Rome, April 14-All indications point to the utmost gravity of the pope's condition. At midnight the fever and cough were giving cause for great alarm. The impression had gained ground that the tracheal bronchitis had developed into pneumonia.
 While not absolutely denying this, Professor Marchiafava said:

 Great alarm was occasioned about II o'clock when the pope during a strong attack of coughing emitted quantity of blood Those present thought that he was dying and rushed for doctor and the Cardinal Merry Del Val The latter on reaching the bedside restored calm, saving that probably the pope would feel great relief, as the presence of the blood was doubtless due to the rupture of small vessels in the throat Polish Pilgrims Misinterpret Bells.
 There was another alarm yesterday afternoon hundred Polish pilgrims, led by their bishop, were within the basilica. when they heard the sound of many bells Thinking that this was the announcement of the death Of the pope, they gathered around the bishop and intoned prayers for the dead.

 Sisters at His Bedside.
 The pope's sisters and niece drove to the vatican and the pope, observing unmistakabIe signs of Weeping, said in the Venetian dialect, which seemed tenderer than pure Italian:

 Since he has becoEQe weaker, 1t has been remarked that the pontiff speaks only in Venetian. even with those who are not so familiar with that dialect. The sisters took turns during practi- eaIly ths whole day at the bedside of their brother, who says that he feels he can endure his suffering better when one of them is near.
