WASIIINOTON , U. C. , Nov.33. Mr. Dlnlno's
condition was ngaln the subject ot universal
interest today , maJo so by ths publication of
sUitcmcnU that Ins ullmant had taken a
turn for lho worse nnd that his Ufa was in
Imminent danger. It Mr. UUlno's physician
and iho members of ins 1'mnlly nra to ba believed -
liovod , such slatomunts are mtsloadiug nnd
are not warranted oy the facts. List
summer a year ago Mr , Ulnlno loft
the city to sco his daughter before
she railed for IC'jropo. It win on tbat
occasion that no fell ill and wai raraovod
to his cottage at Har Il'irbor , where
ho passed tno sutumor and early tall in
convalcscono. The cause of his Illness was
then not an organic complaint , unless u pe
culiar sensitive stomach can be ho regarded.
Iti plain Kngiish , ho ate what was not good
for him viz. : rich food , and nto very much
of It. Heine run down in health nnd mentally
fatipuod from the labors of his ofilco , the
affairs ot which were then tn a critical state ,
with the Chilian anJ Italian ombrogllos
threatening to assume a serious form , Mr.
Ulaliic , who Is by no moans tn tno vigor of
youth , was imuie very 111 , and required sev
eral months tlmo to rocupjrate.
Last summer ho had another attack , but
since Ins return to Washington ho has
been In astute of hsalth that may fairly bo
described as his normal condition and capa
ble of earnest worlf , open air rides , wallis
and cheerful , but , withnt , very sonslvtlvo lo
irregularities of diet aud to sudden chances
of weather. It Is said by person1 : familiar
with his habits ihat for yours ho has boon
subject to slight Illness from these causes ,
and having a wholesome- belief In tbo onicacy
ot doctors and physicians , ho Is quick to note
the slightnst unfavorable svmptoms. to lake
to his bed and to send for his physician.
Oiiunn for Alarm.
As near as can bo learned , the illness from
which Mr. Blnlno is now suffering Is more
serious than those wnicu have preceded It.
He caught cold aud ho was Imprudent In his
diet. Some concoction followed and tboro
was fever In its train. The stomach was
made torpid and there was dlfllculty in di-
gosllon. Notwithstanding reports to the
contrary , it can be said that Mr. Hlaino has
shown no signs of mental abberation or de
lirium. There has boon much dlfllculty
oneounlcred lu lho cll'ort to got reliable
news as to his condition , nnd this
has fostered _ tlto origin and spread ot
exaggerated stories of Mr. Blalno's condi-
tion. The reason for this Is two-fold. In the
first place James Q. Blalnc , jr. . is absent ,
from Washington , leading nemo of the tumlly
nt tbo liouso except Mrs. Lttaino and Miss
Harriet Hlaino , who do not loot equal to the
task of answering the numerous culls for in-
forraalion. In lho second place , lho attend
ant physician ts oppressed by a fooling thnt
a public statement of n patient's condition
would bo a violation of professional etiquette
by tbo physician.
Tu the iLoruing It was stated bv the at
tendants who answered the boll that Mr.
B'.aino had passed a comfortable night nnd
was resllmr very easily. The atlendint
added : "Tbo tamily were much surprised
to sec the highly cxnaaera'od accounts of
Mr. Blulue's sickness in lho papers this
morning. Thav cannot understand how
such reports could have obtained circulation
and wish it stated thov are without lounda-
tion. "
Ills Doctor's Story.
Later in the day Dr.V. . W. Johnson , who
is in charge of the caso. called nt the house
and bad u short consultation ' "lib Dr.
Hyatt , who has been treating Mr. Blumo
bpoclallv for a stubborn bronlchal affection.
Subsequently Dr. Johnson informed u rcprc-
sonlalivoof the Associated press that the
published reports that Ir. Blalno is seri
ously ill are entirely without foundation.
' 'Tho fact Is. " ho said , "more Is nothing
really serious the rmutor with him. The
slight cold , with hccompanyini : fever , from
which ho suffered last WCOK , has entirely
passed awuy and he is so much liupiovcd
today that bo is ublo to bo dressed nnd to
move freclv about his room. "
Dr. Johnson said ho did not cure to talk
about the case , but in rcsnonsn to persistent
inquiries lie said ho felt sure. Mr. Hlaino
would bo nblc to go out of doors in a few
days , and that ho Is well able even now lu
stand a Journey in c.ico such u course is
deemed necessary for Ibo .better treatment
of his case. It Is learned from another source
that Mr. Ulaino will soon bo removed to some
point in the couth wllh the hope that u
warmer climate will bavo a beneficial effect
on his bronchial troubles , whichsouin to bave
been aggravated since thu cold spelt set in
hero.

Ci.cvciANi ) , O. , Nov. 25. It now appears
as though Ohio may have Intended to hnvo
cone for Cleveland by a slight margin.
Tonight the stnto statisticians in Columbus
completed tholr election count unon Indivi
dual presidential electors. It shows that
Lorenzo D. Ylckors , the republican elector
of the Eleventh district , is defeated byfumes
Sewurd , whoso tmuio appears llrst on the
list of democratic electors. Seward received -
coived 404,115 votes and YicltcM W..a'JD. '
It is thought tlio reason why S&ward
obtained BO many moro votes than
bis follow electors lies In tne Australian plan
of b illoilnp. To vote u straight democratic
tjcitet under this plan formerly it was ncccs-
essary only to place u cross opposite tun
name "democratic ticxet" ni tbo huud of the
list of candidates. This year , owing to the
tendency of voters to drop down OHO line In
their warning and designate the naiao of the
llrst candidate , thus erroneously voting for
him , tht ) law was amundod providing that
the crosses for straight tickois must
bo placed in circles printed for that
purpose at the tops of the ballota. U
was feared from * ho tirst that many
would neglect to comply with the new regu-
latlou nnd placa their marks at tbo side of
tlio ticket ut the top , thinking to vato It
slialght. Saward's election is talicn as ovl-
denua that this 'error was made by many
voles. It Is arguud that the cross was placed
beside his name by many who uunposod that
Uieroby they wore voting the democratic
ticket , where they only votod'forhim.
The abstracts of live counties have been
sent back for correction , and it is possible
that tboy may imperil two other lopubllcan
electors M. Kturkof the Twentieth district
and Luther Allen of the Twenty-llrst-
