Reformers Cheerful
In Their Defeat.

Marion Jackson, one of the leaders of
the Men and Religion Forward Move
ment, commented on the result as fol-
lows:
"The nomination of Mr. Woodward
has not altered our belief that God is
in our midst. The will of the majority
expressed at the polls is His will. We
shall cheerfully abide by it.
"We fought MIR. Woodward fairly and
squarely without feeling against him

Condition Normal,
Physicians Pleased.

The coloneIs condition when he
awaked this morning was exceptionally
pleasing to the doctors. With pulse,
temperature and respiration normal.
they believe that danger of infection is
virtually passed Every precaution,
however, will be maintained throughout
the day. If infection develops, it is ex-
pected to manifest itself by tonight.
To be absolutely on the safe side, the
doctors last night injected anti -tetanic
serum to guard against lockjaw. This.
they say, may have accounted for the
slight increase in temperature.
The colonel today eagerly looked for
ward to the coming of Mrs. Roosevelt.
He spoke of her coming frequently to
the doctors, the nurse and the few per-
sons who have been permitted to see
him sine the physicians decreed abso-
lutte quiet for him.
Mr.. Roosevelt was very anxious 10
see Mrs. Roosevelt" said Miss Fitzger-
aid. He talked about her a good deal
and was very particular to have every
thing in the room arranged so it would
be pleasant for her"
The coloners anxiety over his wife's
arrival extended to his clothes. which
he wanted neat and trim to wear when
she arrived
The colonel was delighted over the
visit of his daughter, Mrs. Alice Long
worth, who arrived last night from Gin
cinnati and visited her father. He
talked Of her visit to the nurse and ex-
pressed desire to see her again dur
ing the morning.
As soon as the colonel was fully
awake this morning he was given a
sponge bath. After that he said he was
hungry. The sleep and the bath he
said, both helped his appetite.
THAT last sleep I had and this bath
have given me craving for something
more than l can get here" he told the
nurse. But if you'll just hurry some
breakfast it will DO for the time be-
ing"

Sleeps as Peacefully
AS in Own Home.

Just as peacefully as he is accus-
toned to sleeping in his own room in
his Oyster Bay home, Colonel Roose-
welt spent last night in Mercy hospital,
though the eminent surgeons attend
ing him had changed their opinion that
his hurt was "a mere flesh wound to
describing it as "a serious wound in the
chest"
Hundreds of callers, thousands of Gu
rious, crowded the neighborhood of the
hospital. kilograms of sympathy
poured to the place, flowers were
banked about the coloners room, but
they all had little effect on the con-
dition of the former president. For an
hour or more he read his beloved Nc
Cauley. Then he switched off his read
ing lamp and went to sleep shortly aft
Ell 8 o'clock with the command that his
breakfast in the morning be a large
one, as he was sure to be ravenously

pulse "A.
The colonel slept peacefully most of
the night. He awakened about O'Clock
and asked for a book Explaining to
Nurse Fitzgerald that he had always
been light sleeper, he switched on his
light and began to read. Shortly after
o'clock he turned the light off, saying
that he felt drowsy. A few minutes
later he was sleeping and snoring so
loudly that he was heard from out in
the corridor
His physicians visited him frequent
~ during the night. They were greatly
pleased at his condition The colonel
they said, slept naturally showing no
signs of fever dreaded as the sign of
possible infection from his wound Only
once during the night was there an in
crease in temperature and that was
only one degree above normal. 1t

Wants to Plunge
Back Into Campaign.

Already the confinement has begun
to chafe the eX-president. AS the doc
tors took his temperature and pulse this
morning he chatted about the POSSIBLE
ity of leaving the hospital tomorrow
The colonel wants to plunge into the
campaign again.
AS his temperature was taken, the
colonel chatted pleasantly with the in
terneS who were in the room.
His pulse is better than mine right
now" said one of the internes after he
left the room
The colonel, however even in his
anxiety to leave the hospital and re-
sumo the campaign, did not long forget
the coming of his wife.
ASK the newspaper boys to find out
where Mrs. Roosevelt is" he requested.
He was told that the train had just
reached Englewood and that Mrs.
Roosevelt would be there in few min
utes.
He expressed delight at the an

Prepares Ward
For Wife s Coming.

