vomiting was occaSiOned by the col
lection OF phlegm in the throat and
| that 40 serious consequences were
expected to follow The first dis
turbance of the StomachEtOek place
about 10 o'clock last night but it
was not noticed as being of any i'm
portanee. But when it occurred a
second time, about am, it was
then; considered to be very 1nfavor-
able Soon after the second, how
ever, the patient asked for and was
given a quantitySof milk porridge,
which : he retained without Diff
Guilty. Not long after taking this
he partookl of some squirrel. broth,
which @he appeared to relish very
much. : One1Of the attendants upon
the President reported inzthe morn
that the glaHdular affeetation was
decreasing rapidly, and that the
wound was discharging a trihe more
freely than it had been recently.
The attendant said 'aS the discharge
from the gland ceases the flow of
puS from the wound increases.
No noticeable change in the
character of the wound has
yet taken place." DR.. BOyntOn
expressed the opinion that the Pres
ident, Notwithstanding the gastric
disturbance which he experienced
during the night, was somewhat
better than yesterday. Speaking of
the accommodations at Long
Branch the doctor said it would
probably be necessary to have
two or three cottages to accom-
mOdate the patient and those who
would have to accompany him. 1t
is understood to be the intention to
have a guard around the PATIENTS
quarters at Long Branch'Similar to
that which has beenikept about the
Executive Mansion, and admittance
TO the neighborhOod of the Pres
ident's family will only be allowed
by pass. DIR. Boynton does not at
tribute any particular Importance
to the fact of the President having
vomited last night, inasmuch as he
has been taking nouriShment ever
since without difficulty. The doctor
says as it was due solely to the
secretion of phelgm, it will not
materially change the Presidents
general condition. He has been
doing very well since.
1t is said by those intimate with
the family, that Mrs. Garfield is
much pleased with the idea Of the
/ President being conveyed from the
influence of the malariuS atmOs-
phere which surrounds the White
House, to a more healthful locality
Attorney General MacV eigh said
he didn't consider the gastric trou-
bic OF last night would interfere i'll
any manner with the Presidents
removal.
DR.. Reybourn said the President
was as well as could reasonably be
expected. The vomiting which Oc-
Cured last night had entailed no
unfaYOrable results. There had
been more or les trouble at differ
lent times recently from the secre-
ton of phlegm III the throat. he
said, but no particular impoI lance
had been attached thereto, because
the occurrences did not in amy way
affect the stomach. q, vrsN rr q

Last night the President did not
| rest well, and twice during the
night bis stomach was so disJuI bed
that he vomited. Dnringthe day.he
has been better, and has swallowed
the usual quantity of food and re7
! tanned it. His pulse, however, has
been higher than for the two pre-
ceding days. His surgeons do not
think he has lost ground, but he
certainly has not gained since last
nights dispatch. At this hour,
1880, he is quietly sleeping. &
~ THE CAR. ~ ~
The car, which Workmep of the
Pennsylvania passenger shops re-
fitted. is on the way to Washington,
to be used to convey President Gar
field to Long Branch. The seats
were all taken out, and the car thor
oughly renovated. A false top was
put in, a few inches below the roof
of the car, in order to give air an
opportunity to circulate between it
and the roof, so as to keep the car
cool. The partition was taken out
and replaced by folding doors, and
storm doors were added to the plat
form doors. Wire gauZe was fas-
tened on the outside of the car, COM
pletely inclosing the Presidents
apartment, to keep it free from dust.
The inside was hung with heavy
curtains, and Brussels carpet was
laid on the floor. 4 bed was also
placed In position and mattresses
were provided. Two large ice boxes
were added, well-filled with ice.
About forty men were employed on
the work, which was finished in
seven hours. Two of the workmen
accompany the car, which will az
rive in Washington early in the
morning. tE rn
