For wale at The Evening Star office and all news CARDINAL SATOLLI Ceremony of Conferring the Berretta at the Baltimore Cathedral. A DISTINGUISHED ASSEMBLAGE A Long and Brilliant Procession of Priests and Attendants. > ELOQUENT ADDRESSES MADE The berretta of a cardinal has been con- ferred on Francis Satolli, Archbishop of Lepanto and apostolic delegate to the Unit- ed States. The second step in the elevation of Mgr. Satolli to the cardinalate of the Roman Catholic Church was taken yester- day in Baltimore, and the pope’s delegate is now a prince of the church. The remzining step is the conferring of the red hat, which must be done in Rome by the pope himself within six months from November 30, the day upon which Sa- tolli’s appointment was gnade. The first step in the elevation of Mgr. Satolli was the conferring of the zuchetto, or red skull cap, and the administering of the oath. The berretta is similar to caps worn by priests, except that it is red. A Distinguished Assemblage. The ceremony took place in the cathedral at Baltimore. It was the same edifice in which the first American bishop was or- dained and the first American priest also ordained, and which ts presided over by the only American-born member of the College of Cardinals. 2 It was filled to the doors with a congre- gation which numbered among its members many of the most prominent ecclesiastics, diplomats, legislators, educators and jour- nalists in America. Archbishops, bishops and eminent professors represented the Catholic Church in the congregation. The Vice President of the United States, and numerous Congressmen, Senators, judges and minor officials were present. is Mer. Sbarretti, ablegate of the pope, pre- sented his credentials in the morning, these credentials deputizing Cardinal Gibbons to confer the berretta and announcing Mgr. Satolli’s elevation to the cardinalate. The Procession. While this scene was in progress within the palace, the procession was forming in front of Calvert Hall, a block away. At 10 o'clock it was ready to start, and whea formed, the participants were arranged as follows: First came the processional cross-bearer, with the crucifix raised high in the air, and flanked on either side by a boy in cassock and surplice. Following him were a long line of students from the various Catholic colleges, after which came seminarians from St. Mary’s; then priests, then Francis- can monks, in their garb of brown. Fol- lowing these came the members of the fac- ulty of the Catholic University in Wash- ington in long robes of black, lined with many-colored silks. After these came halt a hundred bishops and a score or more of archbishops, the purple and gold of their rich vestments glistening and their im- mense trains held up by little boys in bril- Nant vestments. In this formation they marched through Cathedral. to Charles street and passed the palace of the cardinal, where they were joined by his eminence, Who took his place last in the line. Upon his head he wore the red berretta, an exact duplicate of the one which he was soon to confer upon the man who will for some time, at least, share his honors in this ‘country. Upon his shoulders hung the beau- tiful cloak of cardinal silk and ermine, with half a dozen train bearers, clad in cardinal velvet and gilt braid. In this order they walked along up Mulberry street to Cathe- @ral, where they filed into the cathedral through the main entrance. Mar. Satolli Appears. Mer. Satolli was not in the procession, but as the head of it reached the altar, he, ae- companied by Mgr. Sbarretti, Marquis Sacri- panti, the member of the Noble Guard who brought the cardinalitial insignia here, and the priests who had been deputized to as- sist him in the coming ceremony, entered the cathedral from a rear door, leading from the palace, and advanced to the front of the altar. The students and seminarians filed to the right and to the left as they passed in front of the high altar, finding seats on either side. The others in the procession advanced within the sanctuary and took the places reserved for them, As the procession wended its way down the center aisle the organ, a full orchestra and a chorus of fifty voices rendered a tri- umphal march. hen Cardinal Gibbons reached the altar he bowed low to Satolli, who returned the salutation. Cardinal Gib- bong then took his place on the gospel side of the altar, and Mgr. Satolli upon the epis- tle side. The deacons and assistant priests were as follows: Assistant priest to Cardinal Gib- bons, Very Rev. Dr. A. L. Magnien, superior of St. Mary’s Seminary; deacons of honor to Cardinal Gibbons, Very Rev. Dr. William O’Brien Pardow, provincial of the Jesuits, subdeacon of the mass, Rev. George Dougherty of St. Augustine's Church, Washington. The Formal Notification Read. When all had taken their places Dr. Reoker of the university at Washington, advanced and In Latin read the following dccument to Mgr. Satolli from the pope: Our beloved son, health and apostolic benediction. Although unworthy, being corstituted by divine mercy in the sublim- ity of the apostolic see, and by virtue of our office, having care of the welfare of the Catholic Church, among our chief solic- itudes is that the college of our venerable brothers, the cardinals of the holy Roman Church, should be kept brilliant by most Cistinguished men, as the dignity of that most splendid order demands. For this reason we have determined to inscribe you in their number; for your great piety, your zeal for the Catholic faith, your learning, prudence and other most admirable quall- ties and gifts of mind lead us to hope that your ministry will be of great use and benefit to the church of God. To you, there- fore, created by us a cardinal of the holy man Church, we send on one of the in- -scrofula Any doctor will tell you that Professor Hare, of efferson Medical College, iladelphia, is one of the highest authorities in the world on the action of drugs.

