CHURCH TROUBLES.

A dispatch from Paris says that the
fate of the Clemenceau cabinet and the
definite decision whether the settlement
of the church lease question negotiated
by Minister of Education BRAND shall
stand will probably be determined to-
morrow. On the morning of that day
the cabinet will docide Its course, and
in the afternoon it will go before parlia'
ment and define Its position.
II Ia certain 10 advance that If NJ.
BRAND is beaten 10 the cabinet tomorrow
he not only will retire, but will appeal
from the decision Of the cabinet to the
Chamber Of Deputies, and that the issue
will be fought out upon the floor 10 q
battle-roysl between the premier and
MS young lieutenant, whose speeches 10
favor of liberal Interpretation Of the sep
arstion law have been repeatedly ordered
plaoarded through the country. 1t is q
curious fact that while the government
is hesltsting scores OF commnnes, disre.
gsrding the instructions and advices OF
the government, are concluding con-
tracts between mayors and cures.
Attempts we're made sgain yesterday
TO interrupt the services OF the lndepen'
dent Catholic Church at the Church Of
the Holy Apostles in Paris, but they
were quickly represssd. a dozen arrests
were made. As the congregation was
leaving the church some young men be
longing TO tho militant Catholic organ
iz0tlon hOoted an old veteran. Later
Archbishop Vilette, in company with
DIR. A. f. MailloD, was insulted by the
editor Of tho Soleil.
Fifteen thousand persons, among them
100 red shirted Garibaldians, with l2O
d 4gs and 20 bands OF music, participated
Yesterday 10 an anti. clerical demonstra-
ton ia Rome In favor of France. The
procession crossed the city ami went to
he monument Of Giordano Bruno, the
Italian philosonher who Raa burned at
he stake by order Of the iDquialtion,
where 80 wresths we're disposited. After
Yards the marchcrs went to the capitol,
and, despite their being prohibited doing
20, entered the balcony OfMichael Angelo,
overlooking the hill, and planted the red
republican Gag, and, amid enthusiastic
cheering, republican and socialist de.
puties delivered violent anti.clerical
speeches. The government took ener-
Setic measures to avoid trouble. The
whole garrison WAS under arms and all
be streets leading to the Vatican were
barred by troops. Similar manifestations
took place in all the leading Italian
owns.

Country Needs Hard Times.

BY &c r1DOUCAL. Ex-Preident Of he New York State Bankers Association.
N our industrial and commercial situation we see a volume Of
business never paralleled in this o r in any other country.
business men that it was HIGH TIME TO CURTAlL~
Each said that the outlook in his particular field was for increased
rather than for diminished business. Until recently not one admitted
that his Judgment dictated any policy of INFRINGEMENT We
cannot hold the present pace. We should not hold it even if we could.
If our dcpostors do not realize this, our unpleasant but perfectly
AND FORCE INFRINGEMENT.
I'VE are in an era of extravaganza in enterprise and extravaganza
of expenditure, extravaganza IS much beyond precedent as is our
FENEIiISlI business activity. No matter what this country's book
profits are, it cannot accumulate capital without thrift, and today thrift
appears to be forgotten.
KNOWN As "HARo TIMES" IS THE ONLY CURE.
Every good business man knows that the end of CONSTANTLY
RISING PRICES must some time be reached and that when that
time comes prices will not remain stationary at the high level, but will
start II the long expected decline. Business men should not dread
but should welcome that time. WE ARE NOT TODAY ON A
SOUND BASIS. We cannot get back to a sound basis until we
have a decided check. The longer that check is delayed the more
severe will it be.
Expansion is not confined to the industrial and commercial world.
For years banking liabilities have been expanding ont of all proportion
to the growth of cash reserves. Is it not time for bankers to check
this UNDUE EXPANSION? Consider that our reserves consist
largely of balances due from other banks. The system Of reserve
agents both in II state and national banking systems, the abolition
of which would be opposed by most bankers, contains possibilities of
serious troubles-na nay, more, INVITES SERIOUS TROUBLE.
