CARDINALS HAVE
UNDERSTANDING
-
Rampolli and Gotti to
Help Each Other for
Pope's Place
ANTE-RAMPOLLA MOVEMENT
If Gotti is Chosen He Will Carry Out
the Ideas of the Late Pontiff
Interest in the Election
is Acute.

Rome, July 24-The discussion of
candidates for the successor to Pope
Leo XIII. grows more widespread as
the conclave of cardinals draws
nearer.
1t is stated that if Rampoli finds
inn thee first ballot that he has a
considerable number of votes he will
try again. If he has a few votes and
one of his opponents has many he
will renounce his chance and he and
all his friends will support, first,
Cardinal Gotti, with whom he has
now come to some such agreement,
and an attempt to raise Gotti to the
supreme office. with Rampolla as
ally, will be made. This would mean
the maintenance OF Leo's policy on
exactly the same lines, and entrusted
to the same men.
But Gptti inspires great distrust
because, as he belongs to religious
orders, he would render the situation
OF the papacy extremely difficult at
the present moment, considering the
conditions prevailing in France
Spain and the PHILIPPINES
1t seems almost sure if at the first
ballot it is not probable thatt Gotu
can be successful this section OF the
Sacred College will decide ON Car
dinal Dipietro, one of Rampollas S most
faithful followers. The antl-kampolia
tendency has prominent candidates,
such as Cardinals Oreglia, Seranno,
Sannutelli. Satolli, and AsIiord
Cardinal Celestia, in an interview
on the spirit which would inspire
the conclave in the election OF a new
Pope, said:
Now, more than ever, we need an
energetic Pontitf, but at the samt
time he must be prudent With ex-
treme measures one cannot rule.
With the middle course there is al
ways something to gain. | have ex-
perienced this in my ten years rule
in my bishppric."

Suspended for a Month
He Sends in His
Resignation.
BERRIf. is NOW ACTING
Charges Against Owens Investigated
by Committee of Council and
Report was Rendered at Meet
ing Held Yesterday.

Assistant Chief Of Police II. E.
Owens, at the meeting the city coun-
Gil yesterday afternoon, rendered his
regignation. which was accepted, and
Police Officer Berry is now acting in
the capacity of assistant chief.
The resignation of Officer Owens
was brought about on account Of
the recent charges which were prefer
red against him by Attorney f. II.
Harris. The charges were invest-
gated recently by council and the
matter was referred to special COM
mittee.
This committee rendered their re-
port yesterday and recommended that
Officer Owens be suspended from duty
for thirty days, whereupon the officer
being present, rendered his reSigna-
tiOn.
The charges were brought against
Officer Owens by Attorney Harris on
account of Il little difficulty which he
had with negro hackman several
weeks ago. 1t seems that Officer
Owens WAS after one hackman for an
offense and accidentally jumped on
the wrong man, who, through the
attorney, preferred the charges.
Officer Owens has served in the Ca
pacity of assistant chief since the first
of the year and he / Is made a very ef-
ticient officer and it to be regretted
that he had the trouble.
OIlicer Berry is now acting in his
stead and a successor will probably be
elected at the next meeting of council.

HIGH TEMPERATURE.
Recorded by Thermometers in "CooI'
Places Yesterday Afternoon.


Places Yesterday Afternoon.
We are experiencing some genuinely
hot weather in these parts just now.
Yesterday was Il fair sample of what
old Sol can do when the notion strikes
him to steam things up here below,
and there are other days of the same
sort sure to follow.
The thermometers in various parts
of the city yesterday registered all the
way from 81 to 100 degrees, maximum.
The News Sanctum is one of the cool
est places i'll the city, having doors
and window-openings on every side, so
that breeze passes through if there
is breeze on the wing. An electric
fan helps keep the temperature down,
yet, in spite OF all these things. the
thermometer registered g. degrees
yesterday afternoon at 2:30 O'Clock. In
many places i'll the city the tempera-
ture recorded by accurate thermome-
ters was 100 degrees, and in some IO-
calitieS the mercury even went higher.
Fortunately, the air was dry and the
humidity was low. Had there been
ANY considerable moisture in the at
mosphere, prostrations from heat
would undoubtedly have occurred.
Reports from all over the country
would seem to indicate that the Sc
we're weather is general, and that we
are not suffering more than are the
people in other portions of Georgia
and in other States.

THE proposed advent of the Los Angeles Examiner into that field of journalism is already having it's effect on the other papers and especially the Times. Already about seventy subscriptions have been taken here for the Examiner and the list will grow rapidly. The Times may have been able to suc- cessfully cope with union labor, but when Hearst, the labor cham pion, thinks of starting paper in Los Angeles the Otis contingent be- gins at once to cringe and vail. Letters have been sent out broad cast by the Times requesting a con- tinuance of patronage, and when it is learned a subscriber is to be lost it is willing to present him with goods worth more than his paper, to keep him a reader. The next play of the Times for business will probably be to unionize the office. But the people are wise.