The oil should Bs to be be given sn emulsion, wo prepared He also says that the hypophosphites should be combined with the oil. Scott’s Emulsion of cod- liver oil, with hypophos- phites, is precisely such a preparation. signia of this sublime dignity—the red ber- retta—by our beloved son, Donatus Sbarret- ti, one of our private chamberlains, in or- der that, when it shall have been conferred on you, you may understand, by the mark of the brilliant purple, that you, having been raised to the cardinalitial dignity, must ever stand fearless and invincible against all dangers for the church of God, even to the shedding of your blood,precious in the sight of the Lord. We sincerely hope that you will receive kindly and treat with all consideration the person whom we send to you, both because of the mission he is fulfilling and for our sake. We desire, however,that before you receive the berret- ta you should by all means take the oath which will be presented to you by the said Donatus Sbarretti and return it signed by your own hand to us either by the same or by_some other person.

Another papal brief, addressed to Car- cinal Gibbons, was read by Father Mag- nen, after which Mgr. Sbarret‘i advanced to a point in front of Cardinal Gibbon's throne and delivered an address in Latin, saying in conclusion: “I beg your eminence to receive these in- signia as a pledge of the high esteem and affection of XIII toward the American church and people, and as a well-deserved reward to him who has used, with such marked success, all his zeal for increasing the honor and extent of the holy Catholic Church in America.” When Mer. Sbarretti had finished speak- ing Cardinal Gibbons responded briefly in Latin, and then, turning toward the throne occupied by Satolli, spoke in English, and raid a high tribute to the work of Mgr. Satolli in this country. During his address he said: “It must be a source of special gratifica- tion to your eminence to contemplate around you on this auspicious oceasion so laige a number of the leading prelates and clergy of the country, who cherish a high edmiration for your talents and learning, and venerate you for your apostolic virtues, and who have gathered here from various Lortions cf the United States and from Canada to testify by their presence their joy and satisfaction at the eminent dignity to which you have been by our holy father, Leo XIII. - “May your august benefactor be spared some years yet to experience your gratitude and devotion to his sacred person; and may your eminence’s life be prolonged for many years to adorn the Sacred College by your talents; to enlighten it by your experience, and to edify it by piety and bright ex- ample.” Conferring the Berretta. The vast congregation became all atten- tion as it neared the most interesting point in all the ceremony, that of conferring the berretta. Cardinal Gibbons descended from his throre and advanced to the front of the altar. Behind him came his attendants, Father Magnien bearing the berretta. As Cardinal Gibbons reached the altar and turned to face the audience Mgr. Satolli rese, and, escorted by Sacripanti and Chamberlains Kelly and Bristead, walked toward Cardinal Gibbons and knelt. Car- dinal Gibbons took the berretta from the sil- ver salver on which it rested and slowly unfolding it held it high up so that the audience could see it. Then stooping, and with what seemed to be a softly murmured prayer, he placed it upon the head of the new cardinal. Cardinal Satolli rose, and for the first time in its history there were two cardinals upon America’s soil. Cardinal Satolli's Address. Cardinal Satolli then delivered the follow- ing address: Your eminence: From the day in which I received the first notification of the in- tention of his holiness to promote me to the csrdinalate, and of his determination that the insignia of that sublime dignity should be conferred upon me by your enminence’s hands, I rejoiced that it was through you that I was to receive this token of pontifi- cal favor and honor. For from the time of my coming to this country I have received from your eminence nothing but the great- est kindness and consideration, and this sciemn act of today is but a fitting crown to those relations which have so happily existed between us. It was you who received me at my coming and who immediately became my friend and most zealous protector. It was with the aid of your wise counsel, and comfort- ing encouragement, and with the continued assistance of all the prelates of this great American