AMERICAN CARDINALS
 TO LEAVE FOR ROME

Washington. January 22.-The two American members of the Sacred Col lege of Rome, Cardinals OConnel or Boston and Daugherty of Phila- delphia, will leave at the earliest pos sible moment to attend the conclave for the election of successor to the late Pope Benedict XIV, it was said in ecclesiastical circles tonight.
 Cardinal oConnel failed to secure passage yesterday as he had planned and will sail Tuesday on the Presi- dente Wilson, while Cardinal Daugh- erty is expected to return from a va cation trip next Friday and probably will sail on the following day on the French liner La Lorraine.
 If there is no especial reason for delay, 1t was said here, the conclave may meet February 1. The fear was expressed that if the conclave Is as short as that which resulted in the election of the late pontiff, both the American members of the Sacred col le.ge, Cardinals OConnel of Boston and Daugherty of Philadelphia, may arrive in Rome too late to partici- pate in the election of the new occu- plant of the chair of St. Peter.
