ia the best issued during the week ,
and generally so accepted. The pres

midnight the pain from the inflamed
gland was lessened by proper .applica

passed comfortably. After -I * aT m. ,

the president He staled 1hisinorn- ,
ing that the president suffered no
great discomfort from the inll.unation.
In ether respects he seems to bo get
ting on nicely.
The General thinks the crisis ia
passed. The UHual encmata was ad
ministered very early and another
after the morning dressing. Between
tliCBU administrations the president
took a little of his favorite milk brotl
which ho relished. When nsket
about the swelled gland lie said it fell
much better than last night. He
added that it caused him no great
worry , for the surgeons tell him it will
aopn pass away , and ho believed them.
Hia pulse has not fallen to 100 for
eight days until this morning. His
temperature is just at the poinl
which has in this case been regaruec
ns normal , also respiration.
TUB I'HESIDKKT'S CASH
at this hour stands as follows : The
wound is causing no trouble , the in
flamed gland ia better than it was yes
terday , the stomach is in a condition
to take at least ui much food as i
could yesterday , and probably more ,
and the president says lie feels oasici
and improved.
8KVERAL OAHINKT OPPIt'KllS ,
who called this morning , accept the
indicationa ns very encouraging.
THE noirrniLs
nay the morning examination shows
the pua to bo flowing to the aatisfac
tion of nil , nnd Ihat the wound ia in
excellent condition in every respect.
It is thought that the wound ia now
healed from the ball out to within
throe mchea of the mouth of the last
incision. Notwithstanding these
signs of slight improvement the weak
condition of the president makes the
case very critical , yet the ria-
ing of now complications is possi
ble at any time. "While this is
not expected it is possible. Meanwhile
the feeling hero to-day is that the
chances for recovery are steadily im
pro vine. Thoioportcd statement of
Gov. Sheldon that the physicians rcc-
ogni/.ed pyaemia trouble in the in-
Humiliation of the gland is reiterated
by that gentleman to-day , but he says
that what Mrs. Garflcld told him wna
that the doctors said that the inflamed
gland was idenco of n mild form of
pyaemia of n local character , and one
that would pass nwny by atippcration ,
ns stated in these dispatches last even
ing. The theory is
THAT TUB INKMMMATIO.V
is duo to the great debility of the pa
ticnt and the consequent low condi
tion of liia blood , and not that pyao <
mia has act in. All the surgeons have
denied the existence of pyaemia , und
do so still , There is not the slightest
indication of pyaemia trouble , and it
I'M considered strange that any ono
whould look for the Jirst indication of
such n trouble in n man's absorbing

WAHUJ.VOTOV , August 10. This
has certainly been "Good Friday" in
the president's caso. The week hus
been one of great anxiety. To-day
has been ono ot increased encourage
ment. Ita features have been plainly
recognizable. The stomach has
shown itself able to sustain adequate
nourishment , nnd n < danger is appro ,
bonded from the swelling of the pa
rotid glands. The temperature Jms
indicated bettor vitality than for six
days. The pulse ia moro satisfactory
than ut any time during the week.
The pyaemia warein i elation to pa
rotid inflammation hua pretty well n

claimed by ( Jen , Grant nnd Conkling
hat it ia now the duty of the vice

the urgent solicitude of Colliding the
