NO HOPELEFT
FOR RECOVERY
OF CARDINAL
Baltimore Prelate Suffered
Relapse Sunday After
Breakdown. +.

: Baltimore, Nd, March 23.-Car-
o1nal Gibbons, who suffered a relapse
last Sunday. was reported in a critical
condition today.
He Is conscious only part of the
time and virtually. all hope for his
recovery has been abandoned.
His heart action was said to be
weak and his temperature low. Since
his return in January to the Archepis-
copal residence from the home Of
friends at Union Mills, Nd. where he
became seriously i'll last December,
the cardinals condition apparently
had continued to improve. He was
able to take automobile rides almost
daily and also was able to walk about
his home.
1t was in December that the prelate
suffered breakdown due to his un-
remitting devotion to his diocesan
duties In spite of his sc years. Evil
dence that the strain was beginning
to tell on him was given as nearly as
November Z. when he was seized with
a momentary faintness while deliver
ing sermon at Havre de Grace.
The change for the worse in Car
dinal Gibbons condition occurred
last Sunday night. but announcement
of the fact was withheld in the hope
that the bad turn world prove to be
only temporary. His condition be-
came grave and it was decided to let
his friends know the unfavorable
state of affairs.
No attempt was made to minimize
the gravity of the cardinals case by
members of his household or his
physician. The latter said the prel-
ate's condition was very serious and
that he would have to be watched
constantly. He is unconscious part
Of the time. The doctor attributed
the change to the unusually warm
weather Of last Sunday =
