A report was current in Paris
some days ago of the attempted
poisoning of the Pope by the Jes-
uits. The report was telegraphed
by the Papal Nuncio in Paris to
Cardinal Nina, and numerous in
quiries were made of the Pope's
physician on the subject. On his
Holiness being informed of the
story, he is said to have called his
private chamberlain and said:
"Thank the visitors, and announce
also in the antechamber that 1 am
feeling quite well, and that the
poisoning is only for the present a
pious DESIRE" According to the
Pail Mall Gazette, the report
seems, however, to have made an
extraordinary impression at the
Vatican, aud the food introduced
and cooked is examined with
scrupulous rigor. Speaking
quietly of the matter, the
Pope observed: "The Jesuits
are too wise. Were they to at
tempt and succeed, they know that
the crime must be traced home to
them, and that my successor would
pay my debts to Them" The
Jesuits have, meanwhile, presented
their ultimatum to the Pope, de-
manding to be reinstated in their
old position, and to have their
share in the government of the
Church, pointing out the benefits
to accrue from their support and the
damage they are still capable of
doing. The Pope yields not an
iota. He says: "Let friars act
the friar, and not meddle with
mundane affairs.v
