SHADOW OF DEATH H0VERS
OVER J. PIERP0NT MORGAN

ROME, March 3O.-J. Pierpont
Morgan is in a most critical condi-
ton. This is the official announce
ment made to-day by the attending
physicians. For several days he has
been unable to take any nourish-
ment and his weakness has given
rise to the gravest apprehension
Up to Saturday night Mr.. Morgans
son-in-law, Herbert l.. Satterlee, and
the physicians made every effort 10
conceal Mr.. Morgan's true condition.
The bulletin issued tonight, however.
indicates that the worst is to be
feared if a reaction does not, Speed
lily set in. DR.. NJ. Allen Starr, of
New York, the noted nerve Special
list, was summoned from Naples. DR..
Starr had already made an exa.mina-
ton of Mr.. Morgan on the latter's
return to Naples from Cairo. He
reached here last night and visited
Mr. Morgan Immediately. He visited
him again this morning, and for
third time in the evening. Professor
Giuseppe Bastianelli and DIR. George
A. Dixon also were in attendance.
The only nourishment which the
patient has been able to receive for
several days has been through injec-
lions to which the physicians had TO
resort, and they fear this is not suf-
ficient to sustain him for any length
of time. -...-4.
DR.. Starr was startled at the change
in Mr.. Morgan's appearance since he
saw him only a short time ago at
Naples and was much concerned
again to-day over the change which
had occurred even since last night.
There are four trained nurses
from the Anglo-American Nursing
Home in attendance. Mr.. MOrgans
pulse, which has been very weak for
the last few days, is gradually be
coming weaker The insomnia from
which he suffered is with difficulty
being combated by drugs, but the
narcotics are having a pronounced ef-
feet on his heart. The most distress
ing symptoms for those surrounding
him is the patients complete silence.
For this reason it has been impossi-
Bile to say whether he now realizes
his condition.
The last words uttered by Mr..
Morgan were a request to have his
limbs massaged a treatment which
had often been given to him on for
mer occasions when suffering from
nervous disorders.
All attempts to make the patient
swallow anything, even water have
been vain. The physicians explain
that this is due to the lack of func-
tiOnal vitality in the nerve CenterS,
which, under such conditions, arrest
the functioning Of the organs. They
are opposed to the desire of Mr.. and
Mrs Satterlee to remove Mr. Nor
gan to London, considering that any
exposure at present would be ex-
tremely dangerous.

GREAT POWERS OF EUROPE
DEFIED BY MONTENEGRO

LONDON. March 3o.-The stub
bornness OF Montenegro in continuing
the bombardment of Scutari, contra
ry to the wishes of the powers, and
the dilatoriness of Servia in with
drawing her troops beyond the line
decided upon as the frontier Of the
future Albania, if not overcome by
more peaceful measures. Will lead to
a demonstration and blockade of the
Montenesrin coast and the ports Of
Albania occupied by Seryia.
Austria Hungary is losing patience
with her little neighbors, and is urg-
ing the powers to take action TO en-
force the demands contained in their
notes to Seryia and Montenegro.
When the naval measures are taken
il is expected this duty will be al
lotted TO Great Britain. Italy and Aus
tria. Russia, although she joined in
the collective diplomatic action, will
not participate in the cOercive steps.
SeTvia has expressed her intention
of complying with the powers de-
mand to evacuate Albania. but has
made no movement in the direction
and the Austrian government COM
plains that instead she is sending
more war material 10 that territory.
Austria insists upon the immediate
removal Of The SerEians from the
country.

HUERTA AND DIAZ ARE
NOW REPORTED AT ODDS

MEXICO CITY, March 3O-The
Mexican Government has made
formal protest to the American Gov
eminent against the shipping Of arms
and ammunition from the United
States to the rebels, and has request
ed that greater vigilance be exercised
in guarding the frontier. Mexican Of
fcials understand that numerous con-
signments Of war material, including
many machine guns, have been sent
across the border. in some cases even
at the regular ports of entry. and are
now in the hands of the rebels.
II is pointed out by the same Off
Cials that since the rebels control a
large part of the frontier, this coun-
try is dependent absolutely for the
time being on the United States to
prevent the rebels from obtaining
supplies. That the rebels are secur-
ing quantities of ammunition appears
to be a fact.
No notable improvement in the rev.
dictionary situation is apparent. The
greater successes in recent days are
credited to the rebels, although Sc
were punishment in minor engage
ments had been inflicted on the ad-
hereuts Of Venustiano Carranza, near
Monterey.
Residents Of the capital are nervous
because Of continued rumOrs Of friC-
ton between President Huerta and
General Felix Diaz, and Of plots and
intrigues. even to the fixing of dates
when a new battle may be expected
in the streets, or the assassination of
one or the other of the principals on
Saturday so keen was the excitement
that the President summoned news
paper men to the palace after mid
night 10 issue a formal statement
saying he and Felix Diaz were still
friends and WORKING I'm harmony, and
that there was no truth in the street
gossip.
Huerta's statement was reiterated
by Diaz.

FEDERAL TROOPS READY
TO MARCH INTO CONVICTION

CINCINNATI OHIO, March 30
Two companies of the Ninth United
States Infantry stationed at Fort
Thomas. KY. are being held IN readl-
ness to march at an instants notice
TO Covington, KY, where Mayor Geo
$. Phillips fears the city may be in
need of military protection due TO
high water that virtually is surround
ing the town. When the river stage
reached more than S. feet to-day the
lighting plants, electric and gas, were
put oat of commission and the city is
in darkness.
The soldiers were issued marching
orders at the request of Mayor Phli-
lips to the War Department at WASH
ington that the troops be sent to ms
city. At the same time the Mayor
teIegraphed a request to Governor
McCrearyit that he declare martial law.
The request for United States troops
was referred TO Secretary Of War Gar
rison and Major General Wood, who
to-day returned from an inspection
tour Of the flooded district in Ohio.
Later a conference was held at
which Police Chief Henry Schuler
pointed out that as yet the local au-
thoritiea were in a position to cope
with the situation, but it was decided
that should developments warrant the
city will avail itself OF the nearness OF
the Federal soldiery 20 patrol the city
No disorders have yet occurred, bul
It is feared by the Mayor that with
the city in almost total darkness
hooters viii begin their work. Mayor
Phillips also has ordered that all @ti-
zens remain off the streets after
nightfall under penalty of being ar
rested and lodged in jail.
The property loss in the Cincinnau
water front section will be very large.
IT is estimated by competent autnon-
ties that the loss TO valuable stocks or
merchandise will reach nearly $4,000
600. This does not take into account
the damage 10 many of the oldec
buildings where the foundations have
been undermined by the rapid cur
rent This will be great, in the opln-
ion of experts who have made an eN-
animation of the district and are Ia
