of Mr.. Roosevelt to forego an audi

subscribe to conditions imposed by
the Vatican, has created a sensation.
The unfortunate and unexpected Incl

cans visit to the Eternal City. Mr..
Roosevelt sought the audience of the
pontiff through American Ambassador
Le1shman, and received the reply that
! the Holy Father would be dlighted
to receive him, but the answer was
coupled with the expression of the
hope that the audience will not be pre-
vented by such regrettable incident
as made the audience of former Vice.
President Fairbanks impossible. Mr..
Roosevelt in turn stated that he could
not accept any stipulation limiting the
! freedom of conduct. To the latter
message of the Vatican he made the
answer that the audience could not
take place excepting on the under
standing that it be first made known.
To this, Mr.. Roosevelt answered
through Mr. Leishman: "The propos-
ed presentation is of course now i'm
possible" Mr. Roosevelt insists that
the incident be treated as purely per-
sonal, and earnestly hopes that it will
not give rise to any bitterness. He APP
preciates the attitude of the Vatican,
but he feels that as free American
citizen he cannot consistently take
any action that might be construed as
involving the limitation of the free.
dom of his personal conduct.

the ex-vice-president's address in the
, Methodist church and the consequent
concellation of his audience with the
pope is too recent to require recapit-
ulation, and, as everyone can easily
, understand it has had an influence on
, the negotiations for settlement of
, Col. Roosevelt's plans here.
