Indications of Marked Improvement Yesterday and the Total Ab
sence of Any Symptoms of Peritonitis, Septic Poisoning or Nausea
Cause Hope to Grow Brighter and Stronger as the Hours Go
By This Day Will Probably Be Decisive Mr. Mc-
Kinley Says: ki Will Get Well." '.. y
3 A. M. There Has Been No Change.
President Mrlvinlrv's condition yesterday showed marked improvement.
Xo symptoms of peritonitis or blood poisoning on of inflammation from the liullet whieh is.
lodged in the muscles of his back were discovered.
The physicians and surgeons in attendance on the wounded President, after a conference in the
jiflernoim, and a thorough examination, agrtied that the improvement, in, his condition and the absence
of nausea or evidence of peritonitis justified high hopes of his recovery.
Jt was noted with extreme gratification that his pulse had decreased from 140 at 4 o'clock Sat
urday afternoon to 128 at the same hour Sunday, just forty-eight hours after the President was
wonnded.
The reduction of one a,nd one-half degrees in his temperatnre during the same period was also
noted as n most favorable symptom.
The most hopeful bulletins were sent out from the JHlburn Mansion during the day. The people
of the 1'nited States were told that their President's condition was better than had been hoped for.
At the same time it was made plain that the President is by no means out of danger. Periton
itis may develop yet or septic poisoning set in. which would mean that the President's noble battle for
life had just begun.
.It is conceded that if Mr. McKinley passes another twenty-four hours as well he will be virtually
out of danger.
Doctor McBurney, one of ihe most eminent surgeons in the United States, was called in consul
tation yesterday. After making a thorough examination o the 'Stricken magistrate and on being re
quested by the President to tell him his exact condition, Doctor McBurney replied that the absence of
nausea or any indication of peritonitis, or septic poisoning were niosthopef ul symptoms, and that the
patient's general condition was most satisfactory. On the other hand, Doctor McBurney stated, the
President's heart was inclined to be weak and the very serious' nature of the wound in the stomach
made his chances for recovery about even.
Then I will get well," "replied the President, laconically but firmly.
Mrs. McKinloy'B fortitude and strength astonish those who know her best. She was permitted
to see her husband once yesterday, and was overjoyed to find his mind clear and Irs iv ntli in
creased. She took a long ride in the afternoon, returning much invigorated.
ltuITalo. X. Y.,.Sept. 8. Through this (jit'iet, peaceful Sunday every word that
came from the big vine-clad house In Delaware avenue,, iaf whichthe stricken..
"Ohlcf magistrate of the" nation lies battling' for life. Was reassuring "and" 'to
night the chances of hlaj-ecovery are o greatly improved" that" all of 'fhosewbo-'
liar kept the "patient vigil at his bedside feel strongly 'that hfs life'ivllf be
i-pa red.
The developments of last night and to-day we're dreaded, but hour after
hour passed and the distinguished patient, struggling there beneath the watch
ful eyes of physicians and "trained nurses, showed not an unfavorable symp
tom. Five times dnring the day the eminent doctors and surgeons assembled
for consultation and each time the verdict was unanimous J hat' what change
had occurred was -for the better.
Xot the slightest premonitory symptom of eritonItIs appeared, and the
fresh hope born .with the morning grew stronger and stronger as the day
advanced, until toward evening the confidence expressed In the President's, re
covery seemed almost too" sanguine.
DOCTOR McBURNEY CALLED DM;
FINDS NO UNFAVORABLE SYMPTOMS.
Doctor Charles McBurney, the famous New York surgeon, who had been
summoned in consultation, after a .thorough examination, iu which he said he
had found not a single unfavorable symptom, joined in the last afternoon bul
letin, which declared that the President's condition was satisfactory to all the
physicians present.
It is not strange, therefore, that the Vice President, the members of the.
Cabinet nnd other distinguished visitors who called came" away with lighter
hearts. and buoyant tread and gave expression to the most optimistic- senti
ments. The encouraging news spread over the Exposition city with great rapidity
andthotisands came in carriages, In street cars and afoot to learn for them
selves of the faith and confidence that existed about the Mliburn house. The
brightness of the day, with its cool, bracing atmosphere, only, added to the
general cheerfulness and when a score of newsboys ' darted Into the crowd
.ibout 6 o'clock shouting. "Extra! The President Will Live," It was with diffi
culty, that they could suppress the shouts of thanksgiving, that rose in their
throats.
Aud the newspaper men. many of whom have been at their posts for forty
eijrht hours continuously, remained steadfastly throughout the day in the little,
whlte-wnllpd tents across the street from the h'ouso where the country's Pa
tlent lay, and flashed the news oyer land and sea.
PRESIDENT IS BY NO
MEANS OUT OF DANGER.
And yet, despite all this optimism, the President Is b.v uu means out of
danger. Xot one of his physicians, not one of his advisers' who is admitted to
the inner councils, has the temerity to go so far as to declare that, he Is. But
If lie continues. to Improve for one more day the danger of peritonitis, which is
- most dreaded, will have practically disappeared
Yesterday, one of the doctors thought forty-eight hours would be the limit
of the danger from that source, but his more, conservative colleagues believe at
least twenty-four hours; possibly thirty-six from this time, must elapse before
the possibility of peritonitis shall have vanished. That danger disposed of, still
other complications may arise. Blood poisoning might set in or an abscess
form where a bullet Is imbedded in .the muscles of the back. -
Thus far the ball of the. assassin, which is still In the body, gives the physi
cians no anxiety. But If the slightest Inflammation appears in the region of the
.leadit wlllbe Immediately extracted. Xo difficulty is anticipated In this re
gard! One of Edison's best. X-ray .machines and his most skillful and trusted
operator, Doctor JI. A. Knolls, nrrlved to-day. The batteries were charged and
the machine is ready for Instant use. "With Jt the physicians, say there is not
the slightest doubt that the ball can be located perfectly for an operation.

