Wod was passed to NJ. Grousseau. who
mounted the tribune amid the keenest at
tention. He said he wished to question
the president OF the council regarding the
search OF the nunciature. lie added:
You have. M. Clemenceau, written ad-
mirabie pages against arbitrary search,
yet you have seized diplomatic documents
in a dwelling that was formerly covered

motive7 find your reason In the minis

lawfulness and illegality rather than In
your passing the text OF one law into an
other. We Catholics do not play politics
but defend the liberty OF our religion. The
president OF the council has done gravely
in striking where he thought 10 strike the

Paris. Dec. 12-Premier Clemenceau yes
tcrday ordered the arrest and the expul-
sion from France OF Mgr. Montagnini, sec
retary of the papal nunciature here SINCE
the recall OF the nuncio. The home OF
Mgr. Montagnini was searched by the
police.
Formal notice was served on Cardinal
Richard. archbishop OF Paris, and the
bishops and parish priests OF this depart
ment that they must leave their homes to-
day. The Clerical party is beside itself
with rage at the firm attitude OF the gov
eminent, and has evidently become fully
aroused TO a realization that the program
as announced is not to be deviated from,
regardless OF consequences.
BY the expulsion of Mgr. Montagnini
Q legal bond which practically for 1000 un-
interrupted years has united church and
state is broken. BY refusing to make the
required declaration under the public
meeting law OF 1881, public Catholic wor-
ship except by schismauc organizations
today becomes illegal
Premier Clemenceau replying to a ques-
tion I'm the chamber OF deputies last night
rs TO the reason for the expulsion OF Mgr.
Montagnini said NJ was because of his
completely with prominent clergymen Of
Paris, against whom proceedings were
pending for melting churchgoers to re-
bellion.
Interference by foreigners on orders
from Rome In the politics of France. he
declared, was not permissible. The pre-
mier amid thunders OF applause. tersely
summed up the situation, declaring that
the governments conciliatory PROPOSE
tions toward the church had been ex-
hausted. and that IL had been decided In
future 10 leave the onus on Rome.
''If the church wishes" the premier
continued, 'there is still time to avoid
a battle. We offer her the law of 1881.
made for all Frenchmen. and submit
ting thereto she will have peace, but
otherwise, by seeking us. she will find
us"
Mr. Clemenceau's exposition I'm the
chamber OF the governments intentions
10 respond TO what IL considered the first
act of war was brought out by a question
asked by Mr.. Groussau, deputy for Lille.
who is professor OF law in the Catholic
university there.
When the officers searched the home OF
Mgr. Montagnini. the monsignor appealed
10 the Italian embassy for protection as
an italian subject The news spread
quickly. and Mr.. Grossau announced that
he would bring the matter up in the
