Later and M-re Cheering Bul- letins, Serious Talk of Removing the Patient. Long Branch Suggested as a Des rable Point. Interesting Talk With the Attend- ing Surgeons al Asso oss, Wasnixatos, September 1, —The president had another good night. His sleep during the greater part of the night was satisfactory and thecon- dition indicated in the morning bulle tin was substantinted by the most caveful inquiry. The only disturbing element in public opinion” was the pe- | culiar reference to absence of rig |and " perspiration as accompanin of last evening's fever, pression v nts Tho first in- as that the vigor must have been expeeted in that connection and that their absence was cited as an- os- ial encouraging sigu. But nothing, said Dr. Boynton, should be made of this. The same thing has occurred several times even in the president’s best days, and no notice was taken. The usual febrile rise was slight and came on again later in the evening. There was no special sign in the circumstance, and the president is no worse this morn- ing on account of it. He has con- tinued to improve, and T should be perfectly satisfied if the wound were discharging more ftreely. The dis- charge is some better than a few days ago, and the character of the discharge in also improving. p There is not the least danger of ab- sorption of pus from it, as it is per- fectly clean. The gland, too, is doing very ficely. | T do not think the open- ing into the mouth will cause any trouble, but T think that the pus has been finding its way with the mucus into the mouth for some days. 1t will not prove a drawback. I think the president gained a little strength yes- - | terday and will continue to do so to- day. Dr. Boynton said further that the president was cheerful, talked a good removal, wanted to go to Chio, and might possibly bye and bye if not now. He the noise of passing trains would not shock him, and he could go by road. The fact is the physicians are seriously discussing plans of re- moval. It has heen suggested that a track could be laid dircet to the White House doors and the president placed in a car without serious distui ance, and then he could be taken an wlxwe The surgeons seem vo thisik 4o sol- diers’ home not enough of a_ change. The plan favorably regarded is to con- vey the president in the Tallapoosa to some seaside resort, probably Long Branch. If the improvement contin- ucs he can be moved somewhere with- in ten days.
