Buffalo, Sept 12.-Today. the seventh
since the president received the wounds
which now PROSTATE him, opened with
a heavy rain and every indication
pointed to its continuance during the
day. The early morning bulletin, pre-
pared by DR.. Rixey, who remained.
with the patient all night, showed Nc:
kinley had passed comfortable night,
with but little change in pulse and
temperature from last nights official
statement Last night was the first
since the president has been ill that on
ly one person remained with him dur
ing the latter half of the night. DIR.
Rixey, who always remains on duty at
night, has hitherto had the assistance
of one other physician, but last night
he decided, in view of the favorable as
pect of the presidents case, to. stay on.
duty alone. The regular morning con-
sultation of physicians was brief, the
shortest since the president was strick-
en-. and when the doctors came out
their elation was evident in their smil-
ing countenances. DR.. Mynter an
nounced that everything continued
"eminently satisfactory" The president
had piece of toast and a cup of cof-
fee this morning said he, sin addition
to a cup of beef BROTH" will he be
able to sit up soon?" No. not for some
time" answered the doctor. Not un-
til the exterior wound in the abdomen
heals and grows strong and the heart
action grows normal" What Is the
cause of the accelerated pulse 2" .Oh,
can not tell you, but, it is nothing
serious" Doctors Park and Wasdin
confirmed Mynter's statement that the
president this morning had taken solid
food for the first time. DR.. Mann said
the patient could not be doing better.
Why he even asked for a cigar" said
he, but he didn't get it, Hell have
to wait awhile yet before we allow him
to smoke" DR.. McBurney leaves Buff
falo this afternoon. He feels perfectly
safe in going, but expects to return In
a few days.
Secretary Root leaves this afternoon
for Washington and Postmaster Cen
eral Smith tonight. Secretaries Hitch
cock and Wilson remain here in
definitely. kilograms, cables and letters
continue to pour in, but their tone has
changed. The expressions of pain, SYM
pathy and grief have given way to con-
gratulations and thanksgiving. The
joicing at the presidents recovery. The
bullet in his body is scarcely mentioned
now by either the president, his friends
or physicians. AS a factor in the presi-
dents condition it is seemingly ignored.
The concensus of opinion among ply
sicians is that the outer wound will not
be healed tight for several weeks and it
will be advisable for him to remain quiz
city here for about month. They will
take no chances. DIR. McBurney says
the presidents ability to sit up is now
purely question of change but such
move will not be permitted until the
wound is perfectly strong. Abner Nc
kinley is still here, but has not yet been
admitted to his brothers presence. The
doctors say 1t would be safe now for the
president to see an occasional visitor,
but they desire to put off as long as
possible the day when his friends and
relatives will he admitted
