Portugal to Proclaim Church
Separate From State.
CLERGY FREE TO MARRY

hlpPatrlarch Denounces De
creeLetter 1 Proscribed.
LISBON. April 1 The Cabinet has
flnUhed the decree of separation of
church and atate. This will be promul
gated Friday or Saturday.
The state concedes entire liberty of all
creeds, the Catholic creed ceasing to be
the state religion from the date of the
promulgation. Henceforth all churches
will be maintained by the faithful.
The beneficed clergy will continue to
receive stipends until July 1. after which
they will be paid pensions. The prop
erty necessary to the celebration of pub
lic worship will be ceded to the clergy
free of cost. All the Portuguese and
foreign clergy engaged In religious work
will continue as hitherto, but all others
must obtain authorisation.
All the religious property which Is
proved to belong' to private Individuals,
either Portuguese or foreign, will be re
spected. British and other foreign sem
inaries will be allowed t- remain, but
persons connected with the seminaries
will not be allowed In the streets In
clerical garb.
As the Catholic will no longer be the
state religion, priests may marry. In case
of death, pensions will revert to the
parents, widow or children.
The separation of church and state
was announced In a decree Issued by
the provisional government last October.
Details of the separation were left for
the consideration of the Cabinet.
The announcement by Foreign Minis
ter Machado last January that the de
cree would be promulgated within a
month led to the Issuance of a pastoral
letter signed by the patriarch of Lis
bon to the archbishops and bishops of
Portugal. This letter, while it ac
claimed the government for certain
measures, criticised It harshly because of
the dissolution proposal.
The government ordered the provincial
Governors to forbid the reading of the
pastoral letter and the arrest of several
priests followed for disobeying.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 19. (Spe
cial.) Frank Dunn, well-known as a
down-town saloonkeeper and cafe
owner, waa fatally Injured this morn
ing, shortly after midnight., and two
other persons were slightly Injured
when an automobile in which the party
was riding stopped on the grade at
Cotr and Halght streets, backed down
almost to Devlsadero street and over
turned when the chauffeur attempted
to swing It to the sidewalk to avoid
an approaching car.
Dunn, according to the other mem
bers of the party, attempted to jump
from the machine. Just as he was
throwing himself out of the door the
machine, which was a limousine, over
turned and he was caught between the
door and the side of the automobile,
receiving- a fractured skull. He waa
hurried to the German Hospital and an
operation was performed in the hope
of saving Dunn's life, but physicians
today said there was little hope that
he would live.

fractured rib. M. M. Little, another

New Action Likely to Be Or
dered Because Informer
Was Accomplice.
PRIEST IN HIGH SPIRITS
"Guardian Angel" ot Neapolitan
Organization, as Well as Other
Prisoners, Feels Better After '
Holy Week ' Kecess.
VITERBO. Italy, April 19. The trial
of the Neapolitan Camorrists may be
halted, and a new Investigation into
the murder of Gennaro Cuoccolo and
his wife ordered, on the ground that
the informer. Gennaro Abbatemagglo,
was an accomplice in the crime.
This possibility rests on the truth
of a sensational report, circulated on
the resumption of the caso today, to
the effect that if the evidence already
prepared by the state appears Insuffi
cient to convict the accused persons,
Abbatemaggio will confess complicity
in the assassination of Cuoccolo.
It Is said that he will swear that
while he was not one of those who
struck the death blows, he witnessed
the proceedings in the role of a person
who warned the actual assassins
against interruption and helped them to
make their escape.
Prisoners Troop In.
After a respite during: holy week the
band of shackled Camorrists trooped
into the Court of the Assizes today, and
again faced their accusers from within
the steel bars of the cages which occupy
the right arm of ,the huge cross that
shapes the interior of the ancient
church of San Francisco.
The priest Cirro Vitozzl. whose
flights of oratory and exhibitions of
passion have enlivened the murder
trial, was perhaps the most cheerful
of the lot'-today. As he was led Into
court, bound but - still wearing his
priestly garb, he declared that during
the Kaster recess he had engaged In
fervid religious exercises which had
given him strength to endure every
suffering'.
"I am," he proclaimed," the guardian
angel of the Camorra, spiritually arm
ored against everything and every
body." Fuccl Denies Charges.
Lulgl Fuccl, who Is described as the
fictitious head of the Camorrists, and
given a nominal office in order to pro
tect Enrico Alfano, the guiding spirit,
was called for interrogation. Fuccl
averred that he was neither the real
nor the nominal head of the organiza
tion, and denied that he was even a
Camorrlst.
"It would Indeed be most strange,"
said the prisoner, "if this society were
to choose for its leader a man like my
self. Why, through my life I have been
condemned but once, and then to only
two months In prison because I had
mixed In a row during which I was
well beaten.
"It Is true that I attended a ban
quet with a party of friends at the
Alda Tavern in Bagnolo in the Spring
of 1906; but It Is absurd to assume that
Cuoccolo was sentenced to death on
that Joyful occasion."
