T ' "THE B VOLUME 10. NUMBER 149. TEDDY” T0 LEAVE HOSPITAL MONDAY Physicians Say He Can Go to Oyster Bay But Must Remain Abso- * lutely Quiet. CONDITION &) IMPROVED Pulse, Temperature and Respiration Pronounced Normal This Morning. “POSSESSION IS NINE POINTS” Says the Colonel When Told Schrank Had Willed Bullet to Histori- cal Soociety. UNITED PRESS BULLETIN. Chicago, Oct. 19.—Mercy hospi- tal.—Roosevelt’s physicians issued the following bulletin at 10 o’clock this morning: “Pulse, temperature, and respiration all normal. Breath- ing easier. General condition good. Convalescense is rapid. Signed Beven, Lambert and Terrell.” It was announced later that the Colonel would be taken to Oyster Bay on the 10:25 Pennsylvania train next Monday morning. Roosevelt this morning was told that Schrank the man who shot him, had made a will claiming the bullet queathing it to the New York His- torical society. “I don’t think that claim will hold good as possession is nine points of and be- law,” replied the wounded man. UNITED PRESS BULLETIN. Chicago, Oct. 19.—Mercy hospi- tal at 8 a. m.—Roosevelt last night spent ithe most comfortable ipight since the shooting. He awoke at 7 o'clock with the remark “I feel bully.” His physicians agree that the Colonel has safely passed the crisis and every hour will now find him rapidly advancing toward com- plete recovery. Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 19.—After two days of diligent writing in his cell in the county jail, the theme of which he closely guarded, John Schrank, Colonel Roosevelt’s assail- ant, confided to Deputy Sheriff Wal- ter Ramslick that he had written his will. In the document Schrank be- quests the bullet now in Colonel Roosevelt’s body to the New York Historical society and specifies that it be placed among other historical exhibits in the capitol at Albany. The .38 calibre six-shooter he used shall also be thus disposed of, Schrank stipulated. The prisoner for the first time since the crime asked of the con- dition of Roosevelt. Assured that the Colonel was practically on the road to recovery. he expressed satisfac- tion and refused to make further comment. As a precaution against Schrank’s obtaining temporary liberty on bail and possibly commiting further acts of violence, his bail has been in- creased from $7,500 to $15,000. If it appears probable that the pris- oner will furnish bail at this amount the bond will still further be in- creased, according to the county pro- secutor, Winifred C. Seabel. Seabel, however, does mnot be- lieve the prisoner’s statement that he owns property in New York valued at $25,000. Schrank is be- lieved to possess less than $150, the sum found in his possession after the shooting. This amount, it is be- lieved from information in the dis- trict attorney’s office, is that remain- ing from $300 Schrank borrowed just before starting from New York on the trail of the ex-president. District Attorney Seabel further admitted that another reason for in- creasing Schrank’s bail from $7°500 o $15,000 was because he had ascer- tained that a large moving picture concern in the east planned to fur- nish the amount of Schrank’s bond and use the prisoner as the subject for interesting “movies.” A representative of the film com- pany called on the prisoner. S “I do mot believe in exhibiting pictures of this man to the morbid- 1y curious in every city and hamlet of the country,” said Seabel and he steadfastly refused to allow it. (October, 1912, JOB E.

No ' speeches had been scheduled for Grafton,.but several thousand people with a band met the special. The governor hurriedly hustled ‘into his trousers, shoes and overcoat, and stepped out onto the rear platform, where he shook hands and waved to the crowd just as thé train started. “That’s the game they play on me in every state,” he said, laughingly, re-entering the car, with his shoe laces dragging and his pajamas coat peeping out from under his overcoat. “It was definitely arranged to have no speeches at Grafteon, but they arranged it anyway. I know the game, but I can’t beat it,” he said. At Clarksburg Wilson stopped for an hour and talked to a crowd in the courthouse square.
