A Grent Irlun,nh.

Rome, April 6.--Before leaving Rome
tonight Ex-President Roosevelt had
reason to believe that a great triumph
was his because both the attitude Of
the Vatican towards him and the
statement of the Methodist, which he
had condemned, were repudiated by
the leading adherents of those two
institutions.
Abbot Lawrence Janssens, one OF
the most learned benedictincs. and Sec
Rotary OF the Congregation Of the AZ
fairs OF Religion, called on Mr. Roose-
Welt this evening, and not finding him
left his card, on which he wrote in
French that he desired to congratulate
him for the constant support given 10
his order and the Catholic Church in
general in America during Mr.. Roose-
Selts glorious career as President
which he hoped would soon be re-
sumed.
Contemporaneously. Mr. Roosevelt
received letters from relatives of high
l1selates and Eardinals, condemn!ng
what they styled the personal atti-
tude Of Cardinal Merry Del Val. for
which neither the Pope nor the Cath
Ole Church was responsible,
MI. Roosevelt received the follow
ing letter from DR. Walling Clark,
head of the Methodist organization in
italy.
THE incident connected with tho
article written by Rev Il. M. Triple
for tho American press has caused
mo untold regret. Let me assure you
that the Methodists of Rome were not
responsible for tho article. Allow mo
once more 10 eNpross my admiration
