Paul summoned French Cardinal Jean Villot, 72, the camerlengo (chamberlain) he had appointed to administer the church between his own death and the election of a new Pope. While the others in the room retreated to a far side, Paul spoke privately for five or six minutes with Villot, who is also the Vatican Secretary of State. The Pope's breathing grew more and more labored. At one point he said, "We have arrived at the end. We thank ..." Then his voice trailed off.

...these three Italians and two non-Italians: they are simply the early-form leaders in a very open race. There is, for example, a second rank of Italian papabili, led by the able Archbishop of Florence, Giovanni Cardinal Benelli, 57.

...refugees frequently cite disaffection with Haiti's regime, although it has been liberalized somewhat under Papa Doc Duvalier's son Jean-Claude. "I can't say anything against the government or I go to jail," says Andre Gerard, 22, a Haitian who arrived in Miami by way of the Bahamas. Adds Ivon Louis, 27, "It's still the same thing, man. Papa and Baby are the same...
