When Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto, Patriarch of Venice, was eventually elected Pope Pius X at the conclave, he abolished the use of the veto, declaring that anyone attempting to interfere in the election of a new pope would be excommunicated. He decreed that at the start of future conclaves the cardinals must take an oath that they were not aiding any civil power in an attempt to influence the election.
Falling ill on the feast of the Assumption (15 August 1914), Pope Pius lingered for just five days and died on 20 August, following a heart attack.
In the papal election of August 1903...cardinal, Mariano Rampolla del Tindaro, was by far the most popular candidate. But Cardinal Rampolla...was blocked by the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz Joseph through powers known as the Jus exclusivae, which allowed a select group of Roman Catholic monarchs to veto any would-be pope of whom they disapproved.
