Archbishop Ledochowskl was arrested on
the Sd, by order of the German Government,
and sent to Ostrowo, in the province of Posen,
there to be imprisoned in accordance with the
sentence of the court. His offense consists
in having, in the first place, refused to
pay any heed to the laws passed last
May placing the ecclesiastics of Germany
under the regulation of the State. This DISC
bedience subjected him to fine, and his refusal
to pay the fine brought upon him the confsca-
tion of all his property except his household
goods. In all these proceedings he was upheld
by the Pope, whom alone he recognized as his
superior. Finally the summons came for his
resignation of the Archbishopric, and this he,
still acting under the orders of his Papal
chief, also declined to give.
