WILSON'S ILLNESS

Many in Alaska have been concern cd aS to the exact nature of President Wilson's illness. In the mail received in Seward the following article Is given m the newspapers:
 The actual condition ot the prcsi- dent and the precise character of hi.P ajlmcnt were communicated 70 Secretary of State Lansing and other members of the cabinet by Dr. GraySl. but with the under standing that nothing should nc made public beyond tho informal ton contained in the official bullc- tins framed by the physicians in a. tendance,
