THE VATICAN CH0|Rs

James Slevin and associates, who
are bringing for an American tour the
famous Vatican Choirs and notable
singers from the Roman Basilicas, an
nounce that this body of distinguished
artists under the leadership of Rt.
Rev. Monsignor Raffaele Casimiri,
special Chamberlain of his Holiness
the Pope, Canon of st. John Lateran
and Maestro of the Papal Chapel, will
reach ST. Paul Tuesday, November 4,
and will be heard at the st. Paul Au-
ditorium that evening.
The choir before leaving Rome was
blessed by Pope Benedict XIV, and the
Holy Father took such deep interest
in the enterprise that he bestowed the
Apostolic benediction upon all who
were connected with it. From Rome
the Choir travelled to Venice where
on the eve of their departure they sang
in historic ST. Marks Cathedral under
the patronage of the Patriarch, Cardi
nal La Fontaine, and also received his
blessing. 49,

America Loves Liberty.


It is because I have the funda-
mental confidence in human nature
and in the human being that we come
here before this court of the Ameri-
can nation. We come to you because
you have been in the past the cham
pions of liberty; we come because you
have, not merely by your traditions
shown yourselves to be such cham
pions, but recently you went into
war for an unselfish motive to do JUS
tice not merely to those to whom you
wished to be just, but to those to
whom you might not wish to be just.
And we come here whether you wish
to be just or not; whether your peo-
pie use all of the propaganda used
against us, we still come here, and
claim from you justice and nothing
more. (Cheers.)
| The phrase "To whom we may not
wish to be just" suggests that
might talk about our attitude during
the war When I speak of those who
may not wish to do us justice, speak
to those who have accepted England's
representation of us during the war
Let them be prejudiced against us;
but prejudice is no excuse for refus
ing to act Justly. And therefore, ever
without explaining our position-ant
l am not going to offer any excuse, be
cause we are not in any sense
ashamed, but we are proud that {
small nation, though we were, we toll
an empire we were not slaves; W.
would fight only in a just cause. W.
would fight for Ireland's cause, and i
could not be Ireland's, unless it was /;
cause of justice. Great cheers.)
We heard very early in 1914, afte
the start of the war, that this wa

 There is considerable interest in spe- calties, such as high silicon iron, char coal iron and other kinds. Ferro-man- ganese continues to be in active de-
 mand, although the inquiries this week did not total those of last week, at which time a heavy tonnage was booked. The interest shown in fluor spar indi- eates this commodity will soon be re-
