Visit of Archbishop Ireland Creates
"a Great Deal Of Comment There.

\ Rome special TO the New York Herald
says: Archbishop Ireland is the man of
the hour here. Everybody is talking Of
him.
Last Wednesday he was received by the
Pope. The Interview lasted nearly an
hour. Up TO the present Monsignor ire
land has declined 10 speak of his CONVEX
sation with the head of the Church.
There is great interest as 20 whether
the so-called American policy" is tri-
unphing and whether the Pope APP
proves or condemns the bold, liberal
ideas of the Archbishop. Another ques-
ton is whether Monslsnor Ireland Will
represent America at the disarmament
conference. II one may believe persons
usually well informed nothing positive
can be said on this subject for some
time
This" said a man i'm position TO

The Archbishop came 10 Rome en-

so has given the greatest pleasure 20 the
Holy See. He has been received with
?
Eal Secretary of state. the Cardinal Pre-
feet Of the Propaganda. and other Gigui-
tarits.
What has been said az those au-
diences Is not known. The Archbishop
refuses TO speak on the subject. but II is
manifest in many ways that he IS i'm high
favor with the Church authorities. The
Pope is distressed at the violent attacks
made as soon as the Archbishops plan

The New York Board Of Health, when
appears to be on constant lookout FOR
trouble. now lays the responsibility for
much sickness and disease at the doors
or. rather at the mouthpieces-of tele-
phones. The president Of that body thinks
the transmitters of these useful appli-
ances have been largely instrumental in
the spread of dphtheria, scarlet-fever'
and other contagious diseases. He is for
tilted in his belief by recent Investigations
i'm Europe and maintains that the matter
is one demanding the most careful in
vestigation. Public phones will be care
fully examined. Both the receivers and
transmtters will be tested with absorbent
cotton. which will be rubbed on the sus-
pected parts of the phones. The cotton
will then be analysed by expert bacteri-
ologists. and If the boards theories
prove correct the telephone companies
will be required 10 thoroughly dsinfect
the instruments every day.

change is demanded, not because the

whose life was largely insured The in
surance companies. desiring an autopsy
10 be made caused his body 10 be disin-
TERED few days after burial. "The
glass covering OF the coffin was broken,
and the distorted features of the corpse,
the position OF the hands and feet to-
gether with a number of blood-spots on
the face. showed that he was buried
alive" Physicians who have seen the
body are quoted as saving that Mr.. Quig-
ley was buried while I'm a trance.
The facts may be as stated, but before
believing we prefer to see a statement
from the medical men. under their own
hands and seals. For most people death
has terrors enough without creating the
fear upon ones part that he may be
buried alive.

ICE-CREAI FURRY.

Though western thermometers are now
lowering quite low, and ice-cream is
chilly subject to discuss, the manufac-
turers of this cooling luxury are now hav-
ing quite a battle over it in the turbu-
lent State of Illinois.
Some weeks ago a trust was formed for
the exclusive production Of the frozen
JOY" and a wave of CONSERVATION swept
over the feminine world. But consumers
of this shivery diet may now take heart,
for a rival concern has stepped into the
frozen field. A few days ago a second
trust. with a licensed capital Of $4,000,
announced its purpose 10 wage unrelent-
ing warfare on its predecessor.
1t appears that one J. ID. Collins, the
president of the first company, had some
dispute with its directors. and was. TO
use an eminently appropriate colloquial-
ism, frozen OUT of Office. With that
burning indignation which only ice-cream
manufacturers can feel, he organized the
rival concern, ana proposes to fight to
the last ditch.
Collins says he was "kicked OUT of his
first job because he took firm stand
against allowing some Of the factories to
use inferior ice-cream material and palm
IT off as the best. The manager OF the
recently-established corporation says the
original trust can cater to the customers
who want milk ice-cream," but that his
concern will get the cream of the cream
trade.
The feeling between the two factions
appears TO be very strong, but the Chi
caeo public. owing to circumstances over
which they have no control, will suspend
Judgment until next July.
