seniIe Pneumonia.

ROME, July 4.-Dr. Lapponi was alb
sent from the Vatican today between
the hours of 1 and 8 p. m. Although
no medical bulletin has been issued, it
was learned late this evening that the
popes illness may be defined as senile
pneumonia, which has settled especially
in the right lung.
The Osservatore Romano, fearing
that the suspension of audiences which
has been decided upon, would cause
anxiety, interviewed DR.. Lapponi, who
said that. the pope had been rather ia
tigued by recent receptions, and had
consented to follow his advice and take
several days rest.
His holiness, however, has been un-
able to leave his bed since last night,
and his heart is gradually becoming
weaker, necessitating frequent doses of
digitalis.
Shortness of Breath.
The temperature in the aXilla is nor
NAL, as is nearly always the case in
the form of pneumonia from which the
pontiff is suffering. The chief cause of
the patients uneasiness is shortness
of breath, due to accumulations, and
as his holiness coughs very little, there
is scarcely any expectoration of mucus
from the trachea or lungs.
Judging from the present symptoms
the diagnosis is that if all goes well
the crisis leading to recovery will oc-
cur within seven or eight days. but if
the disease takes bad turn, especially
If the heart grows weaker, a cataS-
trophe may occur in four or five days.
Some of the court dignitaries, it is
said, have been ordered to postpone
their departure for their holidays.

BERLIN, July 5.-A Rome dispatch
to the Lokal Anzeiger received at 2
o'clock this morning says that DR.. MAJ

and later announced that the condi-
ton of his holiness was still I'M
changed.
The Tageblatt's Rome correspondent
says the pontiff is suffering from a
severe Inflammation of the lungs.
Cardinal Oreglis di Santo Stefano. the
pope's chamberlain. the correspondent
adds, will prepare for the event of
the death of his holiness. in which case
he will take charge temporarily of the
affairs of the church.

E. u. Rankin. j. W. Baillie and

the owners of the Wayne County
property, and the men who have in
terested additional capital in ths
scheme to develon the lands. Mr..
Brady is capitalist. fnancier and
attorney, and one of the richest men
in Pittsburg. Mr.. Baltic is the owner
of the Wheeling Iron q Steel Com
pany. Mr.. Rankin is banker and
coal operator, who has had much ex-
perience In Pennyslvania fields. Mr..
Mitchell came into knowledge Of the
rich iron ore hidden in Wayne County
a year and half ago, and he and Is
associates have been quietly inspect

plans. Everything Is now in shape,

said that by the middle of next month
the plans that have been ripening for

81. P. PADGETT.
Postmaster Hughes Will leave to-
morrow for Washington, where he
hopes to settle the whole controversy.
He will also make an effort while
there to secure the immediate estab-
lishment of the remaining eight
routes to be established in Maury.
These routes, 1t was announced some
months ago, would be established the
coming spring, but owing to the
squabble which lately arose over turn
pike passage, it was feared the routes
would be considerably delayed. 1t is
believed now that they will DO institu-
ted at once. and that by June l every
route in the county that has been
surveyed will be in operation.
Thus ends satisfactorily a matter
which looked at one time as if the
people of Maury county would lose one
of the greatest convenlences ever es-
tablished in the county. and it is a
matter of much qualification to every
citizen that the rural free delivery
service will be preserved.
The Columbia herald. [volume] (Columbia, Tenn.) 18??-1935, 1903-02-27

The trouble regarding tolls on the
rural free delivery mail routes in
Maury county, which has been of such
absorbing interest for the past six
weeks, because of the fact that at one
time Il seemed as though several Of the
most important routes leading out of
Columbia would be abolished, is now
in course of adjustment, and it is be-
lieved that IN few days the trouble
will be settled.
The plan Of settlement will be a
reduction by the turnpike companies
to the carriers, in the way OF
special rate. and the carriers will
pay their own toll. This agreement
could have been made in the begin
ming, but somehow the erroneous i'm
preston prevailed in the postoffice here
that the Government would not only
not pay the toll. but would not allow
the carriers to do SO; hence all the
trouble. Letters were written the gov
eminent questioning it as TO its posi-
ton ON that proposition, but no
replies were received. a letter re-
ceived yesterday, however, from
Congressman L. P. Padgett to
well-known citizen Of Columbia, who
ecame interested in the carrier toll
question and has been acting as a
mediator between the turnpike COM
panles and the government, states
that the government will not object
to the carriers paying the tolls. This
virtually ends the trouble, as the car
riers are more than willing to pay
the tolls, rather than lose their routes.
