Strict Rule to French Clergy Reiterated

ROME, Dec 1S.-The Pope is dis
tressed by the abandonment of the arch
bishops house in Paris, and qualified it
as the most pitiful incident of his pom
tificate. He thinks Cardinal Richards
attitude will have a salutary influence in
the churchs cause.
The Vatican reiterates that it will
deal with memorable severity with cler-
gymen in France who do not follow pa
pal instructions. If it is true that Mgr.
LaCroix, bishop of Tarentase. has
formed an association for worship in ac-
cordance with the law of separation, he
will be repudiated.
1t is asserted elsewhere that the Nati-
can is at loss in finding a Catholic
power through which to negotiate for
protection of the interests of the ch.rch
