suffering from a bullet wound. The
hourly record told of slight fever
in the morning and a subnormal tenn
perature toward the end of the day.
The pulse rose to 80 in the morning
and again late in the afternoon, but
in the early evening the count fell off.
After inspecting the record for the
day, DR.. John s. Golden said that It
tailed in every respect with condi-
tons which are normal in Col Roose-
velt's case. The period of possible
development of blood poisoning las
still another day to run, and although
the physicians said that change
might occur within an hour at any
time during the next day, they we've
more optimistic last night as to the
outcome than at any previous time.
Possibility of tetanus or "lockjaw,"
always to be reckoned with in the
case of bullets wounds, has still to be
considered, and as the period in which
this might develop, the physicians
said. is six or seven days, Col. Roose-
welt will not be regarded as entirely
out of danger, even should the next
day pass with no signs of blood pois-
oning. DR.. Scurry l.. Terrell said the
colonel could not leave the hospital
safely until the expiration of this per
iod, and for that reason ii was regard
ed as out of the question to consider
the colonel's departure for oyster
Bay before early next week.
All day Mrs. Roosevelt was at the
bedside and. although her husband
iestingly complained that he was the
victim Of machine rule. she said he
must see no one except the members
of his family. Theodore Roosevelt,
Jr.. Miss Ethel Roosevelt and Mrs.
Nicholas I,ongworth talked with their
father from time to time. but even
the family chats were limited to a
few minutes on each occasion. Twice
during the day. however, Mrs. Roose-
welt made exceptions to her rule.
Miss Jane Adams of Hull house, one
of the most active workers for the
progressive party called late in the
afternoon and spent 10 minutes with
Col. Roosevelt.
