longed For a Few More
Months.
NO PROSPECT or RECOVERY.
The Emperor Was VisibIy
Affected by the Doctors
Verdict.

LONDON, Oct. 10.-The correspondent
of The Standard at St. Petersburg tele-
graphs that he has learned from an eye
witness that Professor Zaccharin while
in attendance upon the czar said to
him: "Your majesty's malady is in
durable. With care and attention your
valuable life may be prolonged for some
months. but it is useless to conceal the
fact that no remedies will avail beyond
a certain period" The emperor after
the interview, entered room in which
a number of his relatives were as
sembled, and said: Professor Zac-
charm has just told me there is no
hope"
The emperor was visibly affected and
those present were thrown into state
of CONSERVATION by the change in his
face and bearging. They greatly
blamed the professor for his frankness.
The correspondent adds: II cannot
doubt the authenticity of the fore
going"
1t is reported that Professor Leyden
considers that Brights disease, from
which the czar is suffering, has existed
for two years, and that he was sur
prised that the malady was not discov'
cred before.
