Whole Matter Explained.

The Outlook is authorized to say Mr..
Roosevelt had not directly or indirectly
communicated with the Methodists, or
any one else, and had not made any
agreement to speak or to receive any
body. He entered Rome with no ar
rangements of any kind save the audi
ence with the king, so that the Vatican,
in endeavoring to impose restrictions
upon him, acted before he even thought
of taking steps for any other engage
ments.

Roosevelt Gets Warning.

March 25 Colonel Roosevelt received,
at Cairo, the following cablegram from
Ambassador Leishman:
''Rome, March 25.-The rector of the
American college, in reply to an inquiry
caused to be made, requests that the
following communication be transmitted
0 you: The holy father will be delighted
to grant an audience to Mr.. Roosevelt
on April 5, and he hopes nothing will
arise to prevent it, such as the much
regretted incident which made the re-
ception of Mr.. Fairbanks impossible. Z"
Here was the distinct intimation that
Mr.. Roosevelt must restrict his liberty
of action while in Rome.

Causes Great Stir.

The failure to arrange an audience
between ex-President Roosevelt and the
pope, which was known only in certain
circles, is expected to create tremen-
dous stir here, as well as abroad, far
overshadowing the Importance of the
incident in which former Vice President
Fairbanks was the principal.
Although the negotiations were tech
nically between Ambassador Leishman
and Mgr. Kennedy, it is well understood
in Rome that Mgr. Kennedy was acting
nder the instructions of Cardinal Merry
del Val. The kilograms, therefore, were
in reality between ex-President Roose-
! welt and the papal secretary of state.

that that will be beneficial to the
