IS POPE CEREMONY PIUS’ FIRST Only He inls Are Pre t Public s to Par- ticipate in Thursday's Honors, ROME, ‘Nov. 9.—The first secret con- Slstory of the new pontiff was held today, No American cardihal was appointed. Ser eral appointments of archbishops and bish- ©ops were made, including that of Rev. J. J. Harty as archbishop of Mantia, P. I., who, as an exceptional privilege, received the palilum at an extra consistory when he came to Rome for consecration. Rev. Pedro Gonzales y Estrada was ap- pointed bishop of Havana and Rt. Rev. Maximillian Reynoso y Delcoral, formerly bishop of Tulanoingo, Mex., was appointed titular bishop of Nocesarea. The inhabitants of this city had been looking forward with unusual interest to the consistory principally because it was the first to be held by Plus X. The meet- & of the cardinals, however, was quite simple and private, the pomp and cere- mony of the Vatican court being reserved for the public consistory which will be held Thursday. Only the pope and the cardl- nals were present today. The latter, ac- cording to custom, gathered early iIn an ante-chamber, near the hall of the consis- tory, from which they passed into the lat- ter place, the many papal guards in at- tendance rendering the honors. The cardi- nals took their places according to prece- dence. The pontiff rose at his usual hour and after a private mass he partook of a cup of coffes and went for a brisk walk in the third loggla, returning in time to @ress for the ceremony at 11 With Pomp Solemnity. The pontiff walked from his apartment, accompanied only by the personages in im- mediate attendance upon him. As he en- tered the hall of the consistory the plcture produced waa very striking, the red gowns of the cardipals and the white robes and #0ld and red mantles of the pope giving a pleasing. coloring to the scene. The com- manding appearance of the pontifft was somewhat softened by, his silvery halr, un- der which his blue eyes gleamed with pleasurs and friendliness. He wore the full pontifical robies which are only used at a the bishop of Havana, and Rt. Rev. Max- imilian Reynoso y Delcoral as titular bish- ops of Noccassare, followed. The pope then arose and bestowed the apostolic blessing, after which he returned to his appartments. Among the confirmations at this morn- ing's consistory were those of Rev. Thomas A. Hendrick, as bishop of Cebu, P. 1, and Rev. Manuel Orne y Vivanoo, as bishop of Pinar del Rio, Cuba. Rev. B. F. Roderick, formerly of Hartford, Conn., and the auxiliary bishop of Havana, Cuba, was ap- pointed titular bishop of Guilanopolt.

All the members of the papal aristocracy, the diplomats accredited to the Vatican and the clergy of Rome pald their respects to the new cardinal. Rt. Rev.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Nov. 9.—(8pecial.)—"God rec- ognizes all races and color, whether white, black or yellow, and in this world of ours the negro should have the same chance in the race of life as the white man,” said Bishop Earl Cranston of Portland, Ore., at the meeting of the committee of the Freed- men's Ald and Southern Educational so- clety this morning. The speaker asserted that the negro ran the whole gauntlet of human prejudice, -that he was denled the rights of the white man and that he was ccntinually pushed back ft was the opin- fon of Bishop Cranston and other speakers who followed him that the negro should be glven the same advantages as the white man in the matter of schools and that Christian education would settle the race problem. Bishop Waldon of Cincinnatl and Bishop Hamliton of San Francisco spoke of the Ereat progress that had been made among the colored people since the organization of the assoclation and that the negro was susceptible of education and teaching. Bishop Waldon said in the south the white people held their conferences apart from the negro and that the negro conferences were conducted with as much dignity as were those of the white people. Bishop Hamilton told that the negro chil- dren were being trained along industrial lines. He sald forty years ago the negro | did not own a foot of land, while today | many of them were paying large taxes. | He indorse the course of President Roose- velt regarding the colored man and said he was glad the country had such a man for president. Bishop Mallalieu of Boston spoke of the great improvement made in the condition of the colored people. He sald since the soclety had begun to help them there was a marked change in their dress and habits and he predicted greater improvements in the future. The committee met at 8t. Paul's M. E. church and the visitors were welcomed by Rev. Fletcher Wharton, pastor of the church, who told them on behalf of his congregation that they were welcome to the hearts and homes of the Lincoln people. Bishop Walden responded and told of his | visit to Lincoln in years gone by when It was iittle more than a village. Recelpts and Expenditures. The report of Treasurer H. C.

Miss Knecht was taken to a hospital last Feb- ruary in an unconscleus condition. After forty-seven days she partially revived, but soon sank into a comatose condition again and never fully recovered consclousness. The soclety has given to the schools, in cash appropriations from the general fund, during this quadrennium, $110,68 more than was appropriated for this purpose during the previous quadrennium. The board, however, is convinced that the appropriations for this year, even without greatly increased receipts, is beyond the ability of the soclety td meet, without leaving a large deficit. This is largely due to appropriations urgently needed for in- dustrial work, amounting to $35,400 since 1900. The new statement of indebtedness showed the liabilities in the general fund to be $163,%7.14 and the resources $26,572.78. In the special fund the liabilities amounted to $24,463.72 and the resources $18,60261. In the endowment fund the llabilities are $82,- 22092 and the resources $§2,220.62. In the annuity fund the liabilities for general purposes are $46,048 and the resources, bills recelvable, are the same. The amount due the general fund is $126,694.35 and $5,861.12 is due the special fund. The total indebted- ness of the soclety is $13,555.48. ¥ New Bulldings and Equipment. The three and a half years of this quad- rennfum have probably never been sur- passed in the history of the society in the number of new buildings erected, or the amount expended in scientific Industrial and |Uibrary equipment and general furnishings.
