June .17, 9.20 p.m. MADRID, June 17. ‘‘l was treated like a common criminal. Apparently the Republican region does not permit of courtesy cither to grey hairs or to the Primate and Prince of the Church,” said Cardinal Segura after deportation. “I fear the present terrorism against opponents of Republicanism and Socialism will produce irreligious courts, whose laws will tend to destroy the Catholic Church of Spain.” The Rome correspondent of the Tinies states that the Vatican has protested to Spain against the expulsion of Cardinal Segura. The Clerical and Monarchist press are indignant at the expulsion of Cardinal Segura. The newspaper El Debate asks whether the Government wishes to provoke civil war, and suggests that the actions of the members of the Cabinet aro colculated to enforce Roman Catholics to abandon their present legal tactics. The La Tierra, which is the organ of the Leftists, alleges that there is a strong movement among the Roman Catholic radical elements of northern Spain to place Don Jaime on the throne. Funds and munitions have been accumulated for tho purpose. Don Jaime is a descendant of the pretender Don Carlos, whose supporters are constantly crossing the frontier from their headquarters at Bayonne.
