ROME, (via Paris,) June 28.—The Italian press vigorously condemns the interview attributed to Pope Benedict by Louls Latapie and pub- lished in La Liberte of Paris in which His Holiness is said to have voiced a complaint that the privileges of the Vatican have been seriously curtailed by the Italian Government as the result of the war. The Corriere d'Italia declares that if the Pontiff does not categorically deny the words attributed to him they will have deplorable conse- quences, Secolo says: “The Pope has spoken strange words.” HAVRE (via Paris, June 23).— Doubt is expressed by the Vingtieme Siecle, a Catholic Unionist newspaper, of the authenticity of the interview reported to have been given by the Pope to Louls R. Latapie. In this in- terview the Pontiff is said to have as- serted that Cardinal Mercier, Arch- bishop of Malines. never had been ar- Fested. The Vingtiome Siecle takes Particular exception to this state- ment. The newspaper argues that Car- dinal Mercier’s coercion was proved by the Archbishop's own Latin pas- toral address to the clergy on Jan. 10, in which the prelate formally con- tradicted the statement of Gen. Von Bissing, German Governor of Bel- gium, that the Cardinal never had been prevented from exercising fully his ecclesiastical functions, ee ed TWO NEUTRAL SHIPS, ONE AN AMERICAN, ARE RELEASED BY BRITISH.

Mr. Lloyd George admitted that the shortage of munitions was serious, in view of the standard set up by this |war. The fact, he continued, was doubtless as known to Germany as It was in land “Because of the duration of the war, the toll of life and the amount of exhaustion created, ultimate vic- tory or defeat depends upon the sup- ply of ammunitions,” the Minister de- clared. “That is cardinal. Where jthe allies are making’ progress an any part of the line ft is due to their superiority in munitions. The allies have superiority in men, both in numbers and in quality. I have been told that the central European powers are turning out 250,000 shells a day, We can not merely equal, but if we are in earnest we can surpass that output. “If we can within the next few months produce as much ammunition as can the French establishment, the allies will have an overwhelming su- periority in the first great essential of victory.” | —_— > -—-- | MIDDIES HAD QUESTIONS ‘BEFORE EXAMINATIONS Two Tell How Nelson, Honor Man, Read Over to Them Answers in Advance, ANNAPOLIS, Md., June 23.—What | proved to be advance information on practically all of the questions in the last annual examinations in French and Spanish at the Naval Academy was given to several members of the fourth or lowest class by Midship- man R M.
