~ HOTTEST ONY KILLS EIGHT; SCORES ARE PROSTAATED ‘Every Hospital Busy Attending to Heat Cases—Trains and Trolleys Crowded with Suffering New Yorkers Fleeing ' PRICE ONE CENT. NEW YORK, THUR —— 7 Y 9, 1903. SDAY, J to Shore, Resorts WEATHER FORECAST. Forecast the thirty-six hours ending at 5 P. M.

Wvery hospital in the city 1s equipped ‘to take oare of the emergency heat ‘eases that are certain to pour in on ‘them during the day. ‘Phere can be no denying that summer thas fairly wrappei the city in its warm embrace and the city, on its part, Is doing all it can to counteract and ea- eape the ardent attention. Residents are ficeing to seashore and \mountain droves. In the past few days the business of tramsportation com- panies hae received an enormous im- petus, The railroad stations and ferry- houses are dally crowded with throngs ‘eager to hie themselves to the shade of tha country or the sands of the beach. ‘Tho scene at the Grand Central Depot to-day was suggestive of a general exodus. Thousands of men, women and children hurried through the gates ‘amd looked confusedly about them for the right train. She Was a Genius. One woman, with a feather in her hat which curled over tae front and kept poking her in the eye, went in and out of three gates before she finally steered through the right one. She had a per- fect genius for misunderstanding what was said to ner. When the guard told her the train she should take was on! track 6 she instantly made a bee-line for track 8 With her in these mis- guided flights she dragged @ small boy, who clung tenaciously to a sticky and rapidly dissembling slab of crackerjack. ‘Phe child was silently submissive until this mother, in her rollicking game of “orack-the-whip,” finally slammed dim up against a buffer. It was diMcult to determine whether the boy or the erackerjack suffered the more. ‘The molasses-soaked popcorn was mangled out of all semblan its original form, and the boy struck the obstruction in auch manner as to rip all the buttons off hls waist and skin his knee, For a moment he was calm—omin- ously calm, Then the storm broke.

"Wow!" screamed Freddie. ‘Then mamma resorted to heroic meas- ures. Taking firm hold of her squirm- ing offspring she gave him a yank that landed him high and dry on the train ateps.

BRIGHTON BEACH RACE TRACK, July %—The Sea Gate Stakes was the only feature at Brighton this afternoon, There were elght starters originally carded; but only four elected to go. Proper carried W. B. Jennings's colors, going to the post a warm choice. James R. Keene's Rigodon was the second chotoe, Both horses opened at 7 to 5 and the talent made a bad pick, for Rigodon ‘beat out the favorite in a hard drive, Gannon's cleverness really won the race, He was outrun with Riigodon in the early part and Gannon took jim in be- thind the other three, who raced head and head, Going down the backstretch Gannon watched his opoprtunity and sneaked Rigodon through on the rail, saving a lot of ground. As Rigodon only won by @ head the ground saved ‘by his clever move won the race. Shotgun, the hottest favorite of the afternoon, was beaten by Counterpolse, @ 16 to 1 chance, but as soon as Shot- gun pulled up dt was seen that he had broken down.

Me “The general condition of the illustrious patient having become depressed, a consultation was held ata o’clock, with the participation of Prof. Rossoni. From. objective examination it appears that the liquid is again rapidly gathering in the pleura. The sounds of the heart are weak, without any symptons of valvular lesion. The pulse is easily compressible, and it has" 90 pulsations instead of 65. which is normal. The ~ breathing is superficial and at long intervals, The kidneys are not performing their regular functions, The state of His Holiness is considered grave. f “ROSSONI, “LAPPONI, ROME, July 9.—7.30 P. M.—After the consultation into “which Prof. Rossoni was called Dr. Lapponi came from the sick chamber long enough to say a few words. The doctor looked haggard and much de~ pressed. The hopeful appearance which he had shown early in the day had entirely disappeared. He said: “I fear there is no hope, no hope whatever. And yet the end may not come to-night. Although the patient’s’ condition is very grave, the disease seems to be develop- ing through slow but certain processes.” ii Dr. Rossoni and Dr. Mazzont left the Vatican after the consultation, but later Dr. Mazzoni returned. * It is expected that another official bulletin Will be issued about 9 o'clock to-night. ¢ One of the most remarkable features in the serious turn which affairs have taken is that the Pope continues dressed and -partly sitting up.
