in question were the agricultural.

was passed by both houses. was We
toed by the President June II because
1t contained Objectionable legislation.

Senate after passing the House. at
1925 o'clock Monday. but through a
miscue by the Democratic manipula.

the President for his signature until
after 2 O'Clock. The Democratic lead

that similar measures have been ne
cessitated in the past because OF the
regular appropriations having failed
to pass Like conditions existed In

Every ground hog which wasn't afraid

The sun shone long enough to permit

new DELEGATE OF
ROMAN CHURCH IS
DUE HERE IN MARCH
Mgr. Bonzano First to Be
Elevated to Archbishopric
Rank.

Mgr. Giovanni Bonzano, the new papal
delegate to the United states, Is not
expected to reach Washington before
the middle of March, according to Mgr.
Buenaventure Cerretti, auditor and
charge d'affaires at the legation In this
city. Mgr. Bonzano was named to sue
ceed Mgr. Falconio upon the promotion
OF the latter to becomel cardinal.
Before leaving Rome for this country,
Mgr Bonzano will be elevated to the
archbihopric custom which was fol-
lowed with all his predecessors. This Is
done to give the position OF the dele
gate the proper dignity and that he
may rank with American prelates and
be clothed with the authority and prece-
dence to which the representative of the
Pope in entitled.
Familiar With America.
Mgr. Bonzano has never been in this
country, having been born and raised in
Italy. He has been rector OF the college
OF propaganda at Rome since 1904. He
sueaks English fluently, and Is said to
be thoroughly familiar with the Catholic
Church In America. His knowledge Of
America was acquired in the American
division Of the foreign office at the
Vatican
1t is most probable that Mgr Ger
rettt will be promoted soon after the
arrival of Mgr. Bonzano. He will re-
main at the legation until the new
delegate has thoroughly familiarized
himself with affairs and the task before
him In this country.
Mgr. Cerretti does not know in which
direction promotion awaits him, but It
Is q tbhe-honored custom of the Vati-
can to promote the auditor Of the lega-
ton after he has served number Of
years at Washington, and 1t Is well
known In Catholic circles that Mgr.
Cerretti has been very successful in
Mgr. Bonzano is the fourth ambassa-
dor Of the church of Rome to the
United States. Cardinal Satoli was first
TO hold that honor. He was followed
by Cardinal Marinelli. who, in turn,
was succeeded by Mgr. Falconio who
has since been made cardinal AL
though unknown personally to the peo-
Bonzano will become as popular with
Americans as was his predecessor, Car
I1inal Falconio.
Among the church dignitaries whose
names were mentioned in connection
with the legation here before the ap-
pointrnent of Mgr. Bonzano was an
bounced were Mgr. Cerretti, Mgr.
Agius. apostolic delegate to the Phil
ippines, who recently, died at a time
'AiN. laurent, Mgr. Stagni. Mgr. Ri
,dolf. papal delegate to Mexico, and
Until the arrival of Mgr Bonzano in
Washington. Mgr. Cerretti will have
charge Of affairs at the legation.
