POPE PIUS DIES iIH MOTTO on LIPS (Continued From Page 1) which dropped pulseless on the Pope's breast. The physician bent over the bed, listening for a heart that was stilled. "It 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 flickered 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 Pontiff 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 rlra, 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 su preme power of the Church during the interium pending the election of a Pope. Conclave Is Discussed The matter of a conclave was dis cussed to-day. It is said that a ma jority of the cardinals are in favor of holding it 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 nals 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. It is re called that carrying the body of Plus IX from St. Peter's to St. Lawrence caused a 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. Peter's, as the late Pope feared that the transporta tion might cause disorders. It is be lieved that Pius X chose St. Peter's for his tomb in order to avoid the possibility of unpleasantness. The Glornale D'ltalia to-day says that thps 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 o the formalities concerning the du ration of the conclave. The arrival of Cardinal Del La Volpe, chamber lain of the church, from Imola, to-dav was anxiously awaited. As chamber lain he will direct the Holy See tem porarily and will conduct the tradi tional ceremony In which the Pontiff Is officially pronounced dead. THURSDAY EVENING, In this ceremony the chamberlain lifts the covering from the face of the dead and with a silver hammer touches the forehead three times, say ins; each time: "Giuseppe Sarto!" When there is no reply he an nounces: "The pope is really dead." This is done in the presence of the cardinals, a few intimates of the dead and the. penitentiaries of St. Peter's who will prepare the body for the tomb. Later the body will be removed to another room, where it will be em balmed. The sacred college will de cide on the day upon which it will be transported to St. Peter's for the three days' chapel sacrament before burial. The funeral service will be held in the Sistine Chapel. Those interested in coincidences point out that the pope died on Au gust 20, eleven years and one month after the death of Pope Leo, on July 20. 1903. It is expected that the conclave for the election of a 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. It is stated, how ever. that notwithstanding the war special trains will be put at the dis posal of the cardinals in Europe. St. Peter's Square Deserted The rising sun which gilded the image of St. Joseph on the wall by the pontiff's bed found the Franciscan penitentiaries keeping the dead watch and murmuring prayers. Outside, St. Peter's Square, which had been filled throughout the night with per sons of every rank until the death of the pope was announced, was deserted. Monsignor Zampini, of the pope's household, assisted by the secretary and the pontiff's valet, laid out the body, placed the crucifix in the hands and stationed lighted candles about the bed. Cardinal Delia Volpe will invite the members of the sacred college to de cide upon the funeral ceremonies, which will occupy nine days. Interest in Rome when the dving condition of the pontiff was admitted was intense. Throughout the night carriages crowded the vicinity of the Vatican bringing diplomats and noble men. The Knights of Malta mingled with bishops, priests, monks and nuns made anxious inquiry in many tongues. Those who were admitted to the palace climbed the royal staircase to the papal antechamber, where Swiss guards paraded solemnly up and down Clementine Hall. After midnight, through Instructions personally Imparted by Cardinal Merry del Val, entrance to the apostolic pal ace was forbidden, while those within were not permitted to leave the place or communicate with those outside. The telephone line from the Vatican was disconnected and from then on nothing of what transpired within was known to the public until the death of his Holiness was officially ari nounced. Giuseppe Melchlore Sarto was elected pope on August 4, 1903, after a four day conclave. His election surprised i the world, but not more than it sur prised himself. So little did he antici pate the future that when he left Ven ice in July, 1903, for the conclave In Rome he bought a return ticket He had said to a friend at Venice before leaving for the conclave: "I think the election will be a short one. We will put Peter in chains per haps on the very first day* crown him pontiff as soon as possible, and hasten back to our dioceses." What fate caused a comparatively new and untried cardinal to be elected so unexpectedly to so high an office? When the conclave met after the death of Leo XIII it was plain that a division was expected along the old familiar lines of cleavage between the rigorous ecclesiastical party and the party which believes in a perpetual adjustment of ecclesiastical policy to secular needs. The candidates of these parties were, respectively, Cardinal Seraflno Vannutelli and Cardinal Ram polla, the famous secretary of state under Pope Leo XIII. Up to a certain point in the voting the choice was thus registered: Rampolla, 24; Vannutelli, 14; Gotti 17: Oreglia, 2; Di Pietro, 2; Cape celatro, ,2, and Sarto, 5. It was well known that the votes re ceived by Cardinal Gotti. the prefect of the congregation of the propaganda, were to be diverted to Cardinal Ram polla If needed to give him a majority. Th- votes for the less conspicuous can didates were a matter of compliment, the two for Luigi Oreglia di Santo Stefano, the dean of the sacred col lege, being due to the fact that he was the only surviving cardinal appointed by Pius IX. All that seemed to remain for the conclave to do. therefore, was to make the vote unanimous for Cardinal Ram polla. but something intervened. Al though all that takes place in a con clave is supposed to be under the seal of secrecy, yet cardinals are but human, and the walls of their palaces have ears, and before many days had elapsed after the election of Pius X it became generally known what that something was. It seems that Cardinal Rampolla was no favorite at the Austrian court, owing to his French proclivities, and so when the Austrian cardinals were about to depart for the conclave they had been advised by the Emperor Francis Joseph to Invoke what Is known as the Spanish veto In case Rampolla's election seemed a cer tainty. This article is said to have permitted either the king of Spain or the emperor of Austria to "forbid" the election of a certain candidate who might be deemed "unworthy," or, in other words, who might act contrary to the foreign policies of Spain or Aus tria. as the case might he. So Rampolla was defeated. It Is worthy of note that one of the first acts of the new pontiff was not only to abrogate the ancient article of the Spanish veto, but to declare that who soever should attempt to Invoke It In the future