The Bullet Definitely Located.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, Aug
ust 1st-11:45 A. M.-The President is passing
a quiet and comfortable day. Under the
supervision of the attending surgeons,
Professors Bell and fainter this morn
ing made another application to the patients
body of the electrical apparatus known as the
induction balance, with view of completing
the tests Of Saturday, which were not en-
tirely conclusive, and of ascertaining def
nitely and certainly, if possible, the location
of the ball. Professors Bell and fainter
have been almost constantly engaged two
weeks in experiments with this induction
balance. They have also made many i'm

They tried this improved apparatus upon the
Presidents body for the first time last Satur-
day, and although it indicated fairly the loca-
ton of the ball, il was afterwards found to be
slightly out of adjustment, and the expert
ment was not regarded as conclusive. The
result Of this mornings test, however. is en-
terely satisfactory both to Professors Bell and
fainter, and to the attending surgeons. 1t
is now unanimously agreed that the location
OF the ball has been ascertained with reason
able exactness and certainty, and that it lies,
as heretofore stated. in the front wall Of the
abdomen, Immediately over the groin, about
five inches below and to the right of the naval.
WASHINGTON, August 1st-The expert
ments this morning were repeated several
times, and were made by Professors Bell and
fainter Independently, so as to guard as far
as possible against errors arising from the
faulty prescription of single individual, or
from one persons mistaken judgment on the
comparative intensity of the sounds In
every instance, however, when the small
disks attached to the III achine were placed in
such a position on the patients body as indi.
Gated the location of the black or blue spot
which appeared on the lower right side of
the abdomen soon after the President was
shot, the listener at the microphone said he
perceived the signs of disturbance. 1t made
no difference whether the eXparimentors
could see the disk or not. Whenever they
were placed IN that particular position, they
became instantly aware Of the fact, and an
nounced it. The experiments were varied
and continued, until all were convinced that
the bullet had been found, or had, at least,
been located. The ball must be within q
inches of the surface. The surgeons do not
intend to remove the ball at present.
