OLDEST CARDINAL IS IS.
Dean Of Sacred College 10 Only Sur.
vlvor Appointed by Plus TX.

Rome. July s.--Cardinal Oreglia di
Santo Stefano, the dean of the Sacred
college. reached his eighty fifth birth
day anniversary today. He is the eld-
est Of the living cardinals. as regards
appointment, having been nominated
20 the Sacred college by the late Plus
TX. and being now the only surviv-
ing cardinal created under that pom
tihcate. Cardinal Oreglia was born in
and az student at the Academy Of
Rome gained prominence in theology
and languages. He became a Jesuit
novice, but did not continue in the
Society of Jesus and was ordained to
the secular priesthood in 1856.
Before Victor Emmanuel became
king Cardinal Oreglia was his chap
lain and was with the house of Savoy
in that capacity for several years. For
more than q quarter of century now
he has been a powerful factor in vat
lean politics. II was his personal in
fuence in the last conclave and his
shrewd diplomacy that caused the cleo
ton of the Patriarch of Venice to the
Papai throne. and ever since the cleo
ton OF Plus Y he is known to have
exercised extraordinary influence in
the vatican, and To have been the prin
cipal opponent of a liberal policy on the
part of the present pope toward the
Italian government
illness Complicates Situation.
For some time past Cardinal Oreglia
has been in very poor health. and be-
cause of his advanced age great fears
an approaching collapse. The serious
illness Of both the pope and the dean
Of the Sacred college have combined to
bring about situation with regards
10 vatican politics that is filled with
interesting possibilities. In the event
of the pope's death the dean of the
Sacred college fills the vacancy until
successor Is chosen. Should Cardi-
nal Oreglia die the sub dean, Cardinal
Serafino Vannutelli. would become
dean, and would thus become the act
ing pope in case of vacancy of the
papai throne. The present situation is
complicated nv the fact that Cardinal
Nanntitell is in high disfavor among
those who stand closest to the pope,
chiefly because of his differences with
Cardinal Merry del Val. the papal sec
retary OF state. and with his brother.
Cardinal V. Vannutelli. has virtually
retired to private life.
