Long Branch. Sept. 9.-The immedi-
ate attendants Of the president exhibit q
more decided opinion that tho improve
ment is likely to be permanent than per-

swer to inquiries, said, in substance. that
the outlook for the presidents case is
very encouraging. and although there is

we hope that what has been gained will
be maintained and added to, but thedif.
ficulty is the presidents blood is in an
unhealthy condition, and until he recu.
perates sufficiently to overcome any bad
effects of blood poisoning it is unsafe tc
