A REVIEW OF TIE X-SENATOR'S ILLNESS.
THE TROUBLE DUE, MORE OR LESS DIRECTLY TO
an At RfIZzARD

Mr. ConklIngs Illness is supposed to have been due
originally TO the exposure which the ex-senator sui
fered during the blizzard OF March 10. On that day.
he attempted to walk from his office. No. Wa-st, to
the New-York Club in Madison Square, He found
himself unable to proceed when he was 10 the middle
OF Union Square, and had no not been rescued by
police officer he would undoubtedly have ded that
day. Several days after he complained to friends in
the Hoffman House. and elsewhere, that no feeling
unwell He continued ailing until on Friday, April
g. after he had been exposed to severe draft In Judge
Horace RusseIs office, at a reference the day before
his illness came TO a point
Dr. Cornelius r. Agnew, who is himself lying
at the point OF death, called In to attend the Sick
man, and recognizing at the seriousness of the
case, called In consultation DR.. Fordyce Barker and
DR. Henry b. Sands. Upon examination, these physi-
clans concluded that absccss had formed between the
patients brain and SKULL Immediately behind the left
ear and had involved the auditory canals that side
OF the head The necessity Of operation was indi
Gated by the symptoms and on April o, at p m, Dr.
Henry n. Sands performed the capital operation Of
trephning by the modern method Instead Of boring
a hole through the skull with angerlke instrument,
a section of the bone above the pus sac was raised
by means of chisel and mGllet.
As soon as the opening completed quantity
OF pus oozed out, ounce iD oil The relief Of
the pressure the brain caused an Immediate improve
mcnt in the patients condition. This continued for
several days, during which, however, the Senator
gradually developed a delrous condition, and was
reduced to state OF weakness from lack OF noursh-
ment for he refused almost all food Toward the eud
of last week. his condition auctuang from day to
day, but seemed TO promise ultimate recovery. Last
Saturday night DR.. Barker noticed with alarm the ap
pearance Of an involuntary twitchng Of the muscles,
Known TO science subsaus. On Sunday night
attack of bronchitis began 10 show Itself, and from
that time tho ex Senator has gradually declined, al
though his condition improved slightly at intervals.
During the whole period of illness Mrs. Conkllng,
who came TO the Hoffman Annex, No West Twenty
fourthst. from Utica Sunday, April s, remained at
the bedside, taking but few hours rest. Mrs. Oak
Dr. AudcrtOn, who ~ Or. Barker's assistant, and Dr.
Hartley Of Dr. Sandss Office, have altcrnated In care
