manned alive today, one of them indi-
Gated, through injections of serum.
DR.. Boulin, meeting newspapermen
outside the Hospital of ST. Jean de Dieu,
said:
1.-The final coma which will take the
marshal can be foreseen from a half
hour to three quarters of an hour in adj
vance by acceleTation Of the pulse, which
has been 140 since yesterday.
The patient remains unconscious.
Heavy doses OF serum are being in
jectsd which should permit the marshal
to pass today and perhaps tonight"
An official Gcmmunique issued at 1880
am, said: THE night passed without
incident and the marsbaps condition is
exactly the same" The communicate
was signed by Drs. Boulin and Fontaine
and Prof. Leriche.
The midday communique, signed by
Prof. Leriche and DR.. Boulin, said: 1.-THE
situation remains unchanged"
Three hours later the marshal was
still unconscious and Col. Desmazes said
he was breathing very slowly.
At IL am. yesterday the old soldier,
whose 10th birthday is only a few DAYS
away, lapsed into a deep unconscious
ness which was described by those pres
ent as much more like sleep than the
apparently final stage If an illness which
the marshal has fought with all the
obstinacy of his being.
Since then he lay perfectly still, an
arm twitching occasionally either
through some reflex or q restless mus
cular movement.
