men and diplomats. Plus X turned
out to be such a pontiff, whatever may
have been his temporal diplomatic de-
feats when measured by the accom-
pllshments of the previous pontificate.
From a material point of view,
When Plus \ came to occupy the chair
OF st. Peter, in the summer of 1908,
the opportunity seemed most pro-
pitlous for reorganization of French
Catholicism. To be sure, the asso-
Citations law, restricting or dissolving
Catholic orders. had been promul-
gated. But at that time there was no
question of separation of church and
state except in so far as might result
IN new concordat amicably nego-
tiated between the Vatican and the
government of the French republic.
indeed. Cardinal Rampolla, when sec
retary of state. had believed that a
partial separation might be advisable,
but such separation would not neces-
sarily mean decentralization. What
alternately happened, however, was
complete separation and a diplomatic
rupture as well. Events in France
nave been repeated in Portugal and
the relations of the Vatican with Spain
have been far from serene. All has
been due to policy which has turned
an unrelenting face toward modernism
whenever found, and made possible
L &.
1907 The expression of that policy
was due to the personality of one
man, although 1t was undoubtedly in
spired by Pope Plus. The man in
question was the successor of Cardinal
Rampolla as secretary of state, Merry
del Val.
The Work of Merry Del Val
Nominally the Papal Secretary of
State is only the director of the di-
plomacy of the Vatican; in practice
in these modern days he is the "alter
ego of the Pope and consequently
associated with his affairs. even
though they have nothing to do with
diplomacy. Merry del Val was sec
retary of the Papal Consistory con-
Vened after the death of Pope Leo in
July, 1908. He was just 3S years of
age, having been born in London in
1865, while his father was secretary
OF the Spanish Embassy there. on
both sides he was of English descent.
and his bringing up had been prin-
cipally English. At the age of "a he
had been admitted to the Academy
of Noble Ecclesiastics in Rome, and
in 1888 he was appointed master of
the Robes and Privy Chamberlain to
Leo XIII He had performed certain
diplomatic missions with notable
success, such as adjusting the school
question in Manitoba. and had acted
as Papal envoy to the cornation of
Edward VII.
Usually the secretary of the last
consistory before the conclave is first
to receive the red hat of the Cardi-
nalate from the new Pope, as the lat
ter discards his for the s'beretta
blanca" or white cap, of the Pontiff.
But on the occasion Plus X folded up
his red hat and put 1t In his pocket.
and, nodding in the direction of Merry
del Val, said: HE viii receive some
thing else before the purple"
Merry del Vel was already tituIar
Archbishop, having received the See
of Nicosia in 1902. On October Is.
1903, he was appointed Papal Secre-
tary of State and at the first public
consistory In the following November
he was made a cardinal.
Within the church great progress
was made. particularly in non-Catholic

cardinals, few intimates of the dead
and the penltentiaries of ST. Peters
who will prepare the body for the
tomb.
Later the body will be removed to
another room, where it will be en-
| balmed. The sacred college will de-
eide on the day upon which it will be
transported to st. Peters for the three
days chapel sacrament before burial
The funeral service will be held in
the Sistine Chapel.
Those interested in condolences
point out that the pope died on Au-
gust 20. eleven years and one month
after the death of Pope Leo, on July
20. 1908.
1t is expected that the conclave for
the election of pope will be held on
September 3, after a delay to give
time for the cardinals from several
countries to arrive. Even so it is
doubtful whether Cardinals Gibbons
and O'Connell can reach here by that
time from the United States, and Car
dinal Cavalcanti. from Rio Janeiro
owing to the partial suspension of the
steamship service. 1t is stated, how
ever. that Notwithstanding the war
special trains will be put at the dis
posal of the cardinals in Europe.

lands, where the number of converts
has more than made UP the loss that
the church has suffered in nominally
Catholic countries. Numerous reforms
have been made in regard to the ad-
ministration of the church and in dis
couraging adherence to certain ira
ditions which the lay Catholic was apt
to interpret as matters of doctrine.
1t would take too long to enumerate
all the reforms of a religious and adj
ministrative character initiated by
Plus X. A few of these have already
been mentioned. Others were a thor
oughgoing reorganization of the Ro-
man Church. which was still ruled by
the bull of SiXtus V, of 1888; the codi-
fication of ecclesiastical law, which is
well under way, and. more epoch
making than either of the preceding,
the revision of the Vulgate Bible,
which task was confided to the Bene-
dictine Order, Abbot Gasquet, the Eng
ish historian, being president of the
commission of revision. A school for
biblical criticism was established in
Rome. New legislation on marriage
was introduced. Beside the United
States Plus X also withdrew Canada,
Newfoundland Great Britain, Holland
and Luxembourg from the jurisdiction
of propaganda fide. removing them
therefore from among the missionary
American church was also recognized
by Plus in 1911 when he increased the
number of American cardinals to four,
bestowing the red hat on Archbishop
Farley of New York; Archbishop
OConnell, of Boston. and Archbishop
Falconio. former apostolic delegate at
Washington, who, although an Italian
by birth is an American citizen.
In the pontiflcate of Plus X the
Catholic hierarchy all over the world
has had the following increase:

which dropped pulseless on the Pope's
breast. The physician bent over the
stilled. 1T is all over" he said and
reverently kissed the Pontiff's hand
In turn the others did the same, after
which they intoned prayers for the
dead.
Immediately after candlelights
fiickered in all the windows of the
Vatican and the whole personnel of
the Apostolic Palace. with the per-
mission of the Papal Secretary, passed
by the body, kissing the hand of the
Pontitf as they passed. Throughout
the night messages had been received
from the heads of many States inquir-
ing the condition of His Holiness. All
were Immediately notified of his death
by Cardinal Merry Del Val
The Italian Premier, Signor Salan-
dra, at once ordered that the neces-
sary measures be taken to guarantee
the complete liberty of the provisional
government of the Church and of the
Sacred College of Cardinals, which is
the temporary custodian of the SUI
preme power of the Church during the
interium pending the election of
Pope
ConcIave Is Discussed
cussed to-day. 1t is said that ma
jority of the cardinals are in favor
of holding 1t in Rome, as is usual and
further because of the neutrality of
Italy in the presept war. Others,
however, suggested that it would be
better to meet in Holland, a country
which they regarded as even more
neutral than Italy. Among the candi-
dates already mentioned are Cardi-
nails Maffi, De Lai. Ferrata, Agliardi,
Pompili and Serafini, the last named
ex-nuncio of Mexico.
There is much interest in the matter
of where the body of the Pope will
find its final resting place. 1t is re-
called that carrying the body of Plus
IX from st. Peters to St Lawrence
caused riot. For this reason the
body of Pope Leo, although he had
expressed a wish to be buried in St
John Lateran. where his tomb was
erected, is still in St Peters, as the
late Pope feared that the transporta-
ton might cause disorders. 1t is be-
lieved that Plus Y chose st. Peters
for his tomb in order to avoid the
possibility of unpleasantness.
The Giornale D'Italia to-day says
that the Pope recently drew up new
rules to govern future conclaves and
that these abolished the right of the
veto OF foreign powers, thus freeing
the cardinals of temporal influence in
spiritual matterc. The new rules
also, the paper says. modified some
the formalities concerning the du-
ration of the conclave. The arrival
OF Cardinal Del La Volpe, chamber
lain of the church, from Imola, to-day
was anxiousfy awaited. AS chamber
lain he will direct the Holy See tenn
porarily and will conduct the tradi-
tional ceremony in which the Pontiff
is officially pronounced dead.
