had taken place in it. Several packages of
confectionery and peanuts were found crushed

papers. On examining the papers it was found
that one of them was an application for PEN

Boothbay. OF course suspicion Immediately
pointed to Crossman as one of the actors in the
tragedy, though it was not known at that time
whether he was the victim or the assailant.

asked about his wife, whom it had been ascer-

A Favorable Report from the Presidents
Private Secretary.
WASHINGTON, July Il. The following is the
bulletin sent to the Cabinet officers by the Ex-
ecutive Secretary this morning.
), The unfavorable symptoms which made
their appearance yesterday afternoon have en-
tirely subsidized. The President passed very
comfortable and restful night, and this morn
ing his pulse is IS and temperature $685. This
would seem to indicate that the increased
pulse and temperature of last evening was
merely temporary fuctuation, due, as the
surgeons supposed at the time, to some me-
mentary tax upon his nervous system, rather
than to any permanent unfavorable change in
his condition.
(Signed) j. STANLEY BROWN.
Tha Presidents Weakness.
WASHINGTON, July 12.-Dr. Bliss. referring
to reports that the President speaks in strong
voice and moves his arms freely said: 'He does
not speak in strong, clear voice as reported,
but what he says is spoken considerably above
his movements, their vigor has been quite
over-estimated. He does not throw his arms
around like we'll man.
"Then when you speak of his being stron ger
and gaining strength you use the words in a
relative sense?'
Precisely. mean that his voice is re-
markedly clear and his movements remark
ably vigorous for man who has been wound
ed as dangerously as he was. You must re-
collect that he has been in bed nearly nine
days, and it would be absurd to speak of his
being strong otherwise than in relative
sense
Encouraging Reports by the Doctors.
I20 P. M.-Dr. Reyburn, who has Just left
the sick room, says the President is better this
noon. He has taken some rest and noursh-
mont and his temperature has been reduced
to lOO S-lO. We were uneasy about him last
night, as he grew much worse, his temporal
AZURE having greatly increased We consider
him better now.
Surgeon Woodward, one of the attending
physicians says: Yesterday because the
temperature was high everybody outside the
sick room supposed the President was going to
die this morning. Now that the temperature
is lower everybody thinks he is going to live
The truth is that the President is. not vet ont
of danger, but we think that he is going to
live"
The President a Little Despondent.
+ Up to yesterday the President had maintain
ed his courage, and although once or twice
yielding to the fear that he might not live, he
had been remarkably heroic. Yesterday, how
ever, he was much depressed, and this morn
ing he is said to be very weak and much less
cheerful than he has BEEN
Possibly a Double Crime Designed.
1t is said upon good authority that one of

The larger sugar refners today ratified an
agreement to limit of product by closing
down their refneries three days in each weeks
The movement originated at secret meeting,
when committee was selected to canvass and
secure signatures to such an agreement. This
committee reported that they had secured the
assent OF all the large refneries, opposition
coming only from manufacturers who claim
the right to market their sugars on tho most
advantageous terms. The large refineres
claim that they are manufacturing 5000,C0
pounds of refined sugars day or 100000
pounds week, and they now propose to limit
the supply below the demand, and thus create
an artificial famine in the staple.

THE PRESIDENTS WOUND.

Dangerous Effects Of Shred of Cloth.
WASHINGTON, July 12.-Dr Hamilton and
other physicians have suggested that possibly
some slight portion OF President Garfeld's
carried by the bullet into his body, and if that
was the case the danger of Inflammation dur
ing the process OF suppuration would be great
ly increased. A single fibre of wooden
stuff might have been so lodged in sthe wound
by the bullet as to be more troublesome than
the bullet itself. An investigation has been
made and it is believed that no portion of the
clothing of the President was carried into the
wound.
DIR. Reyburn says that the examination has
been made, not with microscope, nor with .
probe, but as carefully as could be without.
and there is reason to believe from it that no
portion of the clothing was carried into the
wound.
would it have been as dangerous as bull
"That depends. Not necessarily. 1t would
not have boon fatal if it struck vital part as
bullet would have been, but under certain
conditions of size and location it would have
increased the inflammation and given us a
great deal of trouble. We do not believe that
a single fibre entered the wound however.
We know that bullet did. With that we are
dealing"

mot until 1t becomes unnecessary, or until
the patient is SO far recovered as to be able to
sustain an OF Grafton without danger. If, it is
in the anter ior wall of the abdomen, it is not
likely to give US any trouble at present."
'.Does it give the President pain where it
is?" ~
"The Presidents body just now is pretty
sore from the head to the toes. His feet and
legs pain him, and his back feels as if broken
in two, while the abdomen is, of course, ten
der.'
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1881-07-13

"All pus coming from the wound probably
comes at the present time from about an inch
from the outer margin. Probably there is no
pus being discharged from the deep track of
the wound. The quantity, therefore, discharg-
ed from the track to the external portion of the
wound is an indication of no moment, but its
quality is an indication of great moment, mas
much as the character of the suppuration in
the deeper portions of the track, which is very
probably occurring, is indicated by the quality
terror portion of the wound. There may DO,
however, slight suppuration of the external
portion of the track, and no suppuration what
ever where the walls of the track are COM
pressed by the external pressure of the viscera
and abdominal walls"
"Haye YOU any idea where the bullet is?
"None. AS Yankee 1 may be good at
guessing, but have not been able to guess at
that"
"What do you think of the increased pulse
and temperature which occurs every after
noon?"
"The pulse and temperature of healthy per-
soma are higher in the afternoon than in the
morning. 1t does not matter whether the
body is in a state of repose or active, the in
crease of both pulse and temperature regular
customary for the President to be active dur
ing the daytime. When in an entirely healthy
condition his pulse would increase. Therefore
the increase reported in the bulletins daily is
not to be regarded as indicating any very unfa-
vorable symptoms unless both should be very
excessive"
what do you think of the Presidents con-
dition generality"
81 regard it very favor able, considering the
nature OF his injury, and each day will add to
his strengths far as can be judged from all re-
ports received. 1t will take time for the Presi-
dent to recover from hurt of this character,
but SO far everything seems to be going on very
satisfactorily"
