spoken of ofas as more serious than the public supposed dr hamilton said the account wua us exaggerated garfield was nut not a well man by any W means calls but present symptoms was not alarming to a surgeon mere precautions ure are taken to prevent excitement ohp c cit in the case of tha a president than in an ordinary rase ease and these precautions are what may alarm a layman lay nian but the president Is getting along well ell and nature may be expected to jo do almost all that remains to he be done there will be no necessity for probing unless the tha healing of the wound Is ignot not healthful and indicates internal or concealed aupp suppuration inthe if the healing of the wound seems meent s to be natural and healthful nothing need be done washington july rayburne upon being shown shoun tile the statement of dr bliss published this morning to tile the effect that strong indications existed by m which aich the location of the ball will be exactly determined very soon it if they continue said that such was the fact or at least tile the suspicion heretofore entertained ot of its ita course were greatly strengthened lie he declined for professional fess ional reasons to enter cuter nt at length into a description of these indica eions it was thought best to awolt further developments of them they enforce the theory upon which the rase case has been conducted ton ducted front from the beginning will you make an effort to extract the ball soon not until it becomes necessary or until the patient Is ii so far recovered as to be able to sustain an operation with wilh out danger it it la Is in the anterior wall of the abdomen it Is not likely to give us liny trouble at it does it give the president pain where it ti the presidents President body just juat now is pretty sore from head to toes his feet find leis legs pain him find and his hack feels as if brok broken en in two while ilk his abdomen la Is orp of course ourse to tender nd ile he would probably rail fail to detect just now the exact spot of burette yo reness SA lue due to tho the bullet at least it would not do to depend upon such a reeling feeling do you expect speedy specify recovery 11 1
