THE SACRED COLLEGE
CARDINAL LOUIS OREGLIA PRE-
SIDES AS DEAN.
Three Orders Compose the Highest
Governing Body-only Two Eng
nsh-Speaking Members to Attend.
From the Baltimore Sun.

| sixty four cardinals of three orders-cardf-
| nal bishop, cardinal priest and cardinal
| deacons. The order OF cardinal bishops is
complete. two of these being brothers. Sera-
| fino and Vincent Vannutelh. The others are
Oreglia Mocenni. Asiiardi and Satolli. The
| college when complete consists OF seventy
members, six cardinal bishops. fifty cardi-
nal priests and fourteen cardinal deacons.
Only two living cardinals are absent from
the conclave, Celesia of Palermo. who IS
ninety years old and is sick, and Moran OF
New South Wales, who was unable to reach
Rome in time.
The cardinal bishops occupy the suburban
sees Of Rome. which are Ostia and Velle-
tri, Porto and Santa Ruflna Albano Fras-
cat, Palestrina and Sabina. The cardinal
priests take their title from the titular
churches to which they are appointed: the
cardinal deacons are appointed to other
churches. called "deaconrtes."
The first cardinal bishop Is dean of the
Sacred College. the first cardinal priest is
first priest and the first cardinal deacon Is
first deacon Of the Sacred College.
The dean, Cardinal Oregiia. has the right
to consecrate the new pope, and the first
deacon. Cardinal Macchf. the right to pro-
| claim and crown the pontif.
Probably only two English-speaking car
dinals will reach Rome in time to attend
the conclave. The recent death of Cardi-
nal Vaughan, who was head of the church
In England. leaves only one English-speak-
ing cardinal in the British Isles-Cardinal
Logue, the Irish primate, and Cardinal Glib
bons. The other English member, Cardinal
Moran. Archbishop Of Sydney and head of
the church in Australia, who left for Rome
eight days ago, could not reach the Eternal
City In time for the conclave. Therefore
the representatives of the many millions
Of English-speaking Catholics will cast only
Two votes In the election Of the new pontifr.
one hundred and forty four cardinals
have died during Pope Leos pontificate.
or the sixty-four now living only one Is Of
Pope Plus creation. Thirty nine are Ital-
Ian. eight are Austrian, German or
Moran and Logue-are British subjects,
hve are Spanfards one is a Portuguese.
| one Is of the United States, a native and
resident of Baltimore, and there is one
Belgian.
AT Pope Leos election, in February, 1873,
there were present a greater number of
cardinals than on any previous occasion
siXty-three Only four had been in a pre-
vious conclave, the rest being the creation
! of the ponticate then closed.
The London Chronicle calls attention to
| the fact that there is no cardinal now in
| England to assist at the pope's election,
| and states the curious fact that Cardinal
| Wseman never voted for a pope. nor did
! Newman, nor did Vaughan In this re-
spect Cardinal Manning was unique among
| Englishmen, he being one of the electors
| OF go XIII.
Cardinal Gibbons will be the first Amer
| lean to vote for a pope and the first cardi-
| nal ever to cross the to attend a con-
| Clave. On the death of Plus TX Cardinal
| McCloskey, then archbishop of New York,
| left for Rome, but when he reached Liver
| pool he learned that Cardinal Pecci mad
| been elected pope.