Mrs. McKinley is stronger to-day than
site has been Lefore In years. Doctor Hlxey,
Iq speaking of this fact, said that he was
not surprised only for the reason that he
had ceased to be surprised by Mrs. McKin
ley. Three times within a year, he said, she
has. returned from the very portal of death.
And now, at a moment when she might be
expected to collapse, she displays the true
qualities when she possesses.
At her' own request she went this evening
for an "extended drive, and when she re
turned she looked ten .years younger than
she did the day she cams to Buffalo.
This has been a solemn Sabbath In Buf
falo, all of the gaiety and the thoughtless
abandon that has marked the Exposition
during the summer having disappeared.
Prom the churcbes.lt la reported thatthera
were larger congregations to-day than have
been known before In years. And from ev
ery pulpit, without exception, prayers as
cended for the recovery of the President
of the United States. In many churches
special services were held. In that section
of the city where President McKinley Is
lying so grievously injured no bells were
aounded. This silent expression of care was
without request, for which reason it wal
the more highly appreciated.
All day long" crowds, always respectful,
have gathered as close to the' Mliburn horn
as the police lines would permit. These
crowds, too, were ever changing. Those
present were there for the purpose of re

She was in this city oil day Friday, the
day the President was fchot. hhe Mopped

Kmma Goldman had a friend In St. Louis
whoso name the police say Is Carl Dold.
but who was also known .as Carl Norman.
He was local agent for an anarchistic paper
published In Chicago. "While in. St. Louis
he roomed ut No. 1351 South Thirteenth
street", a house kept .by Sirs. Emma Rager.
The police say Dold brought Emmai- Gold
man there two- months ago, but' say they
do not know where from". She occupied
Dold's" former room when here Friday.
DoM left St Louis In July for Pittsburg,
where he Is said to be now. It, Is also sus
pected that, ho probably came to St Louis"
with Emma Goldman Friday.
The female anarchist is known to have
been with Dold in Pittsburg, a few days
ago. She lert there to go to ' Cincinnati.
She was there a short while and then came
to- St Louis, arriving Thursday night nnd
going Immediately to Dold's former room.

So far no expert has been able to decipher

TRACED. TO
TICKET BROKER'S OFFICE.
Detective Gulon has been working night
and day to locate the famous anarchist.
Other detectives have been aiding him.
One of these men traced her to Gildcr
slecve's ticket office.
A Glldereieeve business card was found.ln
the room which had been occupied by Emma
Goldman at No. 13ot South Thirteenth
street. At this place .Detective Guion ascer
tained that her intention had been to go
to Buffalo or Chicago. The landlady at tbl
number told a reporter, for. The Republic
lato Saturday afternoon that she knew'
nothing of Emma Goldman and that Dold.
or Norman, as he Is also known, departed

ported that he was In St Louis several
days ago, .but that he left here Just before
Emma Goldman arrived.
At the post office" In St. Louis, addressed
through the general delivery, is a letter'
to Emma Goldman, postmarked Pittsburg.
When, she left .Pittsburg, she left instruc
tions to forward her mall to her In St.'

come to th police of Buffalo that a mprr
acj" has been formed to take the life ot
Czclgosz. thr would-be arsasiln of Presd-
dent McKinley. Everj" effort will be mad
to prevent this plct from reaching Its fruition.-
Czolgosz occupied a cell on the third floor
at the city Jail. Here he was within sight -of
those passin; along that corridor, aad
It would have been po-Jslble for any o
who had' gained access to the Jail to kava
obtained a pistol shot at the anarchist;
The other occupant of the Jail are especial-

tunlties been given them thfy would bar's
takn his life.
To mak thin Impossible Czolgosx wu
secretly transferred from his cell to

the surface of the earth. Thla change ws
made without the' .knowledge of the patxol-men.-qr
