FAvA MAY MOI RETURN.
1t Is Intlmated That the italian Embas-
sador May Be Retained In Rome.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-It is believed
here that Baron Fava the Italian embas-
sador, who left New York for Rome on
Friday, will not return to Washington. He
notified Secretary Olney few days ago
that he had obtained leave of absence for
three months. In the meantime the Ital-
ian embassy here will consist Of only one
member, Charge d'Affaires Count Vinci
The Italian ambassador has recently
been severely scored in the chamber of dep
uties on account of the inactivity of his
ministry here. One of the sources of griev-
ance was the marked honors paid to Car
dinal Satolli and Mgr. Martinelli The
government at the Quirinal is quick to re-
sent a fancied advantage gained by the
Vatican in a country where the united
kingdom has its representative.
Cardinal Satolh left the United States
with quite blaze of glory The commit
tee of gentlemen who met Mgr. Martinelli
on his arrival in New York cabled to Car
dinal Rampolla that the delegate had ar
rived safely and had been accorded the
highest official hon0rs both in New York
and in Washington" The dispatch also
said that an "official boat" had met the
papal delegate in New York harbor and
escorted him up the bay.
This cablegram, which was printed in
the italian newspapers greatly incensed
many of the anti-Vatican deputies.
The fact that the 'oflicial boat that
met Mgr. Martinelli was the revenue steam
or that meets all incoming vessels was not
explained to the irate deputies.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Sept 16.-The market
closed this evening with a general level
of prices lower after a day of great ir-
regularity and constant movement up
and down of the whole list over a narrow
range. Qnite a large number Of shares
showed small fractional gains and few
stocks showed notable rises, but the
Changers. Vanderbilts, trunk lines and
rans-continental lines as whole de-
clined in value during the day. This is
true, Notwithstanding the fact that Lon
don was a buyer of favorite stocks all
day and all the general news as to i'm
proving business and increased earnings
of railroads continued to favor advanc-
ing prices. Prices were in fact higher
at the opening, but liquidation quickly
set in and prices generally receded. The
closing market of accounts of failed
firm under the rules of the stock eX-
change had something to do with the I'M
dertone Of heaviness which was manifest
all day. The fear Of interrupted traffic in
the South from yellow fever, also de-
pressed the price Of railroads in that re-
gion and alphabetically in the whole
list. The steady tone manifest in the
exchange market early in the day had
the effect of discouraging hope Of the
early importation of gold, and this had
it's influence in aiding the reaction. This
had the greater effect because Of the
tendency of the money mar
let, asking rates for call loans being as
Ugh as 21a per cent. The marked weak
