It has developed that some Italians

FRANCO APAL RUPTURE.

Paris, Aug. 1-Althoueh no ofiieia,
announcement has yet been made ii
can be positively affirmed that the rup.

is complete The holy sees lengthy

courteously worded merely amounts to
polite statement that the pope does

Diplomatic courtesy forbids the pub
LEGATION of the French answer until the
pope is notified, but Foreign Minister
Delcasse has sent to NJ. de Courcel,
the French charge d'affaires at the Vat
lean, two notes-one for the papal
secretary of state announcing the rup-
ture and the second d personal note in
structing the charge d'affaires and the
Others Of the staff of the embassy to
return to Paris Immediately.
1t Is not expected that the rupture
will have any immediate consequences
beyond the mutual withdrawal of the
representatives Of France and the Yati.
can and the suppression Of the EN-.
bassy and nunciature, as the denuncia.
ton Of the eoncordat requires parlia.
mentafy sanction.
Foreign Minister Delcasse has ad
dressed a note to the papal nuncio to
the effect that in consequence of the
rupture Of relations between France
and the Vatican his mission In Paris
no longer had any object.
The rupture Of relations between
France and the Vatican does not cause
surprise. 1t had been generally fore
seen that Premier Combes was de.
termlned to bring it about despite tie
opposition which doubtless he met from
certain members OF the cabinet. The
fact that the yatican's reply to the
French note was drawn up In Italian,
which is not the official language OF
the Church Of France or diplomacy,
causes some irritation.
