sent the following tonight:
TO LoueA, Minister TO London:
There is a somewhat more hopeful
feeling, tonight, in regard to the presi-
Jdent. The regular evening bulletin is
more favorable, and good indications
have continued. The pulse is lower,
being Ill, and of better quality. His
mind is entirely clear, and he has
shown positive appetite, asking for
milk toast, a small quantity of which
HE was permitted to eat This is the
frst time for many days that he has
Swallowed anything but liquid food
La slight increase in his respiration is
4only an averse symptom reported at
This hour, 1880 p. n.y.
BLAINE, Sec.
ALL CHEERFUL.
4 WASHINGTON, Aug. 27--There is
Sundoubtedly some improvement in the
#president's condition tonight, as COM
%pared with his condition earlier in the
day, and though it is not much it has
ss8had the effect of somewhat reviving the
#hope of possible recovery. There has
been since night set in an abatement of
II he fever, and the president asked for
ssome milk toast which was prepared
FOR him. He ate it with apparent rel
sfsh and encouraged those around him
Ho hope that it might possibly be the
4eginning of an appetite which would
increase.
n Secretary Blaine said tonight that
he president was certainly better, bat
whether it was mere transitory inn
provement or something that prom
sed improvement, could not be told.
DR.. Boynton said about 9 O'Clock
hat there was perceptible improve
hent-enough to found very slight
hope upon. He thought the desire of
be president for toast might show an
j m provement in the tone of the stom-
ch, and this was favorable sign. In
k3smuch as one thing absolutely neces-
4 Try now, is to build him up and i'm
4 art strength to his system, but this
as impossible until the president
build take and digest nourishment.
