NEW YORK. Jan. 90 Omitted
Press) The false report OF the
death OF Pope Benedict XIV was
published Saturday by newspapers
receiving the Associated Press and
Hearst's International News Service
as direct cablegrams from Rome,
under the credit lines OF those two
services. Later both admitted their
error and retracted their own dis

America.
During this time the United Press

SAYS INQUEST
WAS NOT NECESSARY

Referring 20 the holding OF an in
quest by Coroner Bullock. last week,
contrary to the wishes Of the attor-
ney-general's office. in the death OF
Samuel Christina, who was shot
and killed on January z, Attorney
General Townsend today said: "Mr.
Bullock did not need to hold the in
quest; the man accused Of the crime
had been indicted. therefore, the in
quest was unnecessary.
Mr. Townsend explained that the
reason the State was opposed TO the
holding OF the inquest was that wit
nesses for the State had received
threatening letters, warning them
not to reveal what they knew and
that eve were anxious TO surround
them with every precaution and not
to expose them to danger unnec-
essarily."

He was educated in Capranica
College in Rome and four years
later he was odrained a priest
He at once entered the Academy
for Noble Ecclestastcs from which
the then Monsignor Rampolla took
him to be his private secretary. In
1898 Rampolla was made papal
nuncIo at Madrid, a post OF the
greatest importance al that time.
The young priest won the affection
OF Rampolla, who gave him a train
ing in diplomacy such as could
probably have been obtained from
no other living man. When Ram
polla returned TO Rome as secretary
of state 10 Leo XIII he took Mon
signor Della Chicsa with him and
made him under secretary.
Following the death OF Leo XIII,
Cardinal Merry Del Val took the
place OF Rampolla as secretary OF
state.
Monsignor Della Chiesa remained
/ however. at his post. He was made
cardinal May %. 1914.
When cardinal Della Chiesa went
into the conclave after the death OF
Pope Plus y there were few who
believed that his election was pos
sibinty but he was elected.

Not Enough Money From

VOTED DOWN PROPOSAL
FOR INCREASED TAXES

7'smere school district. No. 100.
wiz be closed January 81, after
which date no sessions will be held.
81 was announced today. The rea-
son given for the decision to close
.ho school IS the lack OF money with
hich 10 pay for janitor services.
The appropriation for the State
does not include sufficient money 10
)ay the janitors in rural schools. and
that has caused much dissatisfaction
in various districts. Several districts
OF New Castle county, including
Eismere Marshallton, Newport and
Mt. Pleasant have submitted to vot-
ers Of those districts the question Of
raising more money by taxation TO
pay the janitors, but each district
has defeated the increased taxation
proposal decisively. II was the feel
ing Of voters in the various districts
that the State should appropriate
sufficient money TO pay janitors.
At various times several districts
have threatened 20 close their
schools Senator l.. Heisier Ball hn-
ancially aided Newport district TO
keep its school open. Marshallton
district is holding bake sales and
other affairs TO raise money with
which to pay the janitor.
Now that Elsmere district has
decided TO close its school on jan
uary 81, it is expected it will bring
% a climax the issue OF maintaining
the schools open, the period re-
quired by the school law.
After voting down an increased
tax proposal. some voters Of Els
mere district wrote to Governor
Denney requesting him to call a
special session OF the Legislature "a

more money for school districts.

GEORGETOWN, Jan. 23.-Scarlet

few new cases. Many persons who
have been suffering from the disease
for the past two or three weeks
are rapidly recovering, many Of
them being able to go out.
While some Of the schools have
been closed. due to the development
OF two or three cases among the

u. P. Staff Correspondent
ROME, Jan. 23.-Thousands
today paid homage to Pope
Benedict XIV, whose body lay
in the Sacrament Chapel of ST.
Peters. The burial service began
al S o'clock this afternoon.
The actual interment of the
late Pontiff, which was to have
taken place at S o'clock, was
postponed.
The burial, with solemn cere-
mony, will extend over a period
of ten days
An endless line of worship
pers passed by the grilled door
of the chapel, kissing the foot of
the dead Pontiff which protrud-
ed through the chancel.
The body q Pope Benedict
was removed to the Sacrament
Chapel from the throne room of
the Vatican at 9 o'clock this
morning. II had lain in state,
visited by special dignitaries of
the church and government since
its removal from the bed-cham-
Der where the Pope died at 6
o'clock yesterday morning.
The end came after a night
of agony, the Pontif now and
then lapsing into delirium-
Shortly before midnight he took
a little nourishment which SEEM
ed momentarily to revive him.
Much of the ages-old cere-
mony connected with the death
Of the Supreme Pontiff of the
Roman Catholic Church had to
be abandoned today in accord
ance with Pope Benedicts last
wishes.
The Pope's body was not en-
balmed and ceremonies of lying
IN state in the Vatican throne
room and in the Sacrament
Chapel had to be considerably
curtailed.
The body Of the late Pontif.
which lay in state in the Sacra-
ment Chapel for a brief while
today. was placed in the first of
three collins in which it will f.
nally be inferred. and tonight
will rest in the vault of St.
