: except the fever came on later to-nigt
than last night, and it was not as mark
, ed until about six O'Clock. The ten
, perature through the Gay was normal
and the pulse ranged from 90 to 9s
Shortly after the evening dressing O
the wound, the fever senslhly declined
and the surgeons anticipate favorah
night. The wound acted satisfactoril,
throughout the day, and the discharg
from it has been deemed sufficient an,
found to be healthy. The Presiden
has sensibly gained strength, and hi
appetite is also increasing. As yet
however, he is confined to liquid food
One of the best indications of improve
ment is said by friends attending il
the sick room to be in the strength anC
natural tone of his voice. 1t is now
described by one of those to be "agair
the voice Of Gen. Garfield"
The surgeons have as yet discovered
no symptoms which give them the least
apprehension Of a relapse tomorrow
although the curbstone doctors are pro
phesying one on the theory that to-
morrow is the seventh Gay since the
last, and the trouble is intermittent
DR.. Hamilton, of the Marine Hospi-
tai Service, being asked if the state
nents concerning disagreement of the
doctors at the famous Sunday mornin e
| consultation were true, replied that
"they were false" He says that DR.,
Bliss invited suggestions from the sur
geons present, and that every one had
the fullest opportunity to offer his opin-
ion at that time. DIR. Hamilton depre-
Gated the endless criticism to which the
attending surgeons were subjected, and
said that the profession ought every
where to hold up the hands of those in-
trusted with so great a responsibility.
