THE SITUATION LAST NIGHT.
DIR. Bliss said tonight : II have
am l respondent. The President Is
very i'll, but no worse than the circum-
stances justify. 1t we get o sea breeze
l will have something more cheerful to
say"
"Considering the great heat" said
DR.. Keyburn al IL O'Clock, ''and ta-
king into account the President has
not fully recovered from the excite
ment OF the trip, think there Is NO
occasion for alarm. 1t is too early to
say that he is any worse. While he
keeps up 30 well himself there Is great
hope"
Moses Taylor, of New York, called
upon DR.. Bliss to night to know If
he thought it would disturb the
President to have bell of the Episco-
pal church ring to morrow before the
service of prayer in response to the
proclamation Of Governor Ludlow.
Dr. Bliss said he felt sure the Presi-
dent would be glsddened rather than
otherwise TO hear the bell ring, so that
| It's notes will be sent clear and strong, and
| IL is expected that almost every one 10
Elberon will be there. The Rev. DR..
Morton, of St. James Episcopal Church,
PhiladeIphia, will conduct the services.
He Is the guest Of Mrs. George W.
| Childs.
