Offering in his catalogue the potential

 An Answer Required.

Rome, June 22.-The reply of Car dinal Rampolla, papal secretary of state, to the presentation by William H. Taft, civil governor of the Philippine | islands, to the vatican of his instruc- tions from Secretary of War Root was received by Governor Taft last night. It has been translated into English and after due consideration of the cardinals S answer Judge Taft does not deem it proper to permit it's publication at the present stage of the proceedings be- cause he fears so doing might embar- rass the negotiations.
 Cardinal Rampolla has submitted a copy of his reply to Judge Taft to the committee of cardinals which was formed to consider the matter of the religious orders and other church af- fairs in the Philippines, in order to in- form them of the precise scope of the questions involved and upon which it is hoped that definite results will shortly be arrived at.
 It cannot be said that any conclu- sion has yet been reached but the gen eral tenor of Cardinal Rampolla's reply gives reason to expect that Governor Taft's negotiations will be entirely suc- cessful.
