that in nervous indispositions of this

DIR. Grayson's early announcement
of improvement was borne out in the
afternoon following a consultation be-
tween DIR. Grayson and Drs. E. r. Stitt,
U. S. S. Sterling Ruffin and Francis X.
Dercum of Philadelphia. They verl-
fed Grayson's opinion.

Is the Presidents regular occulist and
is consulted twice yearly.
Consultations of doctors are not to
be taken as any indication of a re-
lapse, it was stated at the White House
since they are to be held each day. Dr.
Grayson declares he will avail himself
OF expert assistance and leave nothing
undone that might expedite recovery
FAMILY STILL PRESENT.
Members of the presidents family
remained constantly at the White
House. They saw. him but little, how
ever, since the injunction of abso-
lute rest and quiet was enforced.
Mrs. Wilson was with her husband
most of the time assisting the two
nurses, one of whom is always on duty.
Rumors of all sorts. originating in
New York, Boston and elsewhere fill
tered to the White House today.
An opinion seemed prevalent in
many quarters that the people of the
country were not being fully informed
Of the presidents condition; that Dr.
Grayson, Secretary Tumulty and 9TH
ers We're holding something back.
There exists no justification for this
view, 1t was declared at the White
House. Bulletins issued twice daily,
IL was asserted, will completely reveal
the state of the presidents health.
This course was decided upon by the
secretary and DR.. Grayson Wednes-
| day. it was said.
! The president. 1t was stated, will of
course be unable to take any part in
tho cabinet meeting, which has been
called for Monday at II a. m. by Sec

conference, the first session of which

Wilson's wishes on most important mat
tiers are well known to Secretary Tu-
multy and others of his official family
and it was stated they will be fol-
| lowed
Grayson, who himself has been
showing the effects of the great re-
sponsibility under which he has been
laboring, appeared more cheerful to-
day and the drawn lines in his face
relaxed. His work has been somewhat
eased up by the presence of other doc
tors and the presidents turn for the
better.

In the second round he faced his
crisis. Jackson, who has hit well
throughout the series, was the first
Sox batsman to face him in this round.
Joe swung hard and the result was a
feeble fly in short center.

He was still fighting when the last

The Tigers scored in the first inning
when Charbourne doubled and Meu-

scored two more in the sixth when
Chadbourne singled, followed by an

can not afford to surrender at this
stage. The principle of constitutional

Beth said that about 5000 strikers
