Fever Subsides at
Night
CHICAGO, Oct. 17. Throughout a
day of unbroken calm Colonel Roose.
yelt lay in his bed in Mercy Hospital
with virtually no variation of his con
dition. ) It was a day of waiting, with the
ever.present possibility of complica
tions, but with lessened fears on the
part of those wHo were on the watch.
Colonel Roosevelt appeared to have
recovered from the shock of the bul
let, which for a time drained his vital
ity, and so far as a casual observer
couldf detect he was in his normal
condition, but there was no relaxation
in the strict regime and his physicians
said he was not out of danger.
Colonel Roosevelt's physicians were
discussing among themselves tonight
the time necessary for the Colonel to
remain in the hospital. It was thought
it might be safe for him to leave for
Oyster Bay Monday or Tuesday but
not even a tentative decision was
reached.
The clinical record for the ' day
showed some variation in temperature
pulse and respiration, but only such
changes, the physicians said, as were
normal in the case of a person suffer
ing from a bullet wound. The hourly
record told of a slight fever in the
morning and a sub-normal tempera.
ture toward the end of the "day.
IDAHO STATESMAN, AFTER LONG
ILLNESS, DIES IN WASHINGTON
CONDITION SERIOUS FOR MONTHS
Senator Collapsed When Opposing
Penrose Resolution Physicians
Said He could Not Recover
WASHINGTON, Oct. '17. Senator
Heyburn, or Idaho, died at his apart
ment in this city at 7 : 50 o'clock to
night. Disease of the heart, compli
cated with kidney trouble, is the
cause assigned by the attending phy
sicians. While his death came as a surprise
to the public, as his trusj condition
has been concealed throughout his
long illness, which began in August,
his family and physicians have been
aware for some time that he could
probably not) sujrvive. Overwork is
given as the cause of his illness.
For more than a year Senator Hey
burn has been in poor health and in
that tims has suffered several phys
ical collapses. -The last occurred Au
gust 24, when he) was opposing the
Penrose-Archbold investigation reso
lution. Since that date Senator Hey.
burn has never been well, though his
condition has varied from tlfte to
time.
