Kiev, Russia, Sept. 16.—Physicians attending Premier Stolypin who-was shot Thursday ni£ht during a per formance in the municipal theater, made another examination of their patient today and announced" that his progress toward recovery was satis factory.

Crowds representing all classes thronged the doors of the hospital anxiously scanning the bulletins posted by the physicians. Patriotic demonstrations in the city are frequent.

During the morning Professor Zeld ler, who has been summoned from St. Petersburg, reached the hospital and after Hn examination and consultation with the other physicians decided that the treatment had been satisfactory and that the chances were favorable for the patient's recovery. He also concluded that an operation for the extrication of the bullet could be per*' formed with safety. A bullet!^ Issued by the physicians this afternoon Btates: "M. Stolypin's condition is satisfac tory. His temperature is normal and the Improvement continues. If the present progress continues the patient will be restored to health in three weeks."
