The Next Papal Conclave.

A Rome dispatch says: A pivotal ques-
ton OF policy, both of the Italian Govern
ment and the Vatican. is as to where the
next conclave shall be held. II is declared
that Italy is instructing her representatives
abroad to prevent the conclaye from being
held away from Rome, and is giving as
surances that she will respect the liberty
of the conclave. In this way she expects
to demonstrate that the Papacy IS free IN
Rome and TO maintain the existing condi-
ton.
On the side of the Church. it is said that
the desire TO iberate the Papacy from the
status quo and to provoke final solution
of the long pending controversy with the
monarchy has modified considerably the
state of the Catholic mind since 1873, and
has rooted o conviction that nothing but
a coup detdt Will accomplish the desired
ends. And the action most favored Is the
holding of the next conclaye away from
Rome. Even conservative minds are said
to regard with complacency the prospect
of a conclave away from Rome and for
eign Pope as the most efhcacious means OF
safeguarding the honor and independence
OF tue Roman Pontlfl.
