CARDINAL SATOLLI ILL
First PapaI Delegate to the United
States Reported Seriously TIL.
Nearly Seventy Years Old.
(HeraId Specially

(Herald Specially
Rome, July 9-The serious illness
of Cardinal Satolli is a matter of
grave concern at present in Vatican
circles. For several years the cardi:;
nal has been suffering from a chronic
ailmen, which, added to his age-he
will be seventy years old this month
renders his recovery extremely
doubtful.
In the history of the Catholic
church Cardinal Satolli will forever
be remembered as the first papal del
egate to the United States. His ap-
pointment to Washington in the early
sos, as many will recollect, was hail
ed with mingled feelings of delight
and disapproval in Catholic eeclesi-
astical circles in the United States,
and it is a tribute to Satolli's diplo-
macy that the jealousies which were
aroused at first were soon dissipated
and long before he had concluded his
mission he had won the esteem and
friendship of the leading American
churchmen.
Cardinal Satolli has long been IA
nous as one of the most learned
members of the Sacred College. He
was educated in the diocesan semi
nary of Perugia, then presided over
by Joachim Pecci, archbishop of Per-
ugia, who later was to be called to
the chair of st. Peter as Pope Leo
XIII.
