Red Hats Conferred on New Cardinals

At a public consistory held December 9, Pope Benedict conferred the red hats on four of the six cardinals created at the private consistory the previous Monday.
The prelates so honored were Cardinals Tonti, Gusmini, Cagliero, and Mistrangelo. The red hats for Cardinal Scapinelli, papal nuncio at Vienna, and for Cardinal Fruhwirth, papal nuncio at Munich, were dispatched by special messengers to those cities.
By special dispensation of the Pope, Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria and the king of Bavaria will impose the insignia upon the two cardinals who were absent from the ceremonies.
