The Copyright Question in Canada.

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec. 27.-Sir John Thomp-
son says the Canadian government has re-
ceived no communication from the British
colonial office on the subject of the copy
right question, except the transmission of
the views of the Society of Authors al
ready published. Lord Knutsford is of the
opinion that Canada has not the power to
legislate on foreign copyright, and it has
been agreed to confer the power upon her.
Sir John Thompson, however, has good
reasons for believing that during the pres
ent and next session the imperial parlia-
ment legislation comforting the power will
be planned. He is of the opinion that the
passage of the Simonds copyright bill
would not affect the Canadian question. as
that measure gives British authors domes-
tic copyright in the United States on con-
dition that the work is re set with Ameri-
can type and rebound in the United States
An order in council was passed by the
Canadian government some time ago ask
ing the colonial Office to withdraw Canada
from the Berne copyright convention.

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Cable
PARIS, Dec 27.-In an interview Nine.
Raffalovitch, the mother -in-law to William
O'Brien, said: 'Mr. O'Brien expected to
remain in America much longer for the
meetings he attended had revived interest
in the Irish cause and attracted large sums
of money to the Land league fund, but then
came this deplorable split among the Irish
leaders and O'Brien was constrained to re-
turn to France where he will have to re-
main some time. He has several affairs to
settle outside of this interview. 1t is prob
able he will discuss this grave question
with several of the Irish leaders but the
plan of an interview in which he will find
himself alone with Parnell has not been
suggested. Moreover, pending the arrival
of Parnell in Paris the announcement that
has been given in the papers that he is
coming to see Mr.. O'Brien should be con-
tradicted, because know OBrien has not
yet been notified directly or indirectly that
Parnell is really coming"

SOCIAL QUESTIONS.
The Pope is Preparing an En-
cyclical upon Them.
THE MISSION OF THE CHURCH
In Regard to Such Matters-Koch Commended
IN Paris-Popotf Says England Harbors
Russian Criminals

PARIS, Dec. 27.-Advices from Rome
state that the Pope has finished the draft
of his encyclical upon the social question.
His holiness has been working upon the
subject for over year and at his request
the most competent economists and bishops
OF different countries, including America,
have furnished memoranda The Pope
considers the question the greatest of the
present time. The encyclical will be the
browning act of the Pope's work in this
direction. The date of publication has not
yet been given but the Associated Press
correspondent is enabled to give the sub
stance of it now. The encyclical will re-
view and expound the whole question af-
fecting wage workers. The document will
comprise three parts. F'irst-His holiness
will develop the general principles upon
which social economy is founded and the
dominant idea of distributive justice which
should regulate the intercourse of men and
the spread of wealth. The Pope says dis
tribution and restorative justice is needed
to prevent misery and sweating on the one
side and exhOrbitant riches on the other.
The second part comprises the origin and
SAuo0 u 'lO PIOSOuI CouuItlOH VI Gue SUCldl
problem. On this point his holiness takes
new thesis, first developed in his encyc-
lical on socialism.
The third part contains the views of the
Pope regarding remedies beyond religious
and moral influence to be advocated. His
holiness expresses himself again in favor
of the Intervention by the state within the
limits previously set forth. He condemns
capitalism as now organized, and advo-
Gates more equitable and just distributisn
of riches. The Pope is convinced the pa
pacy should lead the present social and
democratic movement and will appeal to
all conservative forces and to Protestants
to aid in securing the safety of society.
The Pope's physician says his holiness
may live for some time yet as he has a
robust constitution and is suffering from
no infrmity.
