a moment at 10:40 in the forenoon
and his announcement that Mrs.
Mckinley would probably go
driving in the afternoon, as she
afterward did, was sufficient to
set at rest most of the fears con-
corning her condition after the
night. Mr.. Cortelyou said IN
addition that Mrs. Mckinley was
showing much courage.
Physicians here who discuss
the case are careful. even in view
of the favorable outlook, to say
that it will be at least five days
from the time of the shooting
before it will be possible to say
positively that, barring any acci-
dent, the President will recover.
All that can be said is, in a
word, that after two days there
is nota single unfavorable symp-
tom and not the slightest indica-
ton of blood poisoning or peri
tonitis, the two deadly enemies
that are most feared.

Important Events of an Anxious Day
With Hopeful Conditions
Prevailing.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Sept. g.
Sunday, for the first time since
the shooting. the President en-
joyed natural sleep. While he
was still more or less under the
influence of the anaesthetic his
slumber was restless and dis
turbed and did him little real
good. Between 9 and o'clock
be had the solace of natur-
al slumber for about four hours,
and the physicians stated unof-
ficially that his sleep had been
"quiet and reposeful," and had
helped the sufferer a great deal.
Yesterday, also for the first time,
nourishment was administered.
1t was in liquid. form and was in
jected hypodermically, to avoid
the possibility of irritating the
walls of the stomach. The ex-
terror wound was dressed in the
morning, and is progressing sat-
isfactorily.

WEDNESDAY-BETTER.

BUFFALO, N. z, Sept. IL
President Mckinley continues TO
improve each day. The assur-
ances of his recovery were
stronger today than on any pre-
ceeding one. About the only
danger now 10 be feared is from
blood poisoning, and that is re-
garded as remote. The physi-
clans say that if no unexpected
complications occur their patient
may be returned to Washington
in three weeks.
Of all those who have cut out
the element of uncertainty from
their calculations, none is more
confident in this respect than the
President. He not only feels
sure he is going to get well, but
in his own mind seems TO have
an impression that he is about
well already. He wants to read
the newspapers; he wants to sit
up. Already he is discussing
his future plans. He said that
he wishes to 60 from here direct
to Washington just as soon as he
is able to travel, and he asked
the doctors how soon that would
be. Their answers did not fully
lift the veil for him on this SUBJ
ject. They told him in SUBJ
stance that as yet it was a little
too early to tell.
Mrs. Mckinley took her Gus
tomary drive yesterday after
noon. AS on other days when
she has gone out, her companion
was Mrs. McWilliams, her cous-
in. Her drive lasted an hour,
and when the carriage came
back, Mrs. Mckinley was observ-
ed to be talking with Mrs. Nc
Williams and acting in a manner
which seemed to indicate quite
an improvementin in her condition.
Indiana day at the exposition
set for Friday of this week was
indefinitely postponed when the
President was shot, but the
original programme was restor
ed at the suggestion of Senator
Fairbanks, who says such a
course would not have been
thought of were there any doubt
of the Presidents recovery.
The exposition has suffered Sc
verely in attendance since the
tragedy, and the managers are
now organizing for great
thanksgiving celebration, which
they expect not only to prove a
great card for the fair, but
which they hope will be made a
day of national rejoicing.

WOUND REOpENED

BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. IL
Last nights bulletin says:
1870 P. M. Tuesday.-The
condition of the President is un-
changed in all important partic-
ulars. His temperature is 1905;
pulse, l IA; respiration,28 When
the operation was done on Fri
day last it was noted that the
bullet had carried with it short
distance beneath the SKIN a frag-
ment of the Presidents coat.
This foreign material was. of
course, removed, but a slight ir-
ritation of the tissues was pro-
duced. the evidence of which ap-
peared only tonight. 1t has
been necessary on account of this
slight disturbance to remove
few stitches and partially open
the skin wound. This incident
cannot give rise to other compli-
cations, but it is communicated
to the public, as the surgeons in
attendance wish to make their
bulletins entirely frank. In con-
sequence of this separation of
the edges of the surface wound
the healing of the same will be
somewhat delayed. The Presi-
dent is now well enough to be-
gin to take nourishment by the
mouth in the form of pure beef

he fell a negro waiter. John
Harper, leaped upon him. Sol
diers of the United States

sprang upon them and he was
surrounded by asquad of exposi-
ton police and secret service
detectives. Detective Gala
CHER seized Czolgosz's hand, tore
away the handkerchief, and took
the revolver.
The ar illerymen, seeing the
revolver in GalIagher's hand,
rushed at him and handled him
rather roughly. Meanwhile Ire

would-be assassin, endeavoring
to shield him from the attacks
of the infuriated artillerymen and
the blows of the policemen's
clubs.
Supported by Detective Geary
and President Milburn. and sur
rounded by Secretary George B.
Cortelyou and half a dozen expo
sition officials, the President was
assisted to a chair. His face was
white, but he made no outcry.
Soon after the shooting
Czolgosz was asked why he shot
the president. He said:

my duty"
The president sank back with
one hand holding his abdomen,
the other fumbling at his breast.
His eyes were open and he was
clearly conscious of all that had
transpired. He looked up into
President Milburn's face and
gasped: '.Cortelyou." The
presidents secretary bent over
