TO BAR CONVICT MADE GOODS.
House Passes n Bnl Which Per- mits the Different States to Ex-
 c1ude Them.

Washington, Dec. 9.-By a prac- tically unanimous vote the house Fri day passed the bill limiting the regu- lation of interstate commerce between the several states in articles manu- factured by convict labor or in any prison or reformatory The bill was introduced by MT. Hunt of Missouri, a practical stone mason. Under the Wilson bill, which became law in 1890, convict labor-made goods may enter into active competition with the goods manufactured by free labor" and under this federal law a state could not pass law that would pre- vent the shipping into the state of prison-made goods of other states. The law which was passed Friday ab- rogates the interstate commerce law as at present applied to convict-made goods thereby affording to the differ ent states and territories the right to inhibit the shipping of convict made goods within the confines of any state or territory.
 MT. Hunt asked for it's passage not only in the interest of free labor, but in the interest of the manufacturers. He said it was an attempt to curb the criminal competition of the penitenti- ary with the free labor of the coun- try.
 Tt is cruel,' he said, "to ask the free labor of this country to maintain it's citizenship, it's dignity and it's self respect, if it has to wait until the product of the state prison is sold be- fore the employer can get reasonable price for his honestly manufactured pl oduct"

MAY WORK ON DOODLE CASES.
Pulaski County Grand Jury Getting
 Ready for Business Again.

Little Rock, Dec. lO.-The Pulaski county grand jury will convene this morning, alter a recess which began while the Taylor will case was in progress. At the time it adjourned the jury announced that all of the business that could be disposed of at the time had been transacted.
 Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton would not discuss the grand jury matters in specific way yester- day but said important cases would be presented. Since the convening of the October grand jury lynching has occurred in Argenta. Judge Lea after this occurrancc, gave the grand jury special instructions relative to 1t. 1t IS known that persons have been before the the grand jury who were supposed to be con- versant with some of the facts in the late Argenta trouble.
 Since the conviction of Sena tor Butt at Perryville last August, 1t nas been the popular opinion that Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton has a new line of evil dence 10 present to the grand jury relative to the securing of in dictments against alleged bood- lers. 1t is probable that poodle cases may be taken up at this sitting of the jury.
 No indictments have been re. turned against the former Little Rock clerks, who are alleged to have taken property from their employees. It is probable that these cases may be disposed of at this sitting.
 In speaking of the poodle cases against those already indicted and awaiting trial Prosecuting Alt torney Rhoton said yesterday that these cases would probably be set for certain days in January.
 He stated several weeks ago that such cases would be tried after the rush of business of the October term of the court had been finished.

 churches by the police for the pur- pose of pronouncing their dissolution and expelling the parish priests. The militant catholics seemingly hail with joy the prospect of violence which will compel the closing of the churches, with the attendant excite ment of religious passions.
 M. Jaures, the socialist leader, professes to believe that the vatican has deliberately determined to test the strength of the party of reaction in an effort to overthrow the repub- lie. The socialist organs generally, however, regard the pope's instruc- tions as being the result of the gov. ernment's weakness in offering any concession beyond the formation of the cultural associations contemplat- ed under the law of 1905 and declare that the government now has no al quired declarations being made or show the ecclesiastics the door. The conservative papers advise the gov ernment to remain true to it's liberal principles, contending that the more the church is intolerant and panic stricken the more authority it will need, provided the government does not lose it's head. The government has made preparations to cope with the situation but is keeping them SC cret, evidently awaiting to see wheth, CT any considerable proportion of the clergy will revolt The cabine, how ever, maintain resolute front.
 Instructions to the public prosecr tors were telegraphed broadcast Monday. Premier Clemenceau is quoted as saying:
 If the church elects to have war it will have 1t; but the world will bear witness that the vatican is like a foreign power trying to dispute the authority of the French government"
 M. Briand, minister of public wor- ship, says he thinks the pope yielded to the importunities of the Ultramon. taines, who are ever possessed with "The mad idea that out of disorder and civil war they will emerge trium- phant. The government now does not face revolt of the consciences of French Catholics but purely politi- cal enterprise"
 The report that Pope Plus had de- clared that Catholics are not to make applications to hold church services under the law of 1881 has been con firmed. The pontif also orders that parish priests are to remain in their churches until driven out by force. This means that religious crisis is at hand. The French law for the sparation of church and state Is to go into effect December 12 and 13.
 The government regards the action of the pontiff as little less than a sum- mons of the French Catholics to open rebellion, as rendering the situation exceedingly grave and possibly entail ing the most deplorable consequences
