The slight increase in the pulse and tenn
perature OF the President since morning is
attributed by the attending surgeon 10 the
heat OF noon, and to the process OF sup
puration, which is now going on in the
wound near the surface OF the body. This
process, which is accompanied by slight
discharge Of pus, is entirely natural and is
expected, and the necessary result OF the
ioiury at this stage OF the case.

REPORT FOR THE LAST TWENTY FOUR HOURS.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, July So p. NJ
TIE following telegram was sent by the at
tending surgeons TO the consulting surgeons
this afternoon
The Presidents condition has not changed
materially since our telegram TO You yeSter-
day. During the afternoon and evening he
was again troubled with acid eructationS,
and the administration Of nutriment was
again suspended for several hours. One
fourth Of o grain Of mOrpbia was admins
tered hyperdemically at $50 L. NJ, and was
followed at once by tranquil sleep. Towards
midnight, however, he became restless, and
complained a good deal Of muscular Sore
ness in the feet and Of pain in the ankle
| Joints, so that we were on the point OF adj
mipistering an additional anOdyne when
| be fell asleep, and on awakening was so free
| from pain that it was not given. After
| A. NJ. he passed the night TRANQUILITY, sleep
| ing composedly much Of the time. At in
teryals since that hour he has taken an
ounce of albumenized chicken broth, alter
mating with an ounce OF milk, 10 which
teaspOOnfuI of very old and excellent rum
was added All this has been retained, as
well as five grains of sulplate Of quiDia
taken this morning at O'Clock. The yell
| lowish tinge OF the skin mentioned in
our last telegram has sensibly diminished.
| When the antiseptie dressing was renewed
this morning the wound was found to be
discharging a small quantity OF healthy
| looking pus. The reaction accompanying
the establishment OF suppuration is, as
might be expected, marked by slight rise
OF temperature and pulse as compared with
the corresponding hours OF yesterday. This,
| however, we do not regard as unfa-
vorabe under the circumstances, and
should not be surprised il it continued
through this afternoon and were repeated in
the afternoon and evening for several days.
The record since our last telegram is as fol-
lows Yesterday at $50 p. M.-Pulse, 106 (;
temperature, 1902; respiration, 23. This
morning at 8:30-Pulse, sc; temperature,
