MONKS FINED AND JAILED
French PopuIace strew Flowers and
Cheer Holy Fathers GOING
to Court.

PARIS. May 16.--The government is ac-
lively pursuing repressve measures against
unauthorized congregations These meas
nres are now principally confined to judicial
action The opposition TO them seems prac-
tically to have ended, although the mani
festations caused by the trials continue.
Owing to the precautions taken these mani
festations do not assume a serious charac-
ter.
The trial of ten Capuchins at Lemens
today drew a crowd of 5000 sympathizers
around the courthouse, who cheered the
monks, many OF the women strewins
flowers in their pathway.
In court the superior made an eloquent
defense and was much applauded by those
present The Capuchins, however were
sentenced to pay the minimum fine Of q. 20
each. Then they were escorted back to
their convent by the crowd, which chanted
the Magniflcat on the way. Socialists at
tempted a counter manifestation at Lemens,
but the sympathies Of the crowd were evil
IDENTIFY with the monks and order was not
disturbed.
Seven Redemptionists were arrested today
at Valenco-Sur-R Rhode for refusing to leave
their convent. They were led from the con-
vent by the police to prison.
Amid many manifestations of SYMPATHY
several Capuchins were tried today at
Blois, convicted and sentenced to pay fine
