C FRIDAY AFTERNOON SE JOT I ki mniFf IIWI J III I 'At twenty-five minutes bcfor? eleven o'clock Cardinal Delia Volpo appeared on the balcony with Monslgnor Capestostl bearing the Pope's cross on his right and pronounced the ritual announcing the election of Cardinal Delia Chlesa. To this he added that the new Pope had chosen the name of Benedict XV. Again the crowd of Reveral thousand persons oneered, and at once begap to pnake their way Into the Bascillca to hear the benediction of the new pontiff. It tfc asserted on good authority in Rome that the new Pope will appoint Cardinal Domenico Ferratta his secretary. * ^ Cardinal Qlacono Delia Cbiesa was created a cardinal May 25, 1914. lie is the archbishop of Bologne, Itafly. He was born at Pegll In the diocese, of Genes, November 21, 1854. and was ordained a priest December 21, 1878. He served as secretary of the nonclature In Spain from 1883 to 1887, In which year he wa3 appointed secretary to the late Cardinal Rampolla. He was appointed substitute sectary of state in 1901 and in 1907 was elected to the Dost of advisor to the holy office. In the same year be ^as appointed papal nuncio of I Madrid In succession to Monsignor Rlnaldlnl but this appointment was cancelled three days later. This incident had occurred Just beforo he was made arohblshop of Bologna. When Monsignor Dela Chiesa was given this post it was declared in Rome that it was mainly with the object of combatting modem religious ideas, E&logna being the headquarters of the National Democratic League whose members advocate what Is known as "modernlBUi" In religion. In January^ J914. at- Bologna the 'present Pope issued a pastoral letter Btrongly condemning the tango. It has been 174 years since the time of the last Pope Benedlcte. In his election to the papkey in 1740 Cardinal Prospero Larnberiini assumed that title. It Is au interesting fact that the new Pope was archbishop of Bologna while Pope ^ Bendtcte XIV. was born in Bologna. According to a dispatch from Rome yesterday and received in New York, the White Star Line steamer Canopic bearing Cardinals Gibbons and O'Connell to Rome was not due . at Naples until tomorrow. Therefore, it 1h probable that neither of inese two Amentau wiumaiii !?><<.> cip&ted in the election of the new Pope. That the choice falls on a cardinal of Italian birth coincides with tradition and with expectations an account of the disturbed conditions in Europe. It was at the age of twenty-four that the new Pope was ordained In the priesthood. He son attracted the attention of Cardinal Rampollt. later secretary of state for Pope Leo XIII. As secretary to the socrotary of state. Cardinal Chiesa was brought into notable prominence throughout the Catholic hierarchy, but his position wag not at Chat time of cardinalist rank. On the accession of POpe Pluji X. Mortsigroou- Delia Chiesa continued in the secretariat until December 16, 1907, t^hen Plus X. gave him a noted promotion to the position of archbishop of the Important seo of Hologna. For seven years he administered I the see of Bologna wtih notable success, until In May last Pope Plus X. named him among thirteen mem| bers of the hierarchy to receive the [ red hat. i The full title of the new Pope In aaaiuun iu ncununw a ? . w..i uc Pope Bishop of Rome and successor of St. Peter, Supreme Pontiff of the Universal church, patriarch of the weat, primate of Italy. archbishop and metropolitan of the Oman .province, sovereign of the tempera!

C.. and other coast cities indicate that the view is general, that there will be another revolution inside of a year. Revolutionary agentB have been working tirelessly all up and down the Pacific slope and much money unqueetlon&bly has been sent from the United States to finance an uprising. Because President Yuan Shi Kal, while just as reactionary, is a. stronger man than any of the great' officials of the fallen Manchu reglme, the revolutionists assert con-1 dltlons in China are worse than before th* last Overturning. What the agitators want is a republic of s advanced a type as to average on a condition of pure socialism. The view is freely expressed in Chinatown that matters would be greatly facilitated by President Yuan's assassination and good Judges of the situation say his life will be an extremely poor risk for an insurance company so long as he remains in office.
