PRESIDENT WILSON l. HAS GOOD NIGHT
Appetite Is Improving and He Sleeps Better, Says
 Dr. GraysOn

Washington, October, 5.
 The favorable trend of Presi-
 dent Wilson's condition contin-
 ued today and there were indi-
 cations that those attending
 him thought he might be defi-
 nitely on the road to recovery.
 After the best nights sleep he has had
 since he was taken i'll 10 days ago, the
 President was in such good spirits that
 Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson, his per-
 sonal physician. had difficulty in per-
 suading him to remain in bed. The phy-
 sician insisted on this point however
 and indicated he had no intention of
 permitting the patient to get on his feet
 until the change in his condition was
 more decisive.
 Although the days bulletin did not record any marked improvement, it con-
 tained details of the Presidents general condition which Dr. Grayson seemed tc regard as hopefus signs It was issued
 at Il a n1., and said;
 BULLETIN White House, October 5, 1919, II a. m 'The President had a very good night, and if there is any change in his condi- ton it is favorable. His appetite is im-
 proving and he is sleeping better Dr. Grapson at 10 o'clock tonight issued the following bulletin:
 "The President had a restful and fairly comfortable day"
 (signed) Grayson y That MT. Wilson was able to eat and
 sleep with more regularity was considered particularly promising since they are the two most important requisites for the cure of the complications which followed his attack of nervous exhaustion. For the first time since he became ill the President now has rested easily for two consecutive nights. and the result was reflected as he awsoke this morning in desire to get back to his desk When Dr. Grayson forbade that. Mir. Wilson Is said to have asked that a stenographer be called so that he could dictate some letters, but his physician headed off the request by reminding the President that l it was Sunday and he was a good Pres byterian.
 His physician said he finally accepted the inevitable cheerfully, saving he would | try to be good patient. It was declared his mind was very alert, and that he chatted and joked with members of his
 family about his Illness, seeming dissat- | isfied only with his confinement. l Many more callers inquired about the Presidents condition at the executive l offices during the day while the flood of solicitious messages continued to come | in by wire from all parts of the world Among those who sent in their cards was Sir Robert Borden, the Canadian premier.

Capital, Labor and The Public
 WiH Sit Down For Conference
 On Industrial Problems Today
Opposition of the Railroad
 Unions Only Discordant Note Thus Far-Farmers and Negroes Dissatisfied

Washington, October 5 Capital, labor and the public will sit down tomorrow in a conference called by President Wilson to consider industrial roblems arising out of recon struction.
 A basis of CO., o-operation between the great elements is the life of the nation which will go far ltoward eliminating strikes and other social unrest, is hoped for as result of the deliberations.
 The only discordant note so far has been the opposition of the railroad unions to the basis of representation offered them. Acting as unit the transporta- ton organizations are considering com promise proposal offered by Director General Hines, acting for the President. which would allow the four brotherhoods one delegate each, with the other unoins to be represented by the delegates ac- credited to the American Federation of Labor with which they are affiliated. Tn addition. B. M. Jewell, acting president of the Federation's Railway Employes department, has been named one of the delegates representing the public.
 There was no indication today whether the proposal would be accepted. Timothy Shea of the firemen, said he had not heard from all the unions. so that the matter still was unsettled. Nor would he indicate whether those which had replied had accepted the proposal There were reports, however, that the transportation workers would remain out of the confer ence unless all unions were given one del- egate each, as they asked President Lee Of the trainmen and President sheppard of the conductors will arrive here tonor- row when the proposal will be further discussed.
 The length Of the conference is asmat- ter of uncertainty and will depend on the progress made by the delegates in formu- lating a programme to guide industry until normal conditions are restored.
