William Peixotto, member of the

sist American tourists in Paris and
James Smith Thompson, former pres
ident of the American Chamber of
Commerce in Paris, have informed
the Minister of Commerce that they
would like to see Americans place
some orders with French 'ndustries,
but there was the difficulty of trans
portation and also an inability to de
termine that such orders could be
filled in view of restricted postal facili
ties. Minister Thompson said steps
were being taken to re-establish the
normal freight service from the prin
cipal industrial centers and that the
Bank of France would offer the fullest
possible facilities for the discounting
of commercial paper. He added that
the government would still further
limit the effects of the moratorium in
order to permit manufacturers to use
the capital which they had on deposit
with the banks.
Brandenburg, Loaded
With Coal and Food,
May Supply Cruisers
Philadelphia. Aug. 21.—The North
German Lloyd sieamship Branden
burg to-day took out clearance papers
for Bergen. Norway, and will sail for
that port some time during the day
or to-night.
i There has been much activity aboard
| the ship for several days and it is
j stated that 10.000 tons of coal has
been delivered to her. This has been
| placed everywhere, even being piled
[in the staterooms and on deck. The
| captain explains that this big supplv is
j necessary because it will require two
months to steam to Bergen. It is also
stated that enough provisions have
been taken on board to feed the crew
for a year. The mystery surrounding
the ship has led to much conjecture
concerning her f-ture. It is reported
she will try to deliver the coal to Ger
man warships cruising in this vicinity
or else will proceed to Germany and
become a hospital ship. It is pointed
out that she is too old and slow to be
converted into a war cruiser.
The Brandenburg arrived here Au
gust 5 with passengers and cargo des
tined for Galveston. Because of dan
ger of capture by British warships it
was decided to keep the boat here and
send the passengers and cargo by rail.