hierarchy, that my labors pro- gressed and were crowned with success. He reviewed his life in this country and continued: . I hope and pray that this will mark the beginning of an era still more brilliant and still more prosperous for the church, and for the country. May the success which has attended the development and growth of this great nation go on increasing; may its power and importance grow greater and make themselves more and more felt throughout the world for the good ef hu- manity. I can promise you that through- out all the rest of my life I, who have re- ceived from this generous people so kind ard cordial a welcome, shall never cease Gally at the altar of God to pour forth my most fervent prayers for their welfare. In Cardinal's Robes. At this point In the ceremony the newly- made cardinal, who had worn the robes of an archbishop, retired to the inner sanc- tuary and in a few minutes returned clad in the gorgeous apparel of a cardinal. He was seen in this but a few moments, however, as he was almost immediately robed in the white and gold vestments of the mass, which he was to celebrate. As- sisted by his priests and deacons he pro- ceeded with the mass. When the gospel was reached a movable pulpit was pushed to the center of the auditorium and Arch- ishop Kain of St. Louis, ascending it, de- livered the eermon. Archbishop Kain’s Sermon. He chose for his text I Tia., v.17: “Let the priests, that rule well, be esteemed worthy of double honor; especially they who labor in the word and doctrine.” Archbishop Kain compared the govern- ments of the United States and of the church, saying that the cffice of chief ruler in the United States,as in the Roman Cath- olic Church, is elective, yet not by popular suffrage, but by an electoral college in the one case and by the college of cardi: in the other. He said also that the colli of cardinus is in the church what the Senate is in the United States. He stated also that in the church, as in the United States, “| the highest offices are within reach of all her sons, and the rule holds good that pro- motion goes by fitness and preferment. Archbishop Kain next paid @ high tribute to Cardinal Satolli. A Cablegram From the Pope. At the close of the mass Cardinal Gib- bons rose and said that he had the inter- esting announcement to make that the holy father had cabled his congratulations find that he had authorized the speaker to pronounce the apostolic benediction upon all those present. At his request Br. Rooker read the cable- gram, which Cardinal Gibbons said he wished particularly to say was spontaneous and not evoked by any suggestion from this side of the Atlantic. It is as follows: To His Eminence, Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore—The extraordi- nary splendor accompanying the conferring of the berretta upon Cardinal Satolli grati- fies the holy father beyond measure, and he asks your eminence to express his sat- isfaction. Furthermore, as a token of his deep appreciation, he empowers your emi- nence to impart to all present at the cere- mony the apostolic benedicticn. The cardinal closed the ceremony by pro- nouncing the benediction. INSIGNIA OF THE CARDINALATE. Descripti the Zucchetta, Berretta ms Hat. Cardinal Satolli has one other of the in- signia to receive—the fisherman's hat. This will be placed'upon his head by the pope himself when he goes to Rome. The right of the cardinals to wear the scarlet, or fisherman's, hat was granted by Pope In- nocent IV in 1244. The pope places the hat upon the head of the cardinal to signify that he is to consecrate his mental ac- quirements to the service of the church, and its color signifies that the wearer must be prepared to iose the last drop of xis blood rather than betray his trust. The fisherman's hat is round in form, with a low crown and wide brim, from the inside of which hang fifteen tassels, attached in @ triangle form, one to five; or, in other words, it may be said to resemble in form an old-fashioned peasant’s sun hat, with a broad, flat brim, having on either side of it @ number of tassels netted together with silk cord. The hat is now used but twice, once when the cardinal receives it in con- sistory, and next when it rests on the cat- afalque at his obsequies. It is then sus- pended from the ceiling of the chapel or aisle of the church from which he may be buried. Cardinals have not infrequently been called upon to carry into execution the resolutions they meke upon the recep- tion of the hat. So, in 1219, Frederick II bead his Lae ag