Boston Transcript: The consist
ency of the popes in clinging 20 their
self imposed isolation in assertion of
their policy is impressive, for it entails
their refusal of the tribute which the
kingdom of Italy is willing to pay out
of respect to their spiritual character
Every year the italian parliament
votes an appropriation of s645.OOO to
be placed at the disposal of the pope
to maintain his dignity, and to be eX-
pended generally for the maintenance
regularly refuses to receive his allow
ance lest its acceptance should mega

i'm his own capital. This process OF
appropriation and rejection has been
kept up ever since 1871, when parlia-
ment guaranteed to the pope and his
successors forever the Vatican and
Lateran and Castel Grandolfo, and
voted the first allowance. The aggre-

ma results in the discovery of buried
village. The most recent discovery of
this kind was made by Frank c. Erwin
at his home, fourteen miles from Coch-
Use. Three miles from his ranch Erwin

- Washington special to the News
and Courier: An increase in freight
rates by railroads in the southeast is
confidently looked for by the inter-
state commerce COMMISSION anu ltduIlS
railroad lawyers here. Though nothing
could he gotten today showing posi-
lively that this would be done, there
are indications that the roads are
preparing to take care of themselves in
the matter. The belief is that before
