LONG BRANCH, Sept. 21.-Mrs.
Garfield is feeling much relieved
since the autopsy, inasmuch as it
resulted in establishing the fact
that the patients death was iDev.
liable. The point Of the ball was
somewhat blunt or in battered
condition, caused by the force with
which it struck the rib, while in
other respects it's original shape
was not altered. Bliss took charge
Of the bullet and sealed it for pres
ervation until the Courts should re-
quire its production. The State Of
New Jersey has issued permit for
the removal of the body.

lifelike appearance and there is no
look of pain upon it. He looks

is not a skeleton, by any means.
