POPE BENEDICT
 TRIES F0R PEACE
Has Personally Written to the Ru1ers of the Belligerent Nations
 Pleading for Pace.

ROME, March 7.-Pope Benedict Is again pleading with the rulers Of the belligerent nations of Europe to end the war which Is devastating tho European countries, and costing mil- lions of lives. He has personally pre- pared the letters which will be dis patched by special messengers to al1 the rulers whose countries are en- gagged in the struggle. His Holiness is appealing to the rules to sacrifice their pride If necessary in the inter- ests of humanity and civilization.
 But little hope is entertained that favorable results will be secured from the appeals as heretofore all efforts of outside agencies to end the war have been fruitless. It is understood that the Pope has requested that each of the belligerent nations appoint dip lomats to meet in Switzerland with representatives of the neutral na- tions.
