CONDITION SATISFIES PHYSICIANS Difficulty Found In Building Up Sys tem Because of Patient's Re fusal To EatFever Haa Abated. ROME. Aug. 11. Although the Pope suffers less pain today and his fever baa diminished somewhat, the Improvement In hla condition waa net as great aa had been hoped for. He hut had a rather rtfatlesa night. the burning sensation In bis knee awakening him. However, the phy- alclana are now so well satisfied with his condition that tbey predict his recovery within ten days. Dr. Petaccl and Profeaaor Marchia- fava arrived at the Vatican at 6:30 a. m., and remained with the Pontiff until 8:10 o'clock. They received a detailed report from Dr. Amlccl, who had been In the chamber throughout the night. The other physicians made a thorough examination of Hla Holi ness, and aemed satisfied that be had not failed during the night. After 1 a. m.t when he fell aaleep. the Pope had the beat rest that he haa had for several nights. Tne breathing waa more nearly normal than at any time since the illness be gan. In the early hours of the day, the temperature dropped many de grees. Those In attendance find difficulty In building up the atrengtb of the Pontiff because of bis distaste for food. The Pontiff was undoubtedly relieved' of hla paina during the day, but hla organism seemed unable to combat the 'general weaknqpa. For thla reason, although the Pope waa able to sit up thla morning, he soon afterward returned to hid bed. Later he again expressed a wish to try the armchair and waa permitted to sit up. He aald that the change from bed to chair and from chair to bed soothed and refreshed him, and made hia pains more bearable. In addition to the physicians and his alstera, the Pope thla morning aaw Cardinal Merry del VaJ, Papal Secretary of State, and Monslgno Bisleti. major-domo of the Vatican. They found Hla Hollneaa more cheer ful and la a Jocular frame of mind. He commented with amuement on some of the atoriea circulated about his condition, aaylng, "I Intend to et well In apite of them."

Harry Smith, who was arrested at Marshfield. Or, on a charge of stealing a horse, buggy and harness at Roseburg told a story to the sheriff and others which Indicates that he knows who committed the Hill murder. He aaya that a friend of hia killed the Hill family. A notebook found tn the pocket of the prisoner leads the Mirshfteld officials to the belief that their - prisoner Is named Higgs Instead of Smith. The notebook, which the Marshfield police think contains valuable detail, haa been forwarded to Sherif Mass. Smith, after being arrested appeared to be greatly worried.

AND PRES ENT WIFE PLAN SUIT FOR SLANDER CHILDREN AC CUSED OF PLOTTING TO EXHUME BODY. Alleging that their mother waa poisoned while being attended by a trained nurse, who Is now their stepmother, the children of John T. Frlel, owner of a large ranch at Cherryvllle, and one of the beat known men In Clackamas coun ty, are preparing to have the body exhumed for examination early next week. Determined to thwart them In their purpose, the aged "man Is keeping vigil nightly over the grave, with hla beautiful young wife anx iously awaiting bis return each morn ing at their home not far away. The news of the sensational charges and the alleged secret plans to have the body exhumed, with the determined husband and father standing guard, haa stirred the residents of this city and county as seldom before, and the wildest conjectures as to the facta In the case are being made. That the courts will be called up on for a solution became evident -when Mr. and Mra. Frlel came to Oregon City, and engaged George C. Brownell and William M. Stone to file suit for alleged slander againat the children of the former. It la also probable that tbey will make application for a reatraining order against the children having the body exhumed unless it Is done by county fftcUla, Mr. and Mra. -Frlel. the aged man almost exhausted from worry and the strain of hla long watchea. said that they had no ob jection to the body being examined, but they wanted it taken from the grave and protected by the coroner to prevent the injection of poison by alleged plotters against them. Mr. Brownell said Friday that the papers tn the proposed suit for slander were being prepared. Beautiful Nurse Employed. When the former-Mrs. Frlel waa stricken early In February this year an advertisement for a trained nurse was inserted in a Portland paper, which waa' answered by Miss Luella Wilson, a handsome woman of about " thirty years of age. When aha went to the Frlel home ahe said that ahe originally lived In Buffalo, N. Y., ac cording to the children of Mr. Frlel. She did not aay that ahe had been connected with any Portland hospi tal. Neighbora aay that she was an excellent nurse and did everything possible for Mrs. Frlel. Mr. Frlel de clares that when his . wife realized she could not recover ahe called him to her bedside and begged him to marry Miss Wilson. Mrs. Frlel died on February 13, and about two and a half months later Mr. Frlel and his former wife's nurse were married. He says that there had been no objection by hla chil dren to the wedding, and It waa some time before the charges that Mrs. Frlel had been poisoned were made. When he heard of the plana to have the body exhumed he made serious objection unless It was to be done by the coroner, but his children Insist ed that it must be done at once. Cor oner Wilson was consulted by Mr. Frlel, but the official said the exam-., tnatioo could not be made at the county's expense. County Judge Bea tle also gave him the same Informa tion. Mr. Frlel asserts that his children continued their threats to have the body secretly removed from the grave, and finally he and his bride determined to Invoke the courts for assistance. They aay the trouble haa resulted from hia children imag ining that he intends to make a will leaving virtually all his property to his present wife. Sheriff Asked For Aid. The news that the aged man was guarding the grave of his former wife was revealed by him In a letter to Sheriff Mass received Friday. The sheriff declined to give the let ter out for publication, but In part. It is as follows: "I have been Informed that seme parties are going to take up the body of Mr. Frlel, who died February 13, 1911. and waa burled in Cherryvllle cemetery. "They are going to get some party outside of the county, and tt Is to be done aomeilme this week, and at night And not let me know any thing about 1L They claim there has . been foul play. I am guarding the grave every night, which I can't atand much longer. "Now we are willing to have the body exhumed, but we want tt done In a. lawful manner, and done in the day time, by the proper persona. We fear the way athey are going at It: that they are up to foul play." . . In the letter Mr. Frlel cautioned the sheriff to address mall to blm care of the 8andy Poatofflce. He said If aent to him at Cherryvllle be feared the mall would not reach him. His eon, John T. Friel, Jr., It poet master at Cherryvllle. He waa re cently fined $.16 on an alleged charge of attacking a neighbor. (Continued on Page J.) " av7rii i u a v in,
