The con- without a dissenting voice, adopted the following: The third Eucharistic Congress of the Unit- ed States, having in view recent events in France affecting religion and liberty, decides to put itself on record by the following resolu- tions: First—We tender our holy Father, Pope Plus X, our reverential recognition and pro- found admiration of his apostolic stand In favor of true human liberty and essential hu- man rights as against the behests and threats of an infidel faction that has for the time once-Catholic pation and a sister republic. Second—We, the children of the church and loyal ministers and dispensers of her min- istries, sympathize Qeeply with our much- tried brethren across the water, whose glori~ ous record for 8o long has been “‘gesta del per Frances,’ and we assure her bishops, priests and people that we are heart and soul with them in their battle for right, truth and civilization. Third—We condemn With all the emphasis which not only the dictates of the natural law, but the instincts moreover of Catholic faith itseif, put upon the action of a clique inspired by the secret socleties in exiling and persecut- Ing the religious orders and communities of men and women, Whose only crime was they had made a sacrifice of their whole selves, their belongings, their faculties and their very lives to the Interests of charity, ef education and of the commonwealth of their native jand.

The Governor informed the State Department that the judgment against Third Secretary Gurney of the British Embassy has been vacated and the fines imposed remitted. He says that Judge Phelps had expressed regret to the secretary by letter, a copy of which he forwarded together with a state- ment by Judge Phelps. Governor Bates suggests that the attention of the Brit- ish Embassador be called to the breach of the laws of Massachusetts under the belicf that the Embassador will take such action as the case may demand. The Governor also expresses regret that want of knowledge of the law has resuited in an error of judicial author- ity in Massachusetts, and expresses the hope that the statement of regret by Judge Phelps may be recognized as a conclusive disapproval of any inten- tion of Massachusetts courts to ignore international law. The statement of Justice Phelps is an elaboration of the facts in the case briefly set forth in the letter of Gov- ernor Bates to the State Department. The statements made by Gurney be- fore the court, Justice Phelps says, were of such character as to appear to be a manifest and intentional defiance of judicial authority and to be, as he believed and found, in contempt of court. He proceeded, he said, in ignor- ance of the usages of international daw and of the provision of the Federal statutes, the question never before having come before the court, nor was it so presented to him as to advise him of his error in the premises. The ac- tion of the court, Justice Phelps de- clares, was inspired wholly and abso- lutely by a purpose to enforce the law, and for the protection of human lite endangered by the conduct of Gurney as established by the evidence present- ed to him. e letter of Judge Phelps 1o Third Secretary Gurney follows: LEE, Mass., Sept. 28, 1904. Hon,_ Hugh Gurney, Third Secretary to His Britannic Majesty, Lenox, Masa—Sir: As Justice of the Lee Police Court, I find occa- sion to express my profound ' regret ' th through a misapprehension of the law, I a sumed that the court had jurisdiction over the person of a member of the Embassy of the British Government. Having become ap- prised of this error and eeeking to make all possible reparation therefor, the court has va- cated and annulied all proceedings taken in ! the matter of the complaint against yourself | and the erroneous gment entered thereon. | 1 beg further to express my profound per- sonal regret that I shduld have been, without intentional error, the cause of your own per- sonal vexation and annoyance, or that anything | should have occurred which may have seemed to be, though not 5o in fact, a want of respect for the rignts of a representative of the gov- ernment of his Britannic Majesty. Respect- tully, HENRY C. PH. Justice of the Lee Court. WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.—Governor Bates’ report, as published, was re- ceived at the State Department this: afternoon and was immediately given | a careful perusal by the officials. | It was found scarcely to meet the needs of the department, because it does not set out the details of the Lea affair, which are required to make out a legal presentation of the case. There- fore the department has decided to await the report which is expected to be forthcoming in the of Department of a day or two. When the Governor’s letter is thus supplemented the State Department will prepare a communica- tion to the British Embassador, em- bodying therein only so much of Gov- ernor Bates' report as it may deem expedient. This will be in the nature of a reply to the complaint made by Mr. Raikes, the* British Secretary of Embassy, and while expressing regret at the occurrence, will present a sober statement of facts and the testimony adduced to show that Secretary Gur- ney did late the local laws. LENOX, Mass., Sept. 29.—Sir Mort1- mer Durand, the British Embassador, said te-night that he had not received from Washington the communication sent to the State Department by Gov- ernor Bates concerning the Gurney case. The Embassador declined to make any statement or comment on the matter in the absence of the official correspondence. He expects to receive the documents to-morrow morning, at which time he will probably give out a statement. ———————— Cruiser Baltimore Passes Messina.
