or white smoke if there is a new pope.

an energetic reformer from Argentina
led the Catholic Church for 12 years.
All but four of the cardinal electors -- those aged under 80 –
who can vote in the conclave are already in Rome,
cardinals of all ages have been meeting daily
to discuss the challenges facing
the next head of the world's 1.4 billion Catholics.
problems such as sexual abuse and financial scandals -- among other issues
xyz are among the favorites to be the next pope.
But there is an old Roman saying that he who enters the conclave a pope, leaves a cardinal –
a warning that the favorite rarely emerges as the winner.
the Church is in prayer mode,
but it must also put itself in surprise mode
"Remember what happened with Pope Francis -- what a surprise!" '
Once in a lifetime'
the chimney -- a thin metal tube with a capped top -- went largely unnoticed.
"It definitely is a historic moment
it definitely feels special to be in Rome
"It feels like a once-in-a-lifetime thing,"
There are 135 cardinals eligible to vote in the conclave,
but two have withdrawn for health reasons.
These were Cardinal Antonio Canizares Llovera, Archbishop emeritus of Valencia in Spain,
and Cardinal John Njue, Archbishop emeritus of Nairobi in Kenya, the Vatican confirmed.
the cardinals will take an oath to maintain the secrecy of the election, on pain of excommunication.
That first day they will hold one ballot, with the winner
-- technically any baptized male, but in reality always one of their own –
needing a two-thirds majority, or 89 votes, to win.
During the following days they will hold two votes in the morning and two in the afternoon.
If a winner is elected, the ballots will be burned in the special stove
with the addition of chemicals to emit a white smoke
to alert the waiting world to the decision.
If no candidate has enough votes during the first morning vote,
the cardinals will proceed to a second vote, and only after that point will the ballots be burned.
The afternoon session follows the same procedure –
if a pope is elected, there will be white smoke,
but if not, the cardinals will proceed to a second vote and only after that will the ballots be burned.
If no pope is elected, the smoke emitted by the chimney is black.
The ancient signaling system -- which still remains the only way the public learns whether a pope has been elected –
used to involve mixing wet straw with the ballots to produce white smoke, and tarry pitch to create black smoke.
But after several episodes in which greyish smoke caused confusion, the Vatican introduced a new system in 2005.
At the last conclave, in 2013, the Vatican used a mixture of potassium perchlorate, anthracene and sulfur to produce black smoke,
and potassium chlorate, lactose and rosin for white.
Details for the procedure of next week's conclave have not yet been confirmed.
