The vorson who is actig as the inter- nediary is 8 Roman prince whose father once occapied & high position av the vatican and whose wife is very clo Queen Margharitta. Ho has b charged by the king to discuss matters witn his foliness. According to trustworthy infor- mation ho has already had a short interviow with tho pope, who has assured him that ho is ready to enter pour parlers with a view to waking peace with Italy, it Rome is restored to him. He is said to have expressly ro- marked : ho real solution of the Roman question is the rostoration of Rome. This question ouce resolved, Italy coald devote herself to “the improvement of her finances and might aven disarm. No one wouid think of attacl tngg her. Iar from weakening ltaly, the res- toration of Rome would strengthen her. You 1ee we are quite ready to be reconciled.” Won't Get All Ho W The royal delogate was so astounded by this answer that he could make no comment, and left the panal chamber. The pope suiled when ho told the cardnals of what had oc- curred. But the nepotiations will not end thero. The pope, according to the diplo- matic custom of the vatican, will domand a great deal to obtain something less. Nobody at the vatican believes that tho talked of restoration of temporal powor s itwas boforo 1570 15 possible. The idea of tho pove is tnat reconeiliation is upon an- ather basis, how It is cortain that the court and the h are mutually preju diced; that they have fecliugs on account of supremacy and precedence. The pope sannot leave his pals ison without ruu- aing the risk of meeting the king in the street, Tho latter mizht feel himself abliged to uncover bis head, and bend the knee to receive the papal benediction, On ttie other hand the sojourn of the pope in Rome is disagreeable to tho pope, because of the impossibility of avolding a conflict. Proposals from the Pope, The diminution in the number of pilgrims to the city following the late disorder has made tradesmen grumble. The workingmen ara organizing and working to bring about a revolution which will sweep away ooth roy- alty and thopapacy. Recognizing this dan- ger, the pope makes theso propo- sitions: That Rome shall continue to be the cupital of a shadowy Italian kingdom: that the king should keep the Quirinal and come there occasionally; that part of the administration should re- main thero; that Parliament sbould be ovpened in Rome in presence ot the king, so that the nation should not have a pretext to protest: that the pope skiould maintain his sovercign prerogatives at the vatican and be ontitled to the existing benefit of extraditor- iatism and keep up‘his-householu.e The papal court’ wonld regain its former splendor orice it had ceasod to be emvar- rassed by the presence of u rival court. All points of precedence would be settled by a diplomatic conference. Tho policy of tho army and the muuicipal government would romain under the control of ltaly, but the pope would leave his palace when the Italian court was not in Rome, and he would regard bimself as being 1h his own city. The king would make Florence his headquarters and the heir apparent would {nhabit Naples, The other members of the royal family would make Turin their place of residence. Rome, it is thus supposed, would .get back its magnificence ana once more be- come par excellence the ecclesiastical city of Italy, much as certain quarters in most cities aro chiefly colonized by priests and pious people. This plan is the pope’s. It has until now been kept a secret. What hope it of being adopted is of course unknown, for there are countless interests and jealousies to think of. But if any plan at all bas a . chance of being adopted it is this one, The Buropean diplomatists are working hard to bring about a solution of tho irritat- ing question which is s0 dungerous 10 the religious peace of most of the powers, owing to the fuct thav many millions look up to the pope as their spiritual chief. Tho high Catnolic dignitaries (or at aill events the sardinals) are less conciliating than the pope.

Good Demand For Money Developed Dur- ing the Week Throughout Europe. Lospoy, Feb, 14.—During the week past there was a good demand for discount which was firm at2 per cent for three months, and 18¢ per cent for short. The Stook exchuuge loau rates for discount were 2 per oent. Tbe Russia and Aus- tria continued to buy gold, but the decline was moderate and did not affect tno situation. A report that £500,000 was coming from New York assisted to eass tho market. Silver was notably depressed. Tho news of inerease in the rates from New York caused a velupse to the previous lowest figure, with small chance of revival. The stapuation of business in India and the cessation of continental demand for silver will assist to maintain , this depression, and without there 1s some {avorable developments in the United States or a sharp revival 1o the cotton trade it will be difiicult to raise the value irom the present level.

The action was brought by Cummins upon coupons attached to bonds issued by said districe township, The de fendant denied the validity of the bonds un the ground that they were issued in excess of the limit proseribod by the constitution, which prouivited muvicipal corporations from incurring iudebteducss exceeaing b par cont of their valnation, The court sustained the view, and 1ts decision is naverse to Cum- mins. The territory of Dakota was under a hike probibition by act of coagress, which forbids any couuty or other political or municipal corporation incurring debt in excess of 4 per cent of its assessed valuation. This act of congress stood 1n_lieu of a constitution and was the snpreme law of the territory. Not- withstanding the prohibition, however, the county zommissioners Incurred indebtedness on bohalf of the country to the amonnt of 250,000 or more in excess of this amount and then issued 5 per cent bonds to the amount of #00,000, ostensibly to fund the 10 per cent bonds outstanding, but really to pay off illegally issued county warrunts. The result hus been an increase of 50 per cent in the county’s bonded indebtedness m plain violation of the act of congress prohibiting such increase, 'The treasurer is to be at once enjoined from paying any of tho coupons _attacted to these bonas and suit brought to have their issue declared 1ilegal, The effect will be to to greatly lessen tho county’s burden of debt and to reduce taxes not less than 50 per cont.
