FRANCE.
CHURCH AND STATE
Received January 4, 8.5 a.m. PARIS, January 3
Laymen, mostly Republicans, have made the annual declaration under the French separation law in most parishes. Their action places the clergy in a dilemma, inasmuch as the supplementary law vests the tenancy of the church in the priest named in such declaration, and, the priest must accept it at the hands of the civil authorities. The clericals are unwilling to ,that extent to recognise the nation's supremacy.
SENSATION IN CLERICAL CIRCLES.
Received January 4, 9.45 p.m. PARIS, January 4,
A sensation has been caused in clerical circles in Paris by the Matin publishing a sermon by Cardinal Ireland of Saint Paul, declaring that had the French Catholics followed his advice and ranged themselves with the faithful partisans of the public the present trouble would not have arisen.
