was held to-day at the bedside Of E. w. Hal

While the physicians do not admit that Mr..
Halford's condition is dangerous. It is well
known that he has been for a week and is now
a very sick man. and the chances are that the
President will be deprived Of his services for
some time to come.
Mr.. Halford has been the Presidents right
hand man since he was inaugurated. and has
been very hard worker. He is suffering from
u serious internal trouble. and great anxiety is
