Impressive Ceremonies Mark Pro
ceedlngs Of the Cardinals.
The ceremonies attendant upon thu
election Of a new pope by the sacred
college of cardinals are impressive
and elaborate. The conclave must as
semble ten days after the death Of
the pope.
First the mass of the Holy Ghost Is
chanted In the chapel of st. Gregory
Then the cardinals go in procession,
two and two, according to their rank,
surrounded by the Swiss guard and
singing "Venl Creator Spiritus," to
take possession Of the cells assigned
to each by lot.
These cells are erected in a hall of
the vatican communicating with the
Sistine chapel. They are mere frame
works of wood, hung with fringed cur.
tains. Five are green in hue, because
their occupants were created by Plus
TX. The drapery of fifty-two will be
of violet, because their occupants
are creations Of Leo XIII.

But when the number Of voting pa
pers equals the number Of cardinals
present the first cardinal bishop, the
first cardinal priest and the first car
dinal deacon bring the chalice full Of
voting papers from the altar to the
Nble Of scrutiny. They retire and the
scrutineers approach the table and
face the sacred college.
The first scrutineer emptics the
chalice onto the table. One by one
he opens the folded voting papers,
looks at the name Of the cardinal on
each and passes the paper to the sec.
ond scrutineer. This one also looks
and passes the paper to the third
scrutineer, who reads the name aloud.
The voting papers are filed by the
third scrutineer and placed in the
empty chalice.
This counting is repeated second
time, and the voting papers re.exar'
ined by the three scrutineers
When the scrutiny brings forth no
pope with a majority of two-thirdS
plus one, the sacred college tries
election by accession,
Fresh voting papers are used, on
which the cardinals who wish to vote
in favor of him who Tailed highest
in the scrutiny will write; q accede
to the Lord Sorafno, Lord Cardinal
of Frascati," or q accede to the Lord
Dominic Mary, Lord Cardinal Of
Tyre" These accessions are placed
in the chalice on the altar with the
ceremonies Of the scrutiny, but the
oath is not resworn,
II no one yet attains the minimum
majority Of two-thirds plus one-that
s to say, thirty,seven notes.-the con-
lave will retire from the Slstine

This procedure obtains day after

of cardinals put themselves to shout:
1.-THE Jesuit cardinal is pope!" or "The
cardinal of Westminster Is pope!" by
which method other voices are attract

S. BY accession. e., when the

whose tally is highest shall accede to

and these scrutiny and accession
alone need to be considered.

At this opening they cry their mas

cardinal responds in turn, receiving

The Sistine chapel has been fur
nished for the conclave. On both
sides thrones are set, having canopies
which can be let down by pulling on
a cord. The reason of this will pres.
emily be made plain.
On a long table before the altar are
silver basins full of voting papers.
These are blank.
On the altar are two great chalices
of gold with patens. Here Is also the
oath which every cardinal must swear
before he records his vote.
There are five ways by which
pope may be elected:

Foremost among the candidates for
the throne Of st. Peter are Cardinal
Rampolla and Cardinal Serafno Van
nutelli. Then follow quite a number
who are well within the possibilities.
It Is also suggested that there is a
chance that Cardinal Gibbons may
be chosen in the event the foreign
cardinals were sufficiently. powerful
to stand out against those Of Rome,
and in case Of division no French
or Spanish candidate could control
the German or English cardinals, or
vice versa, 80 that II an opportunity
arises for a foreign cardinal to be
chosen the most authoritative men,
bers Of the college think that the on.
ly one who could obtain the pre-
scribed majority Is Cardinal Gibbons
Cardinal Rampolla and Cardinal
Serafno Vannutelll are both repre-.
sentatiyes Of the conservative policy,
but are bitter antagonists Of each
other,
The most probable liberal candi-
dates are Cardinal Bishop Agliardi
and Cardinal Priest Satolll.
The most probable religious candl-
dates are Cardinal Priest Gotti and
Cardinal Priest Angelo di Pietro.
AllNthese candidates live in Rome
but a strong party, which might in
clude good many foreign cardinals,
advocates the election of cardinal
who Is not a member Of the curia,
such as Cardinal Sato, patriarch Of
Venice; Cardinal Ferrari, archbishop
Of Milan, both intransigeant; or Card
tnal Capecelatro, archbishop Of Capua.
