POPE NOT OUT Of DANGER.
Is DIsINCLINED TO OBSERVE THE
ORDERS OF DOCTORS.
Attending Physicians Issue Reas-
suring Bulletins-No One IL Al
lowed to Enter His Apartments

ROME. March 81 a. m.--The latest
news from the vatican Is that the pope's
temperature at midnight had fallen sew
eral points. II appears that his disinclin-
alton to observe the recommendations OF
his physicians forms an obstable in the
way OF prompt recovery. He has fun
confidence In his own strength and does
not readily acquiesce In their advice not
10 move. During the afternoon he insisted
upon leaving bis bed without, assistance,
and also read several kilograms. The rise
in his temperature. which had given some
anxiety. was probably caused In part in
this way
The doctors exclude everybody from his
apartments except his personal attendants.
Prof Mazzoni remained in readiness dur
ing the evening TO proceed TO the vatican,
IL needed, but up 20 Ii o'clock he had not
been called and at that hour he did not ex-
pect to so until daybreak.
The pope said during the day: "Is Is
miracle Of God that l stiIl alive. for
He wishes to spare HIS church n terrible
crisis at the present moment"
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon the doc
tors made a prolon ged visit. lasting more
than an hour. which caused some uneas!-
ness. but on leaving they gave reassuring
reports, Prof. Mazzoni saying there was
no, the leas, fear that the pleura, bronchial
tubes or lungs would be affected The
pope's nephews also visited him In the
course Of the afternoon and LEFT his cham
Der much pleased with his progress.
Despite the optimistic reports grave

several interesting developments In the

members Of the various volunteer regi-
ments which served In Cuba ard Porto
Rico The frs, of these, Clarence Waters.
a first volunteer engineer. told a sensational
story of hardship and irfhumanity suffered
during his service. describing the canned
roast beef In harsher terms than have ever
before been applied TO that much discussed
article.
Later in the day Lieut.. Seweli. L. 8. A.,
who was major OF the volunteer battalion
In which Walters served, contradicted his
story completely. saying there was no can
ned roast beef aboard the transport which
took the command TO Porto Rico. Further
than that, he said Walters had come TO him
after landing and asked 10 be discharged
so as to accept a position as newspaper
correspondent and on being questioned said
that ne had been well treated while in the
service and had no complaint TO make.
The court of inquiry held a long execu-
tive session before beginning the exaInina-
ton OF witnesses today.
Sensational Testimony by Volunteer
The test!mnay OF Clarence Walters. OF the
First Volunteer engineers. of New York.
was rather sensational.
He was asked what his experience with
canned beer had been on the voyage OF hts
transport TO Porto Rico and replied that
the first can that he saw opened had worms

developed such putTd odor that II was i'm
possible TO have it about He ate some OF
II and was made violently sick The men
OF his company complained az the meat ard
the eoYnmlSsslry sergeant refused TO accept
II. Some of the meat was given to the sur
geon Major who tested IL and said ii was
all right The sergeant cornmissary was
compelled to accept II but did so under pro-
test. Nearly all the men os his battalion
were ssek throughout the snost OF the voy-
age a. a result OK eating this meat.

HOMES OF THE VIRGIN MARY.
The site Presented by the Kaiser to tn.
Pope.

The Site Presented by the Kaiser to the
Pope.
4 memorable incident of the German
Kaiser's visit to Jerusalem was the
presentation to him by the Sultan Of q
small lot Of ground reputed to be the
site OF the Virgin Mary's home in that
city. The Kaiser promptly turned the
lot over to the Pope, to be held in trust
tor the Catholics Of Germany. This lot
is not, as some of the papers nave as
serted, vacant one. A two story es-
tablishments devoted to business pur-
poses has stood there for the last two
centuries. This will probably be torn
down. and chapel or church will be
erected upon It. The attendant excaya-
tions may reveal something to confirm
or deny thetradition that here the vir-
gin Mary lived with her son during the
last three years Of his life, when he
appeared to the world as prophet and
Messiah.
u There are many spots IN the Holy
Land which are associated with the
Mother of God. She was native of
Nazareth, Christ was born to her at
Bethlehem, he was brought up under
her care at Nazareth. Later the family
domicile was transferred to Jerusalem.
After the crucifxion, according to the
legend, Mary fed with st. John the
Evangelist to Ephesns, where the be-
loved disciple built her a house, in
which she spent her last days
= In Nazareth is still pointed out the
remains OF what Is claimedsto be the
erstwhile home OF the Holy Family.
This is now portion OF the Latin Con-
