 Yesterday the constable and his deputy made visit through the city and informed lot of people of the new policies. First, there is to be no gaming under any conditions. Sec ond, there is to be a general obser- vance of the Sunday saloon law, and it is stated that instead of this ap- plying in spots. it will apply to all. Third there will be no slot machines of dhe trade" variety, or other ex- hibitions of hazard through which merchandise is unloaded via. the prize package route. Fourth, Whit I tington park is to be included in the lid order.

And the city administration is quot- ed ss being somewhat put out that the township constable is policy dic- | tator, but inasmuch as the real dic- l tatorship comes through the law, there seems to be nothing else to do but wait for things to adjust them selves.

Information Leaks From
Vatican That Consistory
Will Be Held in January.
SACRED COLLEGE is
LOW IN MEMBERSHIP
Engish-Speaking World Has But
Two Representatives, Gibbons
and Logue.

ROME. Sept S.-From half a dozer
high Vatican sources the Information
was CLEANED today that preparations
are steadily in progress for consistory
In January. 1872, to fill the vacancies In
the College of Cardinals.
With Cardinal Puzyna's recent death
at Vienna, the membership OF the
Sacred College was reduced from the
usual 70 to 46 OF this number, q are
employed in Rome in connection with
the church's general administration,
ten are archbishops Of the various
Italian cities, leaving only fifteen to
represent the entire Catholic world out
side of Italy, in the event OF the sud-
den summoninS Of a conclave to elect
new Pope.
at the present time there are only two
representatives in the Sacred College
Cardinals Gibbons, of Baltimore, and
Logue, OF Armagh
Yields to Pressure.
u Is largely because of this lack of
ADEQUATE representation that Pope Plus
has yielded to the strong pressure
brought to bear upon him by the vari-
Gus Catholic nations and decided to
summon a consistory.
Although the Pope has the right to
appoint Cardinals without summoning
a consistory, in the entire history Of
the church this has been done but three
times, and then in cases of a Pope, sud-
denly confronted with the possibility Of
death, hastily appointing Cardinals to
I'LL the vacancies in the Sacred College.
II Is not necessary that the member
ship of the Sacred College be complete
in order to elect a new Pope. This has
been done in the past with as few as
eighteen members OF the conclave. At
present, however, there is a worldwide
demand that the Sacred College be made
representative Of the entire Catholic
world.
Sacred College Split.
There is a widespread belief in Rome
that when the time arrives for the cleo
ton Of a successor to Pope Plus, the
new Pope will be chosen from among
the new cardinals. The Sacred College
at present is declared to be hopeIessly
divided, one faction believing that the
Pope should confne his efforts to the
religious welfare Of the church, and one
desiring a Pope Of sufficient political as
tuteness to secure a temporal kingdom,
similar to that possessed before the uni
fication Of Italy in 1870. So wide apart
are these factions that 1t is considered
doubtful if even Cardinal Rampolla, now
the leading candidate for the Papacy,
with all his unquesuoned popularity,
would be able to unite them sufficiently
TO get for himself the necessary two
thirds majority for election to the
Papacy.
