THE TRIAL OF CANON BERNARD.-A cable tele-
gram from Tourney, Belgium, says: In the trial
of Canon Bernard. who Is charged With abstract
Ing papers and securities representing several
millions OF francs from the episcopal palace of the
OceSe OF Tourney, counsel for the defendant de-
clared that his client had q document from the
Pope which empowered him to take the measures
he deemed best to conceal the treasure. He could
not have supposed that such an order meant that
he was only to conceal It in Tourney. Canon Ber-
nard, he said, had been made q scapegoat for
Bishop ROusseaux who had written to him while
he was in New York virtually ordering him to
continue to conceal the funds Bishop ROusseaux
believed that he could avoid meeting the claims In
court Of Mgr. DumOnt, the former bishop OF the
diocese, by sending the funds beyond the reach Of
the judicial power. II he had been successful, he
would have tndemnif1e1 Canon Bernard, who had
merely attempted an evasion OF the civil law, and
had not committed criminal offense. The case
has caused a very painful feeling in religious
circles
