 According to tradition, the camerlengo is entitled to have his apartment watched day and night by picket of the Swiss guard, but at o'clock tonight Cardinal Oreglia sent word that the eight Swiss guards posted at his door should be with drawn. Cardinal Oreglia's request to Car dinal Rampolla that the latter should re- main at the vatican Is considered most diplomatic move, being perhaps the first step for an agreement between them, and might entirely change all the prophecies hitherto made concerning the issue of the conclave. Indeed. some profess to see a result of this in this mornings slCrmish at the first meeting of the congregation of cardinals over the appointment of a secretary to the consistorial congrega- ton.
 No Measure Taken. After the discussion of several candi- dates, among whom was Monsignor Cas- pari known to be Cardinal Rampolla' g protege, some one suggested Monsignor Merry Del Val. He was Immediately sup ported by the whole anti-Rampolla ele- ment. merely to test the strength of the ex-secretary of state but this strategem was unsuccessful, as Cardinal Orgelia made it manifest that he was not person. ally interested in the matter, while Car dinal Rampolla swung his followers to the support of Merry Del Val. and thus avoided measure of his strength at this 1uncture

CARDINAL. WILL PROBABLY
 BEGIN SI TYING AUGUST

Rome, July H.-According to statement coming from a high ecclesiastic, arrange ments at the vatican are being pressed forward which will enable the conclave of cardinals to degin sitting August 1. However, it Is now thought the sessions may last considerably longer than at first expected. even long enough to permit Cardinal Moran of Sydney. N. s. w., to arrive in time to take part in the proceed ngs.
 An ambassador accredited to the vatican says the question of Pope Leo's successor Is a peculiarly open one at the present moment The personality of the candl- dates plays a much more important part than In any proceeding concave, since the condition prevailing in the past is now en- tirely changed.
 Formerly the sacred college was divided into several distinct parties. There was, first that composed of the cardinals who were members of the great Roman fam lilies, nearly every one of which was rep resented in the college. These always exerted very powerful influence in the

RAILROAD SHARES FIRM
Lowest Prices Ever Recorded Were Scored By Tennessee Coal and Iron, Colorado Fuel and Re-
 public Steel and Iron Pfd.

New York, July 21.-Bear attacks coup led with further forced liquidation re- suited in a new. low level for number of securities in today's stock market. De- clines ranged from 15 points to 8, while some of the better grade stocks showed losses of point or more. Railway shares of the better class were moderately firm but in little demand and there was no evidence of bargain buying in these is- sues.
 The attack on prices began at the open ing and was continued at more or less regular intervals throughout the day. In fact, lowest prices for some issues came almost at the close.
 Steel Shares Pounded.
 The United States steel shares were most severely pounded with net losses of 2% and SM in the common and pre- ferred respectively. Sales of these stocks aggregated over 1s6oO0 shares over 132, GOO shares of common changing hands. Trad ing in the steel stocks comprised consid- erably more than one-flfth of the days business. Steel, common, closed at %, a low record figure, while the preferred stock touched 70.
 Besides the steel issues the lowest prices ever recorded were scored by Ten nessee coal and iron, Colorado fuel and Iron, Republic steel and iron preferred, United States realty and Virginia Caro- lina chemical.
 In the railway group there were new low records. Rock Island common and preferred, Kansas and Texas preferred. Chicago Terminal, three C.s, Colorado and Southern issues, Lake Erie and Wes- tern preferred, Brooklyn Rapid transit, Metropolitan Street railway, Pacific Coast and Peoria and Eastern.
 Usual Crop of Rumors.
 There was the usual large crops of rumors but nothing could be learned. 1 Some of the banks which have closed 1 Wall street relations, 1t is said are call ing in a number of loans.

The day was not without some news of a favorable character Erie directors increased the rate of dividend on the first preferred to q four per cent basis and the quarterly report of the Tennessee Coal company showed surplus increase of over $500 = 900 with an Increase of almost S900OO0 for the half year. In spite of this the stock was among the weakest in the list The steady declines in the steel stocks creat- ed great uneasiness.

n ONE, July 21-There was touching N scene at the vatican this morning when the nephews of Leo, with their families entered the death chamber to take last farewell of their uncle for whom they had an intense reverence. The elders were dressed in black and the chil- dren in white As they entered the young CT children awe struck and frightened began to cry at this, their first acquaint- ance with death. but the beauty of the scene soon quieted them and they ceased to weep. The little party advanced on tiptoe and circling around the bed, fell on their knees and joined in the prayers of the penitentiares. The whiteness of the children's gowns added a pleasing note to the rather highly colored scene.
 Kissed Pope's Hand.
 Presently the visitors arose and slowly filed past the bed, kneeling to kiss the dead hand as they passed. Count Camille, one of the nepliews of the vatican, was quite overcome, more so in fact than at any time since his uncle's death occurred.
 Monsignor Cagiano. the major domo, assisted by the papal notary and Mon signor Bisletti, master of the chamber, sealed all the drawers and boxes in the papal apartments, making a minute in- ventory of all objects of value found. These were entrusted for safe keeping to Prince Rospiglosi. the commandant of the noble guard. Cardinal Oreglia, in giving instructions to the commanders of the papal armed bodies, said:

selection of @ pope. At the present time there is only one scion of a great Roman house among the cardinals, namely, Car dinal Battista Casall del Drago, who, from the standpoint of election of a new pontiff, Is relatively unimportant.
 Then there were parties composed of cardinals appointed by the same pope, who usually ranged themselves into sep arate bodies. In addition to the mem bers of the sacred college appointed by the pope who had then just passed away, there was usually considerable numbers chosen by his predecessor, and even a few nominated by the pope preceding him. In consequence of Leo KITS. long reign, these parties have entirely ds- appeared.
 In the present conclave there will be only one cardinal, Cardinal Oreglia, who was not appointed by Pope Leo As result of thees changes the approach ing conclave will be much under the ln- fiuence of individual candidates than in the past, rendering 1t impossible to fore cast the election with any degree of cer- tainity. Il is considered highly probable that the new pope will be a man at present not thought of and not talked about.
