THE POPE's STONE.
An Event in the History of the Washington
Monument.

The gentlemen who represented the Monu-
ment Society at the summit of the shaft, yester
day, found fruitful theme of conversation in
their "reminiscences Dr. Toner was familiar
with the details of the breaking of tho Pope's
stone, for instance. In the course of a oonversa-
ton with a reporter he said
Every one has heard how the stone was de-
mOlished, but | can give you some details re-
garding the matter that will! be interesting The
Monument Society applied you know, through
the United States consuls. to all foreign Geun
tries to contribute blocks of stone with legends
and sentiments inscribed upon them, in order
that they might he inserted inside of the monu-
ment. The Pope sent n block of African marble
which had heen taken from the Temple of
Concord, and, as Ear as | can ascertain, was in
scribed with the simple words, Rome to
America The Know-nothing movement was
rife at that period of political history and
but little was needed to fonent the hatred
against all things foreign.
"a fanatieal minister in Baltimore named
John F. Weishample, wrote an address to the
Protestants of the United States against placing
the Pope's block in the monument. Such re-
ligious furore created that the stone was
taken by force in the night from the lapidarium
and destroyed"
What were the particular circumstances"
"The report published in the National ntelli-
gencer of the event says that one Sunday night
several men suddenly surrounded the watch box
of the night-watchman who was placed on duty
at the monument and placed rope around it,
besides piling a number of heavy stones against
the door. They took the stone from the
iapidarium, placed it on wheelbarrow and
went off with it in the direction of the
river 1t is supposed that the stone was
either demolished precipitated into the water
by the iconOclasts. The watchman, who was
armed, made no effort to apprehend the vandals
and was. after having been Investigated, dis
charged from his position
81 am not vandal but 1 have piece OF the
original cornerstone" continued DR.. Toner
handing a small package to the reporter. The
bandage was wrapped around the small chunk of
marble as carefully as the swaddling clothes
around the CHASTITY form of an Egyptian mummy
This chip was Knocked OFT the cornerstone
by Mr.. p. H. Mclaughlin, in my presence, when

The statute establishing the Indiana Uni
versity and providing for its maintenance was
enacted thirty three years ago. Circumstances
are widely different now from what they were
then, and the Auditor suggests that a modifca
ton or change in the management of the endow
ment, or what is known as the college fund, is
necessary for it's protection. Experience
demonstrates that the law is weak ia reference
to the appraisement of the value of the reality
mortgaged to secure loans from this fund. Large
losses have occurred by overapprasements, as
the sale of lands forfeited to this fund under the
act of 1883 will show. Now the Auditor has no
recourse under the law IN making loans as to
the value of the property but the appraisement
which COMES with the mortgage, and this has
proven in very many cases to be an unsafe
guide. The loaEs are limited to $500 to any one
person. Better security and more prompt pay
inent cound be obtained if the limit of loans was
considerably increased. A large amount Of this
fund is tied up in doubtful loans, aud in lands
forfeired for the non-payment of interest. from
which no income is derived in either case and
upon which there will be a serious loss. The
future management Of this fund should have the
consideration of the General Assembly.
The attention of the Legislature is called to
the insignificant manner in which the college
