LONDON. Jan. 2G Thursday The
Rome correspondent of the Times is in
formed from a trustworthy source that
the conclave will probably be postponed
owing to difficulty in completing ar
rangements i'm time.
1t becomes more certain daily that the
main issue OF the election will be the
Roman question, the correspondent says.
Several Cardinals support the policy OF
reentering into ofiicial relations with
the Italian Government, and II is in
teresting to observe how strong the cur
rent in favor OF foreign Pope is to-
day. But the correspondent declares
that it is extremely improbable for
eigner will be chosen, since the war pre-
vents the foreign Cardinals from uniting.
The voting, he says may be expected
to follow these broad lines:

diplomatic relations opened between
Italy and the Vatican, since France.

were positive instructions that no addi-
tlonal permits should be issued. The
Swiss Guards were BUSY keeplnse tne

The Sacred College upon learning that
the requests for tickets from diplomats
greatly exceeded the number allowed by
the constitution, immediately gave or
ders TO suspend all issuance of cards.

tials.

might be the greatest handicap to his
election by the conclave.

JESUITSs ARE SAID TO FAVOR
ELECTION OF PRO-GERMAN
Candidate Who Will Stand for Solution of Roman
Question and Activity in Foreign Politics Would Be
Popular in Germany, Says London Times

which has taken the place Of Austria as
tie greatest Catholic Power, would then
lose the advantage sne gained by send
ing an Ambassador TO the Holy See.
Therefore the French, Beleians and Poles
probably will vote with the 'irreCon
aoles'
Most or the other nations are in
favor of the far reaching foreign policy
of the late Pope. and as many of the
Italian Cardinals are decidedly SYM
pathetic to the central Powers the cam
didate who will stand for the solution
OF the Roman question and activity in
foreign politics may well be a man who
is especially popular in Germany. The
Jesuits especially are using their jnfiu-
once to secure the election Of q pro-
German.
Thus possibly there may be a foreign
Pope. The general expectation Is that
the British Cardinals will vote with the
latter group"

what Prospectus says.

The prospectus Of the Irish American
Line says in part:
"a regular service maintained be-
tween the countries will enable the
United States to open another much
needed market for her products, and
give the Irish people an opportunity to
show the people of the United States
the high class goods they can manu-
facture.
ireland is one of the most beauti-
ful. historical and interesting countries
in the world. and now that her long
fight has been won and an era or
peace begun. she will attract thousands
of tourists who have never set foot on
her wonderful shores. Many Irishmen
who have made the United States their
permanent home will. with their fam
lilies, undoubtedly make periodical trips
to the old country. and it Is to these this
company will especially eater by pro-
viding vessels in which they can travel
direct in comfort and at moderate ex-
pense.
''The present is an opportune time
for such a company to organize. Ves-
sells of suitable tonnage can be pur-
chased at rate per ton that viii
probably never again be possible. Coal,
provisions and wages have been reduced
to such an extent that the economical
working of the vessels is assured and
even at the current low freight and
passenger rates. substantial profits car
be earned"

iag on such project. One has al

taken an option on passenger ship
and has been busy sounding sentiment
among prominent men known to be
Interested in the Irish cause.
llThere is feeling an Irish steamship
line could be started with every ex-
ptctation of immediate success, in view
al the resumption of trade with Ireland,
the desire of many former natives to
Visit their homes and the appeal to pa
triotism would be carried by an organi-
zation supported by Irish capital and
flying it's flag.
1.-THE Irish American Line was incor-
Il3rated few days ago under the laws
a Delaware, with an authorized capital
"a 100000, divided into $4,000 shares
OF 5 per cent preferred stock of SIS par
value and $4,000 shares of common
sivck with SIS par value. The directors
are T. G. Mcnamara, M. D., p. j. Kill

Mahoney. A Mccarthy, t. O'Kane,
Frank j. Scannell Peter Banner and
adrian Griffin. Offices have been
opened at SO Beaver street. Mr.. Nc
Carthy. who is secretary of the line.
sttid yesterday that the purchase of two
$liifs to carry freight and passengers
bad been considered. Experienced steam
ship men of Irish nationality had been
ehgaged, he said, while of the directors,
Pr. Mcnamara and Mr.. Kilduff had be-
come known to Irish Americans as rep
resentatiye of Eamon de Valera.
VIII Not Sell stock.
ia somewhat different plan is being
followed by the other group known to
be interested in an Irish line. These
men are determined not to go ahead
unless they can be assured of suffi-
cient capital to carry the project through.
No attempt will be made to sell stock,
hlit IL Is hoped IL will be privately sub
seribed by a small number Of influential
men.
This group has an option on the
steamship New York, for years crack
flyer of the American Line. later bought
ny the Polish american Line and then
sold at a marshars sale to Worden G.
CO., steamship brokers of 39 Broadway,
the present owners.
N-A meeting will be held within a day
or two by. this group. to which have
heen invited more than twenty of The
best known Irish Americans in New
York. The preliminary steps have gone
for enough, it was said yesterday, so
Incorporation could be carried out i'm
Inediately, the name of the company reg
istered and the option closed on the
