He was in the room more than two minutes, shortly after this the Precident awoke. As he

I told aniel to bring the
jlight. a lighted candle which habitually sat i)ehind the screen near the door. When the

Elberon,' Sept. 20. The autopsy has been hi progress for more than an hour. One of tne first discovering made was a large clot of blood in the heart, which corroborates the opinion of the at
tending surgeons regarding the immediate cause
ol death. . The autopsy of the President's body commenced about 5 o'clock, and was not concluded until nearly 8. A large crowd of persons assem
bled at the Elberon Hotel to hear tne results. Dr.
Bliss stated the autopsy had been a very tedious one, and that the time occupied in searching for the ball alone was three quarters of an hour. The Poctor faid Mrs. Garfield was not much re
lieved since the autopsy, iuasmnch as it resulted
in the establishment ol the fact that the patient s death was inevitable. The Poctor stated
that - the farther- point of the ball
was in , a . somewhat blunt or battered
condition, caused by the force with w hich it
truck the rib, while in other respects its original hape was not altered. Pr. BIlss took charge of
the bullet, and sealed it for preservation until the Courts should reouire its production. The
State of New Jersey has issued a permit for the removal of the body.
