POPE DEAD; ILL FOR FIVE DAYS, (Continued From Page One.) j sages from Cardinal Gasparrl, Papal Secretary of State, had indicated the Pontiff’s death might be expected at anp moment. i Immediately upon news of the Holy Father's death the national Catholic welfare council here made efiorts to get in j touch with Cardinal Dougherty by naval, wireless. Cardinal Dougherty succeeded 1 the late Cardinal Gibbons as the senior prelate in America. lie is now at sea. returning from a cruise in the M eat Indi. s, and is expected to go to Rome immediately on his arrival. Eulogy of the Pontiff was delivered here today by Monsignor Ronzano. Apostolic Delegate to the United States and an Archbishop in the Catholic Hierarchy who at one time served in the Papal Secretariat with Benedict XV when the latter was only a priest. “The rule of Benedict XV as war Pontiff was characterized by mammoth accomplishments and usual diplomacy. Manager Bonzano said. 'His broad endeavors wo ? h" acclamation ' f statemen from all parts ot th- ■ ' rid 1 tant and Catholic alike lie aas an cart - ! cst supporter ”f r> 1 *-f r the str kin ■ peoples of all nations during wartime, and was generous with his own purse, as well as that of the Church. No worthy ; cause failed of his support and no hu- j inanitarian movement went without his j blessing. ‘Pope Benedict XV's regime ns bishop of Rome and head of the Roman Catholic Church saw greet works performed for the Church. Relations, which had been severed for long periods of years, were re-established with the Pane! See by France, England, Portugal. Poland, Czechoslovakia and several South American republics. Ills Holiness was a mu..of unusual personal charm. “During tlio war he maintained i strict ,: 'itratify and exerted every <•! fort o brine about a ■ c-sa,? :• nos i.v-f i 1 ties. Long before peace was declared the Pope had made proposals for peace.” Monsignor Bonzano refus'd to comment on the selection of a successor to Pope Benedict, saying that any one of iho reverity Cardinals was equally eligible and that the matter was entirely one for the conclave of Cardinals to decide, if the necessity arose. 1 j POPE BENEDICT XV Pope Benedict XV rose to the supreme head of the Catholic Church sept. C, 1914, less than six months after he was elevated to the cardinalship. He was born of noble parents at Pegli, near Genoa. Italy, Nov. 21, 1834. iiis father was Marches: Delli Chen si. Educated at Capronican College and tho Academy of Ecc! -siastica. he was ordained to the priesthood in H7S> lie was taken to Madrid, Spain, by Cardinal Itampolla and for four years was secretary of the Nunciature in Spain. In 1901 he was appointed secretary of the Cyohrer and in 1907 Pope Pius gave him the appointment of archbishop of the See of Bologue. He was made a cardinal in May, 1914. Pope Benedict was much affected by the horrors and sorrow of the World War and many times tried to bring about peace negotiations. Germany’s violation of Belgium's neutrality tilled him with great sorrow and after the sinking of the Lusitania he telegraphed the German Emperor his abhorrence of the deed. Pope Benedict’s first appeal for peace was Issued one week after Ills coronation. The appeal failed to bring results, as did 1 also bis later plan for a Christmas truce. In January and in July, 1915, ho again tried to bring about peace negotiations. In March, 191(5, he repeated his attempts and in May of the same year suggested i that America should act ns a conciliator 1 between the warring nations. IDs note to President Wilson to this effect reached 1 Washington when Germany and the United States were Involved in a diplomatic i crisis. The Vatican approved of Pros!- ' dent Wilson’s peace note in 1917. but three months later the United States en- I tered the war. The Pope’s most memorable appeal for peace was Issued in his own handwriting. ' on Aug. 8, 1917. and asked belligerent rulers to end the struggle. During the peace conference his pleas were Issued , In behalf of weaker nations. Just before the conference President Wilson had a private conference with Pope Benedict at the Vatican in which many questions of a social and luterna- j tional nature were discussed. The settlement of the 750-year-old Irish problem was received with great pleasure by the Pope, who Issued a message eon j gratulating the principals In the negotia tions. INJURED BV SKIDDING VITO.

He opposed any suggestion that the Issues to lie discussed at the Genoa conference should be left to tho league because, under such circumstances, the United States would be excluded from the discussions. The Premier said that Germany should eventually pay, revealing that an agreement had been reached before the Cannes conferences permitting Germany to defer indemnity payments He hoped such a plan might be adopted at Genoa.

BONDSMEN ARE PUT UNDER BAN BY CITY COURT Judge Wilmeth Determined to Block Mercenary Practice. Judge Delbert O. Wilmeth today took steps to stamp out sfflieiting for attorneys and bondsmen by “runners” who frequent the turnkey's office and the hallways of the city eqprt room. Special orders were issued by the court and copies were sent to the turnkeys, Samuel Lewis Shank, mayor; member >f the city council, the board of public safety, and Herman F. RikUoff, chief of police. The orders Indicated Judge Wilmeth, who has been on the bench of the city court less than one month, already Is familiar with tho methods used by professional bondsmen, a certain small group of attorneys, and tho "runners” for these men. His orders, if carried out, will at least Interfere with the wholesale soliciting that has apparently been going on at -lolice headquarters. It has become customary for "runners” to look at the slate in the turnkey's office, obtain the names of prisoners and then go to another room where this name is given either to a bondsman or an attorney who has been In waiting. HERE’S HOW SYSTEM WORKS. The bondsman or attorney Immediately goes to the turnkey’s office, asks to see tlie prisoner whose name he has obtained, and when he is permitted to talk to him, his first question is: “Have you any money'/” and “How much?” The man with money is taken care of, provided he wishes to spend It. The man without money is “unfortunate," and remains in the cellrootn. • Judge Wilmeth'* order follows: “Records of prisoners in the city prison are not to be shown or divulged to any one, except the mayor, members of the city council, board of public safety, members of the police department, reporters of Indianapolis newspapers, and city court officers. PRISONER MI ST V-H 1(1 It BOND. “When prisoner is searched and slated, no one Is allowed to be present In turnkey's room, other than above named. After a prisoner is searched and slated, lie is to be asked if he desires to get Into communication with any relative, friend, lawyer or bondsman. If he has such desire and furnishes the turnkey with name an I telephone number of tfuch person, the turnkey will telephone such person and Inform him of the prisoner’s desire to see Min at the city prison. "Relatives may be admitted to the city prison to talk to accused. '•Attorneys are to be admitted to the city prison to consult with a prisoner only after being called or employed by said prisoner. "Bondsmen are to be permitted to talk to prisoner only when -ailed for by the accused. “Loafers and persons having no buslui ss in the turnkey's office, are to be excluded therefrom at all times."
