Unofficial bulletin, Executive Mansion
2:l5 p. m.-Much anxiety is exhibited
throughout the city regarding the presidents
condition, and numbers of enquiries have
been made at the mansion throughout the
day. A feeling throughout the country was
similarly manifested by large numbers.
Press correspondents who called at the
white House to receive the 1890 p. m. buile-
tin for their respective papers which they
represented were beseiged by many
with requests for the lates. news. Inquiries
have been received from several Of III
executive. departments. The temperature
and desperation reported in the last bulletin
are generally considered as favorable indi-
cations. His puee, which is given as ll8,
causes considerable uneAsiness 10 tho public
mind. Since the issuing Of
the bulletin IL has been impossible
to confer directly with any of the attending
surgeons. Attorney General MAcNeagh
called short while ago. and as he was
leaving the white house said in reply TO Al
interrogatory, that DR.. Agnew attributed tho
unusually high pulse TO tho weak condition
Of the patient, caused by lhe'nsusea with
which he has been troubled. 1'hu attorney
general eail further that tho surgeons in
formed him there were indications Of pus
formation, Aud that they hoped that they hsd
overcome lho trouble caused by nSusea, and
if further trouble from that source ceased, il
was thought the patient would soon rally
from the bad effects Of the attack he hai
already had. The surgeons took his pulse al
lido p. nl., when it was liz, being a decrease
of beats lsss than before, AT this hour
Private Secretary Brown, who he's just comt
from the surgeons room, says his pulse il
still decreasing.
Unofficial bulletin, Executive Mansion, 4;5(
p. m.-Tho presidents condition remsinl
lbout the same as when reported at 2:15 p
NJ, excepting, perhaps, slight riso il
temperature this evening, The rise, how
ever, is ssid to be no gIanter than heretofore
Tho patient has been nauseauiod once since
the last bulletin was Gent. The surgeons
refer TO tho last Official bulletin Aa abou,
covering the case up TO this hour, with the
exception Of return Of nauseAu above
mentioned He shows no despoaLion TO talk
further on the subject. Tho evening bulletin
is anxioualy awaited by the public at tho
executive mansion. There is q peroepiiblo
feeling Of natural anxiety about the patient
but no actual alarm exists On tho contrary
the present unisyorabla eymptsms Rre con,
sidered but temporary, and II Is thought they
will soon pass away.
