Rome. April 14.-All indications
point to the utmost gravity of the
Pope's condition. At midnight the fe-
yer and cough we're giving cause for
great alarm. The impression had
gained ground that the tracheal bron-
chitis had developed into pneumonia
While not absolutely denying this,
Professor Marchiafave said:
eat tho present time 1t could not
properly be called pneumonia; but
with tracheal bronchitis sometimes
the lungs do not function properly
Probably the rcsistent and robust IL
Bre of the holy father may overcome
this danger. Meanwhile we can mako
the statement. which must give rise to
great hope. that the condition Of albu-
minuria has disappeared"
In the two bulletins issued, one in
the morning and one In the evening,
the Pope's condition was set forth as
hopeful. but 1t has boen learned that
the bulletins, as prepared by the At
tending physicians, have come under
tue censorship Ol Tue pApdI secretary
of state. The explanation is given
that Doctors Marchiafava and Amici
embody in their bulletins all the de-
tails with reference to pulse and res
piration, In addition to other patholog-
ical conditions. The bulletins are SUBJ
mitted to Cardinal Merry del Val, and
when they reach the public they lack
what the papal secretary considers
unnecessary and undesirable for pub
licity.
After midnight there was an in
crease in the temperature OF the pa
tient and the fact that large quan
tity OF disinfectants had been brought
into the sick apartment was consid-
cred as an indication that the bron-
chitis had developed into pneumonia. \.
The monk. Wives y Tuto. brother OF
the cardinal, who has been for some
time the fconfessor Of the Pope. en-
tered his room and remained there for
forty-five minutes. 1t il supposed that
he confessed the pontiff. :.

stantial increases.
The House does not approve the
proposition put up by the Senate to
slash salaries. 1t is admitted by the
appropriations committee OF the
House that number of clerks in
various offices could be dismissed.
but the policy of cutting their salaries
does not appeal to the majority of the
House members. Judging from the
general expression Of opinion.
In the long appropriation bill $780,
900 is appropriated for the expenses
Of the Nineteenth General Assemly;
the free employment bureau is given
$500 additional. the factory inspec-
tion. $1,000; pure food department.

tai fund Of the speaker of the Nine
teenth General Assembly. $500.
Speaker Skinner moved to vote

incidental expenses. and by an al.
most unanimous vote the money was
appropriated for the use Of Speaker
