JUDGE DAT,S CONDITION.
Encouraging stnt n by the Attend-
 ing Pt., siciau.

Washington, March 12-After his visit tonight, Dr. B. L. Aladdin, the at. tending physician, made the following statement:
 Judge Day has moderately sever attack of pneumonia. He is very com- fortable tonight and his symptoms at present do not occasion alarm. Dr. Os- Ter of Johns Hopkins university will see him in consultation tomorrow morn ing"
 The friends of Judge Day are very apprehensive concerning his condition. His temperature to-day was very high, running up to the neighborhood of 105. He is not a man of robust physique but on the contrary is of frail appearance and it is feared may be unable to with stand severe attack of illness, though hopes are entertained that his excellent habits and the careful nursing and medical attention he is securing wifi enable him to pull through. Never 9 man of strong appearance 1t was re- marked when he came here to take his place on the bench of the supreme court that he seemed to be very much thinner than when in Washington as secretary of state.

MRS. PAINE LEAVES BUFFALO.
Lief. City Last Night and Whereabouts
 Are Unknown.

Buffalo, March 12. Mrs. Seth T. Paine, who is one of the witnesses for the Burdick inquest, left the city to- night. Where she went is not definitely known by the police, but at late hour tonight it was stated positively by a police official, that she had left the city. A detective sergeant was looking for her with a summons to appear before Judge Murphy, who will conduct the Burdick inquest Saturday. When he called at the house tonight he was informed that Mrs. Paine was not at home. He was not satisfied with this reply and entered the house.
 After leaving the Paine house he went ct once to the New York Central station. He was told by the ticket agent there that a woman closely an- swering Mrs. Paine's description had bought a ticket. He did not remember for what place, but he thought it was for Batavia. Mrs. Paines husban is a dentist and practices in Batavia.
 Edwin l.. Burdick's will which is to be offered for probate tomorrow mor1l- ing cuts off Mrs. Burdick and bequeaths the estate share and share alike to the three children. G. H. Dunston, A. B. Kellogg and George c. Miller are named as executors. A clause in the will nam- ing the three executors and guardians for the children will likely be contested on the ground that the appointment is void because Mrs. Burdick is still alive.

 pretenses. Dr. Flower was mentioned by Mr. Garvan in his affidavit asking for an order to exhume the body of Theodore Hagaman.
 Mrs. Taylor in her affidavit alleges that on February 2S she had talk with
 Dr. Flower at his office about certain company. She alleges Dr. Flower said the company was paying per cent. a month and that she gave Dr. Flower
 $500. Subsequently, she alleges, An

 Dr. Flower was later arrested on a second warrant charging him with at tempting to brbe a public officer He is alleged to have made an affidavit charging Andrew D. Meloy with the same crime, and in which, it is alleged, he acknowledged having given Meloy $2,50O to give to Inspector (then cap tain) Titus. Meloy was also arrested on warrant on the same charge. Inspector George Titus said tonight regarding the accusa tions of Dr. Flow CT and Andrew D. Meloy:
 T never saw either of them, and I never got a cent from Flower or Meloy If either of them says I did, then I shall certainly go to law to recover for such an accusation. That matter was investigated and it was shown that Flower gave Meloy money, but I never got any money from these men,"
