$50 A. M.-Premiere Zanardelli had
long conference, Friday with the
minister of justice, Signor Circou--
| Corfu, under whose jurisdiction are all
religious affairs in Italy, about the
eventual right of veto which the 1tal-
ian government might exercise at the
next conclave.
Three Catholic powers, Spain, France
and Austria, enjoy this privilege,
| termed the fright of exclusion" which
entities them to veto the election Of
candidate who IS not a persona grata
| to their Governments.
In such case power which may
desire to prevent the election OF GER
tain candidate deputies a cardinal Of
it's nationality to announce the objec-
| ton at the conclave; but the announce
| ment must be made while the scrutiny
is going on, before the candidate has
| received the majority of votes required
to elect otherwise the protest would be
invalid.
| This right has been regarded as eX-
| tremely important, especially In the
| Middle ages, when Italy, being the
largest field of action for France, Aus
| tria and Spain, the choice of Pontlif
was question of supreme Importance
as he played leading part in their dis
putes.
| Italy claims the right referred to as
| the heir of the kingdom of two Sicilies,
! which enjoys the right, but Italy dld
not exercise it in the last conclave
| and may perhaps find it difficult to do
so now, az no Italian cardinal, even
| among those who are most conclliato-
ry, would undertake to represent unit
ed Italy which Is considered by the
| church to have usurpcd the temporal
sovereignty of the Papacy, to be mere
ly a spiritual power, which enjoys I'M
der Italian law complete liberty and in
dependence, and which can without po-
litical Intervention exercise its minis
try in Rome, the capital of the king
dom.
| Portugal also claims to be entitled to
veto the election of an undesirable car
dinal to the Papacy; but her right has
never been acknowledged.

claves respectively, to prevent the cleo

two cardinals, Gayruck and Ganglbiur,
deputcd for the task, both arrived too
late.

was successfully employed was Ill 1872
