Secretary Gage Is Confident
Washington, Sept. 9.—The most favorable news
disclosed in Washington from Buffalo reached Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Ailes this morning from Secretary Gage over the long distance telephone. The
secretary said that the latest report of the physicians was eminently satisfactory
and that the president undoubtedly would get well. Secretary Gage expects to
return to Washington in a day or two and will be followed at intervals by other
members of the cabinet. It is not expected that any of them, with the possible
exception of Secretary Hay, will remain in Buffalo for any length of time.
Charles G. Dawes, comptroller of the currency,
one of the president’s closest personal friends, sent the following encouraging
telegram from Buffalo to a friend here: “The president’s condition is steadily
improving and his recovery seems almost certain.”
