CATHOLIC CHURCH DEFENDED
Yale Professor Declares Ferrer's Ex-
ecution Was State Affair.
DIR. II. ROsemann Lang Says An
nrchist's Death from One Point
OF View Was Just.

New Haven. Nov. 3.-Spealing to-day
Of the responsibility for the execution Of
Ferrer I'm Barcelona Prof Henry Rose
mann Lang, professor of romance. Ian
guages. and literature at Yale, said.
The Roman Catholic Church had abso-
lutely no connection with the recent exc
cution OF Prof. Feuer in Spain. The az
fair was entirely in the hands Of the mill
tary and civil authorities. In fact. the
Church was so much opposed 10 his exc
cution that the religious authorities tried
10 intervene through the Pope, but did
not take official action until too late.
Barcelona, as IT Is the largest city in
Spain. near France and I.aly, is a hot
bed OF anarchy. The authorities in trying
to stamp this out have adopted stern
measures as beft the case. Any city
which is overrUn with aliens is apt 10
be a seat Of disturbance. and Barcelona
has been in a state of terror for the last
few weeks.
When a condition IL this arises.
hasty action must be taken. and while
the trial was summary, leniency could
not reasonably be expected. The thing
is 10 be deplored in regard to summary
and perhaps insufficient trial, but Ferrer
was well known as an anarchist leader
and his execution from the authorities
point OF view was Just anS expeditions.
Il can only state again that the Roman
Catholic Church was greatly opposed to
his execution, and is in no way TO be held
culpable"

from the city and town election show
that the Democrats and Republicans
have practically broken even.

and Richmond. In each Of these cities
there was a distinct issue with the brew

that in all OF them the brewers were
