PERSIC0'S REPORTS
On His oniclai Mission To Ireland Not TO
lie Divulged.

On His Oncial Mission tn Ireland Not To
he Divulged.
ROME, January ga general belief has
prevailed here that Mgr Psrsico's secret
reports to the Pope on his eptcial mission
to Ireland would be published during the
first week of the new year. Statements
have been msde from time 10 time on the
alleged semioflicial authority OF the vati-
can, that the report might be expected in
January, and that il would deal very
harshly with the Irish people and display
great severity with he parish priests, who,
II is claimed, assisted in carving ON the
plan Of campaign. But word has now
btel quietly passed aound 10 the effect
that Mgr. Persico's report will remain Sc
cret. Rumor has it that the Pope has re
ceived sound informstion fIom the Irish
Archbishops and Bishops about the public
sentiment in that country, and that he
concludes il 10 be unwiss TO do anything
further TO irritate the people.
The Enquirer correspondent sought TO
obtain the iscts from Mgr. Persico himself,
and called on the right reverend prelate at
Cappacine Monastery, where be is staying.
He was very courteous, and said that he
knew nothing whatever about TIE public
rumors aud coDjsclure3 concerning the
publication Of his report ~ made my re-
port to the Pope, he said, 'aud His Holi-
ness is quite satisfied with IT, SO far as
am concerned my mission is ended. BIT
DO not believe that my report will be pub.

"thst it will be al lcng time before matters

Il am certain that il they did get II things

than they do now. At least the govern.
ment might try it and see how it works. u
II was esionished TO find," continued
the MonsiguOr, that the masses Of Irish
people have formed a very mistaken idea
about the Pope. They think that he is
using his influence agsins them in manner
that tends 10 menace Ireland's future pros
perity. This is not 40. His Holiness il

state Of the lower classes of the people o.
Ireland. and ia continually urging th,

little more than they do. That is all an

BLAINE Has GOT 1T.

Republican Senators In Washington Firmly
the Premiership.
WASHINGTON, January 6-The Repb-
lican members OF the United States Senate,
who, it is well known, are almost without
exception opposed to J. G. Blaine as par y
leader, have heard some stsrtliug
and unpleasant news from indianapolis,
aud they talked of nothing else.
The reason for the depressed appearance oi
Senator Hiscock upon his return from
indianapolis yesterday, and the salisiac-
tion expressed by Senator Plgmb at the
same time, we're explained yesterday after
noon by a report that wyat swiftly
from one Senator 70 another. 1t
was that President-elect Harrison hes prac
tically determined that he csonot escape
the necessity Of Offering Mr. Blaine seat
in the Cabinet. This is not Tumor, bat
fact. General Harrison said as much Ia
one of his Senatorial callers and 1t was
commonly talked among the Senator'S yes
terday in the n private conversations.
Ct1hlOg WIN IL QUO VI M. DidlHt
most bitter opponents said that from the
manner in which the information was
conveyed to them there eau be little doubt
that unless Gen. Harrison with the next
few weeks fnis some way nOg unforeseen
to arrange conflicting intsrs, he will offer
10 Mr.. Blaine the post OF Secretary Of
State.
The particular causo Of Hiscock's oisap-
poiGtment is found in the fact nat if Mr..
Blaine goes into the Cabinei Mr. Platt
will remain out Of it. Mr. Harrison told
bis Senatorial callers that while he did
not at first look fsvorably upon
the plan of pnttiDg Mr.. Blaine into the
Cabinet, he hsd, after i;teniDg to all
the appeals made him, partially at least
determined that ooly By Mr.. Rlains's ap-
poin,ment could all factions o the party
hs hr,rght into h7rmope. ele Blaine
men, he said, are numerous and clamOrous,
and it would be a good stroke Of policy to
get rid of them all by appointing Blaine,
and then telling them that the debt be-
tween him and the Blaine people was paid.
