But tho dispatch sent: afterward by the- Socre- tury of —State, betrayed - the ‘sud fear. that: the President was doomed, for, while stating that Gen, Garileid was euf- forlug leas pain, Mr, Blaing udded; ‘He Is entirely enim and courageous, and accepts whatever fate God may ordain for hit with perfect resignation, and with sublime Clirts- tian faith.” Finally the delayed bulletin of 6 o'clock this evening appeared at 8, IT CONFINMED THE GRAVEST APPREHEN- sions, ‘and made the heartsof all heavy. It reported the symptoms less favorable, and sald that there had been vomiting, and that the pulse jad. increased to 128, Those who had been swatehing the bulletins all day and had been tn consultation, sald: “A marked Increase of pulse means death” THY FEARFUL CONVICTION, : soon after.8 o'clock this eventing, took pos- session of probably most of the people in Washington that the President must die, ‘There were those who hoped, but the physi- clans nu tonger gave encouragement. ‘Their replies were yuntded, and to most Inquiries they were slleyt, Ono niore builtin after 8 o’cluck was promised to~be issued at 10 o'clock, and after tay the eager world was told that nothing more woutd be madeknown until morning. The sad thought could not be avoided that possibly the morning bulletin might say that the puise had stopped, THE 8 O'CLUCK BULLETIN left the unavoidable inference thot the situa- tion was extremely critical, ‘The statements afterwards by physiclans’ and meinbers of the Cabinet confirmed the gravest apprehen- alons, ; Dr. Royburn was only willing to sny that by midnight something :definitly could be stated. © Dr. Biisy sald that he should geo to It that the bulletins were strictly accurate statements of the truth, Dr. Purvis declared that, in lis Judemont, the President had been growing worse since half-past 1 thls afternoon, ond that. he was gradually falling. It was soon reported in the corridors of the White Mousa that the President was weakening In his mind, and no one who had authority seemed pre- pared to deny ft, but the explandtion was offered that possibly he might be weak from opiates, THIS WEAKENING OF THE MIND fs regarded ay u very unfavorable symptom, At this hour the hopes of the President's re- covery are growing less. Postimaster-Gen- eral James and Secretary Iunt, whe have just left the’ Cabinet-room, say that the symptoms are dicidedly Jess favorable. ‘There is arwmor that the Cabinet will be called in special session during the evening. Arrangements have been made to administer the oath of ofceto Vice-President Arthur as goon as possible, should death ensue. ‘THE CHANGE Folt THE RETTER, ‘The first Intimation.that the 10 o'clock bul- letin would show slightly finproved symp- toms was a disputch from Col. Corbin, which said that the President was some better, Soon after Surgeou-General Barnes lott the White House, but he declined to glve infor- mation as to the examination. -Ifs opinion, however, beenme well known from tho fact that a short time since he had predicted that the President would die before midnight. When tho bulletin came it showed. to bo sure, slightly tnproved symptoms, but they were not so marked “'ng to bo very encouraging, It dent, however, that the examination had had nrenssurlng affect among tho President's ! friends, for Adjutant-General Drum soon Jrame down stairs, his face brightenIng, suy- wing: “The news wili be some better. ‘The bulletins show.n siight aimelforation of the symptoins during tho past two hours. No yomilting during that perlod, ‘The pulse 124; sure rest, no inore bulletins unttl imeurning.”” "This offictal statement, like all others, did not say whether or not the physicians ‘hoped for life. : —— ALONG, LONG, WEARY DAY.
