PRESIDENT CLEVELAND SUBMITS
TO THE KNIFE.
i .
AN OPERATION PERFORMED UPON HIM
BY WHICH PART OK HIS JAW
WAS REMOVE!!.
Philadelphia, Aug. 29- Wide
spread interest has been excited by
the Press' publication this morning
of a story from its reliable New York
correspondent concerning President
Cleveland's mysterious illness. Heart
felt sympathy for the sufferer from a
disease the fearful nature of which is
only hinted at has been expressed on
all sides and everywhere is heard the
wish that the outcome may be more
favorable than can be hoped for from
the tenor of his story.
The correspondent says :
It is useless longer to conceal the
fact that Mr. Cleveland is a sick man,
perhaps a very sick man, and that the
physicians have fear that mortal dis
ease is lurking in his system, notwith
standing the heroic efforts of surgery
to remove it during the Summer. Sec
retary Lamont, who was here last
week and whose anxiety was impres
sive and pitiful for his friends to see,
said with something of the tone of
sadness in his voice that there would
be and could be r.o attempt on the
part of the administration to make
any interference in the local politics
of New York, and when asked why
this was so, Lamont replied, saying it
to Colonel Monroe : "The President
is a sick man, how sick we cannot
telL"
The news which is here reported
for the first time has been received
from those whose sources of informa
tion are so accurate as to justify, even
to compel, its publication.
FROM TRUSTWORTHY SOURCES.
It comes from men, some of whom
aw and had part in what is described.
For the sake of the hope which the
entire country will entertain that the
worst is over, it may be best not to
report with absolute fidelity what the
ubysicians saw and what they feared ;
it may be enough to say that at the
present time there is hope that the
narvels of surgery have been sufficient
ro meet and master the trouble, what
ever it may be.
When Mr. Cleveland again became
President last March he seemed to be
n the best of health, although it was
lain to him that he had less vigor, a
liminished power of maintaining sus
ained efforts and hearing with pro
onged fatigue than was the case when
se first, in the prime of his manhood,
ecame President of the United
Ilates.
He seemed to bear the strain, how
ever, with much of ease and conipara
ive comfort, having from experience
earned how best to meet and fend off
hose early embarrassments and prcs
.tire which await a newly inaugurated
.'resident.
But there was a mental strain, one
hat called for much greater draft up
mi his vital resources than any which
itfice seekers entailed, created by the
.tidden, overwhelming and extraordi
tary financial situation.
It may be that this mental strain
leveloped, if it did not create, that
lisease with which the physicians have
een contending. They know only
hat they have seen and what their
.nstruments have done.
his suffering concealed.
It was in the late Springjthat Mr
Cleveland began to be tormented
with pain which seemed to proceed

from a tooth. He endured it like a
hero.
He concealed his suffering from his
family, and it is probable that no one,
excepting Secretary Lamont, knew
that he had physical torture as well as
mental anxiety to contend with. The
pain did not yield to local and usual
treatment. When the first careful ex
amination was made, or when the
suspicion was created that this trouble
was due to no exposure of a dental
nerve or to any usual disease of the
teeth, my informants do not know;
they do know that there was a time,
shortly before the President issued his
call for the extraordinary session of
Congress, when it was determined
that an operation was inevitable, how
grave or extensive could not at first be
determined.
It is probable that the decision to
perform the operation while the Presi
dent was upon Mr. Benedict's yacht
was due to several reasons one, per
haps, that the family, being in ignor
ance, might not be overwhelmed by
anxiety and suspense ; another, that
if the operation was performed with
surgical success the country might not
be alarmed. 1
Mr. Cleveland, with Mr. Lamont,
left Washington quite suddenly upon
the day when the call for an extra
session was issued.
SUBMITTED CALMLY TO THE KNIFE.
Arrangements were made in this
city with celerity, and Mr. Cleveland
was met when he arrived here by Dr.
Bryant and another physician, and
Dr. Hasbrouck, all of whom boarded
the yacht with him.
Mr. Cleveland, almost as soon as
he boarded the yacht, retired to the
stateroom and fell into a heavy slum
ber. The intimation was made to
me that he might have received a hy
podermic injection ; certainly it was
deemed desirable that he should en
joy prolonged sleep before he yielded
himself to the surgeon, and he did
sleep until well into the next day.
