CARDINALS SPENT
 DAYS PLEASANTLY
DID NOT SUFFER THE lNCoNvENI-
 ENCE WHICH WAS EXPECTED DURING THE ,coNcLAvE-sAW
 THE CROWDS THRo' A CRACK.

Rome, August 4-After the conelave dissolved this evening one of the cardi- nals who returned to his house in Rome said to the representative of the Asso- ciated Press:
 we really were very, very well treat ed and l feel better than when I went into the conclave. The perfect rest was really a treat. We had good food, and the arrangements for looking after so many people could not have been better. After mass every morning we entered the sistine chapel and transacted our busl- ness. After each morning session we had dinner. During the afternoon most of us
 ed time by reading in our rooms.
 tried my literature with several Ameri- can periodicals and learned treatises on the conclave, all of which disagreed and invariably put me to sleep with a head ache Through chink in the boards which were placed over the window in my cell l could see the crowd in the pi- azza of St. Peter's. This, indeed. formed a wonderful sight. To reach my room 1 had to climb hundred and twenty-eight steps. You see, had plenty of time to count them. This was not a pennance, as there was an elevator. to which, how ever l have deep-rooted objection"
 The cardinal said that it was impossi- ble to say who next to Sarto had come nearest to being pope.
 Speaking personally of Plus x. he frank ly confessed that he had scarcely heard of him before he entered the conclave, ex cept to write him the Christian greeting usual between cardinals. He seems, how ever said he. Ito have a charming per- SOndl1tX and fO fho rIo fidence of majority of the members of the Sacred college who are residents of the Italy and thereabouts are fully able to judge. l am told he is devoted to Venice and has frequently said that he could never be happy elsewhere. Poor man! Unless things change far more than we expect, Plus x. will never see his beloved Venice again, unless, perhaps, after hts body lies beside that of Leo XIII, his spirit may be able to revisit the place where he spent so many happy years"
 Regarding the veto power supposed to be vested in Austria, Spain and Italy. this cardinal said that no attempt had been made to exercise such a power, and that the Sacred college was greatly divided as to the continuance of that tradition. Venetian might be objectionable to Austria, but the cardinal said he failed to see why 1t should be, since the ancient emmity between Italy and Austria was confined to a small section of the Italian people. Besides Austria was Italy's ally and they should have no misgivlngs re- garding the futrue course of Plus x. who had kept himself utterly out of politics. and who, so far as this cardinal could learn, had not identified himself with any particular movement. political or other wise.

 porous Sister City.


 Bessemer, August -(Special)-On ac- count of the closeness of the race yester- day and the failure of the candidates to receive a majority of all the votes cast, 1t will be necessary to hold a second pri- mary, which has been set for next Mon day. T. T. Huey aud J. J. Sullivan will again contest for mayor, and the race will be run again for an alderman from the First ward two from the Second, two from the Third and one from the Fourth. The interest of the contest now centers in the race for mayor. which promises to be very close between Huey, the present incumbent, and Sullivan. The friends of each claim majority of the eighty-eight votes which went to Lewis but it is hard to say how these votes will be divided between the two candidates.
 Charles Morris, a white man employed at Sloss mines, was struck by lightning during the severe storm yesterday after noon. Morris was at work on some ma chinery which attracted the lightning which passed through his body. Though unconscious for several hours, his condi- ton at the time causing great alarm, he will escape without any serious injuries.

NO CONTINUANCE
 OF POWERS TRIAL
DEFENSE WANTED AN oPPoR- TUNlTY TO SHOW THAT THE
 PARDON ISSUED BY FORMER
 GOVERNOR TAYLOR WAS GOOD.

Georgetown, Ky. August 4-Among those here to testify for the defense in the third trial of former Secretary of State Caleb Powers is "Tallow Dlck' Combs, the colored barber. who Is also under indictment for alleged complieity In the Goebel murder. He is expected to con- tradict Henry E. Youtsey. who is serving a life sentence and has become a witness for the prosecution.
 The defense today offered affidavits for a continuance, supporting 1t by a plea in abatement to go behind the records of the legislature that unseated w. s. Taylor as governor and other state of fieials in favor of Goebel and others, as 1t was upon this authority that the Court of Appeals held the advance pardon of Powers by Taylor to be effective, The plea held that by going back to egisla- tive records the defense could show the pardon to be good.
 Commonwealth Attorney Franklin ob- jected to filing this plea, and Judge Rob- bins sustained the objection, stating that the court took judicial notice of the statements therein Attorney James Sims for the defense stated that he de- sTtu tO lenueT the pled so that the fe- jection could be noted fully and the court consented The defense was allowed to supplement it's plea with the affidavit of an additional witness. Court then took a recess
 After recess the motion for a eontinu- ance was again taken up and discussed. The defense claimed it was an injustice to the defendant to force him into trial without his being permitted to get his witnesses. The court overruled the mos tion for a continuance and allowed the admission of dispositions of absent wit nesses, except in the cases of William Sweeney and John Sweeney, Jf., who had been summoned as Sweeny.
 In these instances the court held that due diligence was not used in that the names of the parties could have been procured The sheriff was ordered to summon 200 men from Bourbon county for jury service. The defense made an effort to have the officers instructed to summon men of both political parties but Judge Robbins decided that the law gives no man such power.
 Court then adjourned.
