OMITTED FROM PAPAL LIST.
Four Occupants of Office Declared to
Have Lacked Title.
reign Correspondence of The Star.


ROME, February ), 1913.
The commission Of historical criticism.
of which Cardinal Ferrata is president,
has for some time been occupied with the
history of the Popes in the ninth and
tenth centuries. AS a consequence of
it's researches the commission has struck
out Of the list of Popes four names on
the score that there is no genuine hstori-
cal evidence that their bearers had any
right to the title. These are: Boniface
vi, Boniface VII, John XVI and Benedict
X. The first of these, Boniface VI, is
supposed to have died fifteen days after
his election in S97 to the papal chair.
Boniface VII, 0s4-9sJ, termed by some
authorities anti-pope. owed his title to
doubtful election before he was COMPEL
ed by d popular uprising to flee from
Rome and take refuge in Constantinople.
der of John XIV. who had been elected
i'm his place, and apparently exercised the
papal power until his own death in the
following year. John XVI, Greek OF
Calabria, antelope. 99I-33s. owed his
brief usurpat ton of the tiara TO the UNI
popularity of Gregory and his own
treacherous compact with Crescentius.
Benedict " 1853. reigned only nine
months before his expulsion. He was the
last occupant Of the chair of st. Peter
whose election was made by popular
reclamation, OF. rather, by faction or
the Roman mob.
His successor, Nicholas III, inaugurated
the elections by the College Of Cardinals.

FLIER CAPTURES HEARTS.
Regard for Bielovucic Leads to
Amusing Incident in Milan.
nondence of The Star

Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.
MILAN, February I. 1918
The airman. Bielovucic. by his flight
across the Alps. captured the hearts OF
the fair sex in Italy. The fact was
demonstrated by an amusing incident
the other day. The rumor had gone
round that Bielovucic was to visit the
Umberto gallery. and crowds gathered
outside to gain a sight Of him.
Suddenly cheering was heard and
motor car drew up. out of which stepped
a Young man and lady. Immediately
another lady rushed out from the crowd.
and before any one could say her nay
she had given the young man two ardent
kisses, saying: Prom the ladies of
Milan TO the famous Bielovucic."
The crowd laughed, but the lady who
ACCOMPANIED the young man was highly
indignant. She lifted her umbrella and
raIned several blows on the back of the
enterprising lady Of Milan. The Milan
lady replied by pulling her assailants
hair.
In the police court subsequently, 1t was
explained that the young man who was
kissed was not Bielovucic, but a M.
Risette, newly married. His wife. who
accompanied him. imagined that the fair
but forward Milanese was one of the

CHECKS ON POSTAL BANKS.
Austrian Institution Is Supplying q
Need of Trade.
Correspondence OF The Star.

VIENNA, February - 1913
y remarkable Austrian institution, the
P'stsparkassc, or post office savings
bank, has just celebrated the thirty
years jubilee OF its existence. Nearly ten
per cent of the population have deposits
In this institution. averaging about
sl1..0 each. II may, therefore, be said
To have fulfilled its original object, which
was To supplant the stocking. the hole un-
der the floor, or the flower pot buried in
the. garden. which were until recently the
favorite Repositories for the savings of "a
large part of the population. In this
country. however, where the ordinary in
weston prefers to put his money on de-
post In a bank rather than buy stocks
for shares, several private savings banks
have still larger deposits than the state
Institution. because they offer a higher
rate OF interest than the 3 per cent
which is all the government will allow
4 more recent development of the nsti-
tuition. however, plays an enormous role
in the economic life of the country. This
IS the Postal Savings Bank check and
money order system. In Austria the use
Of ordinary checks on private and joint
stock banks Is very limited. To prod
a check book in order to pay for pur-
chase is almost TO stamp one self a swim
der. and checks are regarded with so
much suSpi ion that they are invariably
declined even by ones own butcher,
baker or landlord.

A Time of Trial.
From the Chicago Journal.

From the Chicago Journal.
The opening of the Panama canal will
be a time of severe trial for some in
competent states around the Caribbean.
For years and generations their in
competence has mattered little to any
but themselves. But their isolation ends
when the first ship goes through the big
ditch. From being in quiet eddy, they
will find themselves thrown into the very
center of one of the great currents of
world trade.
Commercial opportunities will knock at
every door. immigrants from a dozen
European countries will pour into the
now sleepy ports. Concessions, indem-
mites. rights. treaties will be in dispute.
How, will the governments of Haiti, of
Santo Domingo, of Venezuela, of some
Central American states meet the new
conditions?
1t will be new wine in old bottles. If
the bottles do not burst they will con-
tradict all human experience as we'll As

COMMITTEE ASKS MORE TIME.
Investigating Alleged American Sup
port of Mexican Revolt.

A resolution to extend until December
the period of activity of the Senate spe-
cial committee appointed to investigate
alleged support by Americans of the
revolutionary forces in Mexico. was in
troduced In the Senate Yesterday by
Senator Smith Of Michigan, with the in
dorsement of the Senate committee on
foreign relations.
The resolution states that the commit
tee has found it impossible to complete
its work. Testimony was taken along the
border last summer by Senators Smith
and Fall, and has been made public, but
the committee members thus far have
prepared no report and drawn no con-
illusions from the evidence they secured.
Senator Smith probably will have one or
two more witnesses before the commit
tee within the next few weeks.

BELFAST, February Z, 1913.
At a unionist club demonstration In
north Belfast Mr.. Thomas Sinclair said
the finances Of the home rule bill were sui
ficient to condemn 1t, and instead of put
ting an end to the Irish question it would
only be a starting point for fresh agita-
ton. Should an Irish parliament be
forced on unionists they were determined
to make it imperative in Ulster.
Mr.. George Clark. shipbuilder, declared
that the loyalists of Belfast were pre-
pared to risk all in defense of their faith
and freedom. A resolution was adopted
stating that home rule bill passed by
unconstitutional means was binding
neither upon the consciences nor the ODE
dience of the people.

strong terms to the democrats of the
House by Majority Leader Underwood,
who left his work on the tariff with the

enter the House and express his views on
the situation.
In the course of colloquy with Minor
ity Leader Mann and Representative Rod

against the appropriation bills, Represent
ative Underwood declared enphatically II
was not the wish of President-elect VIII
son that this years appropriation bills go
over to the democratic administration.
1T Is understood generally on this side
of the House." said Mr.. Mann, and also
on the other side of the House that II
was the inspiration of the democratic
President-elect to prevent the passage oil
