ROME, June 9.—Pope Pius is showing his powers of organiza- tion and economy even in sm: matters, drawing the pursestrings of the Vatican much closer than his_predecessor. Benedict, XV approved with slight examination the estimates for upkeep, furniture and repairs, especially for the apartments of the high prelates and officials of the Apostolic palace. Pius has fixed 500 lire, equal to about $26, monthly for ordinary small re- pairs, and has appointed a com- mittee, consisting of Cardinals Gasparrl, De Lai and Sbaretti, to examine every detail and see ‘whether it is absolutely necessary.

PEKING, June 9.—Two things stood out today as indications of hope for| the carrying through of the central China leaders’ plans for unification of China—military successes in the north, which perhaps will release enough of Gen. Wu Pel-fu's troops to enable him to make a strong demon- stration against the south China forces of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, and un- official word from Tientsin that Li Yuan-hung was wllling to modify the terms on which he would accept the presidency of the Peking government. Against this were evidences from Canton that Dr. Sun daily Is fortify- ing his position at the head of what he contends is the only constitutional sovernment in China, while the lack of .a president has created a situation regarded as_threatening to plans for a reunion of north and south China.
