DENIED BY THE VATICAN
REPORTS PREDICTING RUP- TURF WITH STAIN DISCUSSED.

Authorities Declare That the Differences
 With Madrid Have Been Very Much
 Exaggerated by the Spanish Liberal
 Press Backed Up by French News
 papers--situation Over Polish Ques-
 ti0n Grows More Critical.
 Rome. Nov. 1.-The vatican denies the reports which predict a rupture be- tween Spain and the holy see. Vatican authorities declare that the differences between them and Spain hay been very much exaggerated by the Spanish lib- eral press backed up by Frenct newspa- pers, and that the negotiations between Rome and Madrid are proceeding in a most friendly manner. It is pointed out that all the members of the present Spanish cabinet are good Catholics.
 The situation between the vatican and Germany over the Polish question is becoming daily more critical and is even threatening to endanger the ex- isting good relations between Berlin and the holy see. Germany insists that the vatican must help it in repreSsing what it considers to be rebellion in Poland, while the Poles are counting upon the assistance of the pope. The pope will be advised in this matter by Cardinal Kopp, bishop of Breslau, and Cardinal Fischer, archbishop of Co., logne, who are expected here shortly.
 Paris, Nov. 1.-The Matin guaran- tees the authenticity of a story to the effect that Monsignor Deramecourt saw the pope last summer and obtain ed his full appreciation to form cultural associations in the diocese of Soisson. The monsignor was dumbfounded when the encyclical forbidding compliance with the law of associations was read to the French episcopate. Mgr Dera- mecourt has died since this reading.

 Rome, Nov. 11.-Professor Charles Waldenstein, professor of fine arts in Kings college, Cambridge, England, will arrive here shortly for the purpose of perfecting an agreement with the Italian government concerning the car rying out of his project for the excava- tion of the ancient city of Herculane- um. The professors plans to this end have been accepted by the Italian goy- ernment on the condition that the par ticipation of foreign countries in the work be only under the form of private contributions, and that there be no for eign official interference.
 Professor Waldenstein has secured the active cooperation of King Victor Emmanuel as president of his organ ization, as well as that of Emperor William, King Edward and President Roosevelt.
 The excavation of Herculaneum will be a gigantic enterprise. The work of digging up the ancient city begun by King Charles III. in 173S, and it was continued under the direction of the Italian government in 1866. This ex- cavation has always been attended with the greatest difficulty, as over the ruins of the ancient city there stands to-day the town of Resina, with 10000 inhab- itants,
