EAsTERS STATES
Surgical Operation on the President.
wAsHIyGTos, July 26. - Another
operation was performed on the Presi.
dent by DIR Agpew this morning and q
piece of the fractured eleventh rib. and
one or two small pieces OF splintered
bone cut away. the operation being
made through the incision cut Satur-
day. Unfavorable symptoms last
night and this morning are said by

ticles of bone in the wound.
DIR. HamfIton's Views.
NEW YORK, July 26.-Dr Hamilton
said that the deposit of pus which
caused the recent trouble would have
been opened by the attending physi-
clans. but they thought it was q respon-
sibIe duty aud they sent for Agnew
and him. This complication dDesn't
affect the chance OF recovery very ma
terially, and although similar obstruc
tions and complications may ensue.
there 10 no cause for serious alarm These
pus pouches are not likely to occur ct
the old track of the wound. The spe-
cial cause OF this one was projection of
the fractured rib. The presumption
seems to be from certain indications
that the ball lies in the right lilac
fossa or cavity between the front OF the
hip bone and ribs. which contain small
iutestines. i don't think it entered
the peritonium or liver. although at
first 1t seemed certain that it had.
Every expedient will be used to disin-
feet pus in the wound and render II
innocuous. / still think the chances
for recovery are more than equal, more
especially since have had the oppor
tunity Of seeing him. These are DR.
Hamilten's exact words. He has not
30 much changed as many patients
would under the same circumstances.
Stories of his weakness are groundless.
He could bear half dozen or more
operations like the last, which was like
removing boil. There is no evidence
whatever of pyacmia.
