Lose Brancnw, N, J., Sept. 13.—It has been another beautiful day at Long Branch, and all has gone well at Elberon cottage. The President, at his own request, was placed in his invalid chair, and, for half an hour, looked out upon the sen lie loves so well. “Weexpect no further complication, excopt that he may be struck by Hghtning,’” sald Dr. Bliss cheerfully, as he bade the cor- respondents good-night, aud with the hope- fulness which that remark implies the day began and has closed. The night was a coin- fortablo one for the President. He did not sleep more, but he had better sleep. It was not as heavy, but was more natural. Tho opiate was not used, and le awoke this morning feeling better. is temperature was a degree above normal, his pulse still at 100, below which it now seldom fails, and his respiration still -at20, a figure which, Dr. Bliss says, 1 normal for the President, _ ALTNOVGI the Doctor, when in Washington, sald that 17-was about his normal respiration, and that. an-Inerease beyond that figure was to be. ‘considered «ns .an .indication ..of possi- blo ‘trouble with the lungs: Ue- had taken more nourishment, -or,. perhaps, it may more properly bo called stimulant, during tho night, for the nourlstinent that he is now taking at night consists practleally ‘of pretty strong brandy aud imiik punches, Everybody looked cheerful at the Elveron cottage at an early hour, Iu took what was given hhn for breakfast readily, but it can- not be sald that ut any one tung he is hungry, as he fs required to take food so often, ‘The doctors had gone to thelr breakfast at thelr cottage, when A MESSENGLIt FROM THE RESIDENT'S COT- TAGE came rapidly to the one occupled by the doctors, and sald In a low tone tu Drs. Hamll- ton and Bliss, and Cols. Swaim and Rockwell: “'fho President wants yout fumediately.” "These gentlemen started quickly, evidently unconselous of the purpose for which they were called, and with a silzht shnde of anxiety upon thelr faces. ‘They reached the Elveron cottage by rapid strides, THK CONRESPONDENTS, who had been talking with them, were nate urally somewhut alarmed, for the experience of the mst: two months had taught thom that the unexpected was lable to happen at any une, and the watehers of the Inst ten weeks have been surprised by sudden changes: at unexpected moments, The next fifteen min- utes seemed an hour, Thon Dr. Mamtiton returned with a smiling face: ‘Gentlemen, you need not be alarmed, ‘Tho President asked usto put him in his reclining char, nnd we have dong It. He is at the window yonder, looking out upon the ocean, but he 1s not sitting up very much, .'The chair is 80 rectluing that be sits up very little higher than he dues in bed.” Soon Dr. Bliss sald that YH PRESIDENT AD REMINDED THES OF A PROMISE mado yesterday, that he might bo placed in lis ehatr today, and they had fulfilled thelr promise, A glance nt the window trom the lawn in trout of Secretary Brown’s cottage yevenled the outline of the reclining figure of the President, and in the shadowy dis- tance his face could be faintly seen, It was a beautiful view that no had to look wor. It was TI PERVEOY DAY for which the physlehins have walted, and for which Mrs, Garileld has prayed, ‘The sea stretched away calm and blue be- fore him to the horizon, Myriads of gulls were hovering over the schools of blue fish, which, in turn, were pursuing an tne mense sehool of munhaden that fishermen from four vessels were catching in thelr neta, A large European ateniner was abreast the Elberon cottage, us if to permit its pase sengers tocatch a Inst giiinpse of the spot where the suffering President lay before turning on {ts eastward course, A Cuban stenmer was hauling close in shore, as if to Jearn whether tho President was still ullve, IN THE SURF at his fect there were o few bathers, while the grass, fresh from tho recent ralos, covered the apnce from the cottage to the top ofthe bluffs, ‘The solitary sentry still made his rounds over the green award, ‘Shat was tho picture which presented Itselt to the wearled eyes of the Presidont, as for the first tlie since July She rested upon something dltferent from the cot which has neconmodated Itself to overy change of his rapidly-wasting body, lle was raised at an Ineline of, Dr, Bliss says, forty-five di t8, Di, HAMILTON HAYS FIFTEEN DEGREES, However these ditferences of statement may be reconciled, the President was pleased to call It “sitting up? although he was not ralsed higher than be has been In bed by a pillow.

