A SICK STATESMAN.


Ex-Secretary Blaine's Career Fears
That He Will Never Recover-Some-
thing About His Disease.
WASHINGTON, Dec 17.-There is no
material change in Mr.. Blaine's con-
dition. Friday he showed temporary
improvement and during the afternoon
and evening he was perhaps little bet
ter. But there were no signs of per-
manent gain in strength. Those near
and dear to him had a faint CLEAN of hope
that his strength might yet come back
enough for him to be removed to a
more kindly climate, yet they did not
deceive themselves into believing that
this was anything more than remote
probability. Mr.. Blaine's family real
ling that his present sickness is I'M
like any attacks he has had in the
past.
Mrs. Blaine is constantly at his bed
side. James G. Blaine, Jr.. Miss Hat

Blaine's cousin, Miss Dodge, are all at
the family residence. Outside of his
family and physicians, and possibly his
religious advisers, nobody has been
able to see. tMr. Blaine. Until the last
day or two his family have been hope
full that his present attack was only a
temporary one, but the signs of lost
vitality are such that they no longer
seek to comfort themselves with this
hope. They do not give up entirely,
but they realize that Mr.. Blaine is in a
much more dangerous condition than at
any previous time.
The distinguished patients present
illness dates back only ten days. He
went out driving then and caught cold,
which was followed by fever. For a
few days this did not seem likely to
prove more serious than the previous
attacks. Mr.. Blaine apparently was
rallying from it, but the improvement
did not continue. He has been grow
ing worse since last Saturday, though
he has had one or two temporary rallies
and has been bright and cheerful.
Mr.. Blaine is said to be suffering
from no special malady beyond the
general giving way Of his physical
powers It is possible that he may
really be victim of Bright's disease,
and the spells Of nervous prostration
to which he has been subjected are due
to this cause, yet there is moth.
ing that can be learned definitely.
Mr.. Blaine's spells of illness have
been so frequent that his family have
naturally been averse to giving pub
licity to them. The widespread inter.
est in the foremost private citizen OF
the republic iustifes the statements
which are made regarding his condi-
ton now. He has practically been an
invalid for three years past, and
whether chronic disease has been
making ravages on his system or
whether succession of attacks of mild
illness has weakened him there is no
longer any question that his vitality is
impaired so that his recovery is des-
paired of by those who know the facts.
The sympathetic interest is as wide.
spread as it is deep. From every cor.
ner of the land and from almost every
part Of Europe inquiries come daily to
know how Mr. Blaine is. The answer
cannot longer be made cheering.
