THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, JULY 20, 1902 POPE LEO IS WELL PLEASE Report that He Is Not Matisfled with Action of Oardinals Denied. STORY RESULT OF A MISUNDERSTANDING Suggestion Made to Vatiean that the A ntment of Rep: nta- tive to Manila fean Be N n Ame ed. ROME, July 19.—The dispatch from Rome published In the Daily Chronicle of London today asserting that the pope is Intensely displeased at the way in which the commission of cardinals has conducted the negotiations with Judge Taft in the matters of the friars' in the Philippines that he has annulled the procedure of the commission and has summarily dissolved it, expressing the view that the American demands were reasonable and signifying his readiness to treat with Judge Taft personally, 18 based on an entire misun- derstanding of the situation. The commission of cardinals was not summarily dissolved. Its work ended with the acceptance of Cardinal Rampolla's proposition to defer further dlsc: on of the negotiations to Manila. As all the parties agreed to this it is absurd to say that the pope is desirous of personally treating with Judge Taft. On the con- trary, the pope has expressed the high- est satisfaction with the result of the ne- gotlations. He said: “‘Having started di- rect relations with Washington is one of the happlest events of my pontificate.” Interest in the Philippine question now centers in the appointment of an apostolic delegate to Manila, as it is considered the selection will be an indication of real in- tentions of the holy see. Governor Taft has unoficially intimated to the vatican that the appointment of an American prelate would be preferred and mentioned the name of the Rt. Rev. George Montgomery, bishop of the diocese of Monterey and Los Angeles. It Is thought to be impossible to select Bishop Thomas O'Gorman of Sloux Falls, 8. D., because of his participation in the negotiations here. Doubt, however, {8 expressed about the vatican appointing an American, as the opinion is expressed in pontifical circles that an entirely Independent delegate is required to properly deal with the ques- tions at issue. Need for Delegate. ‘WASHINGTON, July 19.—No matter how the negotiations at Rome end, in the event that at the last moment the vatican offi- clals should accept the principal propo tion advanced by Governor Taft, it is be- lleved here that it will still be mecessary for the apostolic dele reterred to in Cardinal Rampolls note to go forward to Manila in the capacity of an appraiser of the friars' properties. Monsignor Broderick, private secretary of Monsignor Sbaretti, called at the War de- partment today and had a conference with Secretary Root, the substance of which has public. Monsignor Broder- rifeipal, Monsigor Sbarett!, has been in Washington for many weeks. He started from Rome, preceded by a declaration that he had been named as archbishop at Manila, but when he reached Washington on his way to the Orient, he was detained at the Cathollc legation here. It was the original understanding that in his capacity of archbishop of Manila, if he wi appointed to that post, negotiate directly with Governor Taft re- gpecting the church matters in the Philip- pines, including the friars’ lands ques- tion. The outcome at Rome, taken in con- nection with Mofsignor Broderick's call, has led to the bellef that Monsignor Sbar- ettl is, atter all, to be archbishop of Ma. nil At any rate, It is understood that he is to continue his journey to the Philippines and if he does not fill the post mentioned, ho may still be named as apostolic del there in view of the experience he h had In the same line in adjusting the status of the Catholic church properties in Cuba with Governor Wood, while Mons! nor Sbarett! was bishop of Cuba.
