ONLY THE POPE
AND CARDINALS
First Secret COnsistory of the
New Pontifcats.
TWO RED HATS CONFESSED
CLAIMS OF AMERICA PASSED
OVER.

Rome, Nov. 9.-The first secret con
sistory Of the new ponuhcate was held
today. No American cardinal was ap-
pointed
Several appointments of archbishops
and bishops were made, including that
of the Rev. J. J. Harty as archbishop
of Manila, Philippine islands, who as
an exceptional privilege. received the
pallium at an extra COnsistOry when
/ he came to Rome for conservation.
The Rev. Pedro Gonzales y Estrada
was appointed bishop Of Havana and
that RI Rev. Macmillan Raynoso V
I DelcOral, formerly bishop of Tulan-
cingO. was appointed titular bishop Of
| NOCesearea.
The inhabitants of this city had been
1 looking forward with unusual interest
I to the cOnsistOry principally because it
was the first to be held by Pope Plus.
/ The meeting Of the cardinals, however,
was quite simple and private, the pOmp
and ceremony Of the vatican being re-
/ served for the public consistOry which
will be held Thursday. Only the pope
and the cardinals were present today.
I The latter, according to custom,
/ gathered somewhat early in an ante
| chamber near the han of the consis-
/ tory from where they passed into the
/ latter place, the many papal guards in
attendance rendering them sovereign
I honOrs. The cardinals took their
| places according to precedence. Every
! one except Pope Plus showed excite
ment and preoccupation. The pontih
rose at his usual hour and after a pri-
Vate mass he partOOk of a cup of
coffee and went for a brisk walk in the
/ third lOggia, returning in time for the
( ceremony at eleven.
/ Full Pontifical Robes.
/ The pontiff walked from his apart
ment accompanied only by the per-
F! sOnages in immediate attendance on
/ him AS he entered the hall of the
cOnsistory the picture produced was
very striking, the red gowns OF the
| cardinals and the white robes and gold
and red mantle Of the pope giving a
| pleasing colOring to the scene. The
| commanding appearance Of the pOntif
was somewhat sOftened by his silver
I hair, under which his blue eyes
| cleaned with pleasure and friendli-
ness. He wore the full pontidcal
robes which are only used as a secret
/ cOnsistOry once in each pontihcate,
] namely, for the first. one When the pope
/ had seated himself on the throne all
! those present one by one paid him
/ homage, after which the master Of
! ceremonies called upon all but those
/ authorized to take part in the con-
| sistOry to leave the hail which was
| done. When the doors had been closed
and a guard had been stationed be-
! fore them, outside, Pope Plus, in har-
mOniOus voice, intoned a prayer. Car
dinal Oreglia, dean Of the sacred col
/ lege. then stood up and in a few words
\ thanked the pOntif for having put
| aside his private preferences and &C
| cented the burden Of the church. The
pope replied in an aIIOcutlOn which re-
I ceived universal appreciation.
Two New Cardinals.
i Then the real business Of the day was
/ proceeded with, the appointment of two
Z cardinals, Mgr. Merry Del VAL the
/ papal secretary Of state, and Mgr.
j Callesari, archbishop of Padua, being
( announced by the pope, who said, in
I Latin:
What have you to say?"
/ In response the cardinals raised their
caps as a sign Of affirmation on their
part.
This was all, so every doubt was laid
at rest for the present regarding the
appointment of another American car
dinal.
The confirmation Of the appointment
of the Rev. j. j. Harry as archbishop
of Manila and Of the Rev. Pedro Con
zales Y Estrada as bishop Of Havana
| and the Rt. Rev. Macmillan Raynoso
ty DelcoraI as titUlar bishop of Noe
esearea followed
The pope then arose and bestowed
the apostolic blessing, after which he
returned to his apartments.
Among the combinations at this
mornings cOnsistOry were those of the
Rev. Thomas A. Hendrick, as bishop
of Cebu, p T., and the Rev. Manuel
Orne Vivance as bishop of Pinar del
Rio. Cuba.
The Rev. B. S. Broderick, formerly
Of Hartford. Conn. and the auxiliary
bishop of Havana, Cuba, was appointed
tituiar bishop of GiulianopoH-
