PARIS. Feb. 9.-The battle is over.
IT is hardly probable that TO the second
law of NJ BRAND on the exercise Of
public worship a third viii be added
nor that 10 his third Encyclical Plus
y will add a fourth.
The moment has come. therefore, for
the counting Of the wounded and the
dead. What booty has fallen TO the
state? The inspection OF the ground On
which took for nearly two years the
combat which put a definite end to the
ancient union of the Catholic church
with the French state reveals two lead
sng facts.
The first Is the plundering of the
church; thu state has robbed it Of all
its goods. The plur der was complete,
the church was not even left in posses
sion Of its cash reserves. which had
been set aside for the purpose Of pen
sionlng its aged priests.
I am not judging. / simply state facts.

first order. the church has passed into
the position OF a beggar. obliged to

which is not perhaps, animated by very
pious sentiments. but which would not
bear the thought Of not being able To
express them if they wish. Hence. on
the one side. we have the plumber OF
the church and on the other, practically
absolute liberty of worship
So we arrive at this conclusion: That
Tor the simple people land it is these
who are in the majority. nothing will
be changed in the matter Of the public
worship in France The priests will suf-
fer, but the bourgeoisie will not find
any change either i'm his habits or mis-

DEVELOPING NEW BANKING
METHODS IN GERMANY

An interesting development in the
banking world is the announcement that
the old and widely known private bank
ing house, S. Bleichroeder, will soon open
It's first deposit branch. This is a striking
proof of the growth Of modern banking
ideas in Germany. The old type of pri-
waite banks, operating wholly with their
own capital. Is passing away: these
houses see the necessity of inviting the

q. G. O. MAY RESIGN.
Thomas Fitzgerald Is To Be Success
SECRETARIES C. Galloway May
Be Promoted.

In New York's financial center where
men are made and unmaae, there are
rumors floating about that have to do
with Oscar G. Murray, president of
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Co.
The rumors which are being engineer
ed by the Dame are to the effect that
upon Mr.. Murray's return from his va
cation, which is the first rest he has had
in some years, he will not again take
hold as president of the b. and 0. And
If he does, the Dame says, it will not
be for long Eventually so the story
goes, Mr.. Murray is to be succeeded by
Thomas Fitzgerald of Baltimore. Mr..
Fitzgerald is general superintendent of
the Baltimore & Ohio. He is close to
GO years of age and like Mr.. Murray,
knows the railway business from the
ground up. He started as a brakeman
on a freight.
According to the story, Mr.. Fitz-
gerald is not to at one succeed to
the presidency. He is to become Sec
ond vice president of the company,
succeeding Robert G. Porter. Chas. e.
Galloway, now in charge of the Cum
berland division of the road, it is
claimed, is slated to be transferred
from that position and will step into
Mr.. Fitzgerald's place as general su.

Post cards and postal cards mailed

These instructions, it is said, were
made necessary by the fact that some
persons have mailed post cards in en-
velopes with stamps on the cards and
a corner of the envelope cut out so
as to expose the stamp.
