The Pope has always eccupied but a few simple rooms, containing little beyond necessaries. His bed stands in an alcove, separated from a large room by a cur- tain hanging gracefully over marble col- umns. Above the bed is a picture of the Madonna and child. Beside it is a prayer table surmounted by a crueifix. A war?- robe against the wall faces the bed and between the latter and the wall Is a couch. The rest of the room is used as a study and contalns a writing table with a crucifix, a chair on a carpeted platform, chairs and tables for the Pope’'s secreta- ries, writing materials and a few books, among which are the works of Dante, Virgil and Horace, besides a Bible. The only window of the combined bedroom and study overlooks the rolonnade of the plaza of St. Peter's. Adjoining is a small room furnished only with an arm chair and lounge, where the Pope some- times took an afternoon rap. The rooms are on the same level as the famous log- gla of Raphael. The Pope objected to having the oxy- gen-inhaling apparatus continuously un- der his nostrils and Dr. Lappon! arranged to impregnate the whole atmosphere of the room with oxygen. “That is much better,” said the Pontiff, “Before 1 felt as though I had lost my Mberty."” d in slept only four or five hours each night | | e Vatiean, Count de Temerin, being the Pope expressed his sorrow at his | iliness When the Pope was informed of Em- | sta | ¥ i — e CONSUL AT AFIA TAKES TUTU 1-bu | troubled noan waters from San Franecisco. the afi al me ican der of cis The CHARGE OF ILA, ilt Samoa, Ju experience sin afled from nt 1o0ner wa rge A.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., July 6.—The body of the man who committed suicide by shooting in Whitneyville last Thursday has been identified as that of Sculptor John Donoghue of New York. The iden- tification was made by D. H. Robbins of New York, who said that a few days ago he recelved a note from Donoghue an- nouncing his intention to commit suicide. NEW YORK, July 6.—Donoghue's sul- cide is said to have been the result of despondency due to the rejection of his design for a $50,000 memorial to the late President McKinley, which it is proposed to erect in Philadelphia. Donoghue had executed some notable pieces of sculpture that were highly praised, both at home Rampolla Does Not Seek the Crown. Wants to Be Pres fect of Prop- aganda. Special Dispatch to The C: OME, July 6.—There is great ac- tivity among the Cardinals now that It is certain that a conclave cannot be far off. It is even said that there has been an exchange of telegrams in cipher between the mem- bers of the Sacred College iIn Rome and those in the provinces or abroad. Innu- merable rumors are ecirculating, and scarcely any Cardinal is deprived of the flattery of being considered a candidate. However, besides those mentioned in these dispatches yesterday the only can- didates who are regarded as having a falr chance are Cardinals Svampa, Archbishop of Bologna, and Cardinal Richelmy, Arch- bishop of Turin. Cardinal Rampolla {s belleved by many to have the best chance of being elected. According to the most accredited Vatican gosslp, however, Cardinal Rampolla has entered into an agreement with Cardinal Gottl, prefect of the congregation of the propaganda, to support the election of the latter on condition that he himself be ap- pointed Gotti's successor as prefect of the propaganda, the holder of which post is called the “Red Pope.” BERLIN, July 6.—Germany's 20,000,000 Catholics will bring powerful influence to bear against any attempt to influence the action of the consistory charged with the election of a Pontiff. The domination of German political life by Catholics, which has compelled the most obvious sort of recognition on the part of the Kalser him. self, makes |t certain that the whole strength of the Imperial Government will be used to defeat the schemes of any na- tion or clique that tries to turn the elec- tion to selfish advantage or anti-German purpose. While Germany's two votes in the Sa- cred College are impotent of themselves, their connections throughout Catholle Rome are so extensive as to command formidable support even among the pre- dominant Italian prelates. Only a few days ago certain jealous French authori- ties published a polemic against “German conquest of the Vatican,” describing how the religious orders in Rome, the pon- tifical court and all consultative depart- ments of the Vatican had undergone Ger- manization. Vannutelli and Gottl, two Cardinals re- garded as most likely candidates for the succession, both rank in Berlin as friend- Iy to rmany. Gotti has received sev- eral decorations from the Kaiser. The ideal Pope from the German stand- point would be Cardinal Agliardi, former- ly papal nuncio at Munich, who is known an ardent pro-German. What is most gratifying to Germany is the fact that the election of Cardinal Rampolla seems excluded. Almost any Pope not allied to Rampolla’s “French- Spanish-Italian clique” would be satistac~ tory to the Catholics of the Fatherland. —_———— Rampolla Still Hopeful.
