was universally regarded to be dying man
Saturday night, however, a reaction was estab-
lshcd, rendered possible, it is supposed, by the
stoppage of bleeding. He then entered on the
second stage, and under such conditions that
the physicians, felt justified in entertaining
faint hopes of his recovery. The presence of

now disturbed the system. There were indica-

critical, and the chance of recovery, although
existing. was very slight. BY Tuesday, July 5,
the more alarming symptoms began to disap-

During its progress the physicians succeeded
IN lighting off the dangers incident to this

subsistence Of the fever, while it leaves the pa

most serious stages of the injury, and, as the
President now seems to be steadily gaining

appear, the physicians regard him as practical

The President continues to improve steadily.
He ate heartily such food as the physicians felt
warranted in permitting yesterday. He slept
well and re ted well throughout the day and
last night. This morning there are no traces
of febrile symptoms, which is considered high

mostly of a liquid character. His breakfast
consisted of milk and beef juice. About noon
he partook of toast and coffee. His appetite
continues good, and he would eat much more
if he could get it. Every symptom now Is IA
