THE MORXIXO OHFOONIAN, SATURDAY, DECE3IBER 15, 1906. WW OUT IS FOUND French Laymen Will Apply for Use of Churches. CARDINAL ' ISSUES NOTICE Only Clergy Forbidden to Obey Law and Church Officially Refuses to Submit Clemcnceau Is Preparing New Laws. PARIS. Dec. 14. There has been issued from the office of the Archbishop ot Paris, Cardinal Richard, an important communi cation which will facilitate a way out of the present-church difficulty. This com municatlon sets - forth that declarations madeby laymen relative to worship are not In disobedience to the instructions of .the Pope, provided their purpose is honestly to avoid disturbances, and ad mits that such declarations do not in fringe upon the hierarchy of the church. as the Vatican, has only forbidden clergy men to carry out the required legal for malities. This recognition of the layman's right to make a declaration will permit of the carrying on of the worship in accordance with the law, but in the meantime the church officially maintains its position of not submitting to the state. Cardinal Richard declines to confirm the declaration emanating from the arch bishopric, although It was given out in semi-official form'. VATICAN REVIEWS DIFFICULTY Says France Violates Rights and Is Hostile to Pope. ROME, Dec. 14. The Pope and the Papal Secretary of State, Cardinal Mer ry del Val, have rerused all requests to grant interviews for publication in relation to the Franco-Vatican situa tion, but the following statement is authorized by the Vatican: The situation may be summarized as fol " Iowa: General accord, the solemn bilateral con tract, has not yet been denounced by the 'renoh government, which wishes to estab lish a new legal standing for the church in Franco. The government did not agree with the Holy See on this subject and repeatedly openly showed hostility toward the head of the church. Violence may prevail tor a time, but those who are suffering from this state of oppression preserve all their rights and all their claims. The .explosion of Joy among the Masonic demagogic societies as a result of the persecution upon the part of the gov ernment shows that the war is against the church and religion. . Notwithstanding the bills passed and regu lations adopted, France at the present time has a law granting religious liberty to those who do not comply with the law providing for separation of church and state. The one point in the circular Issued recently by the French Minister of Public Worship Is his confession that It Is impossible to ap ply to cultural associations the laws of 1SS1 and 1901, which were adopted for the regu lation of other kinds of association meetings. Therefore what is needed Is a real law pro viding for real liberty Instead of arbitrary ministerial circulars. The loyalty and good will of the Holy See under similar circum stances was shown in Brazil. There was a monarchy and a concordat, both of which the Republicans- suppressed and proclaimed their separation from the Holy See under certain reserves. Later the Brazilian Republic came to an understanding with the Vatican and a papal nuncio was accredited to Rio Janeiro, while a Brazilian Minister was accredited to the Vatican.' v The search of the nunciature at Paris and the expulsion from France of Monsignore Mon tagntnl, secretary of the nunciature, were etcps taken with the object of making' the world believe the false statements circulated later, which were said to have originated In the discovery of documents seised at the nun ciature, sucb as the report that some ot the French episcopacy and clergy were ready to make applications to hold religious meetings. There is no truth in the statement. The Holy ee Is not opposing applications under the law,, but takes exception to the whole spirit of the circular isasued by Minister of Public Worship Briand. conditions Insuring that the churches themselves will be retained for religious purposes. The continuance of public worship will be provided for under a combination of the laws of 18S1 and 1301. With regard' to the pensions and al lowances of the clergy, distinctions will be made by which those who are en titled to the former will lose their rights if they are deprived of their French citi zenship, while those who are entitled to the latter will lose their allowances if they do not confirm with the laws. The laws under which the clergy will for feit their French citizenship will be drawn up in a special measure to be prepared later. ' The Radical Left group in Parlia ment has united all the Republican groups to support the government "in the execution of the will of the peo ple In -the maintenance of the sover eignty of the law and liberty of con science and worship." 