Special to the SENTINEL


morning.
CHICAGO, Sept. "a Washington special
says: The restlessness referred to in the
morning bulletin was not such as to seri-
ously affect the comfort of the President.
1t was what the doctors call a local effect,
and not an indication of any imminent
change in the Presidents condition. His
pulse and temperature were not much af-
fected. At II o'clock his pulse was 107
only, while his temperature and respira-
ton were normal. The patient did not
sleep as we'll as he usually does before mid
night. His physicians do not seem to ex-
plain this beyond the statement that it was
not due to any material change in the case.
After l O'Clock the President slept as well
as during the same hours on the night pre-
vious, or on any night this week. At the
morning examination his general condition
was reported to have been fully as favora-
BILE as yesterday at the same hour. The
morning dressing of the wound and gland
revealed no change in the former, and con-
tinued good progress in the latter. Satur-
days have come to be looked upon as I'M
lucky days in this case. Nothing unusual
has thus far arisen to-day. and if nothing
alarming does arise during the day, a very
important point will be considered to have
been gained.
At 9 O'Clock DR.. Barnes stated that there
had been no unfayorable Developments.
DR.. Hamilton yesterday told Col. Crook
that the President had not much chance
to live in an atmosphere like that of the
Potomac flats carried by a southerly wind
daily to the windows OF his room. The
necessity of removal seems an urgent one
to the attending surgeons. This morning
DR.. Hamilton told a friend he believed the
Presidents symptoms have assumed q
slightly intermittent character the past
few days. Wednesday was brighter, Thurs
day less so, yesterday was a good day, and
this morning he seemed weaker and more
languid. He thought the President ought
not to remain an hour longer than neces-
sary, and would vote for his speedy re-
moval.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-The parotid abb
scess has found another opening into the
nostrils, and is discharging through this
new channel. The doctors now no longer
regard the parotid trouble as forming a
serious feature in the case. The swelling
is diminishing, but there are as yet no
signs OF. healing. The buHet wound is do
ing well. The flow Of pus has decreased
and the wound is healing from the bottom,
as has been ascertained from the probing.
As soon as the Presidents strength will
permit, he will be removed to Long Branch.
A car specially arranged for his accommo-
dation is already in readiness.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, Sept. 9.-Noon-
The condition Of the President has not
changed materially since yesterday, al
though it was thought this morning he
was a little weaker and less animated.
There seems to be a growing impression
among the attendants that he is beginning
to be unfavorably affected by the weather
and the malarious air from the Potomac
fiat. A rank vegetation which is fortified
by city sewerage and stimulated by abun-
dant water and hot sunshine, covers these
fats during the Summer. This Is now be-
ginning to dry, and since yesterday morn
ing q faint malarious mist has hung over
the river from the water front Of the Ex-
ecutive Mansion to Long Bridge. Almost
every man who has been recently engaged
in the work of improving the channel Of
the river has been more or less sick from
malaria.
1890 p. M.-The Presidents condition
has not materially changed since morning.
Pulse 104, temperature 1874, respiration 10.

HARRIsBuRe Pa Sept. 8, I881-To Hon.
James G. Blaine. Secretary Of State, WASH

proclamation, an opportunity to assemble
at the places Of worship IN Saturday be-
tween the hours Of 10 A. NJ. and noon, to
make public prayer for the restoration OF
the President to health, strength and the
discharge of his official duties. Would ii

ton from your department to undertake
to secure concurrent action in all States.

day not too near. (Signed),

DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON I'd.
o., Sept. 3.-To His Excellency Governor
Hoyt, Harrisburg, Pa Proclamations are
so essentially acts OF the Supreme Execu-
tive power that the Cabinet has not felt au-
thorized to assume its exercise OF the OBJ
ject which you propose, heartily as they
sympathize with it and earnestly as they
desire it, but it is entirely competent for
your Excellency to communicate with the
Executives Of other States and promptly
accomplish the desired end. ~(Signed,)

the President Of the Pennsylvania Rail- |
road Company, asking If a special train Of
six cars could be had over that road for the
use Of the President. and whether arrange
ments could be made for a safe and speedy
