FULL RECOVERY
IS ASSURED
Convalescence of President
Has Already Begun.
Physicians Attending the
Nation's Chief Are Confi
dent That He Will Soon
Be Well.
President McKlnley's complete re
covery from his wounds Is now assured,
according to the bulletins sent out from
Buffalo this afternoon by the attending
physicians.
Those at his bedside in the Milburne
home are positive in their statements
that he has now successfully passed all
danger, and unloss somo unforseen com
plications arise he will soon be a well
man.
The members of the president's cabi
net, under an agroement reached yes
terday with the doctors, will meet
around his bed on Friday afternoon at 3
o'clock to submit to him such matters of
official business as they deem necessary.
The cabinet members are rapidly leav
ing town, mostly to go to Washington,
but will bo back for the Friday meeting.
Senator Ilanna has left Buffalo, radi
ant with joy and proclaiming the fact
that all Americans should throw up
their hats ahd cheer, now that all ques
tion of the president's recovery is past.
Vice President Roosevelt left last
evening in very much the same frame of
mind. He probably will not return, as
he is not needed for Friday's conference,
and has duties elsewhere.
Many of the relatives of the president
have left, satisfied that there? was no
further cause for alarm. Mrs. McKln
ley was out driving, and is so completely
recovered herself that she is receiving
many callers.
The physicians are even leaving the
president's side. The Buffalo doctors
who have been in attendance on him
sinco the shooting are taking up the
cases of their regular patients again,
one of them only remaining constantly
with the president.
Dr. Parke, the most distinguished of
the physicians now attending the presi
dent, does not hesitate to say that tin;
patient is convalescent and would be
fully recovered in three or four weeks.
Brass Thief Implicates Others.
The case of Samuel Reeser, of Tama
qua, charged by the Philadelphia and
Reading Railway Company with steal
ing 0,000 pounds of brass, was called
before Judgo Becbtel at Pottsvllle, and

rest. They deny all the allegations.
