The Illustriu& Inmm of Franck- Iyn Cottage Still Re- mains Weak, The Invalid Chair is Placed at an Inclination of 40 Degrees. Boynton the Only Phyesician ‘Who Does Not Look and Talk Cheerfully. Mrs, Garfield the Recipient of Condolence and Sympathy, The Tolegraph Reports Stormy and Disagreeble Weather at the Branch. National Associated Press LoNac Brancu, Sept. 15, 8:40 a. m. —The morning bulletin has not yet been issued, and there is great feeling of uneasiness. This uneasiness has been intensified by the fact thag both Dr. Agnew and Dr, Hamilton went to the president's room a few minutes after 8 o'clock and remained there until half-past 9 o'clock. It had been nndemtnos that Dr. - Agnew was to have taken the early train to Phila- delphia, and the fact that he had not done so was construed into a verifica- tion of the sensational rumor tele- graphed late last night that the sur- geons had determined to insert a gpi- rator this morning into THE PRESIDENT'S RIGHT LUNG, for the purpose ot draining off from it the pus that was gathered therein, At the morning dressing, at 8:30 o’clock, the president’s temperature was 98.4, his pulse 100, and his respiration 20, He passed the night comfortably, sleeping until 3 o’clock this morping when he was wakeful for a period’ of two hours, during which time the PULSE ROSE TWELVE DEGREES, but without the marked clevation of temperature which has characterized the febrile disturbances before. Aber this time hesleptuntil morning, More nourishment was given during the uight than for several nights past. In reviewing the case of the president since his arrival at Long Branch, it may be said that, in spite of the vari- ons sceptic accidents which have for several weeks and does still complicate his cate, he has certainly not refro- graded; but, on the contrary, he hag made some progress towards convay; 1 ceuce. = (Signed), Buriss, GNEW, Ham1LTON. GEN., SWAIM came from the president's cottage at 9:30 o'clock and was asked what kind of a night the president had. ‘‘He had a good night,” answered the general; ‘‘as good as Tuesday, certainly, and I think even better. His condition this morning is very favorable, perceptibly more so than yesterday. He slept well and sound- ly, in long stretches. I should say his sleep was in periods about two and one-half hours each. He was not wakeful nor resti He began to sleep about nine o'clock and had refreshing naps up to midnight, when he had few wakeful spells, dur- ing which he drank water and took nourisfment. About one o’clock he fell into a deep sleep which lasted un- til eight o’clock this morning with but TWO OR THREE BREAKS. The report is untrue that an opera- tion of spiration is to be, or was to be performed this morning; nothing of the kind has been mentioned or ev- en though of. There has been operations and no necessity for one.” “This morning’s bulletin is de- layed; has any new complication arisen?” “Not at all. The only reason why the bulietin is delayed is that the physicians are holding a long consul- tation for the advisibility of making certain statements in the bulletin,” This afternoon he said to the at- tending surgeon that felt better. He also said: “I feel hungry; may I have a couplo of reed birds!” Dr, Bliss will go to New York York this morning and will return this after- noon, Dr. Agnew will remain until he comes back, Dr. Bliss said the president had an excellent night and that his condition this morning, in his opinion, is better than it was yes) terday morning. All the indications, he says, ave that the Lone Branet, September 15.—Dr. Hamilton, who has persistently re- fused while at Elberon to say any- thing regarding the condition of the president outside of what was report- ed in the bulletins, said in conversa- tion with a friend, a guest at Elber- chair the ne of inoli gndullly increased until it reached forty de- grees. The increase was made care- fully and was slowly stopped when the president said: ““I think that will do. That is vory comfortable.” He was carefully observed when re- placed in bed, but there was no rise in his pulse, respiration or temperature to indicate that he had suffered from the change. Every aay hereafter will be thus exercised until he cansit up per- feetlr The president’s strength is slowly but perceptibly increasing. He moves his legs and feet a great deal now. The ability and disposition to use his arms and hands grows every day. Foran unendurable period he has not been able to lift to his mouth a glass of wator, but now he often raises both arms and lies with them passed over his head and his fingors interlocked. There is noticeable a FILLING OUT OF THE BODY particularly at the hips.

During the afternoon Mrs. Garfield read him a number of private letters at his re- quest. 5:30 P. M. BULLETIN — OFFCIAL. EvuEroN, Sept 15.—The president has passed a quiet day, sleeping a lit- tle. Heo has coughed occasionally, the expectoration being less purulent. greater variety of nourish- ment has beon taken without discomfort. He was placed upon the invalid’s chair and remained forty-five minutes in a position ‘a little more ele- vated than on previous occasions.

