Pittsburgh, oct. 2l.-(On board
Roosevelt car), Although eN- Presi-
dent Roosevelt was weary from his
all-day ride from Chicago 10 PITS
burgh. he showed no otner Ill effects
on his arrival here tonignt and the
physicians who are accompanying him
We're confident ihal he would reach
oyster BAY IN almost as good condi-
den 40 wnen he left Mercy hospital
Mrs. Roosevelt and the physicians,
while believing that the colonel had
sufficient strength for the trip, were
concerned as to the outcome when
the time came for his departure and
during the first few hours they watch
ed the patient closely for any signs OF
a setback. AS the day wore on and II
became plain that he was resting com
fortably on the bed in his state room
the tension was relaxed and tonight
breathing easily.
Colonel Roosevelt spent the day In
reading magazines. talking and sleep
ing. As soon as he was brought to
his car in Chicago he went to bed. and
remained there throughout the day.
The hardships OF the journey we're
increased bN several severe iolts,
caused by the imperfect action OF
brake on the colonel's car and once
or twice the train came to such an
abrupt halt that the colonel was tossed
about in his bed. The colonel was
suffering from nervous exhaustion,

the motion OF the train most tiresonc.
The progress of the Roosevelt train
was watched by silent crowds, At
many of the stations people were out
to see the train pass through. They
brought flowers and fruits to the
wounded man, and sent him messages
Of greeting There was no cheering
and the people talked in subducd
tones.
Dr. Alexander Lambert Of New
York who with Dr. Seurry L. Terrell
of Dallas, Tcxr is caring for Colonel
Roosevelt said the wound had blcd
some during the day. but that the
bleeding was merely The result Of the
draining OF the wound and was ar in
dication of the healing process. Bul-
letins We're issued by the physicians
during the day but they merely re-
ported that the colonel was resting
easy and that his condition was un-
changed. Aided by the X-ray exami-
nation made yesterday, pr Lambert
was able to determine the position of
the bullet by an external examination
today. He placed a finger on the pre-
else spot
