Mr. Blafne's Physician Says There Are
Evidences of Local Organic Disease.
WASHINGTON, Dec. l7.-The follow
ing statement is given the United Press
BY DR.. johnson, the physician Of Mr..
Blaine, with the approval of his family:
Mr.. Blaine has been suffering for
some time past with symptoms of inn
paired general health, but which did
not indicate disease of any particular
organ. Evidences of local organic dis
eases have been manifested recently,
and it Is believed his present condition
ID due to this cause. While there Is
nothing in the natuxe of this disease to
warrant the fear Of any rapid progress,
he has shown within a month past more
signs of serious illness than before. 1t
Is hoped that this aggravation may
pass of. but no positive statement can
be made as to the changes which may
take place from day to day. At the
present moment he is better than for a
week past.

A crowd Of democrats and others
who wanted reform in the tariff and
didn't feel a bit backward in ex-
pressing how they felt about it, fill
ed the Concert Hall Of Harris's
Academy of Music, Baltimore, last
night. Speeches in behalf of the

guished democrats from Washington,
who have championed their prinei-
pies on the floors of Congress. 1t
was the first meeting Of general i'm
portsnce since the selection of the
date and place for the National
Democratic Convention, and can
therefore be called the opening OF
the campaign for the presidential
nomination. The demonstration
was gotten up by the Maryland Tar
if Reform Club, which arranged it
to spread its doctrine throughout the
city and State, and the stirring ar
gumsnts which were made were
greeted with plenty Of applause.
The speakers who came over and
talked at the meeting were Congress
men William l.. Wilson, of West
Virginia: John Dewitt Warner, of
New York; Henry q. Turner, of
Georgia, and Joseph IL. Cultivate,
of Ohio Senator Carlisle was de-
tanned unexpectedly in New York
