Paris May 10.-The correspondent at

graphs as follows:
General Kuropatkin has ordered gen
cral retreat and no doubt intends to avoid
n battle until he has sufficient forces.
He actually has at his disposal not more
than 10000 men. exclusive Of the garri-
son at Port Arthur. which consists of
10000 men, and the garrison OF New
Chwang of 1900 men.
"A general who knows the facts of the
mobilization tells me the last 1000 merl
making up the required 10000 will leave
Kasan. July u adding. we will be very
sick if the railway is not working well.
1t is not likely that Gen Kuropatkin will
fatigue his troops unnecessarily. If the
Japanese press him he will retir from
Lao Yang to Mukden. or even 10 Hardin.

of the Situation Between the Holy
See and France.
Rome, July 1S-From the highest
source it is learned that the Vaticans
view of the situation between the
Holy See and France is as follows:
The Pope regards the dissolution of
the Concordat by France as absolutely
certain. The pretext is that the Holy
See, before the visit of President Lou
bet to Rome called on Bishop Geay,
of Laval, to resign. He refused and
was summoned to Rome to answer the
gravest charges. The Bishop appealed
to the French government, which
claimed that the Holy See was in
fringing the Concordat. but as the
Bishop had not been punished For

Premier Combes differs with his col
league and bases his contention on

constitute an enlargement. or eXplana-
ton of the Concordat, made by the
French government and which was
never acknowledged by the Holy See
The Pontiff is firmly decided to pro-
coed with the case of the Bishop, Who
if he is not in Rome on July 2S. will
be suspended. The Bishop was in
vited by Pope Leo XIII to resign and
refused to do so, showing the case
is one of long standing. At the Vati-
can it is absolutely denied that any
other prelates are concerned in the