After his breakfast Colonel Roosevelt
directed preparations that were made
for the coming of Mrs. Roosevelt. At
1880 O'Clock Blanche Welter. the day
nurse, came on. The colonel asked her
TO give most of her time to Mrs. Roose-
velt's room. which adjoins his own.
He sent l. ], Kumbalek, the male
nurse who is helping to care for the
colonel, out for certain articles that
he thought would add to Mrs Roose-
velt's comfort.
DR.. John F. Golden arrived at the
hospital shortly before o'clock. He
was informed by the colonel that Mrs.
Roosevelt must in no way be allowed to
think that the wound was other than
slight. He wanted the physician to in
form her that the colonel was submit
ting to quiet in his rooms only as a
matter of precaution and to satisfy his
friends.
DR.. Terrell was already at the hos
pltai. DR.. John B. Murphy and DR..
Arthur Dean Bevan were late in ar
irving
DR.. Murphy arrived at the hospital
shortly after s O'Clock and prepared for
the consultation with the other doctors.

shooting, was less optimistic
The colonels condition is still
grave" said Martin after he had been
IN the room for few minutes. Il be-
lieve he is improved over yesterday,
however, and is coming along nicely"
Physicians who were in the coloners
room today had to stop their examina-
ton long enough to explain the work
ings Of an oxygen apparatus installed
to keep the air pure.

the coloners comment. 81 wonder what
will come next"
One remarkable telegra m was among
those received today. II came from
New York and was signed Frank

colonel and indicated his willingness to
pay his own expenses. The identity Of
the man Is not known.

Foreign Chemists Spend Day in
Atlanta and Are Guests at
Banquet.

You of the South have the great
laboratory of the world. 1t is rich in
minerals. rich in vegetables and sup
piled with ample water and electric
power to turn million wheels The
South will be the seat OF the worlds
greatest chemical manufacture if she
will turn attention to it."
That is the way the German chemi-
| cal experts look on this section, after a
visit of several days, ending in Atlanta
last night. The party of so tourists
representing the International Con-
gress of Applied Chemistry, left las;
night for Ducktown. Tenn, after a day
spent in visiting fertilizer and cotton
seed oil plants.
Dr.. ii. Buckner, of Dresden, was
one of the most enthusiastic of the
converts to believers in possibilities Of
the South. He is one of the striking
figures in the group. his bushy black
whiskers and broad black hat making
him conspicuous in any party He
spoke of the great development in the
fertilizer business in the South and the
possibilities for developing hundreds of
other products OF which the raw mate
rails lie at our hands. He expressed
surprise that we mine certain raw ma
terials in the South, ship them to Phil
adelphia at high freight rate. and
bring back the finished products at a
still higher rate.
The visitors closed their day in At
anta with dinner at the Capital City
club siven by the Chamber of Com
merce and local chemists. Some of the
addresses were in English and some in
German. Governor Brown and Mayor
VIM were among the guests of honor.
Chemists Entertained.
Sixty-nine OF the leading chemists
gathered at the banquet board of the
Capital City club last night as the
guests of the Chamber of Commerce
and the Georgia section of the Ameri-
can Chemical society, following their
reception during the day by leading
citizens of the community, led by Colo
mel w. l.. Peel. The chemists drank
toasts TO Atlanta-the best city in the

Americans as people of iron wills. and
DR.. Brandeis. the head of the largest

the fullest, perhaps they left much un-
done in cuitiVating the mind

Messages From
European Monarchs.

Colonel Roosevelt was much plea sed
today over the receipt OF kilograms Of
sympathy and congratulations from
King George of England, Emperor WI
liam of Germany and King Alfonso Of
Spain. He dictated replies to these.
DR. Terrell today made a statement
regarding the possible complications
that might result from the wound.
Il would not wish to say at this time
that Colonel Roosevelt is not danger
ously wounded" he said The gun
was foul one and the bullet passed
through too many substances before it
entered the body for the fear Of blood
poisoning not to be imminent
Colonel Roosevelt is one of the most
powerful men l have ever seen laid
out on the operating table There is no
indication at present that the lung has
been pierced. The wound is simple. but
dangerous because of the possibility of
blood poisoning. 1t is largely due TO the
fact OF the colonels unusual chest de-
velopment that he was not fatally
wounded
Among the kilograms received by the
former president was one from Presi-
dent Fallieres OF France.
81 congratulate YOU most sincerely on
having happily escaped from the horri-
BILE attempt made against your person.
and ! pray that you accept my best
wishes for speedy recovery and the
expression of my sympathy" the mes
sage said.

Prince and Princess Of Germany read:
Very anxious about your health.
Hope you will recover"

not be dangerous to his physical con-

His afternoon was not an inactive

Contrary to the advice of the physi
