Plus Has High Fever and Poor
Heart Action.
DOCTORS STILL HAVE HOPE
Two Sisters at Bedside Great Portion
Of Tlme-Crowds Wait in Rain
Outside Vatican for News
From, Sick Chamber.

Rome, April 11--An official state
ment issued at the Vatican on We'd
nesday said the pope's temperature
had risen to 101.30. but added that he
was resting in satisfactory manner.
Earlier bulletins said that his condi-
ton is not grave and that there is no
immediate danger.
Professor Marchiafava, one of the
attending physicians, admitted that
the pope was suffering from infiam-
nation of the kidneys, complicated
with dropsy Of cardiac origin. The ply
stefan said the condition of the pope's
heart was such that he is in need of
constant stimulation. His general
weakness is also a cause for anxiety.
The patients weakness is being treat
ed by the regular administration of
nourishment contributes to the depres.
sion from which the pope suffers.
The relapse is following the same
course as the original attack of inf1u-
enza. cough being present, with irri-
tation of the bronchial tubes and diff
Guilty in respiration, which has led to
the report in some cases that the pope
is afflicted with asthma. This, however,
is erroneous.
The condition of albuminuria which
usually accompanies influenza is pres
ent, indicating an inflammation of the
kidneys of greater or lesser degree,
but it is hoped that this is Of tran
STORY character.
Professor Marchiafava visited the
pope only twice Wednesday, morning
and evening, and expressed satisfac-
ton at the course the illness was TAX
ing at the time.
Professor Marchiafava in a state
ment expressed himself as highly In
dignant at the exaggerated reports
emn assurances that the popes illness
was running perfectly normal course.
and said that If no complications arose
he would guarantee that the pontifT
would be convalescent within week.
The popes sisters and niece spend
much time at the beside, and when not
there they were kept constantly in
formed by telephone as to the prog
ress of events.
The pope has expressed terror at
what the newspapers are capable of
inventing concerning his relapse. He
Is being watched in turn by his valet
and his secretaries, Mgrs. Bressan and
Pascini, and the chemist monk, Pros
docimo, is also In close attendance
The aspect of the immense square In
front of st. Peters recalled the scenes

but instead of a burning July sun, as
In 1903, there was downpour OF rain.
This did not prevent thousands of
pilgrims from gathering and gazing
with grave anxiety at the three win
dows of the room on the third door OF
the apostolic palace. where the pope
lies, or from directing sympathetic
glances at the little house In the
square below where the sisters OF the
pope occupy modest apartment
