As shown by last nights bulletin. the

sion. The doctors reported feeble but
rapid pulse. which was generally taken to
inIcate the wearing out of the patients
sorces. The favorable symptom recorded in
he morning of the lowering of
the pleuritic fluid was sufficiently
nraintained to relieve the Pontif of
hts painful struggles for breath, which
lately have been so frequent. The doctors

cessity for another operation, which seemed
so imminent on Thursday. The sleepless
night Friday was succeeded by day dur
ing which the Pore seemed to lack any de-
sire to vary the medical routine by re-
ceiving visits from cardinals or others. Both

lated from all save the doctors and at

this evening pointed TO the fact that it
had not mad any beneficial effect What is
now most hoped for is that the Pope may
be enabled TO secure much-needed rest. This
morning. however. he was agitated and
nervous from his long stay in bed and called
very frequently for mis- attendants.
HEAT INCREASING.
The heat is beginning to increase. The
shutters OF the Popes bedroom window
almost closed, the window is open and the
curtains are drawn back. II is reported
that steps will be taken to install an elec-
tric fan in the room.
The Cabinet ministers had held several
meetings Saturday to discuss the attitude of
the government on the death of the Pope.
and it has been decided that if the Vatican
does not notify the Italian government of
his death, and does not notify the other
governments, Italy will not officially partic-
ipate in any manifestations or mourning.
but limit herself To maintaining public order
and insurng full liberty forsthe conclave as
prescribed by law. In arriving at such
decision. the ministers declared that they
had been guided by the wish 10 protect the
dignity of the state and by no lack OF
respect for the aged Pontiff. towards whom
there have been many ehivalrous manIfes-

of the Pope's health, and from the whole

Among the latest of the many evidences

Francis Joseph of Austria TO the Pope.
Their peculiar medicinal properties, it is
asserted, may relieve the seeretionary disor-

THE NEXT CONCLAvE.
A number of cardinals and, especially,
their friends. utilized the prolonged illness
of the Pope to test the feeling which will
prevail at the next conclave. The task is a
difficult one, as. IL is asserted. the cardi-
mails never had chance to show their met

inquired into by only five cardinals. are

foregoing complaint. Much diversity of
opinion and much uncertainty regarding
the candidates still exists. However, the
most probable candidates remain those
whose names have been mentioned
since the Pope first became Ill. To
Cardinal Gotti. prefect OF Propaganda, the
objection Is made that. he belongs TO

OF recent events. be taken as a challenge 10
