LYNCHBUKG, VA. Nov 6.-NIany Of
the reports circulated in regard to Stn-
ator John w. Daniel'S condition have
been grossly exaggerated. The Senator
is to-day practically we'll man. but his
physician, DR.. Rawley W. Martin. does
not think that he ought to expose him
self to any further fatigue just at pres
ent.
Or. Martin was seen to-day by your
correspondent. and he made the following
statement: The Senator is in first-ra te
condition. He came home several weeks
ago very much fatigued ard tired out.
He was suffering with malaria. and under
my advice he went to bed and remained
there for about ten days. He came home
on October 9Th I has been over two
weeks since he was in bed. and his condi-
ton is becoming better and better every
day.
II advised him to rest just because I
thought he would recuperate more rap
idly, and after a thorough rest would be
able to enter uron his Senatorial duties
in December with greater vigor.
Senator Daniel is not a sick man."
DR.. Martin concluded his statement by
declaring with a smile that Senator Dam
icl would yet be able to make the fur fly.

sible for the present high level of manu-

rise in food products due TO short crops
the present position of the index nunbsr
may be attributed to sound business con-
