WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-The front door
Of the Blaine mansion was opened at s
o'clock and inquiry made of the attend

The reply was that "Mr. Blaine passed a
comfortable night and is now resting
easily"
The great red house III which Mr.
Blaine is confined was trimmed with
white this morning, for snow fell heavily
during most of the night and showed no
signs of cessation when the Blaine resi-
dence was opened. It continued fallin G
during the day and banked up against
the sides of the house and the streets
leading to It. 1t may have been the
storm or it may have been the assuring
news in the morning papers that kept
people from making inquiries at the resi-
dence-at any rate there were no callers
during the early part OF the morning and
little interest was taken in the appear.
