The daily changes in the president's
condition. Dr. Grayson said tonight,
while encouraging;, were slight and
could not always be clearly indicated
In a formal brief bulletin. For this
reason be departed from his usua
custom and supplemented the formal
bulletin with an oral statement of the
patient's condition.
Dr. Grayson said that the presi
dent's mind was active and that while
rest was desired, yet any important
matters demanding the president's
Attention might be attended to should
(he occasion demand it.
Many of the current reports as to
the president's condition were re
ferred to by Dr. Grayson during the
conference, but in all cases he stated
that he would stand on his bulletins.
It was intimated, however, that the
formal announcements might be sup
plemented from time to' time by oral
statements. After seeing the news
naoermen. Dr. Grayson Issued the
regular night bulletin.
Qalet Be Kafareed.
Dr. Grayson also said that if some
such eventuality arose he would give
a "reluctant consent" for the presi
dent to take the needed action. As
far as possible, however, the physi
cians attending Mr. Wilson will con
tinue to insist that he remain quiet
and not give his attention to govern
mental matters.
The day bulletin signed by Dr.
Grayson and Drs. Ruftin and Stttt,
the other physicians attending the
president, said:
-White house. Oct. 13. 11J, 12:15
P. M. The president's condition re
mains mucn the same as for the past
several days. His temperature, with
the exception of one day. pulse and
respiration rate, heart action and
blood pressure are normal and have
been so since the onset of his Illness.
His kidneys are functioning normally.

Rvaaora ot Denied.
This was the most Informative
statement issued since the president
became ill more than two weeks ago.
and the impression prevailed that the
details concerning bis condition were
given In lieu or specitic denials 01
the rumors current in Washington
that bis physical condition was such
that ha would be incapacitated from
attending to his official duties for
some time.
The attending physicians. It was
Indicated, will maintain their adopted
policy of not denying rumors or get
ting into any discussion concerning
them.
Whether the president is well
enough to perform his duties was re
ferred to briefly during an executive
session today of the senate foreign
relations committee In connection
with an effort to get action on
resolution by Senator Poindexter. re
publican. Washington, asking for a re
port regarding Chinese-Japanese rela
tions, but at the suggestion of Senator
Williams, democrat, of Mississippi,
consideration of thla resolution and
several others was postponed.
Aar Change W ill Be Reported.
Dr. Grayson announced that the
president's mind is clear and that he
is perfectly capable of forming In
stant Judgment on any matter that
might come up.
Dr. Grayson gave assurances that
If any material change occurred In the
president's condition the fact would
be made known.
Cool weaher is aiding President
Wilson's recovery. It Was said today
at the White House. The president's
physicians are Insistent, however, that
danger of a setback in his condition
can be averted only by complete rest
for an Indefinite period.
White House officials resented pub
lication of reports that the president's
condition was such that he could not
attend to his official duties should
matters of importance arise.
"The president could sign bills to
day if they were placed before him.
but we are not putting them before
hire." one official said.
Those close to the president said
they had every confidence that be

must continue to obey his physicians'
orders to remain in bed for "an exten

the utmost quietude and relaxation.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. II. D
Francis X. Dercum of t is city today
assailed Senator George H. Moses of
New Hampshire for hisastatement that
President Wilson had suffered a cere
brtl lesion and that concentration of
mind might reopen the lesion, with
fatal .esults.
"I will not disensa that report." said
Dr. Dercum. "It is one of the silly
rumors of which there are entirely too
many In circulation. It is nonsensical
beyond discussion. We cannot listen
to the opinions, predictions and
guesses of everyone ' who volunteers
some expression relative to the presi
dent s condition.
"I have my opinion," he. continued,

