VIZ AsAShSs
At 7:30 o'clock this morning Dr. T. B.
Futcher of Baltimore, who came over TO
relieve DR.. Carter of the watch over Sena-
| tor Hanna, stated that the senator had
| rested quietly through the night, and had
| apparently held his own. He declined to
say that Senator Hanna's condition was i'm
proved.
DR.. Futcher said that Senator Hanna
partly reused at 3 and at $50 O. clock this
morning, when sponge baths were admins
tered to reduce the temperature of the pa
tent At O'Clock, the physician said,
Senator Hanna's temperature was about
105.
Mr.. Dover came out of the sick room
about o'clock this morning and informed
the newspaper men in waiting that Sena-
tOr Hanna was then resting quietly, and
had been sleeping all through the night
since IL O'Clock.
Ground for Hope.
The members of the family were in
formed by the physicians at $50 o'clock
last night that in view Of Senator Hanna's
remarkable rally from the sinking spell
Of the afternoon there was ground for
hope. The news from the sick room from
that time on continued to be more hopeful
The last bulletin of the night was issued
at IL o'clork by the physicians. 1t was as
follows:
AT Ii O'Clock Senator Hanna has reacted
from the chill and depression. Temperature
101: pulse. 12o; respiration. 30. He is rest
ing quietly
DR.. Osier, who came out of the sick room
shortly after the issuance of the bulletin,
said from the indications Senator Hanna
would have a quiet and restful night He
said the patient had been sleeping peace
fully for more than an hour.
DR.. Osler said further: From 3 until 5
o'clock this afternoon there was no hope;
there Is hope now"
The chill which Senator Hanna suffered
according to the physicians, is quite unu-
sual in cases of typhoid. 1t does not neces-
sarfly follow, they said, that another chill
is likely to occur.
A personal message Of inquiry as to Sem
ator Hanna's condition was sent to the
Arlington by President Roosevelt at 11:45
issued by the physicians at II o'clock was
furnished the President, together with the
information that the senator's condition at
midnight was practically the same as be-
fore the chill of the afternoon.
Mr.. Dover stated this morning that the
physicians had administered oxygen in
small quantities during the night At &
o'clock this morning. however, 1T was stated
that no oxygen had been given the senator
for over an hour, since he seemed to breathe
quite freely without the oxygen.
