THE PRESIDENT.
Remains About the Same
SLIGHT ATTACKS OF VOMIT-
ING SUNDAY MORNING.
He Will be Taken from the White
House as Soon as Practicable.

1t is thought the President slightly improved
in general condition Saturday as compared
with Friday. The wound remained unehang-
ed, and probably cannot improve materially
until the glandular trouble has entirely sub
sided. The swelling of the parotid gland is
gradually decreasing. The general opinion
among the surgeons appears to be that
change of air will prove beneficial to the
patient and may remove many of the ditficui-
ties under which he is laboring. The allah
sorbing topic at Washington is the contempla-
ted removal of the President from the White
House. Saturday night after consultation
with the attending surgeons Attorney General
MacVeigh made arrangements with the au-
thorities of the Pennsylvania railroad for a
special Car and train, to take the patient to
Long Branch as early this week as practicable.
Yesterday morning the President had two
attacks of vomiting, at which, however, the
physicians profess not to be alarmed. The in
ability of the stomach passed off during the
day, and at late hour last night he was quite
ly sleeping. The attendants says he has lost
no ground. He certainly has gained none'

UNOFFICIAL BULLETINS.


r. P. MI
WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.
The morning bulletin, which mentioned that
the President vomted twice during the night,
created considerable apprehension throughout
the city, and numerous inquiries were made at
the mansion as to the cause OF it. The attending
surgeons explained that the vomiting was oc-
casioned by a collection of phlegm in the
throat, but no serious consequences were ex-
pected to follow The first disturbance was
not noticed as being of any Importance, but
when it occurred the second time 1t was at hrst
considered to be very untavorable. Soon after,
however, the patient asked for and was given
a quantity of milk porridge which was retained
without difficulty. Not long after taking this
he partook of some squirrel broth when ne
appeared to relish very much.
One of the attendants upon the President re-
ported during the morning that The glandulaT
affection was decreasing rapidly, and that the
wound was discharging tride more freely
than it had been recently. 1t appears. said he,
flow of pus from the wound increases. No no.
ticeable change in the character OF the wound
has yet taken place.
DR.. Boynton expressed the opinion that the
President, notwithstanding the gastric disturb
ance experienced during the night, was some
what better than yesterday.
1t is generally conceded by those acquainted
with the facts that the President will be re.
moved between tomorrow and Wednesday,
providing everything is favorable.
Attorney General MacVeagh said this after
noon he did not consider the gastric trouble OF
last night would interfere with the removal.
