Report That Pope Repealed Decree,

Rome, July 2S.- The report that the
Pope has repealed the decree Ne
temere" is absolutely unfounded, nor
is it likely to be ever revoked, as it
embodies provisions. Which have gov
erned the church procedure for two
centuries. It is probable the misun-
derstanding with respect TO the repeal
of the decree arose through the sus
pension of the provision relating to
mixed marriages in Germany and
Hungary The other provisions of the
me temere," however, are in full
force in those two countries, while in
the United States all the provisions of
the decree, without exception, are still
in force Thus a marriage between
Catholic and Protestant with the sane
