time on it would be impossible for him
to attend to any business for the next
two months. DR.. Vincent declares that
under the most favorable circumstances
Mr.. Springer could not leave his house
within the next three weeks. After that
the doctor will insist that Mr.. Springer
go to Fortress Monroe for stay or four

gram, therefore, Mr.. Springer has prac-
tically concluded his services as chair
man of the ways and means committee
for this session of congress, for tariff