should suffer excommuni cation With Cardinal Rampolla out of the way the election of Vannutelll miKht have followed, except that, while the would-be electors of the former sec retary of state were willing to unite and elect a conservative churchman, they would not unite on Vannutelli. Thus in the?end a unanimous vote was Kiven to a cardinal who was known to be without party or policy. This HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH cardinal was Giuseppe Sarto, the pa triarch of Venice. The position of the new pope was most difficult. He could not consist ently unite himself with either the party of -iwmpolla or that of Vannu telli—neither with the party of ad justment nor that of noncompromise. •Although his leanings were in the lat ter direction, he must make his own way. He chose a middle course. In matters of dogma and of dogmatic in struction he would be conservative. Where these matters conflicted with secular thought or policy he would still be conservative and would pray for light. Pius X was not reactionary. If he seems to have been so in his dealing with the French, Spanish and Porti>. guese Separatists, with Italian. Eng lish and German modernism, and such trivial but sensational matters as the Fairbanks and Roosevelt episodes, it must be remembered that, if he acted without diplomacy, he acted in strict accordance with the traditions of the mother church, which could not be changed to meet every arriving con tingency that had Its origin outside the church. The pope announced that his pro gram was summarized in the phrase "Restore all in Christ." Before all else his efforts were directed to the promotion of piety, and he advised all to receive hoiy communion frequently, and if possible dally. It was by his desire that the eucharistic congress of 1905 was held in Rome, while he enhanced the solemnity of subsequent eucharistic congresses, notably that of Montreal and more recently that held at Madrid, by sending to them car dinal legates. Recognition of American Church Among the early reforms of the late pontiff was the introduction of Gre gorian for modern music, and. wher ever practical, the substitution of ecclesiastical choirs for the singing of paid laymen. An early "motu pro prio" abolished the Roman congre gations of indulgences and relics, founded by Clement IX. and so de veloped by successive popes as to make deep inroads on the revenues of the Vatican. Again, the first "Gerar chia Cattollca" issued under his ad ministration showed the suppression of the names of no less than six popes. American Catholics will long remem ber that in 1908 he decreed the United States should cease to be regarded as a missionary country and pass from the tutelage of the sacred congregation of the propaganda. Of course. In the larger fields of ac tivity. where the ecclesiastial policy ran counter to the temporal politics of nations, even though these nations deemed themselves still spiritually bound to the pope, the assertion of a purely dogmatic policy without the saving grace of diplomatic amenities often brought defeat upon the Vatican —that is. defeat from a utilitarian point of view. The theological point of view Is dlf- I ferent, so Is the point of view of ar- ' dent lay Catholics, who think they i have seen the church gain in spiritual strength what she has lost In ma- 1 rfi them the accession of i Plus X was hailed as a»dellverance. for they had seen with uneasiness a tend- ' ency to adapt the policy of the church i to the moving current of European policy We want a religious pone, they had 3ald. We have less need of states 'i » \ men and diplomats. Pius X turned out to be such a pontiff, whatever may have been his temporal diplomatic de feats when measured by the accom plishments of the previous pontificate. From a material point of view, when Pius X came to occupy the chair of St. Peter, in the summer of 1903, the opportunity seemed most pro pitious for a reorganization of French Catholicism. To be sure, the asso ciations law, restricting or dissolving Catholic orders, had been promul gated. But at that time there was no question of a separation of church and state except in so far as might result in a 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 a separation would not neces sarily mean decatholiclzatlon. What ultemately happened, however, was complete separation and a diplomatic rupture as well. Events in France have been repeated in Portugal and the relations of the Vatican with Spain have been far from serene. All has been due to a policy which has turned an unrelenting face toward modernism whenever found, and made possible the famous "Syllabus" of July 17, 1907. The expression of that policy was due to the personality of one man, although it was undoubtedly in spired by Pope Pius. The man in question was the successor of Cardinal Kampolla as secretary of state, Merrv 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, 1903. He was just 38 years of age, having been born in London in 1865, while his father was secretary of the Spanish Embassy there. OYi both sides he was of English descent, and his bringing up had been prin cipally English. At the age of 24 he had been admitted to the Academv of Noble Ecclesiastics in Rome, and in 1893 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 "beretta blanca" or white cap, of the Pontiff. But on the occasion Pius X folded up his red hat and put it in his pocket, and, nodding; in the direction of Merry del Val, said: "He will receive some thing else before the purple." Merry del Vel was already a titular Archbishop, having received the See of Nicosia In 1902. On October 18. 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 AUGUST 20. 1914. 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 tra ditions which the lay Catholic was apt to interpret as matters of doctrine. It would take too long to enumerate all the reforms of a religious and ad ministrative character initiated by Pius 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 1588; 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 lish historian, beihg 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, Pius X also withdrew Canada, Newfoundland, Great Britain, Holland and Luxemburg from the jurisdiction of propaganda fide, removing them therefore from among the missionary countries. The importance of the 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 O'Corinell, of Boston, and Archbishop Falconlo, former apostolic delegate at Washington, who, although an Italian by birth, is an American citizen. Tn the pontificate of Pius X the Catholic hierarchy all over the world has had the following increase: New archlepiscopal sees 18 New episcopal sees 53 New abbacies and prelacies nulllus 4 New vicariates apostolic .17 New prefectures apostolic 34 The total number of residential archbishoprics and bishoprics in com munication with the see of Rome Is 1,103. The Catholic population (i. e., in communion with Rome) of the world is variously estimated at 240,000,000 to 350,000,000.
