Predicts There Will be
Immediate Competi-
tion in Sugar.
BUSINESS NOT INJURED
President Believes Bin. as
Drafted, Is Generally Ap-
proved by People.

Washington, D. c., April 14.-Presi
dent Wilson believes the tariff bill
meets the general approval of the
country; that no healthy business will
be interrupted and that, while in most
cases, the cost of living will not be
Immediately reduced, the consumer
will feel at once the benefit of a re-
duction Of the sugar duty. These
views were expressed by the presi-
dent in an open talk to newspaper
men at the White house today. He
explained his main reason for desir-
ing a reduction on sugar was that
the consumers deserved it.
The president declared that arrange
ments by which prices were fixed
would surely be made impossible when
a truly competitive situation was
created, and that the public would get
the benefit very promptly in the case
Of sugar, as he knew competitive ele-
merts were ready to contest.
UNDERWOOD TAKEN ILL.
Chairman Underwood OF the ways
and means committee was ordered to
bed today by his physicians, who

did not interfere with the house eau
Gus, which will work on.

RELIEVED BY COUGHING
While Fever Has Almost En-

SiCianS Are Worried.

Rome. April 1.-THE pope's temper
ature decreased at o'clock today to
9S degrees. The disappearance of fe-
yer is interpreted as a sign there is
no more fear of pneumonia.
Professor Marchiafava, on leaving
the pope's apartment after examining
him, said:
81 now trust the pOpe's illness will
have a favorable solution, if it's pos
sihle to induce the patient to take
proper care of himself"
\ bulletin issued by the papal ply
siCians early today said:
His holiness passed a tranquil
night. Bronchial symptoms are reas-
suring His temperature is 80. His
general condition is good"
His improvement is considered most
encouraging. Last night was the sev-
en,h since the first relapse suffered by
the pope, and gravest anxiety han been
caused by his increasing weakness and
malnutrition.
II now appears that excessive cough
ing suffered last night greatly relieved
the pontiff and enabled him to obtain
long. restful sleep. During the night
his temperature gradually decreased
until it went down to 9S
Although the pope rested quietly
this forenoon his physicians we're
somewhat concerned about his increas-
ing weakness. The pontiff took little no
tice of those around him. For the

I ----aiID-DAY- -SLEEP------
! In the middle of the day the pope
/ had a short sleep, almost uninterrupt-
| ed by coughing.
! DR. Amici visited the pope twice af-
ter the departure Of Marchiafava this
morning. Amici considered his Condi-
popes illness with outward tranquil
ity. The widespread conviction is that
if death is approaching it will not come
for some days at least Churches are
not unusually crowded. Ordinary tour
lists are still allowed to visit the gal
ler.es at the vatican. Carriages drive
I'D frequently conveying cardinals. am
bassadors and high prelates TO inquire
Of the pope's condition and read the
latest bulletins. The physicians have
become clever in eluding would-be in,
reviewers. They enter sometimes
one door and sometimes another. and
there is an infinite number to choose
from. II they happen to be caught they
are utterly noncommittal.
ALL BUSINESS GOES ON.
Inside the vatican all is tranquil and
business seems to be transacted as
usual This is in marked contrast tc
when Leo XIII was on his sick bed
when everything was at a standstil
and great confusion existed, even be
fore his death. Arrangements for {
conclave of cardinals are being pushed
forward. It is said in Rome that if any
conclusion is to be drawn from present
quietness, it must be that those around
the pope do not expect him to die Per
sistent cold weather augments the diff
ficulty in treating the pope satisfac
torily.
TO ESCAPE PNEU MONA.
At $40 it was stated the condition
of the pope remained stationary dur
ing the afternoon. His temperatur,
had not risen, which was considered
certain proof there was no trace o
pneumonia, also of the certainty of tn,
pope's recovery unless there are com
phcations.

CHINA WANTS LOAN
0F MANY MILLIONS
Nations Agent Mould Have Ask
in America, But VIII
sons Attitude Scared Him.

LONDON, May A.-George Bronson
Rea. secretary of the Chinese National
Railway Corporation. Is in London with
the power of attorney of DIR. Sun Yatsen
to borrow 500 10000 for the purpose OF
building 1000 miles Of railway within
the next fifteen years. DIR. Sun wanted
$1,000 miles built. but Mr.. Rea cut his
estimate TO 10000. Mr.. Rea has UNDER
taken to get the money without utilizing
the financial groups so cordially dis
liked by the Chinese parliament
Discussing the questions involved. Mr..
Rea said:
"Our first thought was of raising
money In America I knew that the
American group headed by the Morgan
firm could easily handle 1t. of course
taking In the other powers after the
loan was started. but we had to be
in a position to eliminate the phases
Of the former loan contract So unwel-
come to the Chinese.
My desire was to have America sup
ply $5. 100000 in ten years and have
the other powers take the remainder,
but all our plans fell through when it
was found that President Wilson had
withdrawn governmental support from
-the american banking group. and I had
to come to England. as Americans
won't enter China unless supported by
their Government.
1T seems to me that sooner or later
President Wilson will be compelled to
modify his policy. because with the new
tariff all conditions in America will be
changed. The country must find an
export market. and China Is the richest
field the world now offers. Political
conditions in China make 1t imprac-
without Government support, while.
aside from the Morgan group. there Is
no other in the United States strong
enough to float the loan Independently.
