NO POPE YET, AS BLACK SMOKE RISES FROM SISTINE CHAPEL CHIMNEY FOR THE SECOND DAY.

For the second consecutive day, black smoke has risen from the Sistine Chapel's chimney, signifying that the cardinals in conclave had not yet agreed on a new pope. 

The smoke is a centuries-old tradition indicating an inconclusive result from the latest round of voting, and the cardinals will continue deliberations until a consensus is reached.

Thousands of people are still gathered in St. Peter's Square, eagerly awaiting news of a new spiritual leader for the Catholic Church.

White smoke will ultimately signal the successful election of a new pontiff, but the world must wait a little longer as the cardinals continue their discussions to choose the next Catholic Pontiff.
