LONO BitANCit , Sept. 15 , 8-10 : n. in.
Tlio morning bulletin has not yet
boon issued , and there is great feeling
of uneasiness. This unuiisinoss has
been intensified by the fact thai both
'
Dr. Ag'now nnd Dr. Hamilton went t6
thu president's room n fovr minutes
after 8 o'clock nnd remained there
until half-past 0 o'clock. It had been
understood that Dr. Agncw was to
have taken the early train to Phila
delphia , and the fact that he had not
done so was construed into a verifica
tion of the sensational rumor tele
graphed late last night that the sur
geons had determined to insert a spi-
rater this morning into
THE PHESIDENT'S mam traa ,
for the purpose ot draining off from it
the pus that was gathered therein. At
the morning dressing , at 8:30 o'clock ,
the president's temperature was 98.4 ,
his pulse 100 , nnd his respiration 20.
Ho passed the night comfortably ,
sleeping until 3 o'clock this morning
when ho was wakeful for a period * of
two hours , during which time the
I'ULSK HOSE TWKLVE DKGKEKfl , -
but without the marked elevation of
teinpor.itnro which hns characterised
the febrile disturbances before. After
this time he slept until morning. Mr > ro
nourishment was given dining the
night than for several nights past. In
reviewing the case of tlio president
since his arrival at Long Branch , it
may bo said that , in spite of the vari
ous sceptic nccidcnto which have for
several weeks and does still complicate
his cate , ho has certainly not retro
graded ; but , on the contrary , he Im'a , -
made some progress towards. conva.i-i

GEN. SWAIM
came from the president's cottage a
0:30 : o'clock and was asked whac kinc
of a night thu president had.
"He had n good night , " answered
the general ; "as good as Tuesday ,
certainly , and I think oven better.
His condition this morning is very
favorable , perceptibly more so than
yesterday. Ho slept well and sound
ly , iu long stretches ,
should say his sleep was in periods
about two and one-half hours each.
Ho was not wakeful nor restless. Ho
began to sleep about nine o'clock nnd
had refreshing naps up to midnight ,
when ho had few wakeful spells , dur
ing which ho drank water and took
nourisltincnt. About ono o'clock hu
fell into a deep sleep which lasted un
til eight o'clock this morning with but
TWO OH TIIUEE JlllEAKH.
The report is untrue that an opera
tion of spiration is to be , or was to bo
performed this morning ; nothing
of the kind has been mentioned or ov
en though of. There has been
operations and no necessity for ono. "
"This morning's bulletin is de
layed ; has any now complication
arisen ? '
"Not at all. The only reason why
the bulletin is delayed is that the
physicians are holding a long consultation - !
tation for the advisability of making
certain statements in the bulletin. "
This afternoon ho said to thu at
tending surgeon that ho felt better.
Ho also said : "I feel hungry ; may I
have a couple of reed birds ? " Dr.
Bliss will go to New York Ypik this
morning and will return this after ;
noon. Dr. Agnew will remain until :
lie 3omcH back. Dr. Blies said the
president had an excellent night nnd
that hio condition this morning , in
liis opinion , is better than it was yes ]
torday morning. All thu indications ,
iu says , are that thu i
LONIJ BiuNU'i , September 15 , Dr.
Hamilton , who has persistently re
fused while at Elboron to s ly any
thing regarding the condition of the
resident outside of what was report
ed in the bulletins , said in conversa- ;
.ion with a friend , n guest at Elbor-
n , that the chances of recovery are
tow good. There are no active
listurbing elements in the case nor
ndication of any now complications ,
although the
LATTEH IS POSSIBLE.
5o long as the septic condition of the '
lood ia not thoroughly eliminated ,
ind while the aoptio condition contin-
tea , there will necessarily bo fluctua-
ions in pulse , respiration and tem-
oraturo. It will probably be a long
eriod , perhaps live weeks , bqforo this
roublu is entirely removed , and after
hat recovery will bo very rapid nnd
t is my opinion that Air. Uurficld
vill ultimately be as well us before ho o
vus shot , ' . ' Dr. Bliss , on his way to
ho train to Now York , stated b
hat the trip to Now Yoik was on
urely
PElthOKAL UUHINK&H.
The history of the president's con-
lition during the day is so well told
n the olllcial bulletins that there is
ittlu to say in addition. When the
president was in the invalid chair the
line of inclination was gradually
increased until it reached forty do *
Hrccs. The increase was mndo cnro-
fully and was slowly stopped when
the president said :
"I think that will do. Thnt is very
comfortable. "
Ho was cnrnfully observed when rp-
placed" in bed , but there was norisoin
his pulse , respiration or temperature
to indicate thnt ho had suffered from
the change. Every any hereafter will
bo thus exercised until ho can nit up per
fectly. The president's strength is
slowly but perceptibly increasing , Ho
moves his legs nnd feet n grtmt deal
now. The ability and disposition to
use his arms and hands grows every
day , For nn unendurable period ho
has not been nblo to lift to his mouth
n glass of wntor , but now ho often
raises both arms and lies with them
p.isscd over inn head nnd his fingers
interlocked. There is noticeable a
OUT OF THK nODY
particularly at the hips. His voice
can be distinctly heard out in the
ball ) notwithstanding it somewhat
clogged at present by the puruljmt
mucous from the bronchial affection ,
His1 hcarinp and eight are perfect ,
nnd-lho moVement and nppcixranco of

