CHICAGO, April 9.-Prominent Chit
cago social workers, who are active
in the work of organizing the thirteen
thousand girls and women employed in
State street department stores, today
issued warnings to the girls that they
must not cease their efforts to form
a union because the big merchants
are discussing plans for a million dol
lar working girls home.
You have been reading about the
million dollar hotel the employers are
going to give you" said Mrs. Mary
Anderson, organizer for the womens'
trade union league Remember that
this hotel is far in the future. The
merchants have said that they pre-
ferred to employ girls living at home
because they would work for less" "
The suggestion that the big en-
ployers finance the construction Of a
hotel where department store girls
might obtain room and board at a
low cost, was considered when the
State street merchants and the Illinois
senate white slave commission met
behind closed doors Monday
Several girl clerks who attended an
organization meeting addressed by
Mrs. Medill Mccormick. Miss Mary
Mcdowell, Mrs. John T. Bowen and
other prominent Chicago women last
night declared that they We're threat
ened with the loss of their position If
they had anything to do with the girls
organization. Miss Mcdowell an
nounced that the women's trade union
league would care for any girls who
were discharged
Without organization you will not
be able to accomplish anything said
Mrs. Bowen. An arbitration board
can get things. Push your organiza-
tion and you will win respect for your
cause"

ROME, April 9.-Four thousand
Catholic pilgrims from all over the
Christian world, here for the first
of the celebrations commemorating
Constantine year, today knelt in st.
Peters cathedral and prayed long and
earnestly that the life of Pope Plus x
may be spared.
With temperature normal and his
fever entirely gone the pope's heart
action was decidedly weaker today
and Dr. Marchiafava and DR.. Amici,
papel physicians. admitted that his
condition was most grave, though
they refused to say they were alarm
ed. Marchiafaya said that what his
holiness most needed was absolute

Many pilgrims had been expecting
to be received in audience by the
pope today and when they. were in

audiences were postponed indefinitely
they Immediately prepared the prayer
for the holy fathers recovery.
Pope Plus passed a fairly restful
night. Dr. Marchifaya and DR.. Amici
made frequent visits 10 the vatican
through the night and at midnight
said the pontiff's temperature was
slightly above 100. This occasioned
no especial alarm and did not prevent
the patient from. getting considerable

On the Doctors first visit today
they found the pope's fever entirely al
layed, but the heart action vas more
depressed than last night, and it is
this. symptom that gives the most
alarm.
The only official statement regard
ing the pope's condition issued from
the vatican by Cardinal Merry Del Val
was:
The pope is suffering relapse OF
the influenza"
The statement OF Osseryatere Ro
mano, the official vatican organ, was
little more satisfactory? 1t said:
Since yesterday evening the holy
father has been indisposed with a
relapse Of the influenza. His condi
ton is causing no anxiety, but he
requires more rest"
1t was learned from most reliable
sources. though, that Pope Plus is suf
fering from something more than in,
fluenza. Besides the weakened heart
condition, the pontiff is said to have
nephrftis, an affection of the kidneys
akin to Bright's disease
Despite the assurances of the papal
physicians and Cardinal Merry Del
Val, the relapse of the pope causes
the greatest uneasiness throughout
