feelings of gratitude that in his own land
there is not merely complete liberation,
but the heartiest good will and sympathy
between sincere and honest men of differ
ent faiths-good will and sympathy so
complete that in the innumerable daily
relations of our American life Catholics
and Protestants meet together and work
together without thought of the differ
ence of creed being even present in their
minds.
This is a condition so vital to our ma
tional well being that nothing should be
permitted to jeopardize- it. Bitter com
nent and criticism. acrimonious attack
and defense. are not only profitless but
harmful, and to seize upon such an Incl
dent as this as an occasion for contro-
versy would be wholly indefensible and
should be frowned upon by Catholics and
Protestants alike, and all good Amer
leans"
The failure to arrange an audience be-
tween ex-President Roosevelt and the
Pope, which was known only in certain
circles today, is expected to create a
tremendous stir here as well as abroad,
far overshadowing the importance of the
Incident in which Mr.. Fairbanks was a
principal Although the negotiations were
technically between Ambassador Leish-
man and Mgr Kennedy it is we'll under
acting under the instructions of Car
dinal Merry Del Val. The kilograms, there
fore, were in reality between Mr.. Roose-
Welt and the papal secretary of state.
When the correspondent called at the
Vatican this evening great surprise was
expressed when it was learned that Mr..
Roosevelt had given out the text of the
messages exchanged between Mgr. Ken
needy and the American ambassador as
they were regarded by the Vatican in the
light of Diplomatic documents.
Manager Kennedy explained that on
March 81, John W. Garrett, first sec
rotary of the embassy, called upon him
to transmit Mr.. Roosevelt's request
for an audience with the pontiff on
April 5. He said that Mr. Garrett in
sisted upon the word transmit" Mgr.
Kennedy informed the secretary that he
would Immediately present the request
to the proper vatican authorities and
promised a response as soon as possible

Kennedy, Il was auth orized to send Mr.
Roosevelt the first message which is
quoted in his statement. The reference
to the Fairbanks incident in the mes
sage was intended by the vatican only
as a friendly intimation 1 notice that
my second message is not fully given.
1t ran thus:
His holiness will be much pleased
to grant an audience to Mr.. Roosevelt,
for whom he entertains great esteem,

GERMANS FIGURE
IN LITTLE MIDDLE

Berlin, April 3.-(Special) 1.-The action of
the German gunboat Sperber in taking
part in the Liberian uprising has attract
ed considerable attention in Berlin, where
questions as to the relations of America
and other powers to the negro republic
are under discussion.
The government has authorized a state
ment denying that the Sperber interviewed
forcibly and declaring that the incident
was a trivial one ANYWAY.
Since the announcement of America s
proposed policy with reference to Liberia,
there has been much vigorous criticism
of the United States from the conserva-
tive organs, which declare that Germany
must not forget that its interest in Africa
entitle 1t to voice in the matter.
