The incident continues to be a live toplc of popular discussion and is emphasized by what the liberal press calls the new mistake of Cardinal Merry Del Val, who had Mefore prevented .the Choral soclety of Cologne being received by the pope be- cause the soclety visited the quirinal and sang before the Italian sovereigns, in spite of the fact that every year hundreds of persons are received by King Victor Em- manuel and. afterwards admitted to the presence of the pope. The Messagero today say “Within a few days Cardinal Merry Del Val has shown discourtesies to the most beloved American citizen and to a gather- ing of the most béloved persons of Ger- many and indirectly to the king of Italy As long as this young and audacious Spanish cardinal dominates the Leonine city, the Iltalian liberals must be on their guard.” the “rom the New.
