POPE LEO is WELL PLEASED
Report that he Is Not Satisfied with
Action Of Cardinals Denied.
STORY RESULT OF A MISUNDERSTANDING
SUGGESTION Made 60 vatican tins In
the Appointment OF Representa-
tive to Manila an Amer
lean BE Named.

ROME. July 19.-The dispatch from
Rome published in the Daily Chronicle Of
London today asserting that the pope is
Intensely displeased at the way In which
the commission Of cardinals has conducted
the negotiations with Judge Taft in the
matters Of the friars' in the Philippines
that he has annulled the procedure Of the
commission and has summarily dissolved
II, expressing the view that the American
demands we're reasonable and %signifying
his readiness to treat with Judge Taft
personally, Is based on an entire misun-
derstanding Of the situation.
tn commission of cardinals wal not
summarily dissolved. Its work ended with
the acceptance Of Cardinal Rampolla's
proposition to defer further discussion Of
the negotiations to Manila. AS all the
parties agreed to this 1t is absurd to say
that the pope is DESTROYS of personally
treating with Judge Taft. on the con-
trary, the pop has expressed the high
est satisfaction with the result Of the ne
gotiations. He said: Having started d.
rect relations with Washington is one Of
the happiest events of my pontihcate."
Interest in the Philippine question now
eenters in the appointment of ar apostolic
delegate to Manila, as 1t is considered the
selection will be an Indication Of real in
tentions of the holy see.
Governor Taft has unoficially intimated
to the vatican that the appointment Of an
American prelate would be preferred and
mentioned the name Of the Rt. Rev.
George Montgomery. bishop Of the diocese
Of Monterey and Los Angeles.
1t is thought to be impossible to select
Bishop Thomas o'Gorman Of Sioux Falls,
s. D., because Of his participation in the
negotiations here.
Doubt, however, is expressed about the
vatican appointing IN American, as the
opinion is expressed in pontifcal circles
that an entirely independent delegate is
required to properly deal with the ques-
lions at issue.
Omaha daily bee., 1902-07-20
Need for Delegate.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-No matter how
the negotiations at Rome end, in the event
that at the last moment the vatican on
cials should accept the principal PROPOSE
tion advanced by Governor Taft, 1t 10 be-
lleved here that It will still be necessary
for the apostolic delegate referred to in
Cardinal Rampolla's note to 60 forward to
Manila in the capacity Of an appraiser Of
the friars' properties.
Monsignor Broderick, private secretary Of
Monsignor Sbaretti, called at the War de-
partment today and had a conference with
Secretary Root, the substance of which has
not been made public. Monsignor Broder-
ick's principal, Monsigor Sbaretti, has been
in Washington for many weeks. He started
from Rome, preceded by a declaration that
he had been named as archbishop at
Manila. but when he reached Washington
on his way to the Orient, he was detained
at the Catholic legation here.
1t was the original understanding that In
his capacity Of archbishop of Manila, II he
was appointed to that post, he was to
negotiate directly with Governor Taft re-
specting the church matters in the Philip
pines. including the friars' lands ques-
tion. The outcome at Rome, taken In con-
nection with Monsignor Broderick's call
has led to the belief that Monsignor sbar-
ETH is, after all, to be archbishop Of Ma
Mia.
At any rate, 1t is understood that he Is
to continue his journey to the Philippines
and II he does not fll the post mentioned,
he may still be named as apostolic dele
gate there In view Of the experience he
has had in the same line In adjusting the
status OF the Catholic church properties In
Cubs with Governor Wood, while Monsig-
nor Sbaretti was bishop Of Cuba.
