Murphy, one of the attending physicians, said this morning: “Colonel Roosevelt’s wound is more serious than we at first thought. He should be in a hospital bed. not in a railway coach.. W» will make an X-ray examination at one?. lam not. of course, prepared to say now just how serious his injury is." As soon as Colonel Roosevelt is sufficiently recovered he will gij to his home in Oyster Bay. He will not continue his campaign according to Dr. Terrell, the colonel's private physician. > X-Ray Pictures Made “Colonel Roosevelt has just come from the operating room wher#. another set of X-ray plates were made,’’ said Dr. Terrell, in * formal statement. “These plates are now being developed. Drs. Ten? roll, Murphy and Sayle were present when the plates were made. Arthur Dean Bevan is expected at the hospital later. i i “So far as we know now the later X-ray developed nothing with reference to Colonel Roosevelt s condition. His condition is norite mal. He feels tine. There will be no serious consequences. “As soon as Colonel Roosevelt recovers sufficiently he will taken to his home in Oyster Bay. He will not go on the road again. ” Dr. Sayle supplemented the statement, saying: “If the doctors decide lhal it is necessary to probe for t he bullet in Colonel Roosevelt's body, it looks now as if nothing more than a lo cal anaesthesia will be necessary."
