ance OF fever. When asked the cause fol-
the recurrence OF the rigors, DR., Bills said:
ut might be due to local causes, but II so,
they are not manifested. think the re
currence is due to the enfeebled condition
OF the patient The deprayed condition oi
the fluids together With the local sores are
sufficient to produce chill. II is evident
that he has not repaired any during the
past six hours, but he has merely held his
own. Continuing DR.. Bliss said, the Pres
ident has taken nOurishment as usual dur
ing the day. He was cheerful and bright
during the afternoon. With the exception
oi milk punch about twenty minutes
previous to the chill no food had been
given him. Two and half ounces OF de-
tribinated beef blood has beenadministered
by enemata during the morning, and about
three ounces will be administered during
the night. 1t is not probable that another
chill will occur during the night The
dullness OF the lung hus not extended. The
coughing has been very slight to-day, and
was mentioned by Mrs. Garfield Us having
been less than yesterday. The coughing
was renewed with chill. No repair OF
the wound has occurred for three or four
days and no healthy granulatiOns are visi-

The President takes the same notice OF
his condition as he has all along and he
thoroughly understands it. During the

ELBERoN, n. j., September l0.-1:15 A.
M.-The attending surgeons retired before
midnight, at which time everything ap-
peared quiet about the Presidents quarters,
At this hour there is no one to be
seen about the neighborhood excepting the
guard on duty who says that since tue
cottage closed nothing has occurred In tho
house to indicate that there has been any
recurrence Of rigoH,
NEw YoRK, September 10. .@fhe Tribuns's
Long Branch correspondent says the Presi.
dent has been in better spirits, seeming to
be in sympathy with the weather. Mrs.
Garfield attributed the Presidents low con.
ditiOn for several days in part to the effect
Of heavy storm. He.certairly seems TO
have been brighter to-day under the in.
huenCe Of the sun.
At the closing OF the Presidents cottage
the attendants were looking for a quiet
night, US the President almost always slept
some time after the chill occurred. The
cough has been also less troublesome
through the day and evening. There
IL an anxiety nevertheless over the fact that
there Is no gain Of strength upto the time
the evening bulletin was issued. There
was much satisfaction felt both by the sur.
geons and attendants because the chill had
been avoided. A subsequent slight chill
destroyed tho feeling inln great measure,
and the night closed wthrenewed anxiety.
This tendency toward chill may develop
more strongly tomorrow.
