while finding the senator's condition
critical, thinks he will recover. AS yet
there are no indications of clot on the
brain or paralysis, which accompany or
follow it, but the doctor says it isnottoo
late for such indications to appear and
paralysis may follow.
DIR. Written says: II have been his
physician % years and he never had a
similar stroke before. He had a strong,
robust constitution. This attack might
have been caused by overheating Or
overexertion, mental or physical. l
s.hink the stroke probably the result of
the physical changes experienced il, his
recent trip to the mountains"
After 2 O'Clock yesterday the senator
was able to talk some. In the mean

had been notified and a special train

ward indicated it as his desire that he
be removed to his home in Nebraska
City.
Later in the afternoon more ~unfavor-
able symptoms manifested themselves
and it was decided to abandon the at
tempt to remove him before today. The
senator was taken to the home of Rich
ard Opelt.