Island Professor Succeeds in Ro
fining Chanlmoogra Oil, Long
Known as Specific.
HONOLULU, T. H., Oct. 4. (Corre
spondence of the Associated Press.)
Announcement has been made here
that complete cures of leprosy are
being made at the Kalihl territorial
hospital in thia city and that within
the past few months 20 patients have
been paroled without one recurrence
of the disease.
Blood tests of the discharged pa
tients have revealed no trace of the
leprosy germ. Patients under treat
ment are showing marked improve
ment.
Chaulmoogra oil, obtained from the
seeds of the taraxogenes kurzil, for
50 years known as the specific for
leprosy, was the only medicine used
in effecting the cures, the oil having
been perfected by a refining process
discovered by Dr. A. L. Dean, pro
fessor of chemistry and president of
he University of Hawaii.
Dr. Harry T. Hollman. formerly In
charge of the leprosy investigation
station, became convinced that chaul
moogra was of great value In treat-
ng leprosy, but to obtain results it
was necessary to administer large
doses for a period of many months.
Dr. Hollman decided that If the oil
could be reduced to its essential prop
erties, it would be much more ef
fective. He took bis problem to Dr.
Dean.
The laboratories of the University
of Hawaii are refining ail the oil
given to the patients in capsule form
used at Kalihl hospital. The oil is
and also administered once each week
by intra-muscular Injections. The
work at Kalihl hospital Is supported
Jointly by the federal and territorial
governments.
MINERS HEAD FOR VALDEZ
New Platinum and Gold Deposits
"Reported Found.
SEWARD, Alaska. Oct. 13. (Spe
cial.) The recent discovery of plat
inum and the Incidental uncovering of
a number of promising new gold pros
pects in the vicinity of Valdes have
turned adventurous eyes in that di
rectlon.
The unsuccessful efforts of the
prospectors to conceal the fact of
their recent finds, combined with the
attempt of Valdex people to prevent
outsiders from securing any interest
therein have given the matter more
notice than it 'would otherwise have
received.
From the best information available
at present it seems that somo valu
able properties have been discovered.
but they have all been taken up by
local people. Anything in the nature
of a stampede would not be Justified
by present knowledge of conditions.

HONOLULU. T. H.. Oct. 1. (By
Mail.) General surveys of the sugar
cane situation on the four units of
the Hawaiian group indicate that the
sugar outturn next year will be be
tween C30.000 and C40.009 tons, as
against S01.000 tons this year. None
of the plantations have advanced def
inite estimates, but the casual esti
mates sent in this period glow with
the promise of bumper crops for the
coming harvest.
The island of Hawaii Is figured for
a crop of 20.000 tons more than usual.
Maul expects between .15,000 and
19.000 tons more, Oahu will break
even and perhaps a little more, while
Kauai is still doubtful of the likely
amount of gain.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. Another
three-hour attack on the Shantung
provision by Senator Norris, repub
lican, of Nebraska, and a ten-minute
speech of the same character by Sen
ator Borah, republican, of Idaho, con
stituted the sum of the senate's prog
ress today In its consideration of the
peace treaty.
Tomorrow the speech-making will
continue, and although some of the
leaders think a vote on the Shantung
amendment may be. reached Wednes
day, others are not so optimistic.
senator Norris. who had occupied
most of two previous sessions with
his Shantung speech, concluded today
after again assailing the accuracy of
statements made by President Wilson
in his western addresses and declar
ing that after the president had
acknowledged he was wrong, he had
gone on misstating the facts about
Shantung. .
' Errr Are Noted.
1 had assumed that although that
president had not made a Dublin cor
rection of the error, he would not re
peat it." said Senator N
Just a few moments ago I was given
an official copy of his speeches and
was dumbfounded to see that In four
other Instances after sending his tele
gram to me he repeated what he said
at St. Louis as to the reasons whv
Japan went into the war.
It is not with any comfort that T
call the attention of the senate to
tnese facts. I had assumed that after
the president had telegraphed me of
his error he would not make It again.
It Is hardly conceivable that he could
ave made the mistake at St. Louis.
et. after acknowledging to me that
he was wrong, he went on repeating
over ana over again. The truth
ill never overtake the He."
Senator Borah also declared Mr.
Wilson had been mistaken in his
statement that John Hay was secre
tary of state when the German rights
n Shantung were acquired.
wuotmg from the reports of mls-
lonarles in regard to conditions in
Oorea, Senator Norris declared It was
the purpose of the Japanese govern-
ent to drive Christianity out of
Asia and that the United States would
be aiding In that attempt if it acqui
esced in the treaty proposal to extend
Japanese rule over Shantung.
Lodge Speeek Delayed.
"I cannot see how Christian people
can read of conditions in Corea," he
said, "and then ask us to ratify this
treaty and not protest against a na
tion that carries on such work. It
brings us face to face with the fact
that we cannot afford to turn over
Shantung to tbe heathen country of
Japan.
"I am not a member of any church
or religious organization, but may my
lips be sealed with eternal silence
before I give official approval of an
act to stamp out the religion of Jesus
Christ and put paganism in its stead."
Chairman Lodge of the foreign rela
tions committee planned to speak
during the day on the Shantung
amendment, but he decided not to do
so because. of the time required by
Senator Norris to finish his address.
Mr. Lodge probably - will speak to
morrow and the leaders hope also to
make some progress in the reading
of the treaty text.

As the time approaches for the gen

The only one made public so far Is
that of tbe socialists. They publish
today in their party organ, the Hu

"We Accuse," which is spread across
columns of the front page.
The most striking passages deal with
