SENATOR HANNA'S ILLNESS.
Physicians Pronounce It to Be Typhoid
Fever of An Irregular Kind.

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Han
mas illness is officially pronounced by
his physicians to be irregular typhoid,
that is. typhoid fever with the fever
symptoms less regular and marked
than in the pronounced type of the
disease. 1t is stated that there are no
organic complications to add to the
seriousness of the case, but the sena-
tor at the time of the attack was in
a literally worn out condition, so that
his extreme physical weakness and
nervous depression, coupled with his
age, &c years, and frequent recent
rheumatic attacks, makes the case one
OF much more gravity than an ordi-
nary attack of typhoid. The crisis of
the fever is not expected before the
middle of next week.
Washington, Feb. S.-Senator Han
ma passed Sunday without any radical
change in his condition. His extreme
weakness was more marked than here
tofore and his temperature was a lit
tie higher. Those attending him, how
ever, insist there Is nothing signifi-
cant In the condition and there are no
developments on which to change
their expressed belief that the out
look is hopeful for the senator's re-
covery. There was a consultation Of
DR.. Rixey and two out-oftown physi-
clans during the day but the only Inn
portant development that transpired as
to the consultation was that 1t had
been decided to omit the evening call
Of the attending physician so as to
give the patient more rest.
II was announced that Dr. Edward
Perkins Carter. Of Cleveland, Sena-
tor Hanna's family physician, will
reach here Monday at the request Of
the senator.
