Receives Homage of Cardinals.
AS the new pontiff stepped from be-
hind the altar, the only touch of color
about him being his red and gold
shoes, he really seemed to be the en-
bodiment of his holy office His face
was pale and clearly softened by emo
ton. He paused a moment, as he
came before the expectant cardinals,
then seated himself on the throne
with hurried movement, as though
he had suddenly grown weak. His
back was to the altar and he was en-
throned to serve the so-called first
obedience" of the cardinals.
All kissed his hand and feet, while
he saluted each on the cheek with
the kiss of peace Then all broke into
scarcely an eye was dry.
Blessing of New Pope.
Plus x. then rose and in voice at
first tremulous, but gradually becom-
ing full and firm, administered the
papal blessing to all of the members of
the sacred college. 1t was received
with bowed and uncovered heads.
The fisherman's ring not yet having
been found, new one designed by
Camerlengo Oreglia was placed on the
pontiff's finger as symbol of renewed
power and evidence that the Catholic
church has once more a sovereign
head
After a short rest, imposed by the
fatigue and emotion of his election,
Plus x. joined his court in the ducal
hall for the solemn benediction which
he was about to give to the people of
Rome. The procession traversed many
noble halls, until it approached the
window looking into ST. Peters. From
below rose murmur of voices, which,
although subdued by distance, denoted
the presence of a large concourse of
people. The pope was seen to grow
pale, and then, turning to Cardinal
Bacilieri, who stood beside him, he
said:
"Now I understand the emotion Pope
Leo always showed when going into
St. Peters to have the eyes of great
crowd focused on him. 1t is almost
terrifying"
New Pope B1esses People.
Standing forward in the window, the
others having fallen back, he deliber-
ately controlled himself and looked
across the great basilica. Crossing
himself, Sarto raised his hand and in
a voice palpably tremulous, he said, as
soon as the cries from below gave an
opportunity:
"Ajutorium nostrum in nomine
DOmini"
TO this came in reply from thou
sands of voices the cry:

TRADE CONDITION GOOD.
Advices from Nearly Every Section
of the Country Say business
Is ON the Increase.

New York, Aug. 8.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade says:
Trade advices from nearly every
section continue to show as ia
vorable conditions as a year ago, and
in many lines the volume of transac-
lions has been increased. Jobbers re-
port fall business opening with excel
lentprospects, and manufacturing plants
are we'll occupied, with the exception
of cotton mills. Distribution of mer-
chaldise is so heavy that railway equip
ment already proves inadequate, al
though crops are not the factor that
they will be in a few weeks. On the
whole, news from the farms is less ia
vorable, but no serious curtailment Is
assured, and many sections make very
bright reports. A decline Of 1.5 per
cent. in the cost of commodities during
July is evidence that prices are less in
f1ated, since the change was mainly in
meats and other food, which have been
ruling at an abnormal position. There
were 17S commercial failures in the
United States, against 100 last week"
Bradstreet's says: Summed Up in
sentence, it may be said that the past
In trade and industry is satisfactorily
secured, while the future, despite some
mainly sentimental drawbacks, is high
ly promising Divided geographically,
it is to be noted that the east feels the
effect of speculative liquidation, and the
dulling effects on manufacturing Of
high prices of raw material, or of
strikes, while the west and south con-
template the prospects of good yields
of staple crops and remunerative prices
for the same with confidence and even
optimism. Staple prices are drifting
lower. Food products certainly tend
lower
'Other developments in actual trade
and manufacture are favorable. There
are more buyers of dry goods and cloth
ing, hats, shoes and hardware in west
ern markets, and in nearly all lines
business is claimed to be equal to or in
excess of last year so far

INN III grafton Bureau Perfecting Plans
to Keep Out Disease from
Foreign Countries.

Washington, Aug. 8.-Since the i'm
migration bureau has been transferred
to the department. of commerce and la
Dor greater interest is shown in its adj
ministration Commissioner General
Sargent has manifested an enlightened
interest in his work and capacity in it's
administration. Secretary Cortelyou, Of
whose department the immigration bu-
reau has been part since July 1, is pay
ing close attention to that bureau.
One of the most important duties of
the immigration bureau is to exclude
immigrants suffering from loathsome or
infectious diseases Commissioner Gen
eral Sargent is formulating a plan for
preventing diseased aliens from embark
ing at European ports and being brought
to the United States, where the medical
inspectors generally discover them and
deport them at the expense Of the steam
ship companies which bring them to the
United States.
Surgeons of the marine hospital serv-
ice are stationed at the principal Euro
pean ports. Their duties are confined to
Investigations of infectious diseases and
report upon them to Washington. Mr..
Sargent is convinced that there is ample
authority under existing laws to assign
thes marine hospital surgeons to the
duty of inspecting every person who de-
sires to embark for an American port
He believes that such inspection would
prevent the embarkation Of the MAORI
ty of the would-be immigrants who are
diseased and protect others who are
healthy from the danger of contagion.

| Pope Plus x. is very learned in the &C.
| clesiastical doctrines, is modest, ener
getic, a good administrator and or
ganizer, a patron of the arts and his seri-
BUSINESS always has been proverbjal.
Early in April Pope Leo, in CONVEX
sation with Father Perosi, the italian
composer, said in speaking of Cardinal
Sarto:
Hold him very dear, Perosi, as in the
future he will be able to do much for
you We firmly believe he will be our
successor"
He has been known for many years as
one Of the greatest preachers in the
church.
Plus x. enjoyed great popularity in
his diocese, and was honored by all for
his purity. for the strict uprightness of
his life and for liberal ideas. He is
modest and agreeable man, highly Gull
tivated, kind-hearted, still strong and
robust in spite of his 68 years. He has
never taken much part in the political
and public life of the church, but has
divided his time between study and good
| works.
Although most faithful to the holy
see, he was presented to the king and
queen Of Italy in Venice. He may be
considered among the more liberal
members of the Italian episcopate and
sacred college. He is rather timid in
expressing an opinion. 1t is said that
Leo XIII. always thought very highly
of him and sided with him on one oc-
casion when Sarto disapproved of Ram
polla's policy.

and ordered by Cardinal Resphigi, vicar
of Rome, who issued special instructions
| therefor. All the churches contem-
| poraneously celebrated masses for the
event, the intoning Of the Oremus COM
bining with the harmony. The bells in
voluntarily served another purpose,
that of ringing in the great ceremony of
the reception of the diplomatic body, ac-
credited to the holy see. Rome has late
