Vatican workers begin installing chimney atop Sistine Chapel for conclave

Workers at the Vatican began to install a chimney on top of the Sistine Chapel to be used during the conclave that begins May 7; an AFP reporter witnessed Friday.

Cardinals vote in secret in the chapel for a new pope and reveal to the waiting world the outcome by burning the ballots in a special stove, with the chimney emitting black smoke if no one has been elected or white smoke if there is a new pope.
