SAYS it is manifest that the officially
published denials regarding the
health of Nice-President Wilson are
of a diplomatic character. There is
the best authority for the statement
that his physicians contemplate the
apple itlon OF a seton in the base of
the brain as the only possible cure
for his disorder, and it is also certain
that his most intimate friends have
the gravest fears Of the result. 1t is
stated that this application has been
delayed in order to permit Mr.. Will
son to so regain his general health

owned by Americans, and hat the
line came to the assistance of the Gov
eminent when all other steamship
companies combined and refused to
carry the mails without increased
compensation. On the other side, it
is claimed that none Of the stock is
now really owned by Americans, and
that the interests of cOmInerce require
quick transit. irrespective of the ma
tionality of the flag. If the matter is
not adjusted before the meeting of
Congress, the contest for the Euro
pean mail contracts will be very little.
During January, all European mail
contracts are to be re-let, and the re-
spective steamship lines are already
organizing to secure the mails. 1t is
even intimated that the Canard line
will carry the mails for nothing, and
