Ing him and their opinion, as ex-
pressed by the night bulletin, was IA

animation did not disclose anything
of an unfavorabIe nature. They be-
iieved that the president was In a
serious condition, and that the crisis
would not be passed for 48 hours, from
last night. The professional men and
physicians hoped for the best, but
until the case has run through the
doubtful days they will not be reas-
sured. The night, like it's predeces-
sor, was very cold. The weather con-
ditions were regarded as very favor

WERE RECEIVED.
Buffalo, Sept. 9.-Through the
quiet, peaceful Sabbath every word
that came from the big Yine-clad
house IN Delaware avenue, In which
the stricken chief magistrate of the
nation lies stricken, was reassuring.
and last night the chances Of his re-
oovery were so greatly improved that
all of those who had kept the patient
vigil at his bedside believed strongly
that his life will be spared. The de-
velopments OF Saturday night and
Sunday were dreaded but hour after
hour passed and the distinguished pa
tient showed, as far as known by
those persons in attendance, not an
Gnfavorable symptom. Five times dur.
ing the day the eminent doctors and
surgeons assembled for consultation
and each time the verdict was unan..
nous that what change had occurred
was for the better. Not the slightest
promonitory symptom OF peritonitis
appeared, and the fresh hope born
with the morning grew stronger and
stronger as the day advanced until
toward evening the confidence ey
pressed in the belief of the presidents

PRESIDENT, the members of the cabi
Let and other distinguished visitors
who called, came away with lighter
hearts and buoyant tread and gave
expression to the most optimistic
sentiments.
THOUSANDS CAME
FOR INFORMATION.
The encouraging news spread over
the exposition city with great rapid
ity and thousands came in carriages,
In street cars and on foot, to learn
for themselves of the faith and con.
hdence that existed about the Milburn
house. The brightness Of the day,
with its cool, bracing atmosphere,

And the newspaper men, many OF
whom have been at their posts for
~ hours continuously, remained
steadfastly throughout the day in the
httle white-walled tents across the
street from the house where the
country's patient lays and sent the
news to be flashed over land and sea.
And yet, despite all this optimism.
