SECRETARY FOSTERS CONDITION.
Some Alarming But False Rumors-He
Steadily Recovering.

Some Alarming But False Rumors-He Is
Steadily Recovering.
There was rather an alarming rumor abroad
on the streets today to the effect that Secretary
Foster was very dangerously i'll and that Dr. J.
B. Hamilton, formerly surgeon general Of the
marine hospital service. had been sent for in
haste from Chicago to take charge of the case
This rumor caused considerable alarm in
the Treasury Department until it was learned
that it was quite unfounded beyond the fact
that the Secretary is still confined to his house
with an attack of the grip, from which he is
steadily recovering.
DIR. Hamilton is in charge of the case, but he
was not sent for from Chicago. He chanced to
be here on leave when the Secretary returned
from New York and became ill, and
he had previously attended the Sec
retary he was summoned. This a
fortnight ago. When his leave expired he
was formally ordered by the Secretary to duty
m this city, and thus he has remained here.
He considers the Secretary out of all danger,
but insists that he be kept perfectly quiet. as
he is still weak, and a relapse might
come from any over-exertion. He thinks
that the Secretary may be able TO drive out on
Saturday or Sunday if the weather continues
fine. and if the patient keeps on improving the
doctor may let him start south by the latter
part Of next week. He will not be at the treas
ury for several weeks.

Secretary Proctor Winding Up His Business
at the War Department.
Secretary Proctor is very busy closing up
some matters of official business left unfinished
when he went to Vermont. He is undertaking
no new business, all of which is referred to As
sistant Secretary Grant, and expects to be able
to seve- his connection with the War Depart
ment tomorrow evening OF Saturday. His res
lgnation has been in the Presidents hands since
November last, and will take effect at the Sec
tary's pleasure.
lhe Secretary was accompanied to Washing
ton from Vermont by Mrs. Proctor. Their
little son, however will remain north some
time longer in order to enjoy his winters
sport. which the more southern climate of
Washington prevents.
HIS CHANGED APPEARANCE
The Secretary-Senator has made a slight
change in his personal appearance since he left
Washington by letting his mustache grow
Heretofore he has a full beard, with a
smooth upper lip. The alteration will necessi-
tate the destruction Of good many newspaper
cuts of MIR. Proctor now in existence, for the
addition OF the mustache makes a considerable
alteration in his physiognomy.
