 District Attorney Whitman and Harvey Hinman will be pitted against each other at the primaries. The convention here is strongly Whitman.

 Senator Root was selected as tenn porary chairman and in making the opening address said that the third party was dead and that its chances even as a disturber were fast disap- bearing and that the fight this fall was between the Republican and Dem. ocratic parties.

ROME, Aug. 19.-Pope Plus X. died today of pneumonia, the end coming after a night of watching and wait ing. All hope had been abandoned towards morning and it was then but a matter of waiting until the end. Many cardinals were in attendance at his bedside and the last sacraments were administered.
 Pope Plus X. was elected in 1903 and is seventy-nine years old, having been born in 1885. The out break of the war in Europe caused h'm so much grief and sorrow that when his efforts failed to prevent the conflict he slowly sank beneath the weight of sorrow caused by the ter rible horrors he knew was in store for the people of Europe.
 Pope Plus X. has effected marked changes in important matters Of church government and discipline, and has been unrelenting in attacking the doctrinal errors of Modernism, which he called the "synthesis of all here sies." He has reorganized the Roman Curia, made up of the various sacred congregations of cardinals who as- sist the Pope in the administration of church affairs, revived the vener. able tribune of the Rota, inaugurated a codifcation of canon law, trans. ferred the church in the United States from the Jurisdiction of the propagan. da as a missionary land to the i'm. mediate supervision of the Cardinal
