ates being submitted 10 the Holy See
a. worthy and capable Of being made
bishops in the United States According
90 this decree the consultOrs and parish
priests who have the night 10 vote for
and present a list Of three persons for
episcopal appointment must not disclose
the names OF tho persons 40 designated.
They must take an oath Of secrecy, which
cannot be broken without mourning

Likewise all American bishops a. well
a. the officials Of the apostolic delegation
in Washington will be- held 20 secrecy. 20
that In the future the names OF candidates

Of this decree is obvious. since when the
names Of three candidates were known
tho appointment Of one 20 episcopal
dignity placed the other two IN a position
Of inferionty. as Il were. and may have
contributed 10 their names not being
presented for future appointment.
The main reason why the Italian Gov
eminent has not succeeded in combating
the SiciliAn Malta Ia that the police are not
only inefficient but often allied to the
Malta itself Last year the police inspec-
tor of CataniA reported that while pa
trolling the country commanding a squad
Of policemen. failing to capture the brig
and Canoelliere, for whose arrest the
Government offered a reward Of so. he had
been forced 10 order his men 10 fire on the
brigAnd. who was killed. The reward
was divided between the officer and the
men Of his command
II has now been discovered that the
bFigAnd was not killed in an armed con
hiCt with the police wlnle trying to svade
capture. but was murdered by a police
oonadAni. who obligingiy allowed the
inspector and his men TO take the credit
Tor the exploit and divide the reward. pro-
vided that he was released from prison
where he had been sent for other crimes.
Il seems that the police Magistrate a.
well a. the police inspector afforded pro-
lection TO the murderer and shared in the
reward
A. a result Of an inquiry the inspector
was indicted for murder. while the Magis-
trate and several policemen were charged
with making false report and with COM
