PRESIDENTS CONDITION..
Another Operation Performed on
Injured Limb-Bone Slightly
Affected.

Washington, Sept. 29.-Secretary
Cortelyou at $3.50 o'clock Sunday after
noon issued the following statements:
"Dr. Newton M. Shaffer, of New
York, joined the presidents physicians
in consultation Sunday morning at 10
o'clock. The increase in local symp-
toms and rise in temperature rem
dered it necessary to make an incision
into the small cavity, exposing the
bone, which was found to be slightly
affected. Thorough drainage is now
established, and the physicians feel
confident that recovery will be unin-
terrupted. The operation was per-
formed by Surgeon General RiXey, as
sisted by DR.. Lung, and in consultation
with Surgeon General O'Reilly and
Doctors Shaffer, Uric and Stitt.
GEORGE B. CORTELYOU,
Secretary to the President"
Another operation was performed
Sunday on the abscess on the left leg of
President Roosevelt. In the former
operations simple needle was used to
relieve the trouble, but on Sunday the
surgeons, with a knife, made an in
cision into the small cavity, exposing
the bone, which was found to be slight
ly affected The presidents case has
been progressing satisfactorily, but it
is believed by the physicians that the
further operation will hasten his com
plete recovery. While none of the doe
tors is willing to be quoted, they give
the most positive assurances that
there is not the least cause for alarm
and say that on the contrary there is
every indication of a speedy recovery
that the area of bone affected is very
slight, and will not result in any inn
pairment of the presidents limb, and
that there is no evidence whatever OF
any matter that would produce blood
poisoning. They confidently expect
that the president will be on his feet
within a reasonable time, and with his
robust constitution to assist recovery
soon will be himself again.
The president stood the operation
very we'll and subsequently expressed
his satisfaction at the successful re-
suit. The physicians take roseate
view of the presidents prospects for
getting out again. He has become
somewhat FESTIVE because of his close
confinement, and the physicians are
considering the advisability of permit
ting him to take a ride in few DAYS
The physicians say the question now
is simply one of the healing of the
wound, and reiterate that this will be
FASTENED by the operation made Sun
day. In the evening DR.. Shaffer, while
he declined to discuss generally the
presidents case, authorized in the
most positive manner the statement
for anxiety or alarm regarding his con
lition, but said on the contrary he could
give every assurance of the belief that
the president would soon recover.
