Washington. Sept. 22.-The project
originating in London. of raising 81
00O,00o,000 to be placed at the dis
poSal of the pope, as Il fund with
which he could negotiate with Italy
for Il restoration of temporal power,
is regarded by leading Catholics here
as visionary and absurd. The re-
ported circular issued in London has
not been seen in this city, nor has the
subject come To the authorities in any
form. 1t is regarded as the emanation
either of some we'll intentiOned but
misguided individual, or else of some
one DESTROYS of arousing prejudice
against the church.
1t is stated no such plan is within
the bounds of possibility. Even if the
vast amount named were available,
as a mea of assisting Italy in her
financial embarrassment. it is said
that the restoration Of temporal power
involves sentimental considerations
which neither Italy nor the pope
would reduce To Il question of barter.
