Doctor Rossoni being already in the ante

the disease being SO variable. He added
that nothing grave was the matter. but
that Doctor Mazzoni and he. through con-

the past often spoken OF Cardinal Gibbons
as possible successor to Leo XIII The
idea was for many reasons too daring to
become reality: but it would not have ap-

Cardinal Gibbons's position excessively DELI
