A More Hopeful Feeling at the
White House.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, 10 am.
The feeling OF suspense which prevailed late
last night among those at the Executive Man.
sion was relieved somewhat by the Official
bulletin issued this morning. This was plainly
observable In the more hopeful expression of
their faces after reading the bulletin. Among
others present when the bulletin came from the
physicians, were Secretary Window, Post.
master General James. Attorney General Mac
veagh, General Swain, Marshal Henry and
Colonel Rockwell. Postmaster General James
particularly seemed more hopeful, and ez-
pressed himself much more hopefully than he
did at late hour last night.
Sec'y Window says he has never lost hope,
but that his anxiety last night at midnight was
intense. He felt then that the case was ex.
tremely critical. but he has always believed that
great vitality would carry him through safely.
IT," he says, "the injuries are to prove fatal,
seems to me that we should have had an in
crease OF the dangerous symptoms OF last
night. instead Of the slight improvement which
we find this morning."
DR.. Agnevv Says While There Is Life
There Is Hope.
The consulting physician, DR.. Agnew, OF
Philadelphia, at ten O'Clock to-day, said that
while the Presidents wound was q dangerous
one. 1t was not necessarily mortal one. He
has not given up by any means. He says while
there is life there is hope.
THE CHANCES AT 1915.
At quarter past ten O'Clock this morning
the Presidents condition was very critical. as
1t has been since ten O'Clock last night. The
physicians base their hope Of recovery
upon the condition Of the pulse. II
the pulse does not rise materially
during the day they will have confidence i'm
bued In them. II the pulse does rise the
grayest fears will be entertained. It is only a
thread that holds life. At any rate, the Prest-
pent Is expected to be worse before he can be
better.