SYMPATHY FOR MRS, GARFIETD, The following telegram was received to-day by Mrs. Garfield from Topeka, Kansas: “Twenty thousand veteran soldiers, in reunion here assembled, send you our sympathy and love and ask you to say to our stricken comrade that our hearts are beating withan anxious hope for his recovery, say to him webelieve that under heaven, aided by that sub- lime courage and faith which in the past have been to all the peoplo his crown of glory, he will be preserved to the country he has served so long and farthfully. Louis Haxcock, Commanding. Dr. Bliss, while in New York to- day, was conducted to the stock ex- change and created such a stampede among the brokers that he was glad to escape. Aguew and Bliss, Rock- well and Swain, all agreed that the Bwsident is perceptibly improving. r. Boynton remains the one person conneosed with the case still inclined to take A GLOOMY VIEW last thing he said about the president was: ‘‘I have known cases of phwemia much worse than the president's in which there was recovery. I once had a patient who recovered from a case very much worse than his and now have strong hopes that he will, but at the same time 1 can’i forget that there is not on record, to my knowledge, a single case of phmmia in which the patient’s pulse was so high as Garfield's has been all along His pulse has averaged day in and day out high daily figures, with the temperature from 115 to 117, and I think his normal pulse rangesbetween 74 and 76, but I hopo for the best.” IT 15 NOW STORMING HERE and the ocean is very rough and the air damp and misty. The surgeons say the changes in the weather have had no bad effect on the president since he has been here, and there have been three ugly changes already, His room is lined with cork, and no damp- ness can penetrate it. The tempera- ture is kept betwoen 82 and 85 by a grate fire, The president was asloe, at 10 o'clock, and all the surgeons nng on, that the chances of recovery are now good. There are no active disturbing elements in the case nor indication of any new complications, although the LATTER 18 POSSIBLE. 8o long as the septic condition of the blood is not thoroughly eliminated, and while the septic condition contin- ues, there will necessarily be fluctua- tions in pulse, respiration and tem- perature. It will probably be a long period, perhaps five weeks, before this trouble is entirely removed, and afier that recovery will be very rapid and itis my opmion that Mr. Garfield will ultimately be as well as before he was shot,” Dr, Bliss, on his way to the train to New York, stated that the trip to New York was on purely PERSONAL BURINESH, The history of the president's con- dition during the day is so well told in the official bulleting that there is little to say in addition.

So far Vanderbilt has taken no notice of the doings of his rivals. He has taken no new steps, nor has anything been heard from him since he cut down the New York to §5.00, and the Boston rate to $6. It is claimed that he will take no new steps, but will let his adversarics doall the fighting. He believes that the present rates are low enough for all his intents and purposes, and that his rivals will soon get sick of doing business at these figures. His ad- versarics, however, have shown a good deal of pluck thus far and they claim to be able to stand the fight as long Vanderbilt can, A e » THE ST. LEDGER.

All who could went down yesterday to Don- caster, and were present in sufficient force to do all the necessary yelling when Iroquois passed the winning 0st. An attempt is making to estab- ish the fact that all the late uncer- tainty about Iroquois originated on the part of the American gamblers for the purpose of raising the odds against the horse.” ~ Yesterday morning some of the London papers charged that it the horse lost it would be evidence of a disgraceful act on the part of Loril- lard, his owner, in having permitted him to sun. Tt is now charged that o swindle was involved becauze he did win. The time was twelve seconds better than last year, The weather was all that could be desired. There was an enormous crowd and the bet- ting up to the last moment was 100 to 300 against Iroquois, Tt has be the Waterloo of English sportsmen, Fabulous sums had been staked, most of which have gone into American pockets, Bankers and Brokers.

A Negro So Badly Hurt that He May Die, Last evening a promiscuous fight occurred outside the fair grounds that may probably result in the death of a colored man, Owing to the eircum- stances under which it occurred it is almost impossible to get at the full facts of the matter. All that can be ascertained is that the negro and a wan in firemen's unitorm were seen in a hot dispute. Suddenly the fireman struck the negro and felled him to the ground. Others in a crowd standing around pounced upon the prostrate African, some jumpin, upon his stomach and others pound- ing his head to a jelly. The negro was finally left unconscious in a badly battered condition, Some time later he was lifted mto a passing wagon and taken to the city jail. There Dr. Leisenring was called to see him, He found the man badly gashed about the face, but his principal injuries were of an internal character. At a late hour last night the nfan was still unconscious, Dr. Leisenring said if the man recovered at all it would be by the closest possi- ble shave, The man’s name cou not be learned. S e o
