ROME, July 1.-THE events OF the
last week have served to explode the
story that has been current for n
number of years to the effect that
Pope Leo XlIl. had erected for him.
self a magnificent tomb as his last
resting place. This tomb was fire.

This story was so generally cir.
culated that in many quarters it was
accepted as truth, despite the fact
that until his fatal Illness the Pope
had never been known by his most
intimate associates of the vatican to
express his preference as to. his final
resting place 1t was supposed by
many who had enjoyed his friendship
and confidence that his preference
was for the splendid new besilica
erected during the last fifty years
outside the walls of the city upon the
spot where st Paul, the Apostle. is
| supposed to have been buried. Plus
| IN. raised most of the money and did
| most of the work. and the church was
completed and decorated under the di-
rection of Leo Kill, although strange

he remained a normal prisoner in

he was in Rome most of the time. he

enough to go out and inspect the new
| church which is a mile or so beyond
the city gates Near by is a curious
little chapel, erected three or four
hundred years ago to mark the spot
| where St Peter and St Paul had their

other before going to martyrdom

Paul in which he took so great an

st. Laurens. in the most disreput-
able part of Rome. near the GENE

in the world. The sarcophagus is a
very plain piece of marble, severe in

Shortly before he was taken i'll
| Pope Leo XIII. expressed to Cardinal
| Satolli his wishes in regard to his
funeral and burial, and it is probable
that he indicated in his will the same
desire as to where he would like to
| lie, though it is possible that a number
of years may elapse before the final
disposition of his remains is made.
| Thus. 1t was not until 1882, many
years after his death, that the remains
