ing against the course Of France, aft
er asserting that the rights Of religion
have been outraged by the French gov
ernment's action in preventing the
head of the church from communicat-
ing with the French hierarchy and by.
the expulsion Of Mgr. Montagnini, sec
retafy Of the Papal Nunciature at
Paris, says:
THE Representatives of the Holy
See abroad have also received a cir
cular in which are set forth the mo
tiVes for the action Of the Vatican
regarding the application of the
church and state law OF 1905. These
motives are so grave that 1t is evil
IDENTIFY impossible to accuse the Holy
See Of intransigence or Of unjust hos
tility to the French government in con-
demning the cultural association
which disregards the essential rights
the church derived from her constitu-
ton, such as maintaining an eccle-
siastical hierarchy established by her
divine founder as the basis of the or
ganization Of the church.
In fact, the law conferred on the
cultural associations rights which not
only belong exclusively to the ecclesI-
astical authorities in the place Of wor-
ship and in possessing and admin
istering ecclesiastical property, but the
same associations were rendered indie
pendent of the hierarchy and instead
were placed under the Jurisdiction OF
the lay authorities. The pontiff could
not approve of such associations with
out being lax in his duty as head Of
the church and without trampling
upon the Fundamental domestic prin-
ciples Of the church.
The same can be said of M. Brands
circular. The Holy See could not adj
NIT the unjust and intolerable condi-
tons which the circular imposed upon
the clergy in the exercise Of their
duties.
"All this evidently shows that the
Holy See merely did its duty strictly
in giving instructions on the subject
to the French clergy. II the French
government was animated by calmer
sentiment it could create for the
church in France situation which at
least would not injure the essential
rights Of the Holy See which might
even without admitting the principle
OF separation of church and state,
tolerate such situation in order to
avoid worse evils. as it did in the case
Of other countries"

RICH ORE STOLEN
FROM GREAT MOHAWK MINE
in G0LDFIELD, NEVADA.
Lessees and the Miners Are Suspected
by owners-InJunctlOn Has Been Is
sued to Protect Mlne-5O Watchers
Employed by U. s. court-over a
Million Is Said to Have Been Taken.

San Francisco, Dec. 24.-The loot
ing of the Mohawk mine of Goldfeld
by its lessees and the miners in their
employ, as charged by the owners, has
caused Judge w: w. Morrow of the
United States circuit court to issue an
Injunction protectiong the mine, which
will be enforced by so watchers ap-
pointed by the court.
George Wingfeld, who, with his as
sociates in the ownership of the mine,
filed bonds in the suit amounting to
100000 claims that within the last 80
days $1,000,000 worth of high grade ore
has been stolen and that the looting
dates back for two years.
The Wells-Fargo Express company
is involved in the trouble, according to
Wingfeld. The 1873 sacks of ore al
legged to have been stolen, valued at
500, 900; were recently shipped by the
company to the Selby smelling works
in this city, and are now the subject Of
suit in the federal courts. The ex-
press company is said to have sent it's
wagons under cover Of darkness to
the assay offices, where the miners are
said to have disposed of their steal
ings, for the purpose of taking ship
ments. There are 80 assay offices,
where Wingfeld says only three are
straight" He says that the miners
working the deposits in the Mohawk
have been dealing with the crooked
offices.
The Wells-Fargo company, he de-
claret. was concerned in the matter
only to the extent Of increasing it's
Business by shipping the ore to points
where it might be sold There are
5000 miners in the Mohawk camp who
are accused of looting by Wingfeld.

MAKE BID FoR P. 0. DEPARTMENT
Corporation Offers to Run Mail serv-
Ice Without Loss-Lower Rates.

To run the pOstOfice department in
all its branches as a private business
concern Is the latest plan that has
emanated from Chicago. The head OF
the scheme, w. D. Boyce, Is evidently
sincere in his project, for he has made
an actual proposition in writing to the
government and asks that 1t be taken
seriously and given careful considers
ton.
Mr.. Boyce is a millionaire publisher
and represents capitalists who believe
that they can carry on the business
Of the department with capital Of
$5O,OOO,OO0 and reduce postal rates,
that they can pay the government rent
for postoffices and turn over all sur
plus over per cent on the capital in
vested to the government.
A well known railroad trahic expert
will be placed at the head Of the bust
ness at salary of $4,000 a year.
Coming at time when public opinion
seems to favor a more careful super
vision Of departments and when Mr..
Bryan insists that the control Of the
railroads should be taken over by the
government, the plan has been called
a backward step by some, but the pro-
motors feel sanguine that they can re-
duce postal rates without a deficit.

Contest Is Probable.

The children SO specifically disin.
herited are Arthur, aged 7, and Mark,
aged years. The attorney engaged
by Mrs. Bradley's relatives in Salt
Lake decline to discuss the will at
this time, but there is scarcely a ques-
tion that a contest will be instituted
as much for the purpose o establishing
their paternity as to secure a none
tary consideration. This is the more
likely as Mrs. Bradley is, or was a
few months ago, in possession Of let
tiers signed with Browns name in
which the relationship to one or both
of the children is acknowledged. In
one of these letters, written after the
birth Of the first child, appears the fol-
lowing quotation:
''Your blood and mine commingled,
yet shall mount the throne of kings"
The contents Of the will have caused
a sensation in Salt Lake.

"a, 1906, four months beore Mr.. Brown
was shot down at the Raleigh hotel in
Washington, has been filed for pro
bate.
Il do not devise, or give or bequeath
anything to any of the children of Mrs.
Anna Bradley" is the language Of the

or children is or not / expressly pro-
vide that neither nor any Of them shall
receive anything of my estate.

ever existed between us to justify
such inference, direct my executors

may present and l direct that she re-
ceive nothing from my estate"

erty, valued at about $4,000, to his
