- PRCSEEVY MORE AN - HOLOING S O (Continued from First Page) After a few minutes there he returned through the corridors to his room, conversing with those who inquired concerning the chief executive. “There is nothing to add to the statement General Sawyer has given you,” Secretary Work told the news- * papermen, adding that every symptom in the case pointed to “‘a most pleas- ing progress on the part of the pres- ident.” There was an understanding today among members of the presidential party that the chief executive and Mrs. Harding would return direct to ‘Washington, leaving San Franclsco as soon as the physiclans would give their permission for the president to travel. Some of the president's advisors yesterday indicated their bellef that it would be best for him during his convalescence to spend some time vis- iting with Willlam Wrigley, Jr.,, on Catania Island off the Southern Cali- fornia coast, but it was understood la- ter that there was no possibility that the trip to Catanla would be made. Railroad officlals have given careful study to the selection of the overland | route east and have recommended | that the trip home be made that way, the train running at a comfortable speed and probably stopping at night in order that the president might have complete rest. In the event improvement continued and there was no relapse, it was sald there was reason to believe start | might be made in about a week. Presidential Headquarters, Palace Hotel, San Francisco, Aug. 1.—Presi- dent Harding today seemed certain of | recovery, barring improbable develop- ment of new complications in his ill- ness or the equally improbable in- crease of the present ones. Brig. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer, chief | of the staff of physicians on the president’s case was still standing by his statement of last night that the crisis had been passed and that “the president is well on the road to re- covery.” Added to this was the dec- laration from an authoritative source that the only reason for concern was because the patient was the president of the United States and not because of any new symptoms or likelihood of any. “Bince we have out toxin well un- der control, I feel safe in saying that we have passed the peak load of trou- ble,” was the way Gen. Sawyer sum- marized the situation in an informal statement. 1 don't want to be too emphatic about it, because we always face complications. But I feel that the crisis is over and that the presi- dent is well on the road to recover.” President Expresses Hope This feeling was manifestly shared by all of the other physicians and by members of the president's imme- diate party. Mrs. Harding who has been by the side of her husband throughout this fight as she has been in all struggles he has waged, was un- | derstood to be even more optimistic, and the president, himself, was con- vinced that the battle has been won, for he was quoted by Secretary Work as having sald late yesterday: “Work, I think we're almost out | of the woods.” The president’s own feelings were expressed at a time when his condi- tion was not so satisfactory as it be- came as the evening came on and in | turn grew into the night. He was said to be extremely cheerful when he awakened about 9 o'clock last night from what Dr. Sawyer described as the best and most natural sleep he has had since his illness began. He was awake only a short time and then dropped back into a sleep that was described as quite different from and exceedingly more satisfactory than the nervous sleep of Monday night when all the physicians were agreed that his condition was grave. From time to time last night word came from the presidential suite that Mr. Harding was asleep and each time ' those who remained on watch became more and more optimistic. Bleep and rest “to repair the breaches” Gen. Sawyer sald was what the chief exe- cutive most needed, and so far as could.be learned prior to issuance of an official bulletin this need was be- A steady Increase in the amount of nourlshment being taken by the president was another cause for op- timism. His diet, as prescribed yes- terday, and as continued today con- @sted of egg nogs, fruit juices, milk, toast and soft boiled eggs. The nour- {shment obtained by the president, it | was sald, was quite safe for one In his condition. The decided turn for the better was indicated in every possible way last night. Gen. SBawyer went out for a walk about nine o'clock, the first time he had been outside the hotel since the president was brought here Bun- day. Returning he spent half an hour or so in the president’s room and then retired. The head nurse elso took advantage of the change in her patient's condition and obtained | some sleep. Lieut. Commander Joel T. Boone, assistant to Dr. Bawyer, alone remained in the president's {room or within call through the night. Mrs. Harding having retired about midnght. Gen, Bawyer, after his last visit to the president’'s room and before go- ing to bed, issued a brief statement as to Mr. Harding's condition. This ended by saying that he was ‘rest- ing comfortably."” Announcement was made shortly before midnight that no more bulle- tins would be issued until after the morning consultation today at 9 o'clock (Pacific coast tme.) Future Plans Not Made. The betterment of the president's | condition, however, did not lead to any serlous discussion of the future program of the party. Whatever may be recommended, Mr. Harding | will have final decision, and there is | no intention of placing any such mat- ters as that before him until he gets back his strength., Willlam Wrigley, Jr., presented to Becretary Christian an invitation to the president and Mrs. Harding to spend the days of | the former's convalescence at Catania where he has a large estate. Neither was the change for the bet- ter immediately noticeable in diminu- tion of the number of telegrams re- cefved. All through the early hours | of the evening messenger boys con- tinued to make frequent trips with telegrams and the stream got under way again early this morning. Mean- time, valiant efforts were being made to write and have signed acknowledg- ments of the wishes tendered and soll- citude shown. Among these was a response to a telegram sent by Presi- dent Wilson. None of the messages was made public. PRAYERS FOR HARDING. Special services to pray for the speedy recovery of President Harding were held in practically all of the city churches today. Many Protestant churches left thelr doors open all day for worshippers and special masses were held in Catholic churches. Jew- ish synagogues were open also for special prayers. The 8t. Matthew's German Lutheran church held a special prayer meeting at 12:40 p. m, today and will hold another one at the same time tomorrow. TRILLION MARKS A DAY.

Sire, which brought her leadership of the Wom- en's National League of Democratic | clubs, cost her husband, Clarence D. i Sire, more than $100,000, Supreme Court Justice Burr was told yester- day in argument,on Mrs. Sire's peti- tion for an order amending her separ- ation dearee of May 6 to prevent her thusband from “annoying' her. To a reporter Mr, Sire said: “I spent money right and left fos- tering my wife's political ambitions and I estimate conservatively that Mrs, Sire's political career has cost | me more than $100,000. And bear in mind, too, that while she was en- gaged in politics she paid little or no attention to her household or the du- ties & married woman assumes.” Mrs. Sire's application to modify her separation decree arises from dis- puted ownership of a twelve-room | $20,000 cottage on Fire Island. | Thirteen years ago Mr, Sire deeded [ the cottage to his wife. He asserts she reconveyed it to him, and she denies this. An attempt by Mrs. Sire and two companions to take possession two weeks ago resulted in her arrest on a charge of unlawful entry, The case will cgme up for final hearing before Justic& Willis at Bayshore, L. 1., Fri- | day. “The cottage is a veritable arsenal. Men with shotguns are guarding it and the state constabulary have been called in,” declared Julius Hechtelder. asked that the decree be amended. Randolph M. Newman, Sire's law- as a ‘“squatter proceeding,” and “Mrs. Sire has not spent a night in the cottage in five years. Mr. Sire has always paid the taxes and upkeep expenses and Mrs. Sire never paid a nickel.” Mr. Sire said while he is in posses- sion of the cottage he was incensed at Mrs. Sire because of her treatment of a seventy-three-year-old friend of the family, a widow, who lives there. | “Mrs. Sire,” he said, “threw thls old lady's belongings out on the sand, had my shirts and clothing bundled after them and even threw an ofl painting of my father on a heap of rubbish.” ‘When Mrs. Sire got her decree she accepted $1,000 in lieu of alimony. Justice Burr reserved the decision.
