continues to recover He said the Presi-
dent had not improved very much in ap-
pearance, and would not until he gets
somewhere, and gets good air He said
the bullet will not be cut out unless nee
essary, that there is nothing to show that
the ball is yet encysted, and the doctors
don't know whether or not the wound is
healing internally, but indications are it
is doing well:
OUT OF DANGER.
New YORK, Aug. 4-Washington
special: DR.. Hamilton in reply to di-
rect question this morning said: "You
may quote me as saying the Preside1s
will certainly get well. 1 consider him
out of danger. DR.. Hamilton also ex-
pressed opinion there was no malarial in
the patients SYSTEM
''In response to interrogatories relative
to moving him from the Executive man

be determined as he was IN no condition
to be moved. He thought, however,
when the time arrived trip down the
Potomac would be beneficial and hasten
