Death of Prince Causes
a Stir Throughout Italy
Italians Fear That Inestimably Valuable Colon
ma Art Collections will be Sold

Rome, March Public interest from
one end of Italy to the other has been
excited to an extraordinary degree IN
the question whether the virtually ines
timably valuable art collection of the
late Prince Marcantonio Colonna. the
head of the historic house. is to be kept
intact or sold by the four members OF
the family to whom IL has been be-
queathed.
If the four owners transport their
shares of the collection To their re-
spective residences, IL is, of course, lost
TO all except intimates of the owners,
and that this should happen would be
considered public calamity.
No one who has ever visited the
Colonna palace can forget the magni-
ficent hall where the pictures hang, and
which was the seat unique and mem
orable, of the Postal Congress. 1t is
decorated with painted mirrors by

color landscapes of inestimable value

| the most attractive. historically, in
Rome. Alphabetically, outside it is
J plain 10 hideousness. but inside gor-
, geous in the extreme.
The history of the Colonna palace is

cause OF rejoicing TO those who love the
history Of their country.
After the fall of the Temporal Pow
or in 1870. the Vatican mobiles felt
strongly, and each made some visible
protest, each i'm his own way. Ii had
been the habit of the Pontih TO occa-
sionally honor his great mobiles by Il
visit, and in the imposing throne-roo
of the Colonna palace stood a gold and
red and brocade chair in which only
his Holiness ever sat. When the Pom
/ III became prisoner and his visits
ceased, this chair was turned towards
the wall, and from that day to this,
AZ years, 1t has never been moved:
there it stands, and there it will stand