When the time came the President
of the United States submitted him
self to the surgeon as calmly, as gent
ly, and as willingly as though he were
merely lying down for brief slumber.
Yet he knew that possibly from that
operation he might not recover, and
that it might be before many honrs
had passed that the people of the
United States would be overwhelmed
by a sudden sorrow, which is, perhaps,
the most grievous of any excepting
war that the country has hitherto been
compelled to endure.
He knew that a wife, beloved of all
the people, was wailing in eager ex
pectancy for his coming, but he did
not know nor did the surgeons what
might be the revelation of the next
few moments for her. Those who have
seen Mr. Cleveland in trying emergen
cies have recalled
HOWPERKECTLYTHE MASTER OK HIMSELF
and of his emotions lie is. His phy
sicians have thus seen him before, but
they were amazed by the tender con
fidence and the resignation to what
ever might happen with which he
composed himself for their adminis
trations. It was deemed advisable to use gas
as an anesthetic rather than ether,
because the operation was to be such
as would entail severe hemorrhages,
which might possibly lead to the flow
of blood into the windpipe. By using
gas recovery would be almost instan
taneous, whereas ether entails much
SI
6
'.IV
slower recovery, so that in case of
such a hemorrhage there might be
suffocation. The President yielded
easily to the anaesthetic, and tbe sur
geons began their task of awful re
sponsibility. The operation did not
require very long, but it entailed the
cutting away of a considerable part of
the upper jaw bone u-xm one side,
the instrument loring through the
bone and tissue as far as the orbital
plate.
The operation was thorough. The
physicians believe that they have re
moved ail of the diseased tissue and
bone, although in doing it the re
moval of so much of the jaw as that
was entailed. Of course in doing
this teeth were extracted, so that the
physicians were truthful when they
afterward faid that the president had
had some teeth pulled out while he
was on Mr. Dene-diet's yacht.
Such an operation as this entails
profuse hemorrhage, and after the
DISEASED TISSUE WAS kEMoVF.O
the surgeons speedily dressed the
wound and t!en. to use a profession
al term, "plugged'' it. That is to say,
they parked the cavity made by the
knives and saws witli antiseptic cot
ton, so that it might be healed speed
ily and so as to prevent great loss of
blood. It is the truth to say that
there were suspicious that the disease
might be of that malignant type whit h
is called sarcoma, another form of the
same disease which brought General
Grant, with beautiful pathos, to his
deathbed. There i now encourage
ment that it may not be that trouble,
that the complaint, whatever it is, is
not beyond the power of surgical
science to control.
Mr. Cleveland icrovered from the
shock even better than the physicians
had dared to hope lie would. He
was kept in bed, so treated that he
slept most of the time and after four
days', absence, during which the coun
try was wondering where he was, it I
was deemed safe and advisable to per
mit him to land at Gray Gables. The
treatment indicated was absolute rest
and such mental diversion as Mr.
Cleveland's favorite recreation, fish
ing, afforded.
It became necessary, however, for
the president to return to Washing
ton, and that journey and the neces
sity of living in Washington
during the heated spell gave Mr.
Cleveland's phvsician very great
anxiety.
PHYSICIANS NOT DECIDED.
It was, of course, noticed that Dr.
Bryant who was constantly at Gray
Gable, accompanied Mr. Cleveland
on his journey to Washington, and
was with him much of the time there.
It has been said that the extranr.
dinary and unexplained departure of
-Mr. Cleveland from Washington was
not the act of a president who realized
the desperate situation of the country.
but Mr. Cleveland did realize it. He
almost rebelled at the command of
his physician. He knew his depar
ture would be misconstrued, but he
also knew that not from him at least
or those around him could the reason
for that departure be set forth.
The physicians, who have been
talking among themselves about this
sorrow, are not yet decided what it
was which, lurking in the president's
blood, caused disease of tissue and
bone which had eaten up through the
roof ol the mouth to the orbital plate.
The quick recovery from the opera
tion gives, as each day passes, in
creased hope that it is not that dread
and mysterious enemy which physi
cians scarcely dare to name. There
have been some fears that it was ;
there is even now anxiety, which is
daily growing less and less, lest it
may recur and require the knife and
heroism again.
But there is more encouragement
this week than there was last, far
more than was the case when the
president, being warned, departed
from Washington to the seashore
again.
