1 ROME, July 26-BuIlctin
--Pope Leo XII is' dead.
. ROME, July-18. Deprived of ;rest, the
Pope spent the day which has just end
ed, with, serious depression. .The doc
tors reported a feeble, but rapid pulse,
which, was generally taken to 'Indicate
the playing out of the patient's'forces.
The favorable symptoms recorded, in
the morning of the lowering of the
pleuratic liquid was sufficiently main
tained to relieve the Pontiff of his
painful struggles for breath, which
lately have .been sO frequent, i -r ,-
The. doctors teat tnef gradual sinking
is da to gWMrsi oonditloag rather
than to the necessity for another oper
ation, which seemed so imminent on
Thursday. '" ' v '-;
His sleepless night was succeeded by
a day during which the Pope seemed to
lack any desire to vary the) medical
routine by" receiving visits from Car
dinals or others. Both - morning and
afternoon he remained Isolated from all
save the doctors and attendants.
The nourishment which the Pontiff
took at first somewhat encouraged his
entourage, but the condition of the patient-this
evening pointed to the fact
that it had had no beneficial I effec.
What is now most hoped for Is that
the Pope may be enabled, to secure
some much needed rest.
' . It Is 'Cancer of P'sura. '
Paris, July 18 A dispatch to th'e
Petit Journal from Rome says the Pope
is not suffering from pleurisy, but from
cancer ef the pleura, and that Dr Ros
sini openly declared this at the Acade
my of Medicine and at the clinics which
he attends daily. ' ' ;