7 Consoled by American Sympathy. ROME, Dec. 14. The Pope this morning received a cablegram from Archbishop Farley, of New York, expressing the sender's warmest sympathy " in the church's present trials. The pontiff was extremely gratified to receive this mes sage. Commenting upon it, he said: "It -is the' heart of America that con soles us. The largest center of Catholi cism Is the United States." CUIM GAINS -THEY ME BICYCLISTS IN REVOLT AGAINST v MANAGEMENT. SALEM VERSUS MULTNOMAH Game Tonight Will Open Basketball League Season. The Oregon State Basketball League) season will open tonight at Multnomah Club with a game between Salem Y. M. C. A. and the clubmen. The Multnomah team is in the pink of condition and can be depended on to put up a fast game.' Physical Director Kohn and Cap tain Dent have been coaching the team and have watched " the work of each player during the Inter-club league games. Nearly all the players have shown great improvement during the inter-club games and have given the coaches a line on the men. It is the general opinion that either M. A. A- C. or the local Y. M. C. A. will win the championship of the league, although every college and club in the league has a stronger team this year than ever before. C. C. " Cates, of Hillsboro, will referee the game- He was appointed by the ex ecutive committee of the league at the last meeting and is considered one of the best referees in the state. Multnomah will line up as follows: Center forwards. Dent (Captain) and Livingston, center, Bellinger or Allen, guards, Allen and Rasch. Portland Y. M. - C. A. and Monmouth Normal School will play at the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium December 21. PARIS CALMS J)OWN AGAIN. Religious Students at Angers Pelted With Stale Eggs. PARIS. Dec. 14.-The first day, of the regime of the separation of the church and state having passed without grave disorders, public interest in the details of the continuation of the struggle Is already flagging. It is now apparent that the resistance of the clergy will be purely passive and that there is no pros pect of religious passions being aroused unless the churches are closed, and the . Government therefore Is resting on its oars, and will continue to do so until Parliament authorizes the drastic meas ures which the Cabinet is preparing. In the meantime in this city, except in the churches where legal applications were tiled, the police again took notes of in fractions of the law at the morning masses. A number of additional applications to hold meetings under the law of 1881 were made during the day. While students were evacuating the Seminary at Angers today, a number of manifestants pelted the local authori ties with eggs and attacked them with sticks. The police made several ar rests, the prisoners including some of the Seminarists. Cardinaf Richard is awaiting expulsion from the episcopal mansion. The govern ment, .however, desires to avoid even the appearance of force in the case of the aged primate, who is in bad health and Is deferring action in the hope that he will depart in -a few days of his. own volition. The Action, a violent Socialist organ, today made an attack upon the govern ment, calling attention to the alleged fact that Catholic gymnastic societies had numbers of rifles. There is not the slight est evidence, however, that armed re sistance is contemplated. It Is becoming more ajid more appar ent that the Ultramontanes hope to be forced to have recourse to private, wor ship, and that they are embarrassed by the unauthorized applications . to hold religious-meetings under the law of 18S1. PARENTS' NIGHT AT Y. M. C. A. Youthful Gymnasts Give Successful Exhibition of Accomplishments. Parents' night at the Y. M. C. A. was attended by over 600 friends and relat ives of the juvenile performers. This annual entertainment is a gala event for the Y. M. C. A. boys, as it is the one night of the year on which their parents have an opportunity of wit nessing the work of the gymnasium classes. One . of the features of last night's entertainment was the music by the orchestra. A number of pleasing selec tions were rendered. Harry Parsons, the boy soprano, made a hit with the audience, and responded to several en cores. For weeks the boys had been working bard preparing forethe event, and everything went off smoothlx and on time. , The first event on the programme was a regular class exhibition by 100 boys. This was given that the visitors might get some Idea of what a gym nasium class eally is. During this performance a number of selections were rendered by the orchestra. Ip the handball tournament Sherwood and Post defeated R. Hale and Holm qulst, 21-15. Garcia and Jackson were defeated by Vestrand and Young, 21-11. Only one single match was played, and in this Holmquist defeated Sherwood, 21-17. The aquatic events attracted consid erable attention. The programme In this department was an exhibition and no records were kept. Burt Burdick won the 20-yard race and Leslie Tlb betts the long dive. A tug of war cre ated much merriment among the spec tators. The last athletic contest of the even ing was a basketball game between Y. M. C. A. players and the Boys' Bri gade team, of Alblna. The game was a walk-away for the Y. M. C. A. They scored 30 points, while their opponents annexed but 8. Friends of the Y. M. C. A. pronounced last night's exhibition the best ever given by the institution. They "Soldier" Around Track in Protest I ted Flag Always Steals - Resnlt of Spurts. NEW YORK, Dec. 15. Though thou sands were still present, there was a noticeable falling off last night in the attendance at the six-day bicycle race at Madison-Square Garden. There was a ripple of fun when late last night fast sprints were started by Root, closely followed by Mac Far land. The result was the loss of a lap by Vander stuyft and Stol and Galvin and Wiley. 