This morning began the first of those grandiose and uuhpie ceremonies which follow the demise, of a pope, and although pri vate it was conducted with great pomp. All the cardinals present in Home, 29, assembled at the apostolic palace to view the remains of the late Leo XIII. and officially pronounce him dead. Cardinal Oreglia, dean of the sacred college and camerlengo of the holy lloman church, had put aside his cardinal's robes as a sign of deep mourning and was gowned entirely in ioIet. The tither cardinals wore crimson robes with violet collars, in dicative of mourning. Within the death chamber, with a. white veil over his face and on a bed surrounded by Franciscan enitcntiaries, lay the dead pope, while outside the noble guards maintained a solemn vigil. Prayers for the Iead. The profound silence was only brok en by the chanting of prayers for the dead. Into this solemn presence came the procession of cardinals who, kneeling silently, prayed and then the prelates reverently looked on while Cardinal Oreglia approached the re mains. The while was removed from the dead man's face. A moment of breathless silence endued, then Oreglia, taking the uspersorium, sprinkled the late pontiff with holy water, and said in a firm voice, Gio aechino!" (christian name of the de ceased father). When there was no answer, the same word was repeated three tinws, after which, turning to the kneeling cardinals, the camer lengo solemnly announced. "Papa ere morcuus est" (the pope is really dead). After this, in voices trembling with emotion, the ranking cardinals recited de profundis and gave the ab solution, sprinkled the body with holy water, and then the fisherman's ring which was on Leo's finger was taken gently off by the camerlengo and la ter will be broken in the presence of the cardinals, reset and presented to the new pope when elected. Tba Funeral Ceremonies. Today fTie sacred college of cardinals assembled for the impressive ceremony of officially pronouncing Pope Leo dead.

Tope Leo's final moments were marked by that same serenity and de votion, and, when he was conscious, that calm Intelligence which is asso ciated with his twenty-five years' pon tificate. Ills was no easy death. An hour before he died, turning to Dr Lapponi and his devoted valet, Pio Centra, he murmured: "J.ne pain 1 sui tr la most terrible." Yet his part Ing words were not of the physical anguish that he sunerea, out were n,-hincred benedictions upon the car dials and his nephews, who knelt at the bedside, and the lasA look ot his HEAVY HAILSTORM VISITS MINNESOTA Destructive in Nature and In tensive in Area Loss of $1,000,000.

LAST WORDS OF THE PONTIFF II Confides the Church to Cardinal Oreg lia Death Was Calm and Serene. Practically all the cardinals now in Home, kneeling at the bedside, watched the passage of his soul. Earlier in the day Cardinal Seratino Yannutelli had impressively pronounced the ab solution in articulo mortis. The condi tion of his holiness varied from agony to coma. Wishing to relieve him Dr. Mazzonl suggested that morphine should be administered, but Dr. Lap poni did not agree, fearing that the end might be quickened. During his closing hours the pope's mind lived in the past, except when he had a lucid interval. At one time thinking of some grand ceremony of the church, apparently, he said: "What crowds! What devotion! My dear peo ple!" Then recurring to some time when the weight of official care was heavy he murmured: "Oh, the weight of these robes. Can I hold out until the end?" Next the close of some controversy seemed to come to him and he was heard to saj: "The consistory Is over! They can reproach me no longer! How many faces of all kinds! How many foreigners! The church is triumph- lng"' To Oreglia,' In a moment of con sciousness, he said: "To your emi nence, who will so soon seize the reins of supreme power, I confide the church In these difficult times." This was his last utterance, except that when Bisletl asked his blessing he granted it and added: "Be this my last greet ing." Of the death Dr. Lapponi said: "It was resigned, calm and serene. Yery few examples can be given of a man of such advanced age after so ex haustive an illness showing such su preme courage In dying. The pontifFs last breath was taken exactly at four minutes past 4. 1 approached a light ed candle to his mouth three t'mes, ac cording to the traditional ceremonial, and afterward declared the pope to be no more. I then went to inform Car dinal Orglia, the dean of the sacred college, who immediately assumed full power." UIS CAIlEEK IN PARAGRAPHS Told from Hit Birth to the Nineteenth Anniversary Thereof.

"The Issue is plain." said Stlllwell; "these manufacturers want to remain united in their associations, and separate the workers, so that they may take ad van tage of them."

CASSINI CORRECTS Says the Question of Open Ports in Manchuria Is Still an Open One. HAD A TALK WI1H SECRETARY HAY Cut Nothing Was Settled, He Asserts Looks for a Satisfactory Agreement. raris, July 21. Count Cassinl, the Russian ambassador to the United States, who is here with his daughter upending part of his leave of absence In Paris, where he has an apartment near the Champs Elysees, In an inter- icw said: "It Is not correct, as cabled. that I arranged with Secretary Hay before my departure the question of open ports In Manchuria. It is truo that Mr. Hay called on me June 2K, but it was a friendly visit and entirely unofficial. The Manchurian ports wera mentioned during our conversation, but no definite arrangement was completed. The conversation was quite cordial, courteous and friendly; but it did not go beyond that. Ilefer to the Jawlih Petition. "I expect, however, that a mutually satisfactory understanding regarding Manchurian questions will eventually be reached between the two govern ments. But. I repeat, no such nrranue- inent has been made by me. What has been done by the charge d'affaires since my departure, fourteen days npo, I do not know. Regarding the Israelite 1 tition, the United States government already knew that such a petition would not be received. No such peti tion would be receive! by any inde pendent state. The United States, first of all. would not consent to. any for eign interference in its domestic af fairs. Beyond this, I do not know any thing about the matter. Expect to Keturn to HI Pott. "My relations with the United States government have always been pleasant and cordial during my long stay at Washington. My present absence from my post is due to the fact that I ain taking a much-needed holiday. I did not see the president before my de parture, as he was absent from Wash ington. I saw Mr. liny, ns stated, but our interview was not official; but it was extremely pleasant. I expect to rclurn to ray post as soon a my leave expires, which will be in three months." Count Cassini will remain here ten days longer and then will go to St. Pe tersburg. WHAT nE SAID AT WASHINGTON Ai to tlie Tenor of the Conversation with Hay on the 28th or Juna. Washington, July 21. In a conver sation at the Itussian embassy on the afternoon of June 2i with the Asso ciated Press representative Count Cas sini referred to the call of Secretary Hay to the day previous and expressed his gratification at it sresults. The ambassador, in reply to the question as to whether Manchuria was under dis cussion during the call, replied in the iifllrniative. stating that he had assured Hay that Russia would execute to the letter her pledges in Manchuria, and at the proper time would concede cer tain, ports. The ambassador then re- callled the conversation between him self and the secretary, pointing out that while no agreement had been reached as to which ports should be opened the broad understanding was arrived nt that Kussiu should give to the United States what she had asked for. To this, it was said. Hay expressed his satisfaction, and as he was leavimx Count Casfiui said that he hoped an announcement to the world of the ex act ports which would be openoft would be possible in a few weeks. It is believed here that the point the am bassador' Is endeavoring to make is that the general understanding reached between himself and Secretary Hay at the conference on June 2.'t did not specify tho ports to be opened, which at that time had not been decided up on. Moreover, when the ambassador says no definite agreement had been reached it is assumed that he refers to the fact that no written exchanges passed between Secretary Hay and himself at that time.
