ly. Artificial food was administered
in their presence. besides injections
aiming to strengthen the heart, calm
the nerves and regulate circulation.
The doctors expressed the opinion
thenSthat his death might be expected
at any times, and as noon approached
announced his condition to have be-
come worse. He had not been able
to assimilate the artificial nourishment,
his pulse had become more rapid and
his temperature was rising. This in
dicated, 1t was said, some affection
which either mad not been detected by
his physicians or had been kept secret
by them.

in a state of coma and the physicians
issued q bulletin before noon as fol-
lows:
Morgan has failed very rapidly since
yesterday. He Is unconscious; his
temperature is 104h; his purse 140, and
his respiration 104.