Rome, where aah nn n crowned with great pomp by Pope Honorius, ordered the exechtion | of several cardinals for speaking out too boldly in defense of ecclesiastical privileges. It was in commemoration of the violent death vf these men that Innocent IV granted the privilege of weuring the red hat. They first wore the insignia of the office in 1246 in the city of Cluny at the meeting of In- nocent and Louis of France. Innocent X decreed in 1644 that no cardinal should place his own family coat-cf-arms upon his coach or over the door of his church ta conjunction with the hat and other insignia of the cardinaiate, but Clement XI re- voked this, so that cardinals, if they choose, can use their own crest and coat- of-arms. In olden times the cardinals wore their hats when they went out riding. Ia the south gallery of the Peabody Institute Cardinal Duprat is represented as thus at- tired when entering Sens, the chief city of his diocese. Now the cardinals in Italy going out only wear the ordinary black hat with a tassel, though on state occa- sions the hat is sometimes of scarlet hue. The zucchetta, from the Italian zuccha, a gourd, is a small, closely-fitting skull cap shaped like a eaucer, and of red color. The zucchetta is Indifferently known by the sev- eral names, calotte, pileolus, berrettino and submitrale. It is called calotte in French, from its resemblance to e shell. Berrettino is a diminutive berretta, and it received its “submitrale” from the fact that it used to be generally worn under the bishop's miter. Commonly it is called gucchetta. If a new cardinal is absent from Rome a zucchetta is sent to him by a member of the Noble Guard, as was done in the case of Cardinal Satolll. The guard is charged with a speci: letter from the secretary of state, announc- ing their elevation. This presentation was made to Cardinal Satolli &t Washington, and is seldom, if ever, made in a church, and in his case was made at the Catholic lega- tion, a full account of which was published in Saturday's Star. The berretta is a square cap with three or four wings or prominences, according to rank, rising from its crown. The berretta of a priest has three wings; that of a prelate four. When first introduced, which is gen- erally supposed to have been soon after the ninth century, it had none of these corners, but was pliant and plain, something like an ordinary cap. The difficulty, however, of putting it on and taking it off the head was sometimés very great, and hence it was deemed advisable to have it so fashioned that it could be used without trouble. This led to the introduction of the wings. A car- dinal’s berretta is red, and made of silk. Cardinals alone wear the berretta of a red color, for Pope Paul II, who granted this privilege, prohibited, under the most rigor- ous condemnation, any one trom adorning his head with a like ornament. The berretta is sent to distant cardinals by an ablegate or spirituel pontifical messenger, who must be one of the pope's private chamberlains. ——_—_+0+—___ AN UNFOUNDED RUMOR. None of Admiral Bunce’s Ships to Go = to Turkey. Considerable interest has been manifested in Washington over the published reports of the probability of the mobilization of Ad- miral Bunce'’s North Atlantic squadron, and possibly also some of the ships of the South Atlantic and Asiatic squadrons, in Turkish waters, as a measure to compel the porte to comply with the demands of the United States for indemnity for damages suffered by American citizens, and for protection in the future of citizens of this country resid- ing in the .sultan’s territory. The story found no credence among those well in- formed of the doings of the administration, and its improbability was pointed out. It can be stated positively on unquestioned official authority that any statement that one or mére of the three squadrons men-. tioned have been ordered to Turkey is un- true. It is represented that even if such a step were necessary, the government would not likely at this time hazard the absence from the Mtlatitic coast of the vessels of the North Atlantic squadron, and thus leave the vast seaboard practically unprotected. The government, it is believed, is inclined to adopt, for the present, at least, a pacific course for the protection of its subjects in Turkey, and wait until the porte shows an absolute persistence not to indemnify the Americans to the extent they have suffered before taking more drastic steps to enforce payment of amounts they demand. —————-—2____ The Santa Claus Pound Party.
