and having n serene confidence in the certainty
of a triumphal return and a reinvigoration OF
all the powers of the Papacy, temporal as wei
rs spiritual. At the same time, pamphlet
entitled II Papa rItalie," which Is reported
to have received the approval of the Vatican
and possibv the revision of the Pope himself,
sets forth the conditions on which his departure
from the Holy City may be indefinitely post
poned. These conditions of reconciliation De-
tween Italy and The Holy See are the choice OF
another capital and the emancipation OF Rome
from National control and its establishment as
a free city.
With such arbitrary conditions as these any
compromise between the Vatican and the
Quirinal is ont Of the question. The Italian
Chambers are controlled by intense Nationalist
and Radicals. who would not for an instant en-
terrain any project for a change OF capital ana

cannot remain united without having Rome rs

European conference to determine the position
of the Papacy at once is heard. There a1e
mysterious hints of an exchange Of confidential
dispatches between the Vatican and the Ger

ton that the Popr's independence is mol ques-

international issue OF the grarest Importance

was generally understood to beareiiection on the

not be persuaded TO change It's ancient
practice Of allowing the Speaker to name
