The foreign office today issued a second and most categorical denial that It has made any reply of any sort re garding the Vatican's protest to the powers on the subject of the expulsion of Mgr. Montagnlnl. . , Against the solid opposition of the right the senate by 183 to a) votes today referred the supplementary church and state separa tion bill to the committee on the separation of church and. state. The vote Is consid ered, to have been a test and as Insuring the passage of the measure by a big ma jority. Feeling; at Vatican. ROME, Deo. St. Reports received by the Vatican say that the situation In the Oerman center party has improved and that the chances of Its nominees at the general elections have Increased rather than decreased. It Is added that an under standing with the Oerman government Is probable even before the elections. Aocoralng to advices received at the Vatican from Paris, a strong feeling of resentment exists In the Clemenceau cab inet against the minister of public instruc tion, M. Brland, a the result of hla reoent circular on the religious subject. In spite of the denials of the French gov. eunnent that It has made any reply re garding the Vatican's protest to the power on the subject of expulsion from France of Mkt. Montagnlnl, until recently secretary of the papal nunciature at Varl. the Vatt. can has been positively '.a formed that M. Plohga. the miniate of foreign affairs for Frunce, has made verbal statements in answer to this protest to several dlplo . matlo representatives at Parts, who tele graphed the minister's communication to their respective governments. According to the Vatican's authority, M. Plchon said that Mgr. Montagnlnl had no diplomatic standing, that the papers se questered at the nunciature were unimpor tant, the Important documents having been removed previously, and as the French gov ernment had not allowed the papal nuncio to correspond with the French bishops. much less could it permit Mgr. Montaglnl to do so. The Vatican now declares with authority that the statement that documents were removed from the nunciature before that building was searched Is unfounded and calculated to deceive, and avers that It did not emanate from the Vatican, but from the French government. The local press has published the sum mary which appeared In the Pari Matin of the statement Issued by Archbishop Ire land of St. Paul on the Tranco-Vatlcan conflict. This summary has not found fa vor with the Vatican authorities, as it blames the French clergy who are praised by the pope. The Osservatore Romano says this sum mary should be accepted with reserve as coming from an Infected source, and ex plains that the correspondent of the Matin In New York may have misunderstood the archbishop.
