While Mr.. Rayner was speaking he
was interrupted by Senator Warren
chairmaas.of the committee on military
affairs, but declined to yield. and in re-
taliatiOn Mr.. Warren objected to the
further cOnsiderat alton of the resolu-
ton by Mr.. Rayner. A parliamentary
question having been raised as to the
right of the senator from Maryland to
proceed. the vice president declared
that the motion to consider the TesO-
luton would have to lie over until to-
morrow except by unanimous consent
Mr.. Warren finally withdrew his OBJ
lection, upon being assured that he
could ask such questions as he de-
sired.
Mr.. Warren declared, that as chair
man of the committee on military af-
fairs, he had done everything possible
to secure information concerning the
art. He said he did not object to the
sarcastic remarks from the senator
from Maryland
Mr.. Rayner continued, saying he was
satisfied there would be no report on
his resolution by the combine before
He finally offered a
modified resolution authorizing and
requesting the president to proceed
with the inquiry, to which Mr.. Lodge
objected, and it went over until to-
morrow. He also moved to discharge
the committee from further cOnsidera-
ton of the original resolution. but the
motion was not acted upon.

BARoN ALIoTTTs RECALL.

King Victor Emmanuel and his Minister Of For

nary course of suddenly relieving Baron Aliotu

recalling him to Rome in spite of the fact that the
italian Enthusiastically the banks OF the

charge d. daffaires instead OF Alott although the
latter. having been stationed IN Paris for couple
of wears past might naturally be supposed to be
better qualified than Don Mario to carry on the
work Of Count TornielH until the appointment of
new ambassador. Speculation is rife to the
cause of the recall of Aliotti. and among other
reasons given by gossip is the dispeasure excited
at Rome by the manner In which his name was
connected with the unsavory Hart-McKee divorce
case in Paris.

MISSIONARIES DEPRIVED OF RANK.

China's old Empress Dowager. in conjunction
with her nephew and adopted son. the Emperor,
has by-the-bye just repealed the decree OF 1893
granting official rank to the Roman Cathohc
hierarchy in China BY virtue OF that edlct the
forty-six bishops received the rank of viceroy
while twelve hundred Roman Catholic mis-
sionary priests were given the rank of prefects
Now the Chinese government itself has only nine
native vceroys, and some of the Catholic blsh-
ops not only adopted the insignia Of viceroy but
cndeavored to exercise viceregal authority. con-
fusion and awkward contretemps ensued. Indeed
il Is with the appreciation Of the heads OF the
Catholic Church in China that the decree has been
repealed and in spite of the fact that 1t deprives
them of all their official prerogatives and honors
and It is interesting in this connection to recall
that when the question was raised in 1899 as to
whether the Protestant missionary bishops tr
China net entitled TO analogous rank under
the favored nation treatment clause Of the
treaties with China the Protestant bishops and
missionaries at a conference held at Shanghai for
the purpose of discussing the matter. decided
unanimously that would be inadvisable to accept
official rank from the Chinese government on the
ground that II undesirable ito complicate
their spiritual responsibilities by the assumption
of political rights and duties"
