Views of Bishop Cranston.

CINCINNATI. April 5.-Bishop Ear
Cranston of the Methodist Episcopal
Church comments sharply on the Vati-

significance of the Fairbanks episode.
he said. Mr. Roosevelt is not a Meth
odst, but his spirit of liberation is not
greater than that of Mr.. Fairbanks, a
Methodist.
I'm his administration as President,
many of his friends thought that Mr.
Roosevelt went beyond the limit of po-
litical prudence in trusting and honoring
Roman Catholics. but even he had to be
put under bonds in Rome 1t seems
that the Vatican accepts nothing short of
absolute submission. including the yield
ing up of ones social privileges and re-
iigious and patriotic fellowships.
1.-The introduction of the Methodist
Church in Rome as a feature In this
latest episode is gratuitous. Much as
they honor Mr.. Roosevelt, our people
there had no desire or purpose to en-
barraSs him by any invitation that would
have interfered with his wish to call on
the pope. We were sure that he would
not insult US in return for such cOnsid-
Grafton by submitting to the dictation of
our traducers, and he has not dlsappont-
ed us.
"Americanism is worth more to the
world than papal assumption, and 1t is
the spirit of Americans that is now again
put under ban by the pope. No honeyed
words for the public can change that
fact The Methodsts are not in this
case"

Legislators Decline to Talk.

Members of the Senate are reluctant
to discuss the incident in Rome in con
pection with the cancellation Of eX-
President Roosevelt's engagement TO

reply to questions put to senator's as
to their opinion of the attitude Of the

the effect that they do not care to dis

Senators have shown much interest in

National League. Apparently in
Unsolvable Tangle.
May BE That Neither Schedule
Will Be Adopted.
ARE IN A DEADLOCK.
Short and Long Season Each
Has Four Supporters.
Therefore Likely That There
will Be a Compromise.

New York. Feb. lit began to
look today like an all week session of
the National league. The solons of the
baseball organization have ben at log
gerheads for three days now over
the playing schedule and today were
apparently little nearer a solution of
their differences than when the ses-
sions here began.
One prediction from well informed
source before the magnates resumed
their debate today was that the sched-
ule announcement would not be made
before Monday next. The club presi-
dents took up proposed amendments
to the constitution and let the rival
schedule propositions simmer. 1t was
hoped by anxious fans. however, that
before night the league would get
down to the playing dates business
again and settle the dispute. The
leagues voting strength as the session
was resumed was understood to be
equally divided between the long and
the short schedule. President Brush
of New York is understood to have
been won over to the side of the 154
game season adherents. voting with
MeSSrS. Hermann, DreyfusS and Doyey
for the short season.
Against them for the 16S game
proposition are lined up Messrs. Eb
belts of Brooklyn, Murphy of Chicago.
Robson of st. Louis and Fogel of
Philadelphia
There were indications today that
neither of the schedules prepared in
advance would be adopted in its en-
tirety.
The Hermann -Brush-Dreyfuss side
is reported to have offered compromise
to the Murphy-Ebbetts faction, one
proposition to close the season a little
later than the short schedule now
provides for, allowing for games on
Columbus dav. October II.

and refused by him. That ended the
