ROME, Dec 17. The Spanish government ban notified the Vatican that It objects to taking charge at present of the archives of the papal nunciature at Paris, owing to the rupture of diplomatic relations between France and the Vatican. Spain certainly would have accepted the task If requested by the Vatican to do so when the papal nuncio at Paris, Mgr. Dorenzelll, was re called, as Prance then could not have made any objection. But after the expul sion of Mgr. Montagnlnl, the secretary of the nunciature and the search of the archives such a step as taking chargeof the papal Interests In France might be re garded as hostile to the French govern ment. It I. stated In this connection that the Vatican authorities made a mistake In not applying Immediately after the search of the archives to Count Tornlelll, the Italian ambassador at Paris, not as the ambassador of Italy, but as the dean of the diplomatic corps, whose duty It Is to protect the privileges of the corps.

Cardinal Uitm Palace. PARIS, Dec 17. Cardinal Richards, archbishop o( Paris, today voluntarily va cated the episcopal palace and temporarily accepted the hospitality of Denis Cochin, the conservative deputy, at the latter's residence In the Rue de Babylone. The de parture of the primate was the occasion for an Imposing manifestation on the part of the majority of the bishops and priests of Paris, many members of the noblHty and about 8,000 men. women and children. The gathering completely blocked the street In front of the episcopal palace, and those present sang the "Credo" and other Can ticles as the cardinal was asslHted Into his carriage by the coadjutor archbishop. Mgr. Amlctte, and his two vicar generals. The crowd knelt and chanted as the cardinal seated himself In the vehicle. The vener able prelate, who was much affected, then arose and blessed the multitude. A num ber of young Catholics thereupon ap proached the carriage, detached the horses and with difficulty dragged It through the dense masses of people lining the streets. On oil sides were heard cries of "Long live Plus X" and "Long live the cardinal." Aboutt hree quarters of an hour were consumed In pulling the carriage from the palace to the residence of M. Cochin, a distance of about one mile. Detachments of mounted republican guards preceded and followed the procession. In order to prevent any possible disorder, but there was not the slightest attempt on the part of the crowds to make any counter manifestation. The clerical crowd subsequently followed Mgr. Amlette to the church of St. Francis Xavier, where the coadjutor celebrated a benediction service, at the end of which he thanked those present for the sentiments they had manifested and exhorted them to persevere In their attitude In defense of the lights of the church. As the coadjutor archbishop left the church the crowd of clericals attempted to re-form the procession, but the republican guards Interfered and ended further demonstration. Conrt to Take Hecess.

STOSE, THIS PEERLESS Nebraska Boy the Bright Particular Star of Base Ball Firmament. The statistics furnished by the officials of the American league should be In tensely Interesting to the critics of George A. Stone. For some utiange reason some people think It Is Jealousy In many cas.s u few of the wise ones cun t see anything real to Stone. Well, there isn't much to him; all he did last season was to lead the American league in butting, field .S.ei and steal mure buses than any other man In the league but two. His batting average was .3i8. And yet Cleveland thinks u could not use Stone. Why nut? He out plays, at every stage of the game, any mil l on the Lajole team. The fact Is, Stone has been criticised since his Hdvent Into pro fessional base ball as having a false posi tion at the bat and his position doesn't look to be the best, but when a man hats &. with a false position, what urc you going to do? Maybe It will be discovered after a while that all the other fellows have been employing the fals. positions and only Stone Is right. It is either that or tv-jt he Is a natural hitter he can't help hitting despite his fulse position. If the latter is it, what in the world would he do If he over swung around Into the cor rect position? How far In the rear would he leave the Lajoles then? Perhaps It is a good thing that some of the nifn who bat below Stone don't adopt false positions Clarke of Cleveland batted .XN, the same bs Stone; but the difference is, Stmie played In 164 games and Clarke only llfty-seven. Iajole came next, with an average of .HfS. It Is Interesting to note that not a Chi cago White Sox hit In the .300 class. Of the regulars lsbell was the top-notcher of the world s champions and he only batted ,LT9. Hahn, who hirrured the stultln' out of the ball In the closing games of I lie world series, quit with an average for the rrgu lar season of .221. The team average was the lowest of the league .!'. That makes the league something of a lot of sluggers. Cleveland led with .279. Roy Patterson finishes another season with the basement honors at the bat for the American league. He closes this time with .061. Every manufacturer of wheels In the United States is looking forward to a ban ner vear In 1907. and In this he Is amply Justified by the remarkable Increase In sales for the last three or four years. It may lie said, however, that even were the sites of blrvclen In the United States to double or treble that the present wheel-making plants would be found fully equal to the demand. Kven if we were to piw through another era of rank fadtsm It Is l 'ieved that pres ent manufacturing facllltief -taking ac count of much that has been d. vjnant for a year or two could handle the n.;reaed business nicely.
