ROME, July o-Monsignor Volpin'

day, died early this morning, shortly
after the doctors In attendance had an.
nounccd that all hope OF saving his liee
had been abandoned. Although the con-
dition OF the Pope is still the center OF
interest, the case OF MonsIsnor Volpini
has attracted much attention, not only
because OF his Office Of secretary OF the
Conslstorlal Congregation. to which ho
had Just been appointed by Pope Leo,
but also on account of tho manner In
which he was seized by his fatal IL
ness; and it is hardly possible to de-
scribe the sensation and emotion which
prevailed mt the Vatican when his death
was announced.
From the moment lie was stricken
and fell to the floor, N[onsignor Volpinl
lost entirely the power OF speech and
the use of the entire right side OF Ills
body, and he was apparently Unconscious
when he died. The cause of death was
cerebral congestion.
