Heart Begins To
Weaken

WEST ORANGE. N. j., Oct. IL
R,-Dr. Hubert S. Howe. announced
shortly after 3 p. m. that the
depth OF MI. Edison's coma Is in
creasing"
Mr.. Edison has developed q
gradual acceleration Of his pulse
and rate OF respiration" DR.. Howe
said.
Pulse Poor
DR.. Howe, who for the first time
Amained all night with his patient,
issued his first bulletin at $3.50 a.
m. today, an hour earlier than had
been his custom. He indicated that
from now on he probably would
issue a bulletin every three hours:
MI. Edison has remained al
night" the first bulletin read, IN
q condition which has all the ap-
pearance Of normal sleep. He is
breathing quietly and easily. HIS
pulse, however, Is Jor.'
DR.. Howe indicated this morning
he would stay throughout the day
at the Edison home. Previously ne
made two calls a day, one IN n
morning and one In the evening.
Family Present
The reference in his first bulletin
today to Edison's pulse being poorly
was considered Of significance be-
cause 1t is the inventors strong
heart which has sustained him 80
long despite the poison which his
weakened system has been unable
to eliminate.
All the members Of Edison's I'M
mediate family were at the home
TO-DAY or within easy call in case
Of any emergency. Although DR..
Howe spoke in his bulletin OF Ed
sons apparently normal sleep ne
made It clear in speaking with re-
porters that this condition was In
reality only a continuation Of the
coma from which the inventor Is
expected to slip quietly into death.
