MRS. ROBINSON
SP0ILS A PLOT
Presidents Sister Prevents Visit
to Italy Being. Used in Ire
lands Interest.
STOPS POLITICAL
TALK.
illustrates Plan to Bring Up Car
dinalatc at Audience With
Pope.

4 ROME, April I'D CELEBRATE effort has
been made to take advantage of the
visit to Italy of Mrs. Douglas Robinson,
sister of President Roosevelt, to .advcr-
tlse the interests OF an American candi-
date for a cardinals hat. So bold was
the attempt that Mrs. Robinson in the
presence of the Pope himself was
forced to protest.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robinson have now
gone to Castle Porziano, on the sen
shore, near ostia, near which royal
hunting-lodge is situated, and whore
King Victor Emmanuel Will land on his
return from Greece.
Ambassador White. before his depar-
ture from Rome for Paris had been
informed of Mrs Robinsons coming
and her desire to be received by the
Pope. AS Monsignor Kennedy, rector
OF the American College, had already
left for Philadelphia for the golden
wedding OF his parents, Monsignor Far
reilly, spiritual director of the college.
undertook the arrangements, which
were continued at the request Of the
present Ambassador, Mr.. Griscom. But
1 in tho meanwhile Bishop O'Gorman, OF
Sioux Falls, arrived aud took charge OF
the whole affair. The impression created
was that he wished to monopolize it in
favor of Archbishop 1relands candi-
dacy for the red hat, which the bishop,
1t is supposed, came here to advance.
This aroused much gossip, as the fric-
& ton caused by the fact that a room
In the American College was refused to
Archbishop Ireland shortly after Arch
bishop Ryan stopped there, was still
fresh in peoples minds.
Mrs. Robinson Bars Politics.
The Robinson audience TOOK place,
and Bishop O'Gormnn had an opportu-
nifty to emphasize once more to Pope
Plus how grateful the American peo-
pie would be to see Archbishop Ireland
raised to the purple. Mrs. Robinson
3 did not conceal her disnpproval OF this
introduction Of the vexed question, say
ing in French so that the Pope might
understand, mo politics, no politics.
Ambassador Griscom was to have
given a grand dinner in honor of Mr..
and Mrs. Robinson, In which the high
est authorities In the state, from Sena-
tor Tittoni, Minister of Foreign At
fairs. and Count Gianotti, Project of tho
Royal Palace, to the diplomatic body
accredited to the Quirinal. were to be
Invited Bishop O'Gorman had also ac-
cepted an invitation, and his presence
would certainly have caused comment
In Vatican circles similar to that pro-
auced by the dinner given by Mr..
White year before, but the fire which
llnroofed the apartment OF Mr.. Girls
co1n Ii, the PalaZzo del Drabo, of course,
made the cancellation Of the dinner In
II ritation unavoidable.
