foundation for alarming reports regarding the

fined TO their homes and unable to perform
their duties in the Senate, there appears to be
nothing alarming about their condition
Senator Wellington Is In Cumberland and the fol-
lowing bulletin issued by his physician to-day, fully
explains his condition: Senator Wellington is
much better to-day and in a few days will be able
TO attend % business. BY Monday. at the present
rate OF Improvement. he Will have fully recovered
and will be able to go TO Washington. l hardly
think 1t prudent for him TO go out before then. He
was very sick Tuesday night, his right lung being
much congested. II is perfectly free again, and
strange to say. | think IL In better condition than
any time before. \ new channel seems TO have
been opened In the middle lobe"
Senator German has been suffering from neuralgia
and dysentery. but Is so far recovered TO be up
and about his farm at Laurel and has assured
his friends In this city that he will his
