Carson, New, Feb. 24.-Although Dan
Stuart protector of pugilistic enterprises,
has been confined to his room for ten
days, it was not known until this evening
that the Texan had on two occasions
been given up by his physicians. 1t had
been reported all along that Stuart was
suffering from an attack of indigestion.
Tonight it was stated that he was taken
down with peculiar kind of pneumo-
mia, known in this section as mountain
fever. Both Stuart's lungs were af-
fected, and last Thursday his tempera-
turc was 104. A consultation, ut which
four leading physicians of this city were
present, was held and the medical men
decided that Stuart had not more than
one chance in twenty to recover. This
afternoon he was able to walk about his
room, and hopes to be about inside of n
week. The physicians will not allow
anybody to see Stuart.
The live bird shoot to be given here
