TIE END.

ANTICIPATING TIE END.
WHEN WILL TT COME?
Special Dtspateh to The Chicago Tribune.
WAs111SGroS, D. c., Aug. oe7.-It is con-
sidercd probable BY the surgeons that the
Presidents death will be preceded by 4
period extending perhaps over a dozen
hours, during which he will be in co1natose
condition. Weeks ago he thought aloud:
| We are such stun as dreams are made OF.
| And our little life is rounded with a sleep,
| And his thought is to be, it seems, sustained
| by his own experience Gradually disen-
tangling itself from the wrecked body, his
| spirit will pass away silently and gradually,
| so that those VINO watch by his bedside
will scarcely be conscious Of its fight.
There may be, the surgeons think, return
ing geam Of consciousness just before the
end. It is possible, but not probable. 1t Is
gratifying to know that the President is
aware tonight, while still in possession OF
his mental faculties, Of his condition. lie
knows that he Is regarded by his surgeons as
STANDING on THE BRINK OF TIE GRAVE,
and he is ready for the last great change il
it comes. Let it be understood that he is still
hopeful. lie is more hopeful than his surgeons.
lie believes that he still has chance, but he is
prepared, should that chance fade away, for
death. Said DR.. Boynton this morning,
Yes, be knows where he stands. He knows
how desperate-ls the strain on which he is.
lie said to me just now. Don't You think
T
Tell the the TRUTH It is true that you grew
weaker until yesterday at 1 p. m. since then
you have held your own, The President
said, Il do not think it is worth while to
keep up this struggle much longer.' Ger
tain y it is,' said heartily, and he seemed
ENCOURAGED III sY TONE,
although could not put much encourage

''Oh yes. There was really very little for
me to break to her the other night. She has
watched the case since the first day. Moth
ing has been concealed from her, and sha
knew, she must have known, as soon as wa
that the beginning OF the end had come. She
has borne it b1avely, quietly, with Christian
resignation. She is still hopeful, and will be
to the end She is prepared for life or for
death.''
When DR.. Agnew met the President to-day
he took his hand and asked, '1Iow do you
feel to-day, Mr. President? p
Il think feel bettcr,' replied the Presl-
dent.
DR.. Agnew expressed surprise at the unex-
pected vitality Of the patient
AT THE EVENING DRESSING,
