Mr.. Blaine's Condition Assumes
Another Serious Phase.
HIS PHYSICIAN AT HIS BEDSIDE

The Fact That the Medical Men Have
Again Resortcd to Nitro-GIycerine to
Stimulate the Hearts Action increases
the Anxiety.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 13-Mr Blaine was
weaker at midnight thnn he has been
sincc he suffered the relapse three nights
ago His physicians. Drs. Johnston and
hEatt called Mt $50 O'clock, and remained
hiihe SICK room for forty minutes during
Fliich they made a thorough examination
OF the patient and gave him some addi-
tional medicines
When they came out Dir. Johnston said
That Mr.. Blaine had not had relapse at !
O'Clock, as stated. There were comp!ica

yielded To the treatment readily. but from
which the patient had not recovered ex-
ccpt at the loss Of strength He was sleep
ang at i0:lf when the doctors left the
house, but it was thought prudent for one
oi them to return.

James u. Blaine, Jr, who was evidently
sent tor as be came i'll his evening dress
from some of the up town clubs, and being
IN the house a few moments came out, dis
missed his carriage and said he would re.
main longer.
There was no unusual activity about
the honse, but there was an air which in
cheated that Mr.. Blaine was worse The
guarded utterances of the doctors seemed
especially more significant from what they
ialied to say than from what they actually
said DIR. Hyatt returned to the house
within fifteen minutes and remained all
night.
The fact that the doctors have had again
TO resort to the administration Of nitro
glycerine to stimulate the hearts action,
and the fact that long after midnight
bright lights We're burning in the room
connecting with the sick chamber seemed
TO Indicate that apprehension of further
complications was not by any means fully
ailayed.
