THE POPE Is Ill.
His Condition Grew Worse, He
Having Caught a Cold.

Rome, July st appears that the
condition of the pope became sudden
~ worse after Fridays drive in the
vatican gardens when, notwithstand-
ing the fact that the temperature was
90 degrees Fahrenheit, he caught cold
and 1T settled in his chest and head
producing shortly afterwards diffuse
bronchial catarrh, accompanied by a
slight cough, thirst, lassitude and wa
terry eyes.
fortunately. up to the present, nc
fever has developed, not even in
creased heat, and there has been nc
acceleration of the pulse, which is
rather weak.
All the efforts of DR.. Lapponi tend
to combat the catarrh and to prevent
it's further spread, especially it's de-
velopment into bronchitis or infam.
nation of the lungs.
Feeling his responsibility, DR.. Lap.
POM would have liked to have con.
sultation with the best physicians in
Rome, but the pope absolutely re-
fused to agree to this. He said he
had entire confidence in DIR. Lapponi
and added that the only other person
he would allow to be called was DR.
Mazzone, who operated on the pontifl
in 1899. When DIR. Laponni remarked
that DIR. Mazzone was surgeon and
that therefore his professional ser
vices were not needed, the pope re-
piled:
ut does not matter, it is not fol
his professional services that 1 want
him, but because I like him.
1t has therefore been decided that
DR.. Mazonne shall visit the pope this
morning.
Although no medical bulletin has
been issued, it was learned that the
pope's illness may be defined as senile
pneumonia, which has settled espec.
tally in the right lung.
The Osservatore Romano, fearing
that suspension of audiences, which
has been decided upon, would cause
anxiety, interviewed DR.. Lapponi, who
said that the pope had been rather
fatigued by recent receptions and had
consented to follow his advice and
take several days rest. His holiness
however, has been unable to leave his
bed since Friday night and his heart
is gradually becoming weaker, neces.
stating frequent doses of digitalis.
Judging from the present symptoms
the prognosis 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, espec.
tally il the heart grows weaker, a
catastrophe 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.

the World by the Way of
the Philippines

New York, July 5.-The last con-
nection in the Commercial Cable COM
pany's line was made at Honolulu last
night at 1850 o'clock, eastern time,

The Filipino people and the Ameri-

to present their respectful greetings
and congratulations to the president
of the United States, conveyed over
the cable with which American enter
prise has girded the Pacific, thereby
rendering easier and more frequent
communication between the two coun-
tries.
ut will certainly lead to closer
union and better mutual under
standing of each others aims and
sympathies, and of their common in
terest in the prosperity of the Philip
pines and the education and develop
ment of the Filipinos. 1t is not in
appropriate to incorporate in this, the
first message across the Pacific, from

with the broad and liberal spirit
which the American people desire to
manifest toward the Philippines and
of which you have been an earnest eX-

KILLED BY ELECTRICITY.
Broken Wire Drops Into a Pool of Water,
Charging the Same to High
and Fatal Degree.

Pittsburg, Pa, July 6.-An Ameri-
can flag Saturday indirectly caused
the death of four persons during an
electrical storm in which the flag,
soaked by water, blew against heav-
lily charged electric wire, causing it
to break and fall into pool of water
at Forbes and lakewood avenues. The
pool was alive with 1000 volts and
the four persons met death by falling
into the pool. Shortly after the wire
fell into the puddle, Joseph Visa,
while running through the binding
rain to seek shelter, stepped into the
pool and dropped dead. Those who
saw Visa fall were unable to rescue
him at the time, and while means of
recovering the body were in discus
sion, carriage containing seven per-
sons came down the. street to escape
the rain. Shouts of warning were not
understood. One horse fell into the
electrified water and was paralyzed.
The occupants of the carriage,
alarmed by the unexplainable falling
of the horse and by the frantic cries
of the. onlookers, began to jump from
the vehicle. Four leaped to the side
of the rig away from the pool and es-
capped. Francesca Stotte, "a years old;
Giuseppe Stotti, % years old, and
Giuseppe Renda jumped into the pud-
die and died. 1t was some time before
the bodies could be taken from the
water.
