SQUABBLE AT A BANQUET. SUPREMACY QUESTION DEBATED [Bt Elbotrio Tiwcr*aph—Ooptbioht) [United Pbebb Asbociation.] (Received 8.20 a.m.) Ottawa, April 17. When the Pope's name was placed at the head of a toast list at an influential Roman Catholic banquet, with the King's name second, the Hon. D. C. Cameron (Lieutenant-Governor of Manitoba), Mayor Deacon of Winnipeg, the Hon. C. J. Doherty, K.C. (Minister of Justice in the Canadian 'Ministry), and the Hon. Sir Edmond Koblin, K.C.M.G. (Premier of Manitoba), refused to attend.
Archbishop Langeyin, in proposing the Pope's health, declared that the Papacy was the most sublime Majesty in the world, for the Pope represented Jesus Christ. After much acrimonious debate, the banquet committee arranged to sing the National Anthem first, and then give the Pope's health, omitting the King's health. However, no one attended except the Mayor of Winnipeg. Archbishop Langevin, interviewed, declared that the Pope'was the first authority in the world and then came loyalty to the King.
