TradCatKnight: “Team Bergoglio” and the legacy of Cardinal Mariano Rampolla del TindaroIt has been a little over 111 years ago, since another controversial Conclave met and elected a now famous Pope. That was the Conclave of August 1903, and the Cardinal elected was St. Giuseppe Sarto, who took the name Pius X. Several historians, basing themselves on the testimony of none other than Cardinal Merry Del Val and Cardinal Matthieu in the last hundred years have sustained that that Conclave was marked by a remarkable occurrence, the veto by the Austrian Emperor, Franz Josef I, against one of the leading contenders, Cardinal Mariano Rampolla del Tindaro, the Secretary of State of Pope Leo XIII. The motivation of this intervention has been attributed by Msgr. Jouin and Craig Heimbichner (the latter in his book, Blood and Altar) to the association of Cardinal Rampolla with French Freemasonry.
