THE POPE AND THE FRENCH.
Recent Interview Has Widened
Breach on Separation Issue.

PARIS, September 29.-The interview
with the pope, printed in the Gaulois of
this city yesterday on the church and state
separatio nlaw, has embittered rather than
ameliorated the controversy, and has pro-
voked the most severe denuncations on
the part Of the anti-clericals. who all agree
that it widens the breach between the lat
ter and the church party. NJ. Jaures the
socialist leader. in an article published to-
day. says:
1.-THE pope declares that he cannot accept
the separation law unless 1t Is modified by
parliament in accordance with the views
Of Rome-a suggestion which could not be
accepted by parliament without recognize
ing that the pope has the right to make
and unmake laws. The pope asks parlia-
ment to humiliate itself before the Vatican
or accept religious war;"
Senator Berenger In the Action takes the
same position. He says:
1.-The popes statement means that French
Catholics instead Of obeying the French
laws must take orders from the Roman
Church.
The Radical says:
1.-The statement removes every possibility
of conciaation. Once more the peaceful de-
sires of the episcopate have been overruled
by the Vatican. The episcopate would be
satisfied with an Interpretation Of the law
allaying its scruples and at the same time
guaranteeing the hierarchy of the church.
The pope demands that the chambers vote
an amendment in due parliamentary form.
which means that an agreement henceforth
is impossible.

PROPOSED CATHOLIC LEAGUE.
Doubt at Paris Over Success Of tn,
French Scheme.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
PARIS September 29.-The movement
started by NJ. Henri des Houx for the con-
stitution of a league of all the French
Catholics with the object of forming pub
lie worship associations independently of
the episcopate. has so far taken shape that
an address has been issued setting forth
its aim and appealing for popular support.
While this document probably expresses the
views Of a considerable number of French
Catholics, 1t Is anything but certain that
the scheme proposed will ever be carried
into effect in the manner indicated by Its
promoters.
One great drawback Is that, excepting
M. des Houx himself. who is known for
his life of Leo XIII and his unsuccessful at
tempt to found Catholic republican party
the movement seems up to the present to
have no leaders with sufficient confidence In
their cause openly to assume the response
bility of advocating 1t.
In his account OF the meeting OF the
founders Of the new league M. des Houx
gives no particulars of the very numer-
ous' collaborators who met at his apart
ment. II the Catholic laity 10 to enter an
effective protest against the policy Of their
ecclesiastical superiors. 1t Is evident that 1t
must be backed by men of weight and in
fuence firmly resolved to persevere in a
very serious struggle SO far these have
not materialized.

portunity of directing these balloons from
the German frontier to Peterhof in order
to throw high-power explosives on the i'm
perial residence.
