P, Bunny last night* in reference- to the matter. That gentleman'was vejv reticent on tho subject and averse te making anything further ♦ .. . "There is no authority/' he replied, "for saying that anything further -will, in the meantime, be sent to Rome until some communication arrives relating to ihc subject of the appeal." ~ , Do von know anything about the meeting to be held regarduip; tho proposed letter? "NOj I don't. Wo are waiting for an authoritative reply from Rome, as vte are given, to understand that Home deals very exhaustively with v any appeal, and gives a decision in the most formal manner under seal." * ~ , Havo anv further steps been taken in accordance with tho motion earned last Sunday' "Wo know nothing about the cablegram supporting tho change except what we r«id in the newspapers.
