Dispose Of canalsjas.

Rome. Aug. 14.-The Pope in speak
ing of the Spanish question during an
audience which he gave to a prominent
official recently. said that the events
in Spain and the efforts of the anti
clericals. supported by irreligious
forces abroad, had caused him much
affliction. but at the same time had
afforded and opportunity for fine
manifestation of loyalty and devotion
to the church and the Pontiff himself
from the Spanish people who are by
tradition Catholic.
The Pope added that addresses, tele-
grams and letters had been received
from every part of Spain, assuring the
Holy See of entire support, while the
rscipine and strength of the clergy
and their harmony with the Episco-
pacy were above praise The Pope
concluded with the hope that this time
the good cause would triumph. because
the situation appeared so favorable to
the church that unless some great
change occurred it would probably not
be necessary even to answer the last
note from 3, Premier Canalejas, but
merely await the re-opening of the
Cortes when the majority would dis
pose of the premier who had betrayed
the Spanish nation.

The Osservatore Romano cites the
bad taste displayed by Premier Canale-
Jas in evincing satisfaction at receiv-
ing felicitations from abroad. which
are nothing more or less than foreign
interference in the internal AFFAIRS or

paper, win not prevent the just protest
