ON the highest authority that the Pope has
Owen special power 10 Monslgnor satolli,

PROPOSALS submitted by Molsignor Satolli.
The Pope. Cardinal Rampolla, papal secrree-
tary Of State, and Cardinal Ledochowski;

THE assistance Of these two church.

Father Ducev for his part IN the marriage,

Father Ducey has been the clerical adj
wiser of Mrs. James g.. Blaine, Jr., who is

the divorce proceedings, and Mrs. Blame,
Jr, was not entirely in sympathy with the
idea of violating a rule of her Church. My
