 THE ARRIVAL AT ELBERoN.
 It was just 1:15 D. m. when the waiting crowd at Elberon saw the train Tn the dls tance A guard of soldiers kept them bach from the cottage, but between two and three thousand gathered as close as they could tc the limit, anxious to get view of the Presl dent. As the train was slowly backing down the track On Lincoln avenue and came oppo site the Elberon Hotel Mrs. Garfield was seen to pass from the Presidents car to her own. All that could be seen through the screen of the Presidents compartment was some one moving fan. Drs. Agnew and Bliss and Secretary Brown stood inside the door of the middle car and shook hands with friends who crowded about the car. All were full of encouragement ana salo the President had stood It nicely. Dr. Bliss said the stomach was all right and nutriment was continued as usual. Colonel Corbin said the President had done nobiy. Dr. Agnew said to friend that the Presl- dents chances were greatly increased by the journey. While these matters were belng discussed the first car was unfastened and pushed around to the east of the cottage Mrs. Garfield and companions were assisted out by the Attorney General and Dr. Hamil- ton. ,,,
 Then the Presidents car was pushed around to an awning covered approach, where he was again placed on 8 litter and carried into the cottage by Doctors Bliss and Barnes, General Swain and Colonel Rockwell Colonel Corbin and Warren J. Young. He was car ried up to large chamber on the second floor in the southeast corner and laid on the bed upon which he was carried to the depot in Washington. His bed is placed so that he can see the ocean. After he was quieted down he appeared some what tired from the journey, but not seriously so. He took nour- ishment twice during the afternoon and one enemata was administered. Dr. Hamll- ton stated at D. m. that the pulse was firm and good The doctors will sleep in cot tape near by and Secretary Browns sofa is across near the Elberon.
 SCENES ABOUT THE PATIENTS COTTAGE.
 The vast multitude was silent as the grave until the President was borne from his car, when many fervently ejaculated, God bless him. and men and women wept alike. A guard of twenty soldiers will remain on duty alternately night and day. The soldiers E., oI,1 Gxva h,-r1 1rsal r1s from the cottage and the tents accommodate one hundred men. All the approaches to the hotel are guarded by glistening bayonets.
 THE INCREASE IN PULSE AND TEMPERATURE.
 To-day has been the warmest day known at Long Branch in thirty years. At noon the thermometer reached 94 in the shade and at D. m. it was 96 without 8 breath of air. The remarkably high pulse and temperature of the President stated in the evening bulle- tin issued at Elberon has caused considerable excitement, notwithstanding what was ex- pected of the journey. The fact that he far ed so well on the trip rather unprepared the people for serious reaction in the case. The situation, however, is not considered alarm ing by the physicians. They say good nights rest will overcome the high pulse and temperature, and that, to say the least, 1t could not have been unexpected. Dr. Boyn- ton said tonight that the Presidents high
  and should not cause alarm. Mir. c. o. Rock we'll says he does not think the President is more used up than he has been some nights after a hot day in Washington. One of the White House people who saw the President to-day for the first time in several weeks said he didn't wonder the President was very tired tonight for there was not much left of him anyway. His body was very much at- tenuated, but his face gave evidence of great deal of vitality. The same person says the doctors assure him the President will recov- CT in the bracing air at Long Branch all he has lost.
 THE CABINET MEMBERS AT LONG BRANCH.
 All the Cabinet officers with their wives are at Elberon this evening They arrived this afternoon and have secured rooms at the West End. They drove down to Elberon af- ter dinner and sat for while with Mrs. Gar field at the Presidents outage, after which they went to Elberon. They are very anx- ious about the Presidents condition tonight, as the reaction is somewhat more than ex- pected. It was the intention of m ost of the Cabinet officers to remain only day or two, but until the present issue in the case is settled they will all remain. Attorney Gen. McVeagh was going to order the special train away to- night, but has decided to hold it day or two. There is 8 change in the Presidents condition. Secretary Lincoln said tonight the case looked very unfavorable to him. Secretary Windom builds hope in the state ment of the physicians that there is pros- pect of better things tomorrow.
 THE WATCHERS AT THE BEDSIDE.
 It is an exceedingly difficult thing tonight to get any definite information from the sick room The nurses and physicians and Mrs. Garfield are alone in the cottage with the President, and there is no way of communi- eating with them. Secretary Browns office is 600 yards away and he is to have no word beJ4 *hnra is turn for the worse. Doctors Agnew, Hamilton, Barnes and Woodward are con- pletely inaccessible. Dr. Bliss says the Pres ident is very much tired to night, but he thinks he will rally tomorrow. Dr. Reyburn told Mrs Garfield at 9 o'clock that the pulse had gained little, and that the President was not quite so restless.
