Pope Is Far From Inclined to
Change His Policy.
NEXT MONTH WILL DECIDE
Deicasse's Note Contends That In
Asking for Resignation of Church
Officials the Concordat
is Infringed Upon.
PARIS. July 20 The text of Foreign
Minister Deicasse's note addressed to the
Vatican was communicated to the Coun
cil of Ministers today. It creates a de
cisive issue, asking for the withdrawal
of the letters by which the Vatican called
for the resignations of Bishops Gea, of
Xaal, and Nordez. of Dijon, otherwise,
all relations between France and the
Vatican will be broken off.
The contents of Deicasse's note are
semi-officially stated to be as follows:
"The French Government asks for the
withdrawal pure and simple of the let
ters the Vatican addressed to the Bishops
of Laval and Dijon, which are considered
to be a breach of the concordat, as
France had not previously been consulted
relative to the dismissal of the bishops.
In default of compliance, the Holy See
is adi6ed that the pontifical nuncio at
Paris will receive his passports and that
relations will be severed."
A similar notification was communicated
to the papal nuncioteur here. The Vati
can's answer has not et been received
It is expected that the question will be
maturely considered before an answer is
given. Therefore the council does not an
ticipate a determination of the issue be
fore August. The officials Incline to the
belief that a rupture Is Inevitable, as un
official adlces from Home Indicate that
the Vatican does not intend to comply
with the request to withdraw the letters
calling for the resignations of the bishops
The Journal des Debats characterizes
the note as an ultimatum, and sajs that
unless entire satisfaction Is given a com
plete rupture will follow Immediately, the
personnel of the French Embassy to the
Vatican being withdrawn simultaneously
with the delivery of the passports to the
nuncio.

GIVEN FREEDOM.OF LONDON.
Lord Curzon Says Insults of Thibet
ans Can No Longer Be Borne.
LONDON, July 20 The freedom of the
City of London was presented to Lord
Curzon of Keddleston, Viceroy of India,
at the Guild Hall today with all the cus
tomary ceremonials. In a speech Lord
Curzon said the Thibetans' insults could
not any longer be borne. He was sent to
India for the purpose, among other things,
of guarding the British frontier, and he
hoped that as a result of the expedition
to Thibet the present unrest and intrigue
in that country would aease and har
monious relations between India and
Thibet would gradually be built. In the
course of his remarks Lord Curzon clearly
intimated his Intention to return to India.
