10:44 a. M: DIR. Boynton just came
from the presidents chamber and re-
ports the patient in excellent spirits.
He says his undisturbed sleep Last
night greatly rested him, and he has
partaken of increased nourishment this

presidents condition Is plainly visible
on the countenances Of the immediate
attendants Of the sick room, who, dur
ing the period of the fever, which oc-
Cured subsequent to the incision, bore
expressions Of anxiety and looked care
worn. This morning the same persons
may be seen about the house bearing
cheerful countenances and exhibiting
what truth there was in the statement.
Mrs. Garfield has suffered extremely
from the effects of the strain upon her
mind during the past few days. DIR.

Her husbands present condition is
very encouraging to her. =

Pros and Cons OF the PresIdents Case
New York; July, 27.-The Herald,
which has within q few days published
broadsides of adverse criticism on
the presidents condition and treat

as the doctors, where they have made

DR.. Hammond, formerly surgeon
general Of the United States army said
in an interview printed in the evening
Post, that the preliminary signs Of
phGmia were mistakable In his opin-

typhoid state which is ono of the stages
of q ph@mia condition.
The Times has careful statement
of the presidents condition, evidently
compiled from the best authorities in
attendance, upon, in and around the
presidents bedside, and reaffirms it's
conclusion that he is quite as well as
before the relapse and in a fair way to
get well. All the physicians in atten-
dance on the president, including the
two consulting surgeons, are firm in
the belief that their patient will get
well, unless some extraordinary COM
plication arises, Of which there is no
probability. All that the physicians
are willing to say Is that to-day the
president is on better and safer plane
than he has been since the shooting
