BROWN AND LEAN, and NOT IN VERY
ROBUST HEALTH

Fousett ConmIttee-A Moments ConA-
dsntiaI Chat with tho Mayor Aboard
ship-Driven TO His N ONE Inst Evening,
Where His wito Awaited Him.
Richard Croker. tho Tammany chieftain,
reached this city last evening on his return
from trio to Wiesbaden and Heidelberg for
the benefit OF his health. AS he stood on the
deck OF the steamship Aller at Quarantine at
sunset, his n-brownsd face gave him. Mt
first glance, a look OF rugRedness that ind-
Gated that his trip had been successful. But
on closer examination it could he seen that he
was much thinner than his wont, and that his
eyes lacked the sparkle that would have COM
ported with his complexion. And when he
moved there was n suggestion Of slugRishness
in place OF his natural nervous duickness OF
motion. But he said that he felt well, and that
ho had been very much improved by his trip.
A detention OF three hours by fpg gave the
Aller very tight squeeze to "save sunset"

OF tho sun closes the days work OF the health
officers. She was crowded across the lower
bay to do it. and TO group of watchers at tho
Quarantine station she seemed to rise right up
out OF the water SO suddenly did she appear.
She had a big bone in her teeth as she
tore through the Narrows at 1928 P. NJ. and

across the bay. She was just three minutes
behind time when her anchor fell from her
bows, and all on board OF her had made UP
their minds to pass another night aboard. The
riding boat at the station had her fires
banked and was useless. But Deputy Health
Officer Smith put Off to the ship in

Beekman. Mr.. Croker's family physician
and Mr.. John H. Campbell. his private Sec

four hours TO greet the returned voyager.
The Health Officer could not give them per-
mission to go aboard though they had Custom
House permits until he had ascertained that
there was no sickness among the ships peo
pie. The deputy went out for that purpose.
and finding it still light enough for inspecting
the passengers, he made his examination and

deputy out was followed by one containing
Mr.. Campbell and DR.. Beekman. and that by
