TIE POPE COUNSELS LOYALTY.

HIS PACIFIC ADVICE TO FRIENDS OF TIE HOLY
SEE IN FRANCE.
Rome June 10-The "Osservatore Romano" pub
fishes to-day long note in which the Pope ex-
plains and defines his views with reference to
France The Pope disclans all intention of recon-
mondng any preference for either the republican
or the monarchical form Of government; but he
observes practice has shown that the interests or
religion In any country are best served by loyal
support Of the constituted government, and he
gently reproves ,those who, processing attachment
to the Holy See, the seeds Of ds;rust and
create difficulties by looking askance at or com
batting particular existing governments. Ihe ad-
vice OF His Holiness concludes thus: .
Moved by a constant affection for France ana IN
abiding hope that with the allayng Of passions
his word will be needed by all. the Pope mas no
doubt that God will abundantly bless those who
sacrifice their own predictions for the common
good"

MENT-pR CONGOsTO'S REPORT on

State Department again to-day and had another
long conference with Assistant Secretary Day.
This being diplomatic day. the Spanish Minister
s. nor de LONE. among the callers and had an
opportunity 10 exchange views with Mr.. Calhoun
in the presence OF Judge Day. Mr.. Calhoun left
the city tonight for his homo in Danvic. H. He
expects 70 return to the city next week as soon
as the President desires to consult him further
garding affairs IN Cuba.
Dr. CongostO the Spanish Consul at Philadel-
phia who with onsu(;encral Lee formed the
commission to inquire into the facts connected
with the death Of DR. Ruiz. is expected In Wash
ington tomorrow. lie will bring with him. proba-
bly,, two reports, the joint report signed by
himself and General Lee ana the other ndi-
viIual report such General Lee submitted to the
State Department through AR. Fshback. though
not by any means reaching the same conclusions.
Ii IS expected that DR. CongOsto's individual re-
port will assert that Or. Ruiz died in Jail from
sef-infiicted injuries willie suffering from tempo
rary alteration of mind. and that he was well
cared for during his confinement. 1t IS also prCba-
bio that Dr. Congosto has given some attention
the subject OF the naturalization Of Ruiz, and has
eudeaVorcl 10 show that there was at least a Tea-
sonablc doubt on that point. which justified the
treatment Of the case In u fashion different from
that usually adopted.
The reports OF the Commissioners are Illustrated
with excellent photographs showing the interior OF
the iail a GuHnabacoa, and all the features of Dr
Ruizs confinement that will admit OF iustra-
tiou II l. not the intention Of either side to
these public. Probably SehCr de LONE will furnish
n copy OF Dr. Consostos report to the State De-
partIn.nt and IN return will receive copy Of
General Lees report. but that II far toward
publication as these documents are likely 10 go,
according to the intentions Of the officials having
the matters In charge. until Congress calls for the
co,respondcnce Then copies OF all thcsc docu-
ments must bc sent 10 Madrid. and the Spanish
onicIals can properly ask due opportunity TO con-
siIer them so that the conclusion OF the Ruiz in
cid.nt is not likely TO be reached. II the usual
methods and cOurt"ses OF diplomacy are followed,
