ishment administered His condition this
morning is about the same as at the same
hour yesterday. Pulse 102, temperature
9s.5, respiration IS.
1890 A. M.-The President enjoyed an
other good nights rest, and, it is thought,
starts out on what bids fair to be another
good day. His stomach still continues to
perform its work satisfactorily, and the
parotid swelling is progressing very ia
vorably. Pulse, temperature and respira-
ton, as compared with yesterday morning,
are about the same. A slight increase in
the frequency of the pulse is thought to be
due to al accumulation of pus in another
portion of the ~glandular swelling, which
was observed this morning by DR.. Bliss,
who made still another incision and re-
leased the pent-up pus. On a~continuance
OF these favorable symptoms, another day
of progress is predicted.
2 P. Mn reply to questions, Colonel
Rockwell said this afternoon: The Presi-
dents condition to-day is about as it was
yesterday. He has fully held his own, but
has not gained perceptibly in strength. No
oAAN Il toSL W YAK 10
pulse shown by the noon bulletin. 1t is
attributed principally to circulation caused
by the cutting Of the parotid swelling this
morning. As long, Col. Rockwell said, as
the gland continues to be a source of almost
constant disturbance we must expect these
fluctuations of the pulse. Since the moo
bulletin, however, the Presidents pulse
has again gone down to ITO. We think he
is doing well.
4 p. M.-There has been no noticeable
change in the Presidents condition this
afternoon, except THAI his pulse has fallen
to l08. His symptoms generally continue
about as favorable as yesterday.
Frfghtful Storm I'm Georgia.

The destruction Of shade trees was very
great. The Georgia Infirmary was wrecked

plaster. The German brig Maria Louisa
had her stern badly mashed, and her rud-
der, bowsprit and jibboom broken. Her
sides were also injured. The steamer City
Of Bridges had a hole punched in her side.
A pilot boat. the Maid of the Mist, came
in collision with . schooner and sank.
Several other tug boats we're injured. A
house was swept down the river, and three
of its occupants MRS. Stokes and her two
~children) drowned. Mr.. Stokes barely
escaped. Engineer Richard Fitzgerald OF
the H. B. Plant was drowned. The loss Of
life among the colored people occupying
little huts OF the rice plantations along
the river banks wa very great. On Tybee

hands of the Coosaw Mining Company,
returning home on Saturday night, got in
the ferry house at Port Royal Ferry, ten
miles from town, for protection. The
house was washed away and several were
drowned. 1t seems on account Of the
storm the ferrymen could not convey the
passengers across the river. The passen-
gers gathered in the ferry house awaiting
an abatement. of the storm, when the house
was carried away by the high tide. Seven
bodies were recovered. To-day the number

ardly act. In view Of these circumstances,
he wanted to know if the guards conduct
should not be investigated. Guiteau says
McGill. intended to kill him, and il it had
not been for the activity he displayed in
defending himself, the matter would have
ended fatally to him (Guiteau). C6rkhill

intelligently, and shows no symptoms Of
insanity. More than this. Guitsau has
learned that the President still lives.
