NOT very GOOD

at all good, according to q statement
issued by DR.. Cary T. Grayson, his

'The President had a fairly good
night but his condition is not at all
good this morning."
DR.. Grsyson, has called into con-
sultation, DR.. F. x. Dercun, Of Phile-
delphia, nerve specialist. Later, he
may call DR.. George De Schweimitz,
an eve specialist, also of PHILADELPHIA,
The President is in a highly nervous
condition, 1t was stated although no
alarming symptoms have developed.
His friends and physicians have great
difficulty in keeping him away from
work.
DR.. Grayson has also been In con-
ference with DR.. Z. r. Stitt and DR.,
Dennis. both of the navy, 1t was
learned. 10
DIR. Grayson emphasized that he was
calling in assistance as a precautionary
measure and as help to him. His
treatment of the president requires
more than one man Is able to give. Il
was stated.
In treating cases of this character
1T was pointed out, the condition of
the patient may vary from day to day
without affecting the general progress
toward recovery.
The Presidents physical syrnp oms
are such as to lead DR.. Grayson to be-
lieve he Is well on the road to recoy-
cry, in spite of the fact that his condi-
tion this morning is not so good as it
has been. 1t was made plain at the
White House.
No plan has been made for the Presi-
dent to seek rest In a more secluded
spot, although 1t has been hinted that
he can not avoid some reaction from
the political battle in the senate IL he
remains here. Grayson stated definite
ly that Wilson will not leave the White
House this week and doubted II he will
do so later.
Complete rest is to be enforced and
every effort will be made to keen all
matters from coming to the attention
of the President.

New York Oct. 2.-The worlds
greatest democracy today welcomed
royalty's greatest democrat - Albert
of the Belgians.
For the first time In history the king
trod American soil when Albert
stepped ashore from the cruiser George
Washington in Hoboken, N j., at noon
and the nation that wrote the AR
gonne' and the "Meuse'' before the
scrolls of time gave the man of Ieige
and Antwerp a greeting fit for a king.
American officia ldom had sought to
give the ceremony a certain decorum.
but the tens of thousands float and
ashore, who witnessed the coming of
the king, his consort and their heir,
despite heavy rain would have none
of 1t. They were determined to show
their admiration for the soldier mon
arch in their own way and they did.
The roar of welcome that went up
from their throats and from the whis-
ties and sirens in the bay and river,
carried no spirit of hail to the king"
but instead typically American, man
to-man "howdy Albert"
State department orders prevented
the royal party's progress from Sandy
Hook, where the George Washington
anchored during the night, to the army
piers in Hoboken from being the same
triumphal entry that was accorded
General Tershing. No private craft
were permitted to go down the bay and
the noisy welcome they furnished was
reserved until the George Washington
neared the statue of liberty. Then
they made up for the opportunity de-
MED them before aided by the vast
crowds on shore
The George Washington broke out
the Belgian flag from the main mast
and, as escorted by destroyers and
seaplanes, she passed through the mar
Rows the emblem was greeted with "a
sa lutte Of u guns from Forts Hamil-
ton and Wadsworth.
The king and queen stood on the
bridge Of the George Washington as
she warped into her dock The former
swept the crowd through field glasses
and the queen busily snapped pictures
with small camera. The steamer
was docked on the north side of the
pier, the berth of the Imperator, which
was moved to the southside of pier
