FRANCE AND THE VATICAN.
Efforts to Be Made to Put Them on Bette,
Terms.

PARIs. Feb. 1s.-In order to stop the friction
between France and the Vatican due to the re-
fusal of Cardinal Richard, archbishop OF
Paris, to communicate to tho French bishops
the letter written to him by the pope. in which
his holiness enjoins the French p-elates to give
their adhesion to the republic, Cardinal RAM
pOlla, papal secretary of state, has notified the
French government that the papal nuncio at
Paris has been instructed to distribute copies of
the popes letter to the bishops.
Cardinal Richard, in replying to this letter.
declared that lie was unable to communicate its
contents to the bishops. for he did not believe
the time opportune D do so. 1t was charged
ut the Vatican that the cardinals action in
refusing the pope's request to make the letter
public was due to the influence of the roy
alists. 1t was stated IN Paris at the time the
fifty royalist members of the chamber Of dep
uties had threatened to resign if the letter was
published. 1t is believed that Cardinal Ram
polla's course in having the letter sent to the
bishops despite the objections of Cardinal
Richards will do away with whatever feeling
may have been Occasioned by the latter's
refusal to let the pope's conciliatOry attitude
be generally known.

THE CORPORATION r1sH wHARY.
The city fish wharf is TO be. rented at auction
on the 9th Of February by the city committee
on public property. This wharf carries with il
the monopoly of landing fish and of cutting
and curing them. The fish wharf was first
located on the southeast Of the city, but
as the prevailing winds of the season
were usually from the south the odors per-
meated the town with ''an ancient and fishlikt
smell" and the city put the fish business upo-.
the county wharf at the north of the harbor. SO
that the winds carried the perfume toward Wash
ington but lost it before il got there. The county
wharf was for two generations protected in its
privileges by score of corporation enactments.
Its annual rental, which was once as high as
S5,OOO for three months. is now but little more
than cne-tenth OF that sum per annum. The
prospects OF the fisheries do not promise much
competition for the wharf this year.

Medals for Merit.

Maj. Gen. Schofield has given instructions
that medals Of honor should be awarded to
officers or enlisted men for distinguished
bravery in action. while certificates of merit
should, under the law, be awarded for
distinguished service, whether in action
or otherwise, of valuable character to the
United States, as, for example. extraordinary
exertion in the preservation of human
life. or in the preservation of public
property. o. rescuing public property from
destruction by fire or otherwise, or any
hazardous service by which the government is
saved loss in men or material. Simple hero
ism in battle, on the contrary, is fifty re-

act OF heroism may not have resulted in any
benefit to the United States. Where the
conduct of an enlisted man, non-commissioned
officer or private, has been represented to,merit
recommendation may be made for both, either
simultaneously or at different times.

Companies and the Western Union Telegraph
Company for failure to operate their telegraph
