France which had in union and con-
stancy proved their continuity Of de-
sign. Everywhere the crowds showed
the cZar and czarina the same heart and
will. What a spectacle! What a SYM
bol from which TO derive confidence and
hope,"
The speech Of the president was raptu-
rously apDlauded.

pathies, and the speeches made at Cher
5lourg, Paris and ChalonS have definite

London, Eag., Oct. 27.-The Pail Nal
Gazette his afternoon publishes a dis
patch from Rome, which says: ''The
presidential election Qn the United
States) is the absorbing topic at the
vatican, the explanation being the stride
which Catholicism has made in America,

est sources of income. 1t is recognized
that the standing danger TO Romanism
In the United States is the independence

the time Of Plus TX. The latter fully |
recognized that these bishops enjoyed |
greater power than their brethren else |
where and he showed that he understood
this by his witty answer to some Eng

Ieges. He said: Il am as you say. pope: |
VET cannot accept your request. But |
added the pontiff. with a twinkle in his /
eye, Il can show you how 20 obtain |
your desire. Go to America, for there /!
the bishops are greater than the rope" |
On the accession of Pope Leo matters
assumed different aspect. Fe charg- |
ed Monsignor Satolh with the duty OF |

good results.

campaign, fearing new division in the
ranks and apprehending az the same |
time that some of the more impetuous |
