! statement in regard to the patients con-
dition:-
.I am sorry to say Governor Goebel is

| apparently losing strength. He had been
| troubled more or less with nausea and
hiccoughing all morning and it has been
! found necessary to administer hypoder-
mic injections of morphine and atrophine.
.sShould we succeed in restoring his
| stomach to it's normal condition so the
Governor can receive some nourishment
there are hopes for him. Butno one can tell
how long his strength will hold out in his
present condition. The morning the
| Governor was shot he was sick at his
| stomach in the hotel and went to the
| State House without breakfast He has
had practically no nourishment since. All
| in all, the Governors condition is much
worse than at this time yesterday"
