Togo's Digestive
Organs Succumb
To Acute Attack
And Jap Admiral Unable to
Sample Any of Boston's
Famed Baked Beans
Especial from United Press.o

Boston, Aug. 17-Suffering from an
acute attack of Indigestion, Count
Togo, vice admiral of the japanese
navy, has cancelled his program for
today. He will remain in his suite
at the lorraine Hotel all day and I'M
less he is much improved will cancel
his program for. Friday.
Count Togo's condition became
known, today, when Captain Templin
M. Potts, director of naval intelligence
at Washington, who is acting as To-
COS escort, called at the lorraine
royal suite and asked if it pleased the
Count to start on the days rounds. He
was informed by member of Togo's
retinue that Admiral Togo was strick-
en- with acute attack of indigestion
shortly after he reached the hotel at
H. last night and that he felt in no
condition to leave his room, today.
The famous Japanese naval fighter
was to have started shortly before 9
o'clock on tour of Boston, where he
expected to make calls at the city
hall to meet Mayor Fitzgerald and at
the Charlestown Navy Yard. Province
town, at the point of the cape, was
to be the next objective point where
Admiral Togo was to be shown what
Uncle Sans ships can do in the line
of smashing targets several miles
away.
A banquet at the Algonquin club
was to finish the night. The program
may be carried out by extending the
visit another day.
Friday it was planned for the Count
to visit the Fore River Shipbuilding
Works and Harvard College. His
schedule calls for leaving Boston at
p. m, Friday. for Buffalo.

during the past decade: in 2 states
of this division--Vermont and New
Hampshire-the rural population has
decreased. while in others the in
crease in rural population is less than
5 per cent. and in 1 state-Rhode Is
land-it is only GA per cent.
Considering the states without re-
gard to geographic location, it ap-
pears that in every state and terri
tory of continental United States there
has been since 1900 an increase in
urban population, while in Z states
there has been an actual decrease in
rural population. In all but 2 states
Montana and Wyoming-the urban
population has increased faster than
rural population, and generally at a
very much more rapid rate. There
is no state or territory in which the
increase in urban population was less
than 10 per cent. and in states it
was more than 100 per cent. and in
13 other states between so and 100
per cent. There are % states, on
the other hand, in which the rural
population either decreased or showed
an increase of less than 10 per cent.
while there are only states in which
it was between so and 100 per cent.

Pope Very Feeble
But Able To Walk
New York Times Correspondent
Sees Pontiff Looking Like
Shadow of His Old Self

The New York Times had the fol-
lowing special cable from it's Rome
correspondent this morning:
To-day, for the first time, the watch
around Pope Plus, which had render
ed him unapproachable, was relaxed.
Partly through friendly persuasion
I succeeded in entering the papal
apartments. l crossed the immense
Clementine Hail., the room of the
Pope's chair bearers, the hall of the
Swiss Guards, and the Throne Room.
All the rooms were empty until
reached the, apartment in which Pope
Leo died, the last room before the
large library, which has been trans
formed for the time being into the
Pontiff's bedroom.
I'm Pope Leo's room I was stopped.
Under the present Pontificate it has
been used as small throne room, and
in it the Pope's secretaries, the doc
tors in attendance, and high prelates
of the Vatican discuss the situation
and the chances of recovery or relapse.
From it, whenever the door of the
library was opened to allow the PopeS
sisters or some official to pass, 1 was
able to look into the library, where
the Pope.s bed occupies space be-
ed by screens.
'I saw the Pointiff thinner, paler,
more bent than before his illness.
looking a shadow of his old self. He
was dressed in white, and his white
skull cap was hardly distinguishable
on his white hair. He moved very
slowly, leaning heavily on stick,
while a valet followed, ready to sup
port him.
.'Thus, seeming very fatigued, Pope
Plus crossed the library and reached
his desk, which is near the entrance
door. He sat in his usual armchair,
having on his right a tall crucifix and
in front a statue Of Joan of Arc. He
gazed almost despairingly at the ac-
emulation of papers before him.
1.-The impression I received was that
the Pope can hardly be called con-.
valescent."s
