The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1901-09-10

to be the last of the night and while 1t
was brief, attention was called to the
TACT that the pulse was exactly the
same as this morning, 112, and that the
temperature was eight-tenths OF a degree
lower, We're highly favorable symptoms
Senator Hanna was the last Official
caller at the house. He only stayed
lew minutes, but during that time had a
short interview with DR.. McBurney.
When he came out he declined to talk
further than to say: Everything is all
right and If the improvement continues
l may go home tomorrow
WHAT THE DOCTORS SAY
DR.. Herman -Aynter, one of the con-
sulting physicians of President McKin-
ley, said tonight:
Il have always made it point not to
prognosticate in serious cases, for you
know man proposes and God oisposes. /
consider the presidents case a serious
one and so do not predict but l may
say that at this stage of the occurrence
the condition of the patient is quite re-
markedly favorable and personally L
cannot anticipate anything but recov-
cry"
DR.. Eugene Wasdin, who was with DR..
Mynter, said:
Il, too, am averse to making predic-
lions, but l agree that the presidents
complete and rapid recovery"
DR.. P. M RiXey, one of the president s
attendant physicians and also the pri-
yate physician of the president and Mrs.
Mckinley, said tonight regarding the
distinguished patient:
L am not specialist in abdominal
surgery, but from general knowledge
of gunshot wounds 1 can say that the
only possibility of complication was by
blood poison or peritonitis, and that 1
consider both now a very remote posi-
bility. Peritonitis might set in as a re-
suit of the two apertures in the stomach
beyond the usual standard re-
cord. not the clightest symp-
tom is manifest. There is not the slight
est evidence OF blood-poisoning. AS to the
bullet not yet extracted, I do not be-
lieve we need worry about that. The
presumption is that it is lodged some
where in the muscles of the back. Pur-
suing natural courses it would now be
encrusted and cut off from possible harm.
There will be no attempt to extract the
bullet at present. Neither will there be
any operation for it's removal at present.
see no reason why the president will
not recover rapidly
DR.. M. D. Mann, who has DR.. McBur-
ney as a guest, was seen after the last
consultation tonight. He said:
81 am gratif1ed at the excellent show
markable manner in which the case is
progressing. l feel that although the
danger point is by no means passed, yet
every day that goes by without any I'M
favorable signs is a distinct and decided
gain toward recovery. prefer to wait a
time before making any positive declara-
| lions on the subject, although I expect
the president to get well unless unfavor-
able symptoms develop. AT this time
there are no indications of such symp-
toms, but on the contrary, an entire alb
sence of them.
''The president certainly has had a.
| Comfort a h1a daU hoe
steady Improvement all along the line
There has not been any unfavorabIe
symptoms. No.. l cannot say that all
danger is past, but every hour that
passes diminisheS the chances of trouble
He is very cheerful in manner, a very
good patient, and is easily managed
Everything is progressing smoothly, ia
vorably and nicely"
While DR.. Mann was speaking DR.
McBurney pointed out that violent peri
tonitis might have developed, but his
opinion now was that danger from that
form Of the disease had passed.
