the continued tranquility of the pa
tient. Ho had not , she said , been at
all troublesome. There has not been
any indication of vomiting or any nau
sea whatever. Mrs. Edson informed
a watchman as she wont toward her
room that the president was getting
bettor. From that time until ? o'clock
there was another season of extreme
quiet about the private part of the
mansion. Mrs. Garlield did not rise
as early as usual.

came down later ; Attorney General
MacVeagh did not come down as
usual ; Dr. Agnew had his duster and
traveling bag with nim. All these
were straws showing that thu wind
was blowing favorably. The first
conclusive evidence was Secretary
Brown's information , about 8 o'clock ,
that his pulse was 104 , the best morn
ing pulse for several days. The bul
letin shows improvement and is good
evidence that another start has boon
made in the right direction.

that ho would return to Philadelphia

him there now ; Dr. Hamilton would
remain , and that ho would return in a

A printed story comes from the
west to the effect that Dr. Bliss
stamps all published interviews with

mistake. Except when thcro is
no favorable news Dr. Bliss is
always willing to talk candidly to
these who approach him. The agent
of the National Associated Press has
lad dozens of interviews with Dr ,
[ Jliss , some of them covering as much
as an hour's time. Ho has also a
collection of autograph answers
o questions submitted in
writing ut all hours of the day

nothing beyond the fact that some

iianufacturod out of whole cloth.

WASHINGTON , August 18 , The

sent a note to Dr. Bliss this afternoon
taking if he wrote a letter credited to
lim in The Chicago Evening Journal
of August 15th , in which ho was said
, o refuse all conversation with corre
spondents and in which also all re
ported interviews with him were
ilmractcrized as pure inventions and
: ho inventors were said to bo a "press
jang" trying to muko fools of the
physicians. Tlio doctor replied in
writing ns follows : "In reply to your

UU. HAMILTON
has not thoucht beat to enter into A
detailed explanation of the elm me to
of the inflammation of the parotii
gland , but has given repeated assur
uncos this afternoon that it in no
such as to alarm the physician * .
DR. IU11NHS ,
after the iwuo of the noon bulletin
said the president showed marked im
nrovcmoiit as coliiprtteu wttn thoMino
hour yesterday , and that the iullain
niation was comparatively trill 1113.
11UMOIW.
Among the rumors this evening
was ono that the condition of tin
president's body indicated a genera
b.ul condition of thirblooil. Another
wns that a prominent surgeon hai
predicted thnt this inuriung wouU
sliNw aRonera ! outbroakiiig of pyAomin.
One prominent physician , who luu
devoloiicd some opposition to the
doctors earlier in. the case , says to
night that thu itttondinir doctors nro
right in their assertions tluti
the inllainination is not pyaomta.
There have been several coses
in his practice where mich inilamum-
tfon resulted when the circu'instanbos
of tlio case have not allowed the pa
tient to take nourishment throH h the
mouth. JIo explained it by ua.vi
that the parotid gland , secreting ,
it does , much of the Ralivn , muat
necessarily inflame if the accretion
becomes too great , as saliva has no de
mand upon it unless food passes in
the vicinity of its secretion. It does
not seem natural to believe that the
continued abstinence of the president
from taking food may have resulted
in a sufficient detention of saliva to
have provoked inflammation. This
theory is further encouraged by the
fact that now , since the resumption
of natural nourishment has been
bettor established , inflammation has
already greatly subsided at 10p.m. ,
and was causing comparatively slight
annoyance.
There were a few callers at the
\Vhito House to-night. Among
these were Gen. Sherman , Justice
Harlan and Judge lleyuolds. Th'e
cabinet were all there at ono time or
another during the evening. The
physicians savc them encouragement
by sayinj ; that the stomach had begun -
gun to act so well and that the wound
was continuing to heal. They reas
serted their statements that there
was nothing of an alarming nature in
the inflammation of the gland.
SECKETAHY 11LAINE
says to-night that ho feels moro on
couragomcnt. Postmaster General
Tames says : "It looks brighter than
over. " Windom and other members
of the cabinet expressed themselves
as satisfied with the progress of the
day. Dra. Bliss and Woodward are
on duty to-night , and Dr. Boynton
and Col. Rockwell divide the sick
room vigil. The president retained
still moro of tho-milk gruel this .even
ing , and Bays it .is the beat thing
ho has taken in many a
day. His wife made it.
Ha fell asleep naturally at 9 a. m.
and did not awake- for an hour.
WHAT UK. KEYBtniN SAYS.
Towards evening ono ot the surgeons
was talking by telephone of the in
flammation. Ho Raid it was the i csult
of the extreme debility of the patient
aod should cause no alarm. The same
surgeon stated that the president had
not only partaken of koumiss several
tiiuob during the day , but had partu-
ken of milk gruel prepared by Mrs.
Garfiold. This nourishment was all
retained without the slightest nausea.
In conclusion the telephone stated
that the president was doing fully as
well as could bo expected und was , in
fact , getting on admirably. At 7 p.
m. Dr. Reyburn said that ho was im
proving.
"How about the inflamrnatio" ? "
"It now causes less pain than ear
lier in the day. "
"What will bo the end of it ? "
"Wo hope to scatter it , but it may
suppcrato. In either event it need
not cause any alarm. Of course it is
\ source of worry to the president , but
the pain will not bo severe after the
Tirst hour. It pains him less now ,
Mr. Boynton thinks the inflammation
something moro of soptonmnia , not
; hat it is an indication of blood poi
soning brought about by long prostra
tion , and which asserts itself now On
account of the extreme debility of thu
patient. "