Mini TO
ELECT lifflEß POPE
New Head of Catholic Church Will
Need 42 of 65 Possible
Votes
By Associated Press
Home, Aug. 21. Rome mourned
deeply to-day the death of Pope Pius,
but the sorrow did not pre\ent the
active furtherance of preparations for
the holding of a conclave of the sacred
college of cardinals for the election
of a new head of the church. There
was much speculation as to the prob
able outcome of the election, but the
view appeared to prevail that owing to
the divided state of Europe just now
it was almost certain that an Italian
would be chosen, as the Italian car
dinals form the strongest section of
the sacred college.
As a preliminary to the meeting of
the cardinals the papal secretary of
state. Cardinal Merry del Val, gave
up his office in accordance with cus
tom and all the other high officials of
the Vatican did likewise.
The late pope's physician. Dr. Mar
chiafava, declares in an interview that
his patient suffered much physically
and mentally through the outbreak of
war in Europe.
The will of the late pontiff, whose
executors, it is expected, will be Car
dinals Merry del Val and De Lai, was
written in modest language. It is said
to contain recommendations for a
simple burial in the crypt of St. Peter's
and an appeal for small pensions for
the dead pope's sisters and for one. of
his body servants.
Break Va j Occur
The greatest efforts are beiog made
by the cardinals here to prevent the
conclave's presenting a spectacle of
scrism among the foreign cardinals on
account of the conflict now waging
throughout Europe. If such a breach
should occur it is expected the foreign
cardinals would form groups as fol
lows:
The seven from France, five from
Spain, two each from England and
Portugal and one eacli from Ireiand,
Belgium and Canada, form a total of
nineteen.
The two Germans and six Austro-
Hungarians make up another group of
eight.
The neutral group is composed of
three Americans and one each from
Brazil and Holland, forming a total of
Ave.
Separately stands the bulk of the
Italian cardinals, numbering thirty
three.
The whole sacred college numbers
sixty-five cardinals, so that the next
pope needs forty-two votes to be
elected. The Italians alone or with
the five neutrals are therefore insuffi
cient. while any attempts to join either
the German or Anglo-French group
would cause other splits. Thus it ap
pears likely the choice will fall on an
Italian.
The Corriere d'ltalia to-day pub
lishes an interview with Dr. Marchia
fava concerning the illness and death
of the pope.
Pope Suffered Keenly
The doctor says that during the last
week of his life the pope suffered
keenly because of the war which is
ravaging Europe. Dr. Marchiafava
endeavored to encourage his patient,
but without success. Every time he
was informed of further armed en
counters the pontiff became sadder.
The news affected him physically
and depressed him mentally. Never
theless he was strong when death
came. Hi- malady reached him not
unexpectedly but overwhelmnigly. It
struck him when he was already tired
and in the most critical period of his
depression.
The pope's physical strength. Dr.
MarchiaJava continued, had overcome
other serious physical crises, but he
collapsed when to the illness of his
body was added his mental distress
over the horrors of the war. The doc
tor does not say the pontiff's death
was induced by his anguish, but he
does declare he probably would have
rested longer had he not been subject
to this mental suffering.
A telegram has been received here
from Cardinal Farley, archbishop of
New York, who Is in Switzerland. He
says he was awe-struck by the sudden
More Tourists Write
of Troubles in Europe
Miss Mabel Bashore. of the music
department of Wilson College, writes
from San Sebastian, Spain, to her
brother, Dr. Harvey B. Bashore, of
West Fairview, of the difficulties in
cashing travelers' checks:
"I landed in San Sebastian August
4." writes Miss Bashore. "We had
heard nothing of the war and did not
know there was trouble between the
powers until we tried to get checks
cashed. Then the trouble started. We
appealed to the American. French and
English consuls and finally succeeded
in raising money. The Frejpch consul
is now making efforts to transport
Americans from San Sebastian across
southern France to Genoa, where we
believe we will be able to secure pas
sago home."
Mrs. William M. L. Weills, of Fourth
and Mac.lay streets, received word yes
terday from her son. William Weills,
who is now studying French in Paris
after graduating from the I'niverslty
of Pennsylvania. Mr. Weills writes
that the tales of Americans stranded
in Paris are not exaggerated, as all
hotels there are closed. Americans
are not molested by the French sol
diers fmssing through the capital city
on the way to the frontier. Mr. Weills
also says he has seen many riots and
actual fighting which he will not soon
forget. He hopes to rpturn home
early in September to teach in the
Allentown high school.

Rome is In Mourning
Rome to-day is in deep mourning.
Stores remain shut and the churches
I are crowded with the faithful at
prayer. The city flaes are at half mast
and the municipality' has expressed
the condolence of the population to
the Vatican authorities. The munici
pal council has been convoked and will
decide upon some befitting way to
commemorate the memory of Plus X.
The Quirinal is especially interested
in the election of a new pope, par
ticularly as Pius X had been more
friendly disposed to the new order of
things In Italy than any other pope
since the fall of the temporal power.
When the doctor insisted that his
health was precious to the world and
that he should be calm the pope re
plied:
"How can I be tranquil when mil
lions of men are about to die? I
should have averted this war, but I
could not. If I, who have the highest
ministry of peace, do not protect the
safety of so many young lives, who
will do so?' 1
To the continued urging of his doc
tors that he be tranquil the pontiff
i answered:
"I cannot help it; I suffer for all
those who will die on the field of
i battle."

to Leave This Afternoon
New York, Aug. 21.—Two of the

which will elect a successor to Pope

nell of Boston, who left Boston yes

Pope's Sister is Not
Dead as Reported
London, Aug. 21.—An erroneous
statement was made public In London
late last night and telegraphed to New
York that Anna Sarto, sister of the
late Pope Pius X had died in Rome
shortly after the passing away of her
brother. Shock caused by the pontiffs
end was given as the cause.
It appears to-day that this report
was the result of a telegraphic error
which occurred In the transmission of
a dispatch from Rome. The pope's
sister is alive, although suffering from
shock. She was already Indisposed
when the pontiff was taken ill and yes

In the petition of the defense, the
