PATTERSON
HAS BROKEN
AWAY

Washington. Feb. lin the senate yes
terday Mr.. Patterson strongly indorsed
the position of the president i'm Santo Do
mingo and in the matter of the Moroccan
conference.
He said that he was sorry 10 differ from
sis Democratic colleagues, but that no
felt II his duty to do so in these matters.
He also expressed absolute confidence
in the patriotism of the president and
in his good faith in announcing his de-
termination not 10 again be a candidate
for the presidency.
The remainder OF the session was de-
voted to a debate on the shipping bill
on motion OF Mr.. Gallinger the senate
yesterday decided to reconsider the vote
by which the bill authorizing the plac-
ing the models OF naval vessels in state
capitols was passed The motion was
antagoniNd by Mr. Hepburn.
Mr.. Tillman presented and asked inn
mediate consideration for a resolution re-
questlng the president TO send to the SEN
ate all OF the official correspondence with
the American minister to Santo Domingo
in 1904.
A WISE POLICY.
Mr.. Allison objected to present consld-
GRAFTON. and 1t went over to today.
Mr.. Patterson addressed the senate on
the Dominican and Moroccan questions,
sustaining the administration in its policy
on both subjects.
lie took the position that the basic
problem of the Algeciras conference is
commercial in it's nature. He said IL was
wise policy for this country to stand for
the open door In Morocco He foresaw no
complications with European powers.
On the Santo Domingo question he took
all the steps taken by the president who.
he said. had not transcended his authority
In preserving the status quo In the island
republic. He did not think that the pro-
ceedinRs I'm this case might become n
harmful precedent.
NO OCCASION FOR DIVISION.
Speaking of the Dominican question. he
said that It involved the Monroe Doc
trine And that there was no occasion for
division on party lines on that question.
lie said he confessed to a very friendly
feeling toward the president. due to the
record he had made as a statesman and
the republic. Much. however. as he liked
the president. he felt impelled TO differ
with him on many questions.
Regardless. however OF these differ
ences he believed the president 20 be
honest and patriotic I'm all things. Not
only had the president done much to anni-
hilate sectional preiudices but he had
done many things to commend him 10 the
Democrats.
II doubt" he said whether IL the
Democratic party had succeeded in elect
ing its candidate i'm 1894. we would find
him striving ~ earnestly. as zealously
and as fearlessly In sustaining the rights
OF all the people against those who unite
20 oppress the masses as Is the present
chief executive
He also commended the president for in
citing the merger suits and for his posi-
tion In support OF railway legislation,
which, he said. lis giving life to Demo-
cratic principle"
For three or four years" he added.
"the president had been carrying on
struggle with the money power. the like
OF which had not been known since the
DAYS OF Andrew Jackson.

situation Is Still Grave, and Vatican Has Mobilized All Forces to Take
 Part in Campaign.

Rome.-The Vatican authorities characterize the action of the French government in having Mgr. Montag- nini, the expelled papal secretary of the nunciature at Paris. accompanied oy the police, as being "an odious act snowing desire to infiict humiliation on those who, because of their weak ness, cannot retaliate."
 It is much regretted in Vatican circles that. contrary to the proposi. tons of some of the cardinals. Mgr. Deila Chiesa, the assistant papal sec retary Of state, was not sent to Paris alter the rupture of diplomatic rela- tions between the Vatican and France. as In view of his Francophile atti- Jude under the late Pope Leo he was the only person capable of reaching an understanding with the French government. It is believed even now that notwithstanding the gravity of the situation France would not find It dlfhcult to conciliate the Vati- can if negotiations on the subject were opened.
 In the meantime all the Vatican forces have been mobilized to take part in the campaign. Even Father Werenz, the general of the Jesuits, has joined the belligerents.
 The latest instructions sent to the French clergy are in substance that they are to look on the situation from it's various aspect and organize private religious services.
 Thousands of telegrams, 1t is an- pounced here, have been sent from Free Masons, anti-clericals, Repub- lican and Liberal clubs and politicians to the French premier, Nj. Clemen- ceau, and Minister of Public Worship Briand, congratulating them on their energetic attitude toward the Vatican and clericalism. On the other hand the Vatican authorities have received thousands of telegrams of sympathy and encouragement from bishops, Catholic clubs and prominent Cath olics, Italians and foreigners, con- demning the action of the French gov ernmeDt

 The resolution further requires Sec retary Taft to state when and where sach disturbances occurred, and to outline their character fully.
