ROME, July 12.-(New York World Cable
gramSpecial Telegram.) Pope Leo'a won
derful vitality haa again asserted ltaelf and.
although hla doctors decline to Issue op
timistic prophecies, they now say hla life
may be prolonged for fifteen days.
Friday's operation relieved his holiness
considerably and all . day yesterday his
condition Improved. Early this morning he
was no worse. If no better, but aa he haa
been oieeplng since 11 last night no careful
examination Is possible. The chief anxiety
now Is that his heart may give out, al
though the derangement ot his kidneys Is
also discouraging.
During yesterday he received three car
dinals representing the cardinal bishops,
the cardinal priests and the cardinal
deacons. '
Bulletin la Reassuring.
Only one bulletin waa Issued yesterday,.
the following being given to the publlo at
m. It Is understood, however, that
this correctly describes his condition up
to midnight:
During the night his holiness rested at
Intervals. His pulse Is 90 and haa shown
no diversity since last night In strength
and resistance. His respiration Is 80 and ,
his temperature 36 centigrade. Functions
of the kidneys are still deficient. Hl
general condition, however, la fairly easy.
MAZZONI.
Contrary to his usual custom the pope
did not get up In the morning, aa his doc
tors considered absolute rest best for him.
About 1 he lunched lightly on sweetbreads,
chicken, Jelly and a glass of wine and soon
after slept peacefully for nearly four hours.
Plo Centra, the pope's valet, got a few
hours sleep last night, the first In a long ,
time. Subsequently he told the World cor
respondent that the pope's life waa gently,
but surely ebbing away, although his Intel-'
lect remained untouched. It waa pitiful,
he said, to watch his master In his efforts'
to attend to his daily occupations, while
struggling against the mortal weakness.
The pope talks little of religion since he
received the last communion. He appears
serenely - secure, often repeating Marcus ' '
Aurellus' farewell to the soul. j
Views of Attendant.
Camariere Btelvtnl, one of the private at
tendants In the pope's bedroom, who has
been employed at the Vatican all his life,
and la in minor orders gave an Impressive
account this morning of the scenes In the
papal sick room.
"It Is not a death bed," he said; "It Is a
gradual ascension Into heaven of a man of
supreme spiritual Idea. The soul and the
intellect remain, but the body has ceased
its functions. It haa perished, but the
mind burns still like a bright light
"For the first few days It waa a sight
awful in Its solemnity, not pathetlo or sor
rowful, but almost supernatural to see the
frail, ethereal figure of Christ's vicar, aa
the will occasionally asserted Itself over
the feeble body, moving around the room
clothed In white, walking, as it were, hand
in hand with death."
The reas. uring medical bulletins are gen
erally understood to be mere medical Jug
glery, for while the secretaries report hts
holiness as Improving none of his dootors
even pretend to anticipate any hope of final
recovery. Still, though science may be un
able to save Pope Leo, -It hi at leaat
afforded him practically a painless decay.
The tremendous superiority of the pon
tiff's mind over his frail frame oan be
Judged from his actions yesterday regard
ing Monsignor Volpini. Tired of the ex.
cuses made by those trying to conceal the
fact of Monsignor Volplnl's death, Pope
Io exclaimed: "Then we must appoint a
coadjutor," and thereupon solemnly de-'
clared that Monsignor Marlnl should act
as assistant to the man who was buried on
Friday.
The grim oddity of the situation waa .
heightened by the coincidence that Mon
signor Marlnl was coadjutor to the secre.
tary of the ronslstorial congregation when
Pope Plus IX died. He la now a substi
tute at the congregation of briefs. This in
dication of the pope's wish I likely to se
cure for Monsignor Marlnl the place made
vacant by the sudden death of Monsignor
Volplnl.
Sick for a Week.
Yesterday brought to a close a full week
since Pope Leo waa stricken with Illness
and It found him still battling against
death.
Friday night he enjoyed considerable
periods of repose. Dr. Laponnl remained
near the sick room throughout the night,
but there waa little occasslon for his
service. When Dr. Mazzonl Joined him In
th j sick chamber at 8:S0 yesterday morn
ing iney rouna tneir patient had not
Buffeted any serious Indisposition during
the night, although the same terrible weak
ness was still manifest.
The usual bulletin wss Issued at o'clock
and It showed that the conditions In the
sick room were practically unchanged,
pulse, respiration and temperature being
almost Identical with those maintained
Friday. The most cheering feature of
the bulletin waa the lilt nee concerning any
Immediate aggravation of pleuritic conditions.
Anslous Crowds Gather.
Within the colonade fronting St. Peter's
there continued the same gathering of
anxioui crowda, with ateady lines of
cardinals and distinguished members of the
diplomatic corps proceeding to the Inner
court cf the Vatican to learn the result
of the "doctors" conference.
Even before daylight groups gathered at
the entrace seeking the latest Information
The weather conditions here are Ideal and
contribute greatly to th comfort of the
patient. Usually, Rome reeks In midsummer
with the fierce heat of the sun and ex
halation from the surrounding marshes,
but now the elements are lending every
encouragement to the recovery of the
lilustrous patient. The sun shires frem a
cloudless sky end the heat ia tempered
by 1 almy west breeiea. The temperature
