INSIDE AND OUT.
Great Contrast Between Scenes Within
and Without the Vatican.

Rome, July 19.-Now that the supreme
last moment in the life and reign Of
Pope Leo is expected almost hourly, the
contrast between the quiet within and
the excitement without the Vatican is
most striking.
In the vast palace there is hushed
calm of expectation, the only apparent
wakeful souls being the Swiss Guards.
The doctors and attendants of the dying
Pontiff speak in whispers and move
noiselessly about so that from the sick
nc sound comes except the heavy
breathing of the unconscious Pope or
his occasional cries for Pho Contra and
DIR. Lappopi. His tone is one of fear,
as though he felt himself abandoned.
In the piazza of st. Peters on the
contrary, all is movement, there being
a regular encampment of journalists
before the famous bronze doors, which
are now closed in their faces and behind
which the regular tramp of the Swiss
Guards can be heard.
The Csservatore Romano, the chief
hold itself in readiness to issue almost
at a moments notice a special edition.
The only thing wanting to complete
the paper is the hour of Pope Leo's
death.
The staffs of all the other papers are
at their posts, ready to issue special
editions at any hour of the night.

MOB LAW RULES.
Unprecedented State Of Law
Iessness Out in Wyoming.
Murderers Lynched- Deputy Shot
Sheriff Calls on for Troops.
Sheriff Who Arrested CattIeren in
Danger of His Life.

Butte, Mont, July ia special to
the Miner from Red Lodge, Mont,
says: Jim German, who killed his
brother, about a year ago and ran off
with his brothers wife, and a man
named Walters, who killed a widow
named Hoover at the Hot Springs, two
years ago, because she refused to mar
ry him, were lynched at Basin, Wyo,
today. c. E. Pierce, deputy sheriff.
was killed during the attack on the jail.
\ state of lawlessness now prevails
in Northern Wyoming as a result of
which all law and order seems to have
been abolished.
Sheriff Fenton of Big Horn county,
who arrested a number of prominent
cattlemen near Thermopolis, has ap-
pealed to the governor of Wyoming for
the assistance of the militia in getting
his prisoners to Basin.
1t was reported to Sheriff Fenton, last
Wednesday morning, that a mob was
coming up to Basin from Pittsville
and Tonslip, to lynch German and
Walters and the sheriff took these two
men and a horse thief from Jail and Sc
creted them in a gulley near town, I'M
der guard.
German managed to slip his hand
cuffs and make his escape. He swan
the Big Horn river and made for the
mountains. A posse was quickly or
gained and he was recaptured, early
yesterday morning, about so miles
from Basin.
Last night a mob Of about so I'M

the Big Horn and compelled the ferry
man to carry them across the river,
The mob proceeded at once to the
county Jail, and fired volley into the
Jail. Deputy Pierce and Special Deputy
Meade We're guarding the prisoners at
the time. One bullet grazed Meade's
shoulder and entered Pierce's hertz.
Members of the mob then tore up the
telephone poles and battered the Jail
doors down. They first came to Wal
ters who was crouched in his CELL beg
ging piteously for mercy. Walters was
shot instantly.
The mob next found German, whose
body was pierced by five bullets.
A still more alarming state Of affairs
is reported from the vicinity of Their
mopolis. About six weeks ago, as re-
suit of the range feud that has been
so bitterly ragged, a sheepman, Ben
Minnick, was killed by cattlemen. The
sheriff, it is asserted, has captured the
who are all prominent cat
tlemen. Sheriff Fenton is unable to get
his prisoners to Basin. 1t is said the
same mob that lynched German and
Walters are sympathizers and have de-
clared that Sheriff Fenton will never
get out of the locality alive with his
prisoners.
1t is probable the militia will be or
dered to the scene and a bloody battle
may be fought. The country about
Thermopolis is a wild and lawless one

ALMOST AT END.
His Holiness, the Pope, Lies in
a State of Coma.
Kept Alive Only by the Continued Use
Of Powerful StimuIants.
Physicians Fear That He Will Never
Regain Consciousness.

! Rome, July -(Midnight) The
Pope lies, tonight, in state of coma
and his physicians fear he may never
completely recover.
His immediate dissolution seems to
be only averted by the reliability of the
action of his heart. His pulse. though
weak, continues steady. Shortly before
| midnight, DR.. Lapponi said to the cor
respondent of The Associated Press:
THE Pope at the present moment
is in state of coma which may be
called condition preceding the last
agony, the duration of which it Is i'm
possible to forecast, although every
thing leads to the belief that this con-
dition cannot last long, To be more
exact, he is still in a state of torpor and
stupor from which, however, he rouses
occasionally when he hears sharp
sounds, as, for instance, the insistent
voice of one of his familiars calling
loudly to him. Left alone he relapses
Immediately into condition of torpor.
AT intervals he murmurs in his sleep,
continuing to have forbodings that he
Is being abandoned by his valet Contra
and myself. These are the symptoms
of incipient cerebral anemia and gen.
eIdl SAilduSliOIl lie can no longer turn
in his bed without assistance and is
being kept alive by artificial stimulants.
During the last 23 hours he has had
two injections of camphorated oil,
three of caffeine and two of salt water,
besides drinking stimulants.
Mgr. Bislotti, master Of the Pope's
chamber, said earlier in the evening
that the pulse Of His Holiness had not
shown any signs of becoming intermit-
tent, so, despite his extreme weakness
and coma, he believed the Pope would
survive the night and possibly to-
morrow.
Both the Italian government and the
authorities of the Vatican have made
final preparations for the Pope's death.
The government is rigidly censoring
all kilograms and telephone communi-
cations between Italy and the rest of
the continent. At this hour few people
remain at the Vatican. DR.. Mazzoni
and DR.. Rossino and the cardinals have
gone to their homes to await the last
urgent summons.
