dense masses
of people lining the streets. On all
sides were heard cries of Long live
Plus X" and Long live the cardi-
nal" About three-quarters OF an
hour were consumed in pulling the
carriage from the palace to the resi-
dence of M. Cochin, a distance of
about one mile. Detachments of
mounted republican guards preceded
and followed the procession in order
to prevent any possible disorder, but
there was not the slightest attempt
on the part of the crowds to make
any counter manifestation.
The clerical crowd subsequently
followed Mgr Annette to the church
of st. Francis Xavier, where the CO.
adjutor celebrated a benediction serv-
ice at the end of which he thanked
those present for the sentiments they
had manifested and exhorted them to
persevere in their attitude in de-
tense of the rights of the church.
Riot Sunday Night.
Rome, Dec. 17.-Thousands of DEM
onstrators friendly to France and of
anti-Vatican tendencies gathered Sun
day night in the Piazza adjoining the
Farnese palace, the seat of the French
embassy, in an endeavor to express
their pleasure at Frances action to-
ward the church.
The whole garrison of Rome was
employed to face the demonstrants
and protect the Vatican, which was
surrounded by cavalry, and the
bridges leading to the apostolic pal
ace were barred by troops. All the
streets leading to the palace Farnese
were protected by soldiers with fixed
bayonets.
The demonstrators, led by dozen
radical socialists and republican mem
bers of the chamber of deputies, in
Guiding Prince Borghese, after vainly
attempting to break the Gordon, pro-
vided themselves with candles and
formed into mock procession, lnton-
Ing the Miserere, as an indication of
the death of clericalism, amidst cries
of Long live France!" Long live
Clemenceau!" and Down with the
Vatican!"
Fresh attempts were then made to
beat back the Gordon and the cavalry
charged the demonstrators, few Of
whom were slightly injured and sew
eral arrested. Amid roars and shouts
and the singing of the Marseillaise
the ferment continued until late in
the evening.
