POPE AND EMPEROR.
Meeting of Germany's Ruler with tho
Prince of the Church.

ROME, April A.-Cheering thousands
crowded the streets yesterday to witness
the passage of the Emperor William to
lunch with the high dignitaries Of the
Vatican. Covers were laid for sixteen.
During the luncheon the emperor was ex-
ceptionally cheerful, and he ckatted with
cardinal Ledochowsky throughout the
meal.
At o'clock Empress Augusta Victoria
arrived at the legation. The presentations
occupied half an hour, and Immediately
after them the emperor, empress, their
suites and Herr Won Bulow proceeded in
the Prussian court carriages to the Vati-
can. The Vatican was filled with high
dignitaries Of the church and representa-
tives of the Catholic nobility of Italy.
At the door Of the fellow chamber their
majestics were met by the pope. He led
them to three chairs which had been
placed near the middle Of tho room, sat
down with them and conversed with both
for fifteen minutes. The empress then,
accompanied by the major domo, visited
the galleries, the Ducal hall, the Sixtine
chapel and the Others rooms In which the
art treasures Of the Vatican are shown.
Meantime the emperor remained in con-
versation with the pope. The interview
lasted an hour after the departure Of the
empress.
At the end of the interview the emperor's
suite was presented to the pope. Upon
leaving the emperor was accompanied by
the pope, contrary to the etiquette of the
Vatican, through the antechambcr to the
throne room. AS they parted the emperor
made movement as II to kiss the pope's
hand. The pope quickly withdrew his
| hand, then grasped the emperors and
shook 1t cordially.

OUR FINANCIAL POLICY.
The President Gives His Views On
the Subject.
NO FRICTION IN THE CABINET

Unanimous In the Determination to Keep
the Public Faith and to Preserve tile
Parity Between Gold and Silver and
Between All Financial Obligations.
WASHING TON, April ALTO represent
ative Of the United Press the president said:
"The inclinations on the part of the pub
lie to accept newspaper reports concerning
the intentions of those charged with the
management of our national fiuantes
seems to Justify my emphatic contradic-
tions of the statement that the redemption
OF any kind of treasury notes, except In
gold, has at any time been determined
upon or contemplated by the secretary of
the treasury or any other member OF The
present administration. The president
and cabinet are absolutely harmonious in
the determination to exercise every power
conferred upon them to maintain the pub.
lie credit, to keep the public faith. and to
preserve the parity between gold and sil-
yer, and between all financial obligations
Of the government.
while the law Of 1890, forcing the phr-
chase OF fixed amount of silver every
month, provides that the secretary of the
treasury, in his discretion, may redeem in
either gold or silver the treasury notes
ei'ch III Ity ihcut VI SllNtr purcuaSeSy yeJ
the declaration Of the policy of the gov
ernment to maintain the parity betw cen
the two metals seems so clearly to regu-
late this discretion as to dictate their re-
demption In gold.
"Of course perplexities and difficulties
have grown out of an unfortunate financial
policy which we found in vogue. and ON.
barrassments have arisen from ill advised
financial legislation confronting us at
every turn; but with cheerful confidence
among the people and patriotic dispose
tion to cooperate, threatened dangers will
be ayerted pendingN legislative return to
a better and soundcr financial plan.
'The strong credit OF the country, still
unimpaired, and the good sense of our
people, which has never failed in time of
need, are at hand to save us from disaster"
