The loyalists are now in undisputed

AMERICAN POPE.
Gossip in Rome Says the Way Is
Being Paved
For the Elevation of Yankee
to the Papacy.
STARS AND STRIPES
Shelters More Catholics Than
Does Amy Other Flag.
Membership Wealthy, Generous
and Loyal to the Church.

Rome, Oct. 3O.-Comments on the
approaching consistory, when seven
teen cardinals, including three from
the United States will be created, con-
tinue to emphasize the great signif1-
canoe of Pope Piuss decision to grant
America four representatives in the
sacred college. By some it is assert
ed that the way is being paved for the
advent of an American pope.
1t is pointed out that the largest
body of Catholics in the world is to
be found in the United States and it's
possessions, the Philippines, Hawaii,
Porto Rico and Guam. Not only are
the Catholics of America superior in
numbers but in deep religious feeling,
loyalty to the holy see and in wealth and
generosity. An Irish American pope is
suggested for the day when it shall be
considered no longer necessary for the
papacy to be held by Italians.
The American college faculty and
students are rejoicing and especially
over the elevation of Archbishop Far
ley of New York and Archbishop
O'ConnelI of Boston, as they are
alumni of the college.
The former was one of the original
thirteen students when the college was
founded by Pope Plus TX. The OBJ
jections made by some that Mgr. KEN
nedy, rector of the American college,
being an American, can not be ap-
pointed apostolic delegate at Washing
ton are confuted by the fact that the
present pope for the first time made
departure from the rule, nominating
Mgr. Fruehwirth as papal nuncio to
Munich, which arrangement is work
ing well. Moreover, Mgr. Kennedy is
described as Romanist to the back
bone.
It is reported that Mgr. Santa Tam

cenzo Vannutelli to America on the

FaIconio Will Not Return.
Washington, Oct 3O.-Mgr. Diomede
Falconio, the apostolic delegate to the
United States. and Archbishop O'Con-
nell of Boston and Farley of New
York, official notice of whose selection
as addition to the college of cardinals
was received here today, probably will
sail for Rome not later than Novem-
Der 10.
Mgr. Falconio received his summons
today to attend the consistory at Rome
November 27. He does not expect to
be advisory to the pope. Rev. Bona
venture Cerreti, the auditor of the
papal delegation, will act IS charge
d'affaires until the appointment of an
ablegate to succeed FalconiO.
Mgr. Falconio said he hoped to be
able to sail by the date mentioned. He
