PARIS, Dec. I7.-There was an impressive
scene to-day when the venerable Cardinal
archbishop Of Paris torsook under COM
mission the a~rchiepiscopal palace to take
mn his domicile in the home Of a dis
,rguished parishioner, Deputy Denys
cochin. at So Rue de !Babylone. His
derarture was an expulsion, a favorits

lent france as being in a turmoil over
rho .ena ration of Church and State. only
N rho sense that orderly obedience to the
law Of the land may be termed expulsion,
whom one under the law is obliged to quit
any premises.
The greatest consideration was shown
hy the public authorities not only for the
sgsd Prince Of the Church himself and his
en.ourage but for the susc~eptibilities OF
catholics generally, who turned out in
hundreds 10 manifest devotion TO him
and LOYALTY 10 their religion.
In all truth il cannot be said that any
care was taken by the Church to make
the CARDINALS departure a modest event
calculated TO attract the least possible
rublc attention to an ignomln ious neces-
XIV. on the contrary Mgr. Annette, Coad-
tutor Archbishop Of Paris, announced
n. the service at which he officiated yester-
day that Cardinal Richard would leave
tho palace to-day, and the hour of his de-
rsrture was published in the newspapers.
Demonstrative Catholics fastened TO in

,ng n form an honorary escort for the
Cardinal. Before noon they began to
Gather at the palace. Their presence at
fracted A c1irious crowd outside the gates
and in the neighboring streets. There
were hundreds altogether, but there were
no such numbers as are attracted by an
important political meeting in New York.
The police. mounted and on foot, were
uassed in the immediate neighborhood and
m the Boulevard DIES Invalides around the
corner. hut scarcely a policeman could be
icon near the palace itself. The crowds
we're evidently composed entirely of the
faithful, or if opponents were there they
were 30 mild that there was not the slightest
interference or the slightest taunt from
them.

thizers. after the Cardinal was safely housed

them before and after services in st. Fran

the Cardinals entry into VI. Cochin's house.
It. was only after this service that my

prevented this, and Mgr. Annette drove
oT toward his own home at a trot. The
crowd. still anxious to show their SYM
pathy. attempted to bar his way, but the
police kept the street clear. Five men who
cried out against Prime Minister Clemen-
ceau we're arrested. 1t is not expected that
these prisoners will be held.
The circumstances Of the Cardinals
change of residence were picturesque if
not spectacular. During the morning every
entry 10 the palace was guarded by young
members of the Garde du Sacre Cdur,
no allowed no one to enter the court
yard whom they did not know or who was
rot the bearer of aIcard that entitled him
10 admission.
Presently a carriage appeared and drove
up to the door. Able Clement came TO the
door and announced hat the Cardinal
would not be ready TO leave for an hour
and a half.
4 woman who was standing on the steps
leading up to the door raised the hymn,
Nous Voulons Dieu." Only a few persons,
mostly women, joined in the hymn, with
wavering voices, which soon died away.
Then. with sonorous voices, priests chanted
the Credo. all ~uncovering. When the Homo
i4cms est" was reached the woman raised
IN high a large crucihx and every one
knelt.
Other chants follow ed, when suddenly the
windows on the ground hoor of the palace
we're thrown open and priests sprang into
the COURTYARD. The door was then opened
and the Cardinal emerged and entered the
waiting carriage.
On the way from the palace to NJ. Cochin's
residence a detachment of mounted guards
followed the procession, but did not hurry
II. NJ. Lepine, Project of Police, was on
hand, hut there was no occasion for him to
give any order, although a number of
Apaches. or roughs. mingled with the
crowd en- route and repeatedly shouted

dinall' and Long live the PopeH
At ST. Francis Xavier's Church, where
Mgr. Annette thanked the people in Cardinal
Richards name for the unforgettable testi-
mony Of their respect, the people shouted,
'vive Mo~nseigneurl" and -Vive Disu!'
The crowds dispersed as quietly as they
had assembled. and this solemn episode in
The history Of Church and State in France
ended as it began, with the public peace of
PARIS unrufied.
The seventeenth century palace. which
the Church possessed only since the Second
Umpire, now passes to the State n will
probably become the Ministry OF Labor.
