pulse and temperature began to fall and
at the present hour the patients fever

quietly. No reasons are assigned by
attending surgeons for the rea. pesrsn
f the febrile symptoms after an interval
OF more than thiTty-six hours of normal
temperstu, The circumstance, how
ever, causes no particular uneasiness since
the fever has almost subsidized and a
slight fever In the evening has been q

a bout pm. there was recurrence of
the Presidents afternoon fever. The
evening bulletin showed an increase of
pulse, tenn erature and respiration. The
fever subsided shortly after Z o'clock l.
was caused by stoppsse Ia the drainage
tube, which prevented the regular flow
Of pus. As soon as this was ascsrtained
the tube was cleaned and the flow re-
sumed The fever then went down and
the President rested quietly with the con-
tinustion Of very favorable symptoms.
TIE physicians, including Dr.. Hamilton,
continue tonight to express the very
brightest hopes. They regard the crisis
as successfully passed, and think the
President will recover almost beyond

NO THANKS IN TEXAS.
St. Louis, %. The Republican has
the following somewhat remarkable |
special from Palestine, Texas: Mayor
Pickens, of Palestine, says when the gov
ernors decide OF the day, he will issue a |
inviting q general thanks |
giving by the citizens here for the recov-
cry of President Garfield. Lieutenant |
Governor Storey passed through here to-
day, and said if a united cali is made
from the people lie will issue q proc.e-
mRtisn to the whole state, regardless of
the attitude of Governor Roberts. The
mayors Of Galveston and Cameron side
with the governor, and refuee to join in
the Thanksgiving requests of the people.
There is apparently reaction
IN favor of Governor Roberts, as
he public begin 10 think his
position Ia misconstrued. He has
never issued q Thanksgiving pr0clama-
ion during either of his terms as cover
lor, and is evidently conscientiously op-
posed to it, and the truth forces me to
,ay observe among large aud respect
Presidents Injuries have been greatly
Tor three ostensible reasons.
FIRST, TO make great reputation for the
attending physicians second, to make it
APPEAR as al almost mirsculously recov-
cry, attri butsbie principally 10 the Presi-
nt's extraordinary powers; and third,
hat the alleged deception has not been
altogether free from politicsl bearing.