THR WOUND : presents new evidences today of satistac- tory healing. Dr. Bilss now agrees with Dr, + Mammilton that “the ball has probably ene eysted, and he belleves the wound has healed; Detween three and font tiehes from the hot , ton. Healthy granulation is observed along the track of the wound, Great caro is being taken to keap the wound opon, execpt ns it + heals up from the bullet. ‘Ihe Irritation {4 purposely nade, to keep It, open until evi- fences of complete healing at the furthor end. ‘The physicians think that the Presl- detit shows today a triffing galn In strength, and they are entertaining tonight stronger + hopes that the sen alr is doing hitn goo work In purifying the blood. ‘I'he lines of .expres- Of) ston In the face are thought to be firmer, and. other silt indications of galn have been expressed. Yet, ns Dr. Bliss sald tonight, NO ONE KNOWS WHAT MAY BE DEVELOPED ° at any moment. ‘The Doctor says that he cunnot now see any reasonable grounds for Apprehendlng any new complication, but the appearance of something would not surprise blu. Although the physicians hove that the lung tronble lias passed away, yet they are not sure of It. ‘hey do not agree exactly a3 to what the trouble Is, If Dr. Agnew ts cor rectly reported, he hag no doubt that a me- tastatic abscess exists there. Dr. Boynton has thought so too, although he is beginning to hove that ali danger from i has gon DN. BLISS TONIGHT PROFESSES TO BE SURB that the trouble is nothing but an intlumma- tlun, which ts now subsiding. The record of respiration today does not show that it has subsided, Both at noon and night, when the temperature and pulse were comparatively lower, the resplration was higher than it would te if no trouble existed Inthe lings. ‘The record ot the abscess of the parotld . gland shows that, at thines, the fever ran very high, and then anys of comparative freedom. from fever followed, but it culminated at lust in) the so-called relavse of two weeks go, which brouglt the Presl- dent so close to death, Bliss says that the examination of other vital organs, such as the Kidneys and Iver, shows no sizn of the beginning of any trouble with them. THE PRESIDENT'S APPETITE is not sv good as many suppose, He lias no appetite, and Dr. Biss himself franily sald - so tonight, ‘This may, be due to the fact that he ls constantly fed. ‘They crowd tho stomach, giving him all they dare, and the Preisdent takes food as_he would a dose of medicine. ‘They are still giving him pzetty sti! doses of brandy—two milk punches lust night in which was very old brandy, and more or Jess of it during the day. If tho amount of stimulants fs diminished it is very speedily detected In o tise of pulse, and the chances are in fayor of Jatger amounts of aicolio!_ before the stimu- jant is reduced. In addition to the brandy, ine grains of quinine have been given the’ President today. As the stomach’ might re-? fuse the quinine, the drug 1s given him in- suppositories. Dr. Bilsssays the object In‘ giving quinine is to keep the system toned. NO APPRECTABLE GAIN OF FAT: é hag-been- observed, though tho physicians: have been looking closely for such’ Jnerense in tissue. ‘They would regard even’ the slightest galn tn this respect of very great Importance, and one of the most favor-’ able of indications. ‘The danger of collapse’ from inanition still exista, and great enough® to cause even more apprehension than any! of the other complications. * Dr. Bilss spoke of this danger tonight as though it was ono’ ‘tor which he feared more than any other, It. 1s probable that tha President will pass 0 comparatively quiet -ulght, and that ls con- alition tomorrow will be about the same as today. WHEN THE PRESIDENT WAS ALONE with one of his conitdential attendantstoday, the following colloquy occurred: The President—Deson’t my coughing wor+ ry you? ‘The uattendant—No, Indeed, Why should you think so? All of the surgeons are agreed that the cough !3 only an Incident of your general condition, Distniss the thought from your mind. ‘The President—Yes, but I fear thot it Is one of those incidents that are very unwel- come, Itcertainly worries me, Lam afraid we are going to have a long siege.

Tle said in ils evening talk Ithink there ts an’ Inerease of fat tssue, ‘That would be the best possible slgn, of course, When he be- gins to depostt fat that fs a condition that will bo marked very aulekly. My Impression. now Is that there is a Httle increase. His ter, and his Hnes of expresston are, firmer. We are rid of the suppurating gland, ‘The wound fs granulating. ‘There ts nothing offensive aboutit. It isa healthy sore.
