VATICAN CALLS
BISHOP TO TIME

Special Cablegram to The Star.
ROME. October 13.-There is reason to
believe that the Spanish government and
the Holy See have reached a friendly I'M
Outstanding with regard to the case of the
Spanish Bishop of Tuy. The Roman Cura
will undertake to admonsh the bishop with
suitable energy, and will, moreover, issue
circular letter, in which the Spanish Epis
copate will be advised to abstain from pub
fishing attacks on the civil power of the
state. The negotiations have not yet been
concluded, but. it is believed, they are
following the course indicated. If the Vat
lean does not accept this solution. the gov
eminent itself will punish the bishop, de-

injurious to the state.
In the case of the Bishop OF Cordova
the government is unable to intervene as
the prelate has limited himself to the ex-
position of doctrines covered by the liberty
of thought, and without attacking the gov
eminent.
At the present moment the government
is understood to be celebrating a new as
sociations law. for submission to the cortes
when the session reopens. The law will be
characterized by modern tendencies, and
by liberal and progressive spirit. All
the religious asSocia tons will be submitted
to the new enactment, with the exception
of three, which will be designa ted by COM
mon dHcoiu between the government and
the Vatican. These three orders will en-
JOY the privileges and immunties laid down
in the concordat of 1851. The modus vi
vendi arranged by Senior Moret with the
Vatican will remain in force until the new
associations law is presented to the cortes.

AS result of the practical discussions
at the international congress on CONNER
clal education, held here, the United States
may before long expect an invasio of
commercial students and teachers bent on
making themselves proficient in the Eng

ness methods.
The methods and object of commercial
teachlhg, the teaching to be given to small
traders, artisans, etc, and the imnortance
OF perfect knowledge of various languages

arrived at may influence many nations in
favor of raising the standard of commercial
education and induce universities to estab-
lish a faculty of commerce.
