held in London on Thursday the discussion

~ hours without any solution for the
roubies VI the p0sitoa being reached. The

stress of impeCu alosity both aides have been
driven TO the sensible conclusion that the
only way cut of tho difficulty /. to make a
truce. so that tho Paris fund osn be released
by consent snt divided for parliamentary
purposes.

A remarkable isstsnce of this occurred at
CardInsl MannIHps iuucrsi on Thursday.
After lhN iopg service the coffin was taken
from the church, placed In the hearse In
front Of he orstory, the nobbishops and
bishops hurried into their carriages, anxious
to reach the cemetery so AS not to increase
the danger to the crowds waiting there in
'he cold and foggy weather.
The CsrIitgcs were kept waiting in the
i,smsI slr"rts FOR 80 minutes after the body
vas placed in the hesrso. This delay was
due To the prieots oi the orStory smuggling
the Duke Of Norfolk and the Marquis Of
Butte and several aristucratic isymen into
side room for luncheon, lesving the church
dignitsries shlvering in the cold. There IL
some warm talk shout it In Catholic circles.
