FRANCE AND THE VATICAN.
ATTITUDE OF THE POPE. PRINCIPLES OF THE CHURCH. ITBRSS ABBOCIATIOM.I ROME, oOth Januavy. The Pope has approved tho decision of tho French bishops, who are willing to accept the form of contract admitted by the civil code between bishops or cures on tho one hand and prefects or mayors on the other. Under this arrangement the churches remain at the disposal of the clergy for purposes of public worship. The bishops insist that fcha civil authorities in all dioceses must concur. The Vatican declares that this is proof of the Church's willingness to submit to the harshest conditions provided its principles are respected.
