"On the first poll, Rampolla gained 24 votes, Gotti 12, Sarto 5, Vannutelli 4."
How is this known? Conclaves are secret!
I don't think secrecy was instituted until later in the 20th century. I think there is a diary of some 20th century conclavist recording exact vote tallies.
Of course, that doesn't mean we should trust any putative historical records posted on the Internet.
