Arises From the Order TO Destroy the
Rabelnis Pictures.
PARIS, Nov. 1.-THE seizure by the
police Of number Of paintings illus
trating the works OF Rabelais at an art
gallery in Pail Mall, London, is likely to
resolve itself into an international que..
ton. The English court, it will be re.
membered, decided that twenty.one Of
the seized paintings were immoral, and
ordered that they be destroyed. French
citizens have interest in the paintings
and the facts in connection with then
seizure and condemnation were laid
before the French Government, which
will endeavor to prevent, through diplo
matte channels, the order OF the English
court for the destruction Of the painting
from being carried out.
