BREAK is WIDENING.
French Government and Clergy Get
tinq Farther Apart.

Paris. Jan. 30.-The break between the
French government and the clergy is wild
ening steadily Several of the bishops
gave free vent to the bitterness of their
feelings in the New Years address to
their clergy. The bishop of Marseilles
spoke of the tyranny of the sect that
seeks to suppress not merely the religious
orders, but religion itself He said that
1904 did not promise better things than
1903, for already measures had been taken
to deprive the authorized congregations
of their right TO teach. 1t was religious
teaching in all its forms, and the church
itself which We're aimed at. Under the
pretext of separating the church from
the state, the anti-religious sect was seek
ing to break the past concluded at
Rheims which the contracting parties in
tended to be final. The Bishop of An
gouleme declared that the outlook for the
church in the present year was even
more gloomy than the retrospect for 1903.
The Bishop of Bayeux denounced in
strong language the intention OF the gov
eminent TO suppress the schools Of the
authorized religious congregations. In his
diocese there were, he said, ten flourish
ing educational establishments belonging
to the Christian brothers, and more than
twenty girls schools supported by the
best societyspf the district. Nearly seven
thousand children would be expelled from
the schools chosen by their parents. In a
pastoral letter addressed to Cardinal
Richard. archbishop of Paris. Pope Plus
x, referring TO the work of the Lady
Catechists of Paris, says: 1T is all the
more precious to us. because we are
grieved to see that the natural right of
public teaching is being torn from the
clergy, or restrained within very mar
row limits. This circumstance renders it
all the more necessary that the ministry
of the priest should be aided by the
zeal of Iaymen, in order that children may
be imbued with the principles of faith
and morality"

has been grown there internationally by
the natives for centuries was originally
an introduction by the Arabs or kindred

There is a wild cotton plant in this and

which British Central Africa can place

CATHOLIC MOVEMENT.
1t Is Extending in United States as
Elsewhere.


London, Jan. 30.-The Paris correspond
ent OF the London Times writes that the
Liberal Catholic movement is steadily ex-
tending, not only in France, but also in
Italy. the United States, and in Ger
many In France there are no fewer than
three archbishops and as many bishops
among its prominent supporters, and be-
hind them is a very large number OF
priests and a still larger number OF the
faithful. The active intervention against
Able Loisy's teachings by Cardinal Rich
ard is regarded as a plain intimation OF
the uneasiness with which the movement
is regarded in Rome. Nobody doubts that
the Ultramontone influences at the Vati-
can will fight it at every point. The con-
demnation of Able LOisy's books may be
considered rs the first blow, but infuen-
tial French Catholics, whose attachment
to the Church of Rome is beyond ques-
ton, gave it to be clearly understood, says
the correspondent, in the proper quarter
before the death Of the late Pope, that. if
the instruction given to the young priests
in the French Catholic seminaries con-
tinued to inspire theme with contempt
for existing institutions they would be
compelled to make common couse with
those who demand the denunciation of

Discomfort OF, TROOPS.
British Forces in Africa Rebel Against
Treatment.

London, Jan 30.-A Transvaal CORES
pendent of the London Times writes to
explain the rising spirit of discomfort
among the British troops in South Afri-
ca. He says that they complain because
they are in bell tents, single ply, which
are extremely hot in summer and bitterly
cold in winter. There are five to eight
men in a tent. They have their meals in
their tents, and these, are taken in on
plates exposed to every dust storm, thick
and yellow as London fog. When one of
the terrific thunderStorms, which are
common, breaks over them, perhaps in
the night, and the rain pours in rivers
down the hillside. the men lie soaked in
their tents in a swamp, and presumably
a cold wind gets up which chills them
to the bone. They do not mind roughing
it in war time, but ask why should they
have to do so now? The government has
had eighteen months in which to erect
huts, yet not in one military district
are these huts ready. There are no means
provided for the men for recreation; no
cricket grounds, no gymnasium, no in
stitutes or reading rooms except one in
Pretoria. and, lastly, they have been sep
arated from their wives for over two
years, and the government refuses to let
the wives come out or TO provide accom-

fllment of what has been foretold. This
prelate. who has powerful friends, was
archbishop of Manila during the last in
surrection in the Philippine Islands, and
when the American feet attacked both
Cavite and Manila in 1898 public feeling
in Spain ran very high against him. on
account Of his conduct before and after
the surrender Of Manila. He was re-
preached with the attentions he showed
to the Americans. and the lack of loyalty
and patriotism he displayed, and especial
ly with seeking TO ingratiate himself with
the enemies of his country. Feeling
against him was so bitter that he was
obliged to leave Manila. Since then he
has lived in Spain. He has been a candi-
date for several vacant sees, but the sue
cessiYe governments did not venture to
appoint him to any of them, though he
was supported by Ultramontane infiu-
ences, which at last prevailed. His selec-
ton for Valencia was particularly injudi-
cious. because there the Republicans are
in great force and bitterly opposed to the
agreement which the friars in the Philip
pines receive a large indemnity from the
United States government on condition
of their return to Spain. The Republicans
think that there are monks enough in
Spain already without this additional i'm
portaiOn. This opposition to Mgr. Noza-
leda evidently was so fierce as to be dan
gerous or the government would not
