Among other speculations it is given out that Cardinal Gibbons is te have the tiara now worn by Leo XIII. There is not the faintest shadow of foundation for such a prediction. The college of cardinals is now, as it has been for several centuries, overwhelmingly Italian. It does not stand to reason that a for- eigner, and especially an Americau, would stand the slightest chance of se- lection.
