CROWD SILENT While there was an undoubted air of gratification shown by the watchers outside the gates, there was no demonstration. In a few minutes those who had waited for hours, gave way to new-comers, and again the almost silent watch was resum- ed. Whether from deference to the public or in hope that a regular bulletin might have the effect of dispersing the watch- ers and relieving the anxiety that was everywhere manifest, is not known, but at 10 o'clock the physicians issued the Tol- lowing bulletin: PHYSICIANS’ BULLETIN “His majesty was very restless, and without sleep during the early part of the night, but obtained some sleep after 1 a.m. No untoward symptom has presented itself, and consid- ering all the circumstances, his majesty may be said to be progressing satisfactorily.” The officials having the procession matter in charge met’ after the bulletin was issued and went carefully over the situ- ation. That they believe the gravity of the situation is great | was demonstrated when, after the meeting was over, the an- nouncement was made to the public that it had been definitely decided that Friday's procession should not take place. It created not a ripple of excitement, as it was the general be- lief that such would be the final action. SUFFERS NO PAIN It was unofficially announ:ed at noon that his majesty’s case was progressing favorably, At that hour he was awake and suffering no pain. From the highest sources, however, news concerning him was altogether pessimistic, with nothing to alleyiatethe anxic- ty. From these same sources emanated the opinion that Ed- | ward's chances for recovery are far out-balanced by those of | death. Those who are in a position to have the real inside facts and best opions regarding the case are not in the least hope- ful, as was evidenced by the fact that Prince Leopold.of Ba- varia, Archduke Berdinand of Austria and Prinse Albert of ee ce Te ee route for home. KING IS TOLD BULLETIN, 3 p. m—After a consultation, the physi- cians who are attendant upon King Edward, de-ided to tell him the exact truth regarding his condition. They did so and told his majesty to prepare for the worst. Although largely under the influence of drugs and barely conscious, Edward made a brave response, saying that he was prepared to either continue life or meet death. When the news was told him, there was not a single |change of expression, nor a tremot. His will is undoubtedly strong, and bis longing to live for the people decidedly ‘strengthens his purpose to fight off the grim combatant to the last. Intercessory services are being held in all houses of wor- ship today, regardless of creed or sect, and from church, chapel and synagogue rise prayers for the king’s recovery.
