The President's Condition.
OFFICIAL BULLETINS.
8 :30 A. M.
Tlio President slept most of the night
awakening at intervals of half an hour to
an hour. On first awakening there was
as there has been for several nights past
some mental confusion which disappear
ed when he was fully roused and occa
sionly he piuttered in his sleep. The
symptoms have abated this morning as
yesterday morning. Pulse, 108; temper
ature, 99.1; respiration, 17.
t'J :30, P. M.
At the morning dressing of the Presi
dent, it was found that pus from the par
otid swelling had found its way through
the ear and was also discharging through
the incision made in the swelling. llis
wound loojv.s as well as it has done for
some days past. His pulse and tempera
ture are at present higher than at same
time yesterday. He continues to take
liquid food. We regard his condition as
critical. Pulse, 118; temperature, 100;
respiration 18.
6 :30, p. M .
The President's condition has not
changed materially since the last bulletin
was issued. He continues to take by the
mouth liquid food prescribed, and occa
sionally asks for it. Since yesterday
forenoon, commencing at i 1 :30, eneinata
has again been given at regular intervals,
as a means of administering stimulants as
well as nutrition. They are retained
without trouble. Pulse, 116; tempera
ture, 99.9; respiration, 18.
Blaine to Bowel!, at 10, p. m.: While
the President has made no gain to-day.
his loss of ground has been less in the
judgment of the physicians than was
feared l ist night. In this aspect there is
a slight feeling of encouragement, or at
least a rag of hope. The adverse symp
toms are still manifest aud the one favor
able indication of swallowing and digest
ing liquid food continues. Two or three
limes during the day lie has asked for
nourishment. He has spoken intelligent
ly aud volunlairily, and throughout the
dty his mind lias been less affected than
yesterday. The expected relief to the
parotid swelling from the discharge
through the ear has not been realized.
The situation is one of great gravity and
danger.
At a Union meeting of prayer for the
recovery of the President, yesterday, at
Christian Church, Washington, It was
decided to ask all the churches in the
land to observe to-morrow, Sunday, as a
day of humiliation fasting and prayer for
the recovery of our President. It is un
derstood that the proposition meets the
approval of the President's family.
