Rome. March 27-Archbishop Ire;
land arrived here today from Paris and
went to hotel. Later he visited the
American college, where he was most
cordially received by the rector, Mgr.
Kennedy. The archbishop then visited
the college Of the propaganda, where
he was warmly greeted by the project,
Cardinal Gotti, and asked to be re-
ceived in private audience by the pope.
It is learned that the object Of Arch
bishop Islands visit is to see the pope
because Of the prejudice against the So
called Americanism in the church and
the petty jealousies aroused by the let
ter Of Ambassador Storer s wife to Sec-
rotary Merry del Val, soliciting a car
dinal's hat for the archbishop.
The pope s encourage has formed a
bad impression of Archbishop Ireland,
and as the pope is likely to be infu-
enced by the mistaken ideas Of the men
near him, the archbishop's friends,
notably, two cardinals, are striving to
remove the prejudice against him. One
of these cardinals stated that he felt
certain that when the pope becomes &C
quainted with the American archbishop,
he cannot but admire him. The visit,
therefore, is considered most oppor-
tune. ,..
The brother cardinals, Serafno and
Vincenzo Vanutelli, are doing all they
can in behalf of Archbishop Ireland,

LESS HAVANA TOBACCO
This Years Product Will Show a Fall
: ing Off Of More than 100000 Bales.

New York, March 27.Recent adj
vices from Cuba state that the tobacco
crop this season viii not be more than
35 per cent of the average crop, owing
to succession of heavy rains that have
beaten down the young plants in many
districts. An officer Of the Havana To-
bacco Co., which controls 100000 acres
Of the best tobacco land on the island,
in discussing the matter Yesterday, said:
eyes, it is true that the Havana to-
bacco crop has been greatly reduced
by the unusually heavy storms that
lowe swept across Cuba. The crop Of
1905 was 469,32S bales, while this year s
product will probably not exceed 23O,
900. AS the Havana cigar factories
alone require 100000 bales, it will be
seen that the situation is a serious one.
81 am not prepared to say what the
effect of the shortage in the general
crop will be on the prices Of cigars, but
it is quite probable that they viii be
advanced.

This is playing into. the hands of the

They believe that the right moment will
come in mid-April, and both sides are

is likely to be bloodier and more terri
BILE than anything previously witnessed
in this country.

PLEA FOR TARIFF
REVISION REJECTED
Payne Gives Massachusetts Men
the Last Word" Of
Standpatters.

Washington, March 27.-What may
be regarded the final pronouncement
against tariff revision at the present
session Of congress is contained in let
ter from Chairman Payne of the house
ways and means committee, in reply to
q communication sent him by Represen-
tative' Mccall on behalf of the Massa-
Mccall calls attention to the declara-
ton in the republican state platform of
Massachusetts for tariff revision with
adherence to the policy of protection,
and to the declaration in the republican
national platform regarding the read
justment of duties when conditions de-
mand, and entrusting the question to a
republican president and congress. The
MASSACHUSETTS view as presented is that
mand a change Of the Dingley rates,
which have served nine years.
Party Not in Unison.
In his reply Mr.. Payne calls attention
to the method by which the tariff legisla-
ton must be brought about--by con-
current view Of the majority of the
party in power. He next points out
that this concurrent view does not ex-
ist. The public, he says, is divided
into groups of members. each group
favoring the modification of different
schedules, while he says a majority of
the republicans in the house do not be-
lieve that there should be any change
at all.
| He declares that the people have not
| forgotten the disaster politically and
/ commercially which followed the tariff
change of 1890, and concludes with the
following reasoning: -.
Dingley Law Good Enough.
"Congress is not prepared to review
the tariff schedules in that calm, .u
dlcial frame of mind, SO necessary IL
the preparation of tariff act at tim<
so near the coming congressional cleo
tons. While it is true that some i'm
provement could well be made in tn,
rates under the Dingley bill, it wa
probably as free from defect at thu
time of its passage as any. new Law
which could now be enacted. During
the nine years Of it's operation the coun
try has enjoyed prosperity unparal
leled, prosperity which at the presen
time is simply marvellous. We may wei
hesitate to take any chance of inter
rupting the business of the country b.
a general revision Of the tariff and w
should never enter upon it until we ar
satisfied that such a revision will &C
complish results for outweighing an,
well-grounded apprehension of bushes
depression and consequent evil result
which would come even temperate,
from such revision.'

cation is not now interpreted In the
light in which he read it. The letter
was referred by the president to the
state department as in the rule with
curious and unique productions of this
kind, and Mr.. Heggen was officially in
formed that "there is no statute re-
garding a method for the remuneration
of American citizenship in the United
States, and the executive department Of
this government is unable to take cog
nizance Of the resignation you send.
1t is suggested by the department,
however, that Heggen may find relief in
the courts.
