Impression That Physicians Expect
Change for the Worse.
Special From STAFF Correspondent.
MILBURN HOUSE, BUFFA-
LO, N. Y, September I3.-The re-
suit of the noon consultation of the
doctors was the decision to postpone
the bulletin until o'clock, and two
of the doctors left the house. It was
thought that the Presidents condi-
ton would probably show change
for the worse in that time! Secreta-
ries Hitchcock and Wilson thought
it safe to go to lunch. The Presi-
dent is not sleeping now, but is con-
scious and suffers no pain. He is
extremely weak, however, and is not
permitted to talk nor to move.
Scenes About the House.
At o:3o the scene about the Mil
burn residence was one that will live
in the memory of those who wit
messed it as long as life lasts. Down
the streets in every direction people
were massed hundreds deep, while
at the corner where the headquar-
tiers of the press are located corre-
spondents of all the leading journals
of the world were waiting ready to
fash the first news far as the wires
reach, while within the tents the busy
telegraph instruments were clicking
off the sad intelligence. In front
of the residence the blue-coated sol
diers paced with arms at right shoul-
der. All were waiting, waiting al
most breathlessly for the news.
The doctors finished their consul
tation at o:4o. They left the house
together and stopped for a few min

work its old lay, which would
be decided medical victory.
So he was given some toast, cof-
fee and chicken broth. He ate ii
with a relish and his stomach retain
ed it. The doctors thought their ex-
pertinent of giving him solid food
was a decided success. When the
doctors left him after this meal they
were in high feather They declared
that they had made the stomach go
to work, and they did not worry
about anything else
So the day wore on, and there
was no indication of a change in
these conditions until about d
o'clock, when it became noised about
that the Presidents food taken in the
morning had not agreed with him.
DR.. Wasdin denied this. 1t was de-
veloped later that the main trouble
at this time with the President was
with respect to his bowels. He had
not assimilated in the intestines the
solid food he had taken during the
day, and his bowels had not perform
ed their functions. Efforts were
made with the usual remedies to Sc
cure an action, but without avail
only nausea of the patient resulted.
In the early part of the evening,
therefore, the great anxiety was to
get movement Of the bowels.
This was to be merely an incident
compared with what was to follow
before the night was over. Strin-
gent measures were taken to secure
the action. The physicians said the
contents of the stomach must not
be allowed to remain there or seri-
Gus results would follow.
Finally, by the use of calomel and
castor oil, the President had actions
of the bowels. He appeared much
relieved and soon went into doze.
The doctors, thinking the crisis had
passed, went to their homes, but
leaving three on duty. They thought
the only danger at present menacing
the President was the stoppage of
the bowels.
Within two hours after their de-
parture another and far more dan
gerous phase Of the situation pre-
sented itself.
The Presidents heart was weaken
ing. The news flashed over the city
brought the doctors back again with
all speed. In the meantime DIR.
Rixey and DR.. Wasdin had been adj
ministering stimulants to bring up
the Presidents heart.
BY the time the absented doctors
arrived the case was considered so
desperate that a bulletin was issued
expressing grave fears.
Mr.. Abner Mckinley and his FAM
lily were summoned, Secretaries Will
son and Hitchcock were called out of
bed and there was congregation of
all interested persons in the Miiburn
house.
The arrival of these persons fur
nlshed a dramatic scene. All was
quiet and dark about the Milburn
premises. A row of arc electric
lights stretching away in the dis
tance marked Delaware avenue, the
asphalt pavement wet with the rain
storms of the night rejecting the
lights and bespangling the roadway
with reflections of the diamonds that
swung from the electric poles. Far
down the street could be heard the

BUFFALO, n. Y, September IS.
When daylight broke upon Mil
burn house this morning it marked
the ending OF a night of dreadful sus-
pense and terror for the devoted
band OF friends and relatives who
are anxiously lowering about the
Presidents couch. The President
had once during the night approach
ed close to deaths portals. He was
drawn back only by the most stren-
uous efforts of the staff of physicians
who are ministering to him in this
time of danger. The threatened
heart failure is what menaced the
Presidents life. The skillful use of
stimulants, digitalis, strychnine and
finally saline infusion saved his
life from going out like a vanished
spark on this memorable night.
The change for the worse in con-
dltion came quickly and unexpected
ly. 1t followed almost immediately
q change for the better, which had
occurred earlier in the evening. This
see-sawing from danger to safety
and then back again to most immi-
nent danger occupied only a few
hours, but they were hours fraught
with what threatened to be most
tragic circumstances.
Late this afternoon the first note
of uneasiness for several days was
sounded in the Milburn house, fol-
lowing closely and quickly upon a
period that was considered highly
optimistic. The President had been
fed with solid food Thursday morn
ing. The doctors were anxious to
get some good nourishment into his
system in natural way. He want
ed it too, and in the opinion of the
physicians there was no reason why
he should not have it. They thought
1t might serve to put the stomach to

Kept Alive by Artificial Means
MILBURN HOUSE, BUFFA-

o'clock the President is not out of
danger. He is under the influence
of powerful heart stimulants that
thus far are proving effective. The
nourishment has been discontinued,
however, and the President is being
kept alive simply by artificial means
until he reaches stage where he can
retain nourishment, if possible.
