The Vatican announced that the cardinals will begin their conclave next week in the search for the Catholic Church's next leader.

The conclave is set to begin on Tuesday March 12th. The last of the cardinals arrived in Vatican City Thursday. Meantime, officials are preparing the Sistine Chapel for Tuesday's start. It will be locked down tight to prevent electronic eavesdropping. They will also install a chimney where the smoke can be seen to signal the decision on a new pope.
