WASHINGTON, March S.— There is a
movement an foot for a radical revis
ion of the rules of the house, and pta"
erularly enough, it comes from Repub
licans almost exclusively. Many lead
ers, who have no personal animosity
to Speaker Reed, have come to the
• elusion that the rules must be re
vised »v' *s to curb the power of the
speaker.
These ruins of the house work ad
mirably to expedite all business to
which the speaker gives his sanction,
but they work quite as well to prevent
consideration entirely of all measures
t,, which he is opposed. Under the
present system the committee on rules
is allpdwerful, and no member can
( i anything- before the house without
the permission of that little coterie.
The sneaker appoints this committee
as well as others, and hence he can
prevent consideration of any measure.
us he did i» the case. of the Nicaragua
canal and Hawaiian annexation bills.
The movement now on foot is to se
cure i modification of the system in
such a way as to allow speedy action
and i" secure consideration, whether
the speaker is favorable or not. The
favorite plan now is to have the com
mittee on rules appointed by the cau
cus, and Mr. Reed will be notified that,
If he expects to be speaker of the next
house he must yield something to the
rank and file, and that something Is
more than likely to be the committee
on rules. .
Quite a number of members have
announced their intention of insisting
on some curb on the great personal
power of the speaker before voting for
him They recognize Mr. Reed's domi
nant ability as a parliamentarian but
they are determined that he shall not
any longer stand in the way of meas
ures desired both by the administration
and by a large majority of the Repub
licans" in the house.

During the past tew weeks three bishops of
the Episcopal church have visited St. Paul,
and delivered public lectures ou points of re
ligious controversy. Bishop 3e»Hums, of
Louisiana, taking for the subject of his dis
course the work of Wycliffe, went con
siderably out of hia way to ca3t doubt upon
a fact now universally admitted by scholars,
be they Catholic, Protestant, or infidel, name
ly, that St. Peter founded the see of Rome
and was put to death in the Eternal City.
Bishop Seymour, of Illinois, followed, and
in a lecture ou "Cranmer," aimed at under
mining a belief which is as well founded in
Scripture as is any doctrine of the Catholic
faith and which for fifteen centuries was re
garded as a precious heritage of the Chris
tian church— the primacy of the Roman pon
tiff.
Last night Bishop Tuttle, of Missouri, con
tinued the campaign, and taking for his
theme, "Hooker and the Post Reformation
Period," committed himself to two startling
statements:
(1) That the Roman church is an offshoot
of the Church of England, and (2), that the
bishops of the Catholic church cannot be
loyal American citizens.
In common with all who defend the Epis
copal position, Bishop Tuttle maintains that
during the five centuries which preceded the
mission of St. Augustine the Church of Eng
land was independent of the Church of
Rome. Despite the scantiness of historical
documents which have survived those trou
blous times, we are in possession of facts
which prove that the Church of England was
from the beginning under the jurisdiction of
the Church of Rome.
In the year 314 the bishops of London, York
and Lincoln represented the English church
at the council of Aries. The acts of this
council were forwarded to Rome, together
with a letter signed by the bishops. They
hail the Roman pontiff as "the most beloved
Pope Sylvester," salute him "with the rever
ence due" to him, regret his absence, and
add that had he been present "their sen
tence would have been more severe and their
assembly more rejoiced." They requeßt him
to "make our decisions known to all, the
decisions which we have written down." How
natural it was for the bishops to submit to
the pope the acts of their council may be
inferred from the testimony which their letter
bore — that "the apostles continued to sit" in
the see of Rome. If, then, 283 years before
St. Augustine set foot on English soil, the
leading blphops of England acknowledged that
the apostles continued to rule in the see of
Rome, and submitted their decrees to the
Roman pontiff, they were as little independent
of Rome as the American bishops of today,
who recognize in Leo the successor of St.
Peter and submit to him the decrees of their
plenary councils.
Again, Prosper tells us that when the
Pelagian heresy broke out "Pope Celestine
sent Uermanus, bishop of Auzerre, to restor*
the Britons to the Catholic faith." This was
early in the fourth century. A few years
later, as the tame chronicler writes. Pope
Celestine despatched to Ireland Palladius,
the Roman deacon, to be the first bishop
of that island, and thus enlarged the terri
tory of Christianity in Britain and the ad
jacent countries.
But i£ early in the fourth century the Ro
man pontiff was taking measures to guard
the Catholic faith in England against the In
fection of heresy and to secure the spread of
Christianity to the adjacent countries, there
is surely no foundation for the assertion of
an Episcopalian bishop that the Church of
England, was, in its inception, without the
pale of Roman jurisdiction. Indeed, it is
satisfactorily established that the British
bishops themselves acknowledged the author
ity of St. Augustine, and whatever oppQsi
tion was shown to the Roman missionary was
dictated— as may be inferred from Gildaa
the historian— by an unwillingness to submit
to the reforming measure which St. Augus
tine proceeded to enforce. These and other
historical arguments of equal value Bishop
Tuttle should dispose of in a scholarly man
ner before he again ventures upon the as
tounding statement that the Church of Rome
is an offshoot of the Church of England.
Not less astounding is Bishop Tuttle's state
ment that. "There are scores of churches in
America, and some whose bishops who can
not be true Americans, because they owe
their first allegiance to a pontiff in a foreign
land."
Obviously this attack Is leveled against the
Catholic church. Students of history are
aware that the Catholic church always stood
for human liberty. Dean Church, whose au
thority in this matter Bishop Tuttle will be
the first to recognize, says that the ministers
of the churr-h, in the middle ages were "rep
resentatives," not of religion only and the
claims of God, but of moral order, of the
rights of conscience and the sympathies of
men, of the bonds of authority of human so
ciety—the only trusted guides' of life." Is it
not one of the plainest facts of history that
Catholic prelates frequently exerted " their
powerful influence towards wresting from ty
rannical inonarchs charters of liberty for the
people?
Father Me-Nulty then quoted authori
ties on the position of the Catholic
church and the cause of liberty in all
ages, and concluded as follows:
After all the insinuation of disloyalty comes
with bad grace from one whose church seema
to have been hampered, to say the least by
foreign allegiance. It ili becomes an Episco
pal bishop to Journey to a city like St. Paul
noted for religious harmony, and to seek to
revive a spirit of distrust by bending the
facts of history and to outdo the ignorant
A-P-Aists by linking Catholics with commu
nists.
