RAPIDLY APPROACHING THE SAFETY LIN

" RAPIDLY APPROACHING THE SAFETY LINE"
EXECUTIVE MANSION, July 1910 u. NJ
The history Of the Presidents case to-day
is almost duplication Of the record OF yea
ierday. There has been further reduction
OF two tenths in the maximum temperature
for the tWenty.four hours. which in
dicates a continued abatement Of the af-
ternOon fever, and there has also been q
steady Improvement in the general Symp-
toms. The patient ate q small quantity
OF roast beef this afternoon, swallowing
both Juice and fibre, and took the usual
allowances OF toast, mix, meat extract, and
wine. AT 10 O'Clock tonight he is sleeping
quietly, after hypOdermic Injection OF
one eighth OF grain Of mOrphia. The
discharge from the wound continues 10 be
normal in quantity and appearance, and
from the fact that the drainage tube cannot
be pushed further than three inches and a
bali into the wound without encOuntering
resistance, It is inferred that the pus alt
comes from that part OF The BULLETS track
which lies between the external surface OF
the body and the ribs, and that the depths
OF the wound have closed.
DR.. ReybuTn, upon being asked to night
whether be regarded the President 0s out
Of danger, said: 81 should hardly like yet
to pronounce him safe, but be is rapidly
approaching the safety line. There is not
the slightest indication Of pyaemia. The
danger OF secondary hemorrhage has almost
entirely passed. The fever has so far abated
as to nc apparent only for few hours IN
the afternoon and evening, and the patient
Is making steady progress towards conva.
lescence."
The Executive Mansion has presented a
quiet and almost deserted appearance TO-
day, callers being for the most part news
paper correspondents and reporters. Men,
bers OF the Cabinet, with one or two eX-
ceptiOns, have gone either down the river
or TO Deer Park to escape the heat and TO
recover from the pro.trating anxiety Of the
past two weeks.
