Atlanta time).—An official bulletin issued at this hour states that the Pope spent the day calmly. He suffered from a slight cough, but the bronchial symptoms were better. His temperature at this hour is 98.4. ROME, April 17.—The Pope was able to sit up for a short period this afternoon in an armchair. Discussing the Pope’s condition with the Spanish Ambassa dor, Cardinal Merry Del Val expressed fear that even though the Pope should recover from the present immediate danger of deatli his health would be so badly impaired that he would not be able in the future to administer the affairs of hte church. He said the Papal Court feels genuine alarm over the condition of the Pope. "One of the causes for anxiety is the advanced age of the Pontiff, his years having weakened the vital organs in their functions. There have been incipient symptoms of uraemia, also. “His Holiness Pope Pius X is better, but is still extremely weak.” This statement was made this afternoon by Monsignor Porilin. nephew of the Pope, who has watched by the Pontiff for sev eral days. AlonaigBor Rarilin had jusi .ome from the Pontiff's bedside when he made this announcement. Clinging to the slender thread of life with a tenacity which has aroused the amazement and admiration of his physicians, Pope Piux X lies close to the shadow of death, but still fight ing valiontly. After a consultation between Drs. Marchiafava and Amici, the following signed bulletin was Issued early to day from the sick chamber. His Holiness Pope Pius X passed the night calmly. He was disturbed occasionally by the tits of coughing, but his bronchial symptoms are better. His tem perature was 97.8. It was observed that this bulletin, unlike most of the others which have preceded It. did not say that the Pope's general condition is good. 1 ie Pontiff was very restless during the night and between fits of coughing tossed in his bed. The heart action was sustained by injections. Medicines administered internally have disarranged the Pope's stoma h and he was seized with a fit of nau sea after ills breakfast, which con sisted of weak chicken broth and a thin slice of dry toast. Soothed by Chapel Organ. ■ One of the attending physicians to- ' day said: "The condition of the Pon tiff is so desperate that I do not think he will live to see Friday dawn." The Italian Government has been notified formally of the critical pltgh. of the Pontiff and Intimation was given that death could be expected at • -any moment. Premier Gilotti, who has been in Turin on a vacation, came to Rome to-day, cutting his stay short. De- fore the Premier left for Turin Dr. Marchiafava had promised to let him know in ample time to reach Rome if the Pope neared the threshold of death. Thus to the return »f Signor Gtlloti deep significance is attached. Although 88 years old and a val etudinarian, Cardinal Oreglia, dean of the sacred college, bore up agains' age and feebleness and spent the night in his robes awaiting a sum mons from the Vatican. It Is toe office of the dean of the sacred college to serve as head of the church gov ernment in the interregnum between the two Popes. Cardinal Merry Del Val. Papal Sec retary of State, has wired the papal nuncios at the capitals of various countries to Inform the foreign Car dinals that a conclave is imminent. The Pope's sisters, Anna and Maria Sarto: his brother, Angelo Sarto, and his nephew, Monsignor Porilin, spent the night at the Vatican, as did Dr. Amid. .» “Another Blessed Day.

LONDON, April 17.—Chancellor David Lloyd-George announced in the House of Commons this afternoon that the Government had set aside May 5 and May 6 for debate upon the wom en's enfranchisement bill. This announcement was tantamount to the declaration hat a bill grunting suffrage to women will be introduced at once and it is regarded as a vic tory for militant suffragettes. Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON, April 17.—The Memphis, Tenn., end has become strangely pre dominant in the mystery surrounding the disappearance of Joseph W. Mar tin. the wealthy American, missing since April 3. Detective William .1. Burns declared to-day he believed he would be able to close up the case after he receives certain information from Memphis, believed to relate to the financial sta tus of the missing man and his cotton brokerage firm. Rumors which would remove the mystery and tragedy of the case were circulated to-day. These concerned the alleged forgery of cotton ware house certificates held by the Martin firm. Burns’ Men Still Searching. Burns has promised to produce Martin by midnight. His men still are searching the Lambeth district where Martin's silk hat. watch chain and pocketbook were found. Meanwhile Scotland Yard is keep ing up the quest. If the missing American does no: turn up in a few days Scotland Yard will make ap plication to the court to open Mr. Martin’s strong box here to see if his papers will throw any light upon his absence. Cotton Shortage Charged. According to dispatches from Mem phis yesterday, relative to the failure of the Martin Phillips Company, the assets of the company reported to the Federal Court included 1.800 bales of cotton, stored in a warehouse, on which loans had been secured. There are not more than 94 bales now in the warehouse, according to the owner, who also asserts that, while he had signed receipts for 900 bales, most of it had been removed I without his knowledge. Tells of $6,000,000 Deal. NEW YORK, April 17.—A $6,000.- 000 transaction, the details of which remain strangely un xplained, is at the bottom of the mysterious disap pearance in London, on April 3, of Joseph Wllberforce Martin, the Mem phis millionaire, according to N. Hill Martin, his brother, who sailed for England on the Campania after spending the day at the Waldorf-As toria. He declared that his brother on April 3 sent the family a cable mes sage saving that lie had that day closed a deal Involving the sale of 60,000 acres of cotton land in Ar kansas and Tennessee, valued at more than $100 an acre, to an Eng lish syndicate. Deal Made Through Agents. It was understood that the deal was made through his agents, Bou- sted & Anderson, a London broking and banking firm “That night," lie said, "Joe disap peared." Then he told how J. Lockhart An derson, a member of the banking firm, had been the family's only- source of information since his broth er's disappearance, but declared An derson had sent them absolutely no word concerning the several millions which Hill Martin believes must have changed hands to close the land sale. "Joe was no ‘rube,’" Mr. Martin declared hotly. "This puts Anderson in an awful hole. When I get to London he will have to do business with me in a hurry." Visited in Martin Home. Anderson, he said, came to the United States last December to look over the cotton lands in the inter ests of the English syndicate, and was a visitor at the Martin home in Memphis for several weeks. “He cabled us all the events which led up to Joe's disappearance,” Mr Martin said, "but has avoided all men tion of the money my brother Is sup posed to have received for his lands.” Mr. Martin declared that he be- lieved there was a woman's face back of the plpt.
