THE PHYSICIANS MOKE HOPEFUL.
That the president's physicians are
'more encouraged than nt any time
during the case is shown at their every

The danger of a 'relapse ' during the

10:45 : a. m. The president has
more strcngh and vitality now than at
anytime since the shooting , and is
constantly gaining. His progress is
slow , but as long as no unfavorable -
favorable symptoms appear the
doctors say all is progressing
oven beyond thoir1 expectation.
NO UNFAVORABLE SVMPTOMB.
With his increased pulse there was
no increased unfavorable 'new symp
toms. Every symptom was favorable
and all but the regular sick room at
tendants wont home in confidence.
The president slept well hot as the
night was , and suffered no great un
easiness. Ho took nourishment fre
quently , and a little more at a time
than on the proceeding night. He
talked but little simply because ho
know it was best ho should not.
His naps were short principally , but
now and then ho remained asleep for
a considerable length of timo. Miss
Dr. Edson , whoso watches at the bed
side were relieved by Cols. Rockwell
and Swain , left the mansion soon ater
daylight. She said to one who < met
her that the president was doing
nicely. His pulao has gene down
again and all symptoms are favorable.
Tlio doctors -came early and be
gan an examination at nine
o'clock. At 7:30 : , p. m. Gen
eral James , surnamed "tho hopeful , "
drove up and 'entered the mansion.
It took him but a few moments to
learn that the president was improved
and ho came down stairs radiant.
"That man is sure to get well , " said
he , "The people want him. Ono of
the best features of this whole affair
is the intenco fooling it has developed
in the South. It is so very gratify
ing to all. The president may not
change his condition much for some
time , " continued Gen. James , "but
ho will pull through all right. "
Dr. Boynton , who loft Mrs. Garfield
at Long Branch , on receipt of the news
of the death of the president's undo in
Ohio , returned to-day. Ho reached
the White House at 9 a. in. and was
much encouraged at the president's
condition.
11.10 a. in. The cooling- apparatus
in thp presidents room works nicely
and ho enjoys the effect very much.
The president awoke at 11 and asked
for more nourishment. This appetite
is looked upon as ono of hia most , fa
vorable symptoms , 'i y
J : 12:30 : a. m. Tlio physicians find the
president's condjtion ab ut the same
and are consulting as to treatment.

the 'greatest' ' danger will be1 passed.
3 p. m. The president's pulse is
going down again and orcry symptom
is increasing in favornblonoss.
MOHB CONVINCED THAN RVBR THAT TUB
WASHINGTON , July , 8. ' Public
anxiety- , certainly on the move hero ,
but public interest is by no moans
loss. i People talk of nothing else. At
the same time all is but hope , for the
doctors oven dare not have confidence.
Dr.Keyburn said to-day that his hope
was grounded firmer now oven than
ycstcrdaypvhon ho could sep that the
family were confident , and if ho know
any reason why they should not bo ho
would certainly try to guard against a
dangerous disappointment.
HKSOUmONrt OK SYMPATHY.
Secretary Windom has received
from.tho Union Loasuo club , of Chicago
cage , through its president , copies of
the resolutions of sympathy for the
president and wishes for his quick re
covery.

HONOIIED.
Secretary Blaine spout almost the
entire morning at the .stnto department -
ment , not calling at the White Ilouso
until noon. Ho thinks the president
will recover. Secretary Blaine denies
that the card of the eminent surgeon ,
jh . Gross , of Philadelphia , was not
honored at the White House.
NOT AU.OWKI ) TO CONVB11SK.
The president has refrained almost
entirely from conversation to-day. Dr.
Woodward said to him , "Tho course
0S the bullet is past tlio diaphragm
to < or through the liver. Every word
you utter moves the diaphragm and
disturbs the liver. " The president
recognized the situation and said that
ho would not speak.
The president was removed to-day
from the bed ho has been on to a nar
row 0110 secured for the purpose , BO
that his attendants can moro easily
attend to his wants. In all probabil
ity lie will bo moved again this after
itt . A patent hospital cot was sent
to Dr. Bliss from Boston , and was
brought to the White Houso. It will
allow the president to move about and
change position without much exor-
tion. Ho was moved from ono bed to
tiai
another without discomfort , and
ain
another moving is not likely to pro
duce any harm. J
* | TJio following was sent to the widow
of Gen. George H.Thomas : Dear Mrs.
Thomas Your letter of the 5th inst.
is just at hand. It awakens associa
tions and feelings that I can't find ex

be able to add that the president is do-j
ing nicely , gaining strength every

The following" dispatch was sent by
the surgeons in charge to the two con
sulting surgeons :
EXECUTIVE MANSION , July 7 1 p.
m. During the past twouty-four
hours the president has continued to
improve slowly as was anticipated. A
slight rise of temperature ana a slight
increase in the frequency of the pulse
occurred during the afternoon and
evening. At 8:110 : p. m. the pulse was
104 , temperature IOC , respira
tion 23. But in accordance
with tin's and diurnal movement ,
Both pulsoft and temperature were
again diminished this morning , .mid
showed some improvement over yes
terday at the same hour. At 9 a. m.
the pulse was 94 , temperature 99J ,
respiration 23. Lost evening at 9:30 :
p. m. a quarter of a grain of morphiao
sulphate was administered hypodermically -
mically , and the president
slept very well during tljo
night. In addition to chicken
broth and albumen , ho had yesterday
evening a small quantity of scraped
beef tenderloin which , however , ho
did not relish very much. This morn
ing ho is taking oat-meal gruel and
milk at intervals of two hours , with
relish.
Yollowishnoss of the skin , so com
mon after u wound of the liver , de
veloped to a slight degree during yes
terday , but is not moro marked
this morning. Vfo do not attach
a great deal of importance except so
far t > s to confirm the opinion already
formed of the nature of the wound.
Wo feel that the patient has done as
well as could have reasonably been
expected up to the present time , and
our hopes of his ultimate recovery
are strengthened by the events of the
lost four days.

QllEAT SYMPATHY IN THE NOUTH.
WAHHINOTON , July ? . The shooting
of the president has developed a won
derful fooling of sympathy in the
south' Ex-Senator Bruce , register of
the treasury , has received hundreds
of letters and telegrams from Missis
sippi from rpiidonts of all classes ,
color and politics , deeply deploring
the attempted assassination , denounc
ing the deed and expressing their sin
cere hopa of the president s recovery.
The letters- and telegrams cam'o to
Register Bruce from both white and
colored people , democrats and repub
licans.
WHERE If ) TUB FJE8J1 BALL.
Quito a'raystery hangs about the
whereabouts of the first bullet fired by
the assassin at the president. The
first report was that it lodged in
hia arm , This proved incorrect. It
merely struck tlio sleeve , hut \ hat
became of it nf torward is n mystery.
It could not possibly hare passed out
of the room , nnd yet both the walls
have boon carefully examined. There
is no mark of the bullet upon them.
The room was carefully searched yet
no traces of the ball , nnd the clothing
of thoprosidont , Was closely cxamimod ,
but still oo trnco could bo found of it ,
The president's bloc'dlng was large
ly exaggerated. The newspapers
throughout the land were replete with
accounts of how the clothing of hit
excellency was smeared vfkli blood
and the iloor of the depot made
slipjjory with it. Oddly enough , the
president shed no biood. At all appearances
(
pearances there was a single spot of
crimson dye on the inside of his
vest. The wound did not bleed.

They will make a big collection. Tele
