eveuness of the balance, Italy declares that her Adriatic commerce has amounted to a practical nothing. On the other hand, Austria, it is asserted, has tbrived on her unjust control and prevented fair competition.
 Under the spur of such possessions Italy dreams that much of the power of old Rome would return to her. Something of the spirit of that an cient mistress of the world has lately been born again in her It is show ing itself in a thousand and one plans, suddenly formulated and aimed at the acquisition of industrial, commercial and artistic greatness.
 The presence of the Pope in Rome apparently has done little to comph- cate the Italian situation. Benedict has made at leas; one direct plea and mot a few indirect pleas for general peace. His efforts have been dipIo- matically resisted by all the allies, iu- cludmg Italy. The peaceward m- qujries of the Holy Father, it is said, always meet with a unanimous allied response. "We are ready for peace, but only for an allied peace" the allies invariably are reported to reply. The Italian papers generally give but little if any space to the Pope's peace ward uttcrmces. Consequently they do not come into the constant thought of the people. The possibility of any marked effect is therefore eliminated.

This Is today's senu- ment in Italian diplomatic circles. It is repeated by King Victor in the field, It is endorsed by the people of the Kingdom.
 In Austria, Italy fights a hated and an hereditary foe. In Germany she opposes an industrial and commerci- al menace" The Italians are natw- ally Hberty-lOyiug. This characterize tic began their war and will continue it, they declare.
