ALFONSO BOWS
TO VATICAN
Report That Spanish Clerical
Have Abandoned Proposed
Demonstration
GOVERNMENT IT IS SAID
WILL MAKE CONCESSIONS

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
MADRID. Aug. .-Anti-Clericals
were greatly aroused to-day over a
report that the Catholics had aban-
doned the idea of holding a gigantic
meeting OF protest agaiI the govern
ment's course in the yatican dispute
as result Of promises of concessions
from the government to the church.
These concessions, It is said, were
ordered by King Alfonso. on the advice
of his English relatives with whom
he is now visiting. They are said to
have impressed the youthful King with
the gravity of the situation and of the
necessity Of not alternating the great
bulk of Spanish Catholics.
IL concessions have been made. an
anti-Clerical outbreak seems inevita-
BILE. The Liberals and Republicans are
in no mood to witness the govern
ment's surrender to the church after
the apparently firm stand of the last
few days. and they will fight before
submitting to retrogressive policy
The announcement of the complete
abandonment of these plans for a
meeting of protest occasioned consid-
cradle surprise and is accounted for
only on the ground Of the military
movement by the government or the
reported concessions.
II has been known for several days
that the pouring Of 10000 soldiers into
San Sebastian has disheartened the
leaders Of the proposed demonstra-
ton.
