Cardinal Oreglia Ia credited With the
Intention OF not leaving anything at the
Vatican untouched during his short Pc
Rod of supreme power. when. after tho
death OF Pope Leo. he will be Pope Car

That even the work necessary to build
cells for the conclave and the walling
up of the entrances. etc. shall not be
done by the regular papal architects and
engineers, Mannucci and Schneider, but
by person enjoying his confidence.
and that he has selected an outsider,
Engineer Ross, with whom he has al
ready conferred regarding the matter.
He has also chosen Controller Rossi
peeaspers to supply ALI the necessities,
such as food, medicine, the services OF
BARRIERS. and doctors, etc. required inside
the conclave. Naturally, these measures
taken by Cardinal Oreslia. while the

the government. and which turns mil

pawnbrokers to obtain money with which
TO buy tickets. Naturally the Pope's III
