Jesuit Affair Constrains Inactive Conclave Writing
The London Evening Post reports on Cardinal Spinelli's request for the Jesuit affair to be considered separately in writing rather than in congregation. Updates from Naples mention a heat wave prompting social distress, while Madrid news indicates the sick king is out of danger and courtly plans resume. Dispatches from Schonberg note Prussian movement and clashes near Friedland as Harfch advances toward Landshut. Reports from Berlin reveal a conspiracy of deserters tied to arson plots, with authorities arresting many conspirators. Paris notes uncertainty over a French naval embarkation and a rumored discovery of an extinguishable fire, dismissed as improbable by critics.
