 A. In the first place, the enormous indebtedness the government would have to assume in order to buy them, and, second, the question as to whether politicians could manage them any better than the present owners. CD Germany and Russia own railroad lines, but conditions are so different there and here that no field is afforded for comparison. (2) About fifteen hundred million dol lars. (4) As speculative invest ment the postoffice department can not be said to have been successful. It was never intended to be that.

THE DIAMOND.
Harry Puliam Has an Interview
 With the Pope.

For the first time in the history of
 baseball the head of the National lea
 que has been received by the pope of
 Rome. That honor was conferred up- on Harry Pulliam. who is now tour ing Europe. and in a long letter Pres ident Pulliam describes the cordial manner in which he was received and feels justly proud of the honor he enjoyed in meeting his holiness. His letter in part follows: His Loli ness was attended by two court chamberlains. two prelates robel in purple and two officers of his body guard. At the coming of the pope all present knelt and each in turn was visited by the pope. who made the circuit of the room. He gave his hand. on which was the papal ring. to each one. Here and there he stop ped to say a word or two of cheer. his face all the while beaming with benevolence. The presence of this kindly and gentle whlte-robed figure so impressed some present that wo- men. and men also. all around me gave way to tears.

writers of McClure's staff have work ed with her to make this story ac- curate. fair. unbiased and complete. In view of the fact that for some months the press has been full of di- verse and conflicting news and state ments regarding Mrs Eddy, 1t is evi- dent that accurate knowledge con cerning her is difficult to obtain in a short time. Consequently McClure's long and thorough preparation of It's series will give us for the first time true history and account of her and her cult.
 Carl Schurz's "reminiscences of a long life will be continued. An indi- cation of the timeliness of these rem iniscences and the reawakened na- tional interest in Carl Schurz memor- ial meetings held recently in the ci- ties. and the memorial movement started which proposes to raise S2J0,- O0O. and to erect Carl Schurz me mOrial us a tribute to his great ser vice to the progress of our country.
 William Allen White, Samuel Hop kins Adams. Burton J. Hendrick and George Kibbe Turner will also con- tribute to McClure's powerful articles on present day topics. conditions and men of national interest. These writers are big men and the work of each one aside from its literary achievement is compelling. whole some factor in the regeneration which these United States are now under going.
 George Kennan who won his spurs by his remarkable series on Siberia and Russia's exile system has been added to McClurc's stan. The results of his recent investigations and work will appear at an early date.
 Ellen Terry contributes an intimate history of the English drama of our day. This writing teens with anec- dotes and incidents from the lives of great actors whom she knew inti- mately. From these droll. amusing and interesting happenings we can understand why these men and wo- men of genius became loved and fa- nous.
 For the story readers products of all McClure's fiction favorites will ap- pear and a large number of writers who have hit recently. Such we'll known names as Joseph Conrad. Mary Stewart Cutting. Perceval Gib- lon. Viola Roseboro. Q. Henry. Myra Kelly. Rex Beach. Mrs Wilson Wood row and Helen R. Martin give lroin- ise of as god stories of various sorts as any reader could wish
