 To-Day. .H
 Washington, Feb. 13.-Senator Han mas temperatude continues high. At 5 q. m., it reached 1O5 and the same point at q. m. This high altitude of the fever and the fact that the tenn perature has not yielded as readily to sponge baths as desired gives those about the senator great concern. 1t had been hoped that the climax in the fever would have passed with the re- action from the period of deep de pression that followed the chill.
 While the general conditions are more satisfactory than they were at 6 o'clock last night, yet they are not so good as they were yesterday morn ing. Throughout the night oxygen was given at intervals of about one hour. While the senator responds to requests made by the doctors in his wakeful moments, he does not talk. He continues drOwsy.
 Dr Butcher, assistant to- Dr Osler remained with the senator through the night. Dr Osler remained at the hotel and was with Drs Risley and Garter this morning when the pulse, temperature and respiration were taken, leaving about 10 a. m., for Bal timore. e* &
 It is not believed that the senator can withstand a fever at so high a point as. that shown throughout the latter part of the night and this morn ing.
 A fight is being made to reduce the fever.
 The senator was awake at times during the night, but on the whole the doctors say he passed comforta ble night. The stomach is in good con dition, and he has been able to take nourishment well so far
 A sponge bath given after the tenn perature was read at 105, only slightly reduced the fever, which again crept up to the 1O5 point. This fact was the discouraging feature of the night in the patients struggle for recovery. s # V The senator has shown wonderful vitality. One of the nurses remarked that his rally from the sinking spell yesterday was remarkable.
 The senator's brother, H. M. Hanna, continues firm in his belief of ulti- mate recovery.
 Mir. Dover found a large stack of telegrams on his desk when he came into the office this morning. These came from personal friends of the senator from all over the United States, and from numerous, organiza tions throughout the country. All ex- pressed hope for speedy recovery. Among the organizations sending mes sages from Lincoln day banquet ta- bles last night were the Young Repub- licans, of Missouri, at Kansas City; Lincoln Club, Little Rock, Ark; and Republican club, Utica, N. Y.; the Re publican club, Denver, Colo; the League of Republican clubs at Cleve- land, O. Another telegram came from the Fort Wayne, Ind, Trades council, and one from the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers at Denver.
 Callers began arriving early. Sen- ator Kittridge was the first to call. Senator Fairbanks was the, next to inquire L. < General Dick, who remained at the hotel until 5 m., was back by o'clock, to learn of the senator's con- dition. MT Loeb, secretary to the pres ident. also came early to the hotel to learn how the patient had passed the. night
 The senator's brother said at 1915 this morning:
 "The chill of yesterday was severe and prolonged but the reaction has been very satisfactory. This morning all the conditions except higher tenn perature are more favorable than they were last night, but not better than they were yesterday morning. The organs are in a normal typhoid fever condition. think the tempera- trre will be lowered by the means now being employed"
 The senator's son, Daniel K. Hanna, who came from Cleveland, in response to a long distance telephone message yesterday, announcing that his father was believed to be passing through the climax of his illness, arrived at 1O.2O a. m. today, accompanied by his wife
 At 1.15 Senator Hanna was a little improved over his morningc condi- ton. His temperature was lower as the result of heroic efforts to reduce it.
 At 2 o'clock this afternoon Senator Hanna's physicians decided to resort to the use of more oxygen. ...
 At lAalf-past Senator Hanna's brother, Sn leaving the sick room, said that MT Hannas temperature had been reduced to 1OOS and that all conditions were favorable. at ha
