| MILBURN HOUSE, BUFFALO, N Y,
| September 9.-President Mckinley has gone
/ through the early part of the crisis In his
case without material sacrifice of strength
| or the appearance of dangerous symptoms.
| There was an unsatisfactory note in the
| first bulletin of the morning in the refer
| ence to the restless night passed by the
| President. Some consolation was drawn
| from the statement that the sufferer had
slept fairly well, but the general effect Of
the bulletin was to break down some Of
the prevailing optimism and create fresh
anxiety as to immediate developments in
the case The circumstances of the pre-
vious day had been favorable and the
popular anticipation was that the tidings
from the sick room would continue to be
encouraging.
The bulletin created a feeling of uneasf-
ness that seemed to be shared by all who
read it. 1t was known that the patient
was well within the crisis and the fear
was created that the restlessness was the
forerunner Of some of the dire things
feared as possible results of the wounds.
1t was also pointed out that it was one OF
the few unfavorable things said by the Of
hcial bulletins, and several disturbing
rumors were put in circulation.
General Condition Unchanged
The general state of the sufferer remains
unchanged, however. A slight decline in
temperature and inclination of the
pulse and respiration to return toward
normal conditions were favorable indica-
tions, and the official statement gave an
assurance that no unfavorable symptoms
had shown themselves. The doctors stIll
incline to a very hopeful view of the case
and insist that at present 1t does not pre-
sent single unsatisfactory feature They
say that several complications fraught with
serious consequences may develop, but they
do not now anticipate that any of them
will appear. The President holds his own
so far in the crucial hours.