2 A. M. Score: Eight teams 1977 miles, two laps; Breton-Samuelson and Walthour-Bedell, 1977 miles, one lap: Vanderstuyft-Stol and Gavin-Wiley dropped out of the race. Record for this hour, 2345 miles, five laps, made by Miller-Waller in 1899. Many of the spectators believed Stol ana oeorget had been lapped after a sensational sprint at 3 A. M. yesterday, started by the Walthour-Bedell team. It was the longest that has yet oc curred, lasting 16 minutes. Walthour and Bedell, smarting under a decision rendered an hour earlier, when a spill robbed them of a lap that they had nearly won, started out at .a pace that caused'' all the riders to do their best. and kept the spectators In a continual roar of cheers and excitement. Reliev. ing each other at every two laps, Walt. hour and Bedell kept goinK at their best pace and forced the other riders to call on their partners for help and relief. Leon Georget and Stol, whose part ners had been hurt In the spill at 2 A. M., were the only riders who could not get relief, and they had to bear the brunt of the fight for their teams. They protested earnestly this morn ing when, just as they seemed to be about to gain a lap, Fogler feu, mak ing a spill ana causing the red flag to be hung out, which indicated that the gain would not count. The riders claimed that the fall was designed in order to block their gain, and for time they refused to ride again until something was done. They were event ually appeased, and the race, which had been delayed an hour, was resumed. An organized movement in which nearly all the riders joined as a pro test against the rulings ft the judges in refusing to mark up the laps which some of the riders declared were fairly won was begun today. The men declare that they have been unfairly treated, and that they will do no more real work until the management makes some arrangements by which their gains will be recorded. Soon after this agreement was reached among the men, the pace dropped to the minimum, and the race developed into a slow and uninteresting procession. Arm In arm members of rival teams pedaled slowly along the level floor at the base of the "bowl," reading the morning papers and joking with oneanother. & F.1ATTER F HEALTH e7fj Absoletcly Pa? a A Cream of Tartar Powder, free from alum or phot- phatlc acid ft HOT SOCCER GAME PROMISED British Ships .

KESTLY IS ELECTED MANAGER Gold Footballs to Be Given Members of Team That Defeated Multnomah. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene. Dec 14. (Special.) Grover Kestly, '08, was elected football manager to succeed Guy Mount for the season of 1907, at a meeting of the athletic council this after noon. Kestly has been assistant manager and was the only candidate for the place. Manager Mount turned In his final ac count of the football finances. The total receipts amounted to $3846.10. and the ex penditures were J3093.79, leaving a profit on the season of J7o2.31. The varsity "O" was recommended to eight- new members of the first-team squad, namely: Zacharlas, KuykendaU, Clark, Pinkham, Scott, Gllles, Oberteuffer and Wood. After some discussion the council recommended that the student body provide gold football embems for the team that defeated Multnomah, and fa vored a general scheme by which the stu dent body should adopt regulations gov erning the presentation of a gold emblem to every player who shall make a good record on he team. At the close of the council meeting a suggestion was made to substitute the University of Washington game for the Thanksgiving contest with Multnomah, but the general feeling toward the club, resulting from the good, treatment re. ceived in Portland this year, postponed the discussion to a later meeting of the council. M'CREDIE SIGNS POKORNEY Portland's New Second Baseman Has .9 67 Fielding Average. Manager Walter McCredle has at last corralled his second baseman. The man who will guard the keystone sack for the Portlands during the baseball season of 1907 will be Ed Pokorney, who played last season with a team In the Western Asso ciation. McCredle hasn't had an easy time getting Pokorney's signature to a Portland contract. He found his new sec ond baseman a hard man to capture, and so fearful was he of losing him that he gave up attending the annual meeting of the Coast League, for just at that time the deal was hanging fire. Pokorney has been much sought after by other magnates and for a time it lboked as if Manager McCredle would have to look elsewhere for a second base man. The new player s record is a good one. In 1906 he played in 134 games, was at bat 528 times, made 146 hits and crossed the home plate 67 times. He stole 27 bases and wound up the season batting 277. His fielding average was .967, which is going some. The way the champion line-up will look next season is something like this: Catch ers, Donahue and Carson; first baseman, Newman, who will take Pete Lister's place; shortstop, W. Sta-ton; second base, Ed Porkorney; third base, McElveen; left' field. James ' Shinn; center, McHale, and right field, McCredie. The pitching staff will be made up of Henderson, Kin- sella, Moore, Califr, Groom and Scnimptr. STREETER MAKES LARGEST RUN Progress of Billiard Tournament at Multnomah Club.
