By Associated Press.

ROME, April 5.-The chief ma
terlal development of the Roosevelt
vatican incident was Roosevelt's re-
pudiation of the attempt of the
Methodist organization here to in
terpret his action as an endorse
ment of their work. This repudia-
tion took the form of calling off
the reception to the members of
the American colony which was to
have been held tomorrow night at
the embassy, and resulted directly
from the issuance of a statement
yesterday by Rev. Tipple, pastor of
the American Methodist church, in
which he severely arraigned the
:. Roman Catholic church. Roosevelt
continues to depreciate, in the most
vigorous fashion. the fierce religious
tumult caused by the incident,
which he regards as personal to
himself. When the vatican state
ment, likening the situation to
what might occur in Germany if
he visited the Polish Separatists af-
ter seeing the emperor, was called
to Roosevelt's attention, he said:
"If the German emperor would
place as condition to the audi
ence that I shouldn't see the Poles,
| would make similar reply. Up
on that condition | shall be compel
led to forego the pleasure of the
audience"
The phase of the situation at
tracing more and more attention
here is the open disapproval of the
vatican's action by numerous Cath
olics, Including laymen and even
some cardinals. The responsibility
is generally placed upon the should
ers of Cardinal Merry Lei Val, the
papal secretary of state.
Merry Del Walls father, formerly
ambassador to the vatican and
who is now in Rome, who often
complained, haughtily, of the boast
full attitude of the United States in
the days of Spain's defeat, said to
friend: 1T seems providential
that my son should be the man to
humble the Yankee president.
King Victor Emanuel visited
Roosevelt this morning and follow
ing chat, they motored to the
