E. r. Francis, brother of Albert G..
Francis, is book keeper for the John
Wisland brewing company and lives
with his widowed mother at 1907
Grove street. He said:
The only news we have of my
brothers death is brief telegram
from the undertakers who have the
body in charge. We have no word from
any one else and we can not believe
that Al was murdered or committed
suicide. He was a sufferer from asth-
ma and went to Los Angeles for his
health.
I'VE never knew of him keeping a
diary and can not believe that there
is any girl mixed up in his death. My
mother and | think that ne was over
come from an attack of asthma and
probably dropped in the street and later
died from the same cause"

spain and VATICAN
Still DISPUTING
Seniofficial Note Regarding
Statements Made Recently in
the Observatory Romano
Caflists in Catalonia Issue Proc
lamations Attacking Cow
ernment Measures

SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain, Aug. IL
A semi official note, issued here today
characterizes as utterly misleading the
l1timations published recently in the
Osservatore Romano in connection
with the demand of the Vatican for the
withdrawal of the bill interdicting the
presence in Spain of religious organi-
cations not now in the country until
such time as the law permitting non
Catholic bodies to display Insignia OF
worship is passed.
This note says
First-That the principle of re-
curing government authorization
for new religious establishments
in Spain has existed in the country
for centuries and was categorical
~ affirmed in the royal decree of
1850.
Second-The intention to intro
duce the bill forbidding the pres
ence of religious organizations was
communicated May IS to Cardinal
Merry del Val, the papal secretary
of state, who at that time agreed
thereto, and who has not since de-.
MED that he did so.
Thfrd-The king, in his speech
from the throne. announced that
the bill and the reply voted by the
cortes had been approved; conse-
quently the Vatican has been deal
ing with the Spanish parliament as
We'll as the government
Fourth-Cardinal Merry del Walls
demand for the withdrawal of this
bill was presented only few hours
before the cortes adjourned; it was
therefore his design to humiliate
the civil power and provoke a rup-
ture under the delusion that such
rupture would mean the fall of the
government.
Fifth-The liberal groups in
Spain are now more united than
ever. while the Vatican impas-
sively awaits the reopening of the
cortes.
In conclusion this note says that the
government now intends to rely on its
own resources, and that the measures
necessary to put an end to the conflict
will be voted with enthusiasm

James v. Tatley Leaves for Parts Un-
known.
'Will j. V. Tatley ever return?" is
the question discussed on the streets
of Foster and Worland by the miners
and creditors whom he left to the
tune Of several thousand dollars. He
left some two weeks ago for Omaha,
Nebraska, to collect for coal he had
shipped, and it was supposed he
would return in a few days and pay
off the miners. Tatley, it seems, hac
failed to meet two regular pay days
and therefore owed them for five
weeks work, which amounts to over
$1,000. Tatley is a man that has al
ways stood high in the community
and had the confidence of all, and hi.
financial failure is regretted by the
people of the community as well az
the miners and creditors. His mos
intimate friends believe should h,
ever be successful to accumulate
money enough between now ant
eternity, he will return some day
and pay off all indebtedness.
