The doctors had held their evening consultation earlier than usual and they frankly announced in thelr ofcial bulletin at 8:30 that the president’s condition was not nod.

Wasdin, Stockton and Rixey remained sick room throughout the night and those who left after the early evening con sultation contrary to their usual custom slipped away through the sido exit.

Dr. Stockton, a local general practitioner with & high reputation, was called in for | the first time tonight, it being explained that the complication that had arisen was one with which a physician and not a sur- geon would have to deal. Secretaries Hitch- cock and Wilson, who 'w at the Milburn house at 11 o'clock, said when they de- parted that there was no cause for alarm; that the trouble was ‘n the stomach and not in the wound, and they believed the presi- dent’s condition would be improved in the morning.
