BRISTOW STILL WEAK,
BUT GAINS STRENGTH
Has Severe Attack of Grip, But His
Physician Represents Him as 'Do-
ing Very Well"

The condition of General Bristow Is
reported today TO be somewhat improved.
and Acting Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Conrard said this morning that
while Mr.. Bristow is still weak, he is
slowly gaining strength, and he hopes
to return to his labors within a week
OF two.
At the office of DR.. Stearns who Is
attending him, The Times learned that
the patient was "doiEg very well"
There are, however, disgusting ru-
moTs about the . Postoffice Department
this morning, and a high official said 1t
had been impossible for the department
to get official communications to Mr..
Bristow for some days owing to the
seriousness OF his Illness.
These rumors were taken to Mr. Con-
rard. who sees Mr.. Bristow every day,
or causes some one from the office 10
visit him, and he said:
Mr. Bristow has severe attack Of
the grip. and all that that means. The
grip, you know, means most everything.
but he has not nervous -prostration. and
is not threatened with IT, and we expect
him back to his Office within a week. He
does receive communications from this
Office daily. l cannot think he ever made
the statement he feared he should break
down. even though the strain on him
was .rcat."