HEALTHY CONDITION.
In fact ends with the
, to-day presi
dent's condition' considerably ad
vanced toward convalescence. Tlio
president 'remained in the chair an
hour to-day. . Nourishment to-day
comprised milk , meat and fruit , the
mqat being chopped fine. During the
afternoon Mrs. Garfield read him a
number of private loiters at his re
quest.

Dr. Bliss , while in Now York to
day , was conducted to the stock exchange -
change and created such a stampede
among the brokers that ho was glad
to escape. Agnew and Bliss , Rock

president is perceptibly improving.

to take
A GLOOMY VIEW
last thing ho said about the president :
was : "I have known cases of phumia
much than the '
worse president's :
in which there was recovery. I once
had a patient who recovered from a
case very much worse than his and
now have strong hopes that ho will ,
but at the same time 1 can't forcet
that there is not on record , to my
knowledge , u single case of phromia
in which the patient's pulse was BO ,
liigh as Guiiield'u has been nil along.
His pulse has averaged day in and
lay out high daily figures , with the
ompcrnturo from 115 to 117 , and I
hink his normal pulse ranges bet ween
r4 nnd 70 , but I hope Jor the best. "

MASON'S CASE.
The case of Sergeant Mason , to
shooting at Guitoau , did not come be
fore the court martial. Its busincs
was confined to routine army matters
ono case bcimr that of a soldier win
\\entto \yhiloguardingtho Whit
House. Considerable doubt exists OF
to whether the military nuthoritiei
will try Masonand the opinion of tin
army officers at the department is tha
he will not bo so tried. It is
almost certain that a military tria
\\ill nut be ordered until civil author
ity oflicially notify the nrm
officials that they do not intend to
move in the matter. Should thocivi"
branch not attempt the trial of Ma
sou , the military authorities woul (
then deal with him as with any other
soldier who had been disobedient to
tl'O orderr.

TERRIBLY BEATEN.
A. Negro So Badly Hurb that
He May Die.
Last evening a promiscuous fight
ccuTod outside thu fair grounds that
nay probably result in thu death of
colored man. Owing to the circuin-
tances under which it occurred it is
linost impossible to got at the
ull facts of thu matter. All that can
10 ascertained is that thu negro
nd n man in firemen's uniform were
con in a hot dispute. Suddenly the
reman struck the negro and fulled
iim to tha ground , Others in a
rowd standing around pounced unon
lie prostrate African , some jumping
pan his stomach and others pound-
ng his head to a jelly. The negro
rns finally left unconscious in a
mdly battered condition , Some
line later ho was lifted
nto a passing wugon and taken to the
ity jail , There Dr. Leisanring was
sailed to BOO him. Ho found the man
mdly gashed about the face , but his
u-incipul injuries were of an internal
liaractor. At a late hour last night
lie nflm was still unconscious. Dr.
joisenring said if the man recovered
t all it would bu by the closest possi-
) lo shave , The man's name cou ;
