The troops ou duty immediately lined
up on the plena and presented srw.
At 10 mimosa atter 12 o'olook this
afternoon Pope Pius X. appeared inside
the balcony of the basilica and blesss4
the populace amid the acclamations of
the enormous orowd assembled upon the
piesse.
Pope Pius X. hes expressed his desire
not to dissolve the conclave until this
evening, Itis supposed that the oar-
dlnele, will, therefore, remain In their
present geartere until about 7 p.m.
He was sleeted on the seventh ballot,
after three days and a half of deliberti-
tion.
It was reported yesterday that when
Cardinal Sarto received the good wishes
of hisfriends he replied, smilingly ; "Ah

While Prince Chigi, the master of the
enclave, was drawing up the Moist

new pope, the latter, surrounded by his
'riends disappee. into a small room
neer the eat

whits robes of leis ofloe.
Plus X. was +twisted by his conolavtet,
who first knelt and kissed his master's
heed and thus received the first "pa-
tella bos
lessing given by Pius X.
When he was robed, the seoretary of
the conclave, Monsignor Merry Del Val,
kneeling, offered him the papal white
eap, amidst breathless silence. He did
not follow the precedent created by Pope
Leo, who declined to give his red cap to
the master of eeremonles; but, with a
slight smile, Marto took the white cap,
placed it calmly on his head and drop-
ped the red one lightly on the head of
Monsignor Merry Del Val, amidst a
murmur of approval. This is taken aa
a certain intimation that the happy res
olplsnt is soon to he raised to the car-
dtuelayt.
As the new pontiff stepped from be-
hind the altar, the only touch of Dolor
about him being his red and gold shoes,

clearly soifened by emotion. He paused

Pius X then rose and in a voice at
