small room near the a tar, where he

The new pope was attired all in while

T1 is is taken as a certain indication
that the nappy recipient is soon to be

As the nrw pontiff stepped from be

he rr-ai'i seemed the embodiment of his
hr,:-, office. His face was pale and soft

with a hurried movement, as though he
had sud«enlv grown weak. His back
was to the- altar and he was enthroned

uncovered heads.
The fisherman’s ring not yet having
been found, a new one was placed on
the pontiff's finger as a symbol of re
newed power and evidence that the Cath
olic church has once more a head.
In the meanwhile masons and carpen
ters had been busy breaking down doors,
so that the cardinal deacons, together
with the master of ceremonies and thw
conclavists and many others, might pro
ceed to the balcony of St. Peters. W hen
the windows on the balcony slowly
opened and the great gleaming cross
was seen by the populace below, the
excitement and impatience heightened to
the extreme.
Hot Announcement Was Made.
The usual large crowd assembled before
St. Fi ter at about 10:30 n. m. to await
the rising of the smoke from the Sistine
chapel. Hundreds of carriages stood in
the blistering sun. The colonnades were
blocked with people., but even there the
anxious watchers could scarcely escape
fiom the severe heat.
Minutes sped on and still no smoke was
seen. When the bells sounded half past 11
the ministers and others left their car
riages and joined the watchers in the steps
o. the basilica.. Inside St. Peter many
also were waiting and the suspense
brought thousands running from the
nearby streets, the delay on the fourth
morn:: g -f the conclave being interpreted
to m an that a decision had at length
been i a ■ ■ troops spread th< 1-
se.ves across the square and nervous an

After a short rest, imposed by the fa

American Pilgrims Greet Pius X.
Rome, August s.—The spirit of the
"king is dead, long live the king,” which
has been repeated through all the long
ages upon a change of sovereignty, was
the dominant note today at the Vatican
among those who gathered there, not to
acknowledge an earthly sovereign, but to
accept without reserve Pope Pius X as
their spiritual king.
Cardinal Gibbons yesterday’ secured the
consent of the pope to receive his fellow
country men.
This afternoon all were at the bronze
doors of the Vatican. They were met by
Mgr. Kennedy, rector of the American
college, and conducted to the hall of in
scriptions. After a considerable wait
there was a murmured "hush, hush!” and
two Swxss guards entered from a corri
dor. Before the pilgrims could quite re
alize it, the pope stood among them.
Pius X is a little taller than Cardinal
Gibbons, giving, however, the impression
of being a much larger man. as he is
inclined to stoutness. He has abundant
gray hair with no sign of baldness, dark,
ch ar eyes, handsome features .: magnifi
cent voice, low. to which is added a
peculiar grace, due to his musical Vene
tian accent. His whole person emanated
great dignity and cordiality.
First Day as Pope.
Pope Pins X rose at 5:30 this
morning, saying that he did not e ish
to change his habits. He slept
last night in the apartment occupied by
Cardinal Oreglia during the interregnum,
which is situated on Uie first floor of
the Vatican. N,. steps have been taken
concerning the pontiff s ultimate quarters,
but it is already said that he desires
them to be ■ xtreme.ly modest.
