POPE'S LETTER
STIRS FRANCE
Encycical on Church Law interpre.
ted as Leaving Bishops
Free to Act.

Paris, Aug, 1o.--'The pope's encycli-
cal to the French archbishops and
bishops regarding the separation law
continues to be the topic here of alb
sorhing interest; but the discussion
is largely problematical, as the law
not taking effect until December gives
ample time for reflection.
The pope's intention is regarded in
government circles as leaving the
bishops free to act in the way which
to them seems best, without exciting
violent conflict between the civil
and religious powers. The pope, they
contend, by his repeated reference to
the rejection of the associations pro-
yided for by the law, entertained the
afterthought that the government
might possibly by means Of negotia-
tions be induced to assent to the for
nation of associations which, while
carrying out the spirit Of the law,
would recognize the divine constitu-
tion of the church, the Interchangeable
rights of the pontiff and the hierar-
chy's complete control of sacred edi-
fees.
However, this hypothesis, if true,
has not, according to the semi-oificial
view, any great chance to realization,
such a project being considered ac-
ceptable by the government which re-
CARDS the law as it exists as incapa-
BILE of modification.

Panic and CONSERVATION indescrib'

fires are steadily raging. We are suf-

of San Francisco. AS night comes on
the city is everywhere aglow while in
the unobstructed districts clouds Of
smoke and yapor settle into the
streets and houses where the throngs
of homeless one are wandering about
crazed by the fearful calamity.
1t is almost impossible to ascertain
how wide an area of country this WIS.,

been heard from Santiago. the caritol
city of Chile, and it is feared the fate
of that city is as bad or worse than
that of Valparaiso. Telegraphic COM

No trains have arrived or left the
city since the first shock, as all rail
road tunnels are filled and miles of
track on the surface are twisted and
rendered useless.
The day had been usually calm and
pleasant. At eight o'clock the whole

also doomed.

violence greater than before. The
