REPORTS MORE FAVOURABLE DANGER STILL PRESENT (Australian and X.Z. Press Association) LONDON, Sunday. A specialist, writing in the “Evening Standard,” says the bulletins of the last few days have been much more favourable than would have been expected, considering how seriously ill the King was a week ago. with his heart weakness of which there has been no mention recently. Apparently this is not causing so much tx’ouble. This means that the Royal patient has a better chance of fighting a fresh threat of empyema, or a collection of pus in the pleural cavity. On the other hand, tlj£ King’s temperature shows that the danger of such a development is by no means past. Other medical opinions quoted by the Central News Agency connect the rise in his Majesty’s temperature with the absorption of toxins from the congested area of the luug. The medical correspondent of the “Sunday Express” emphasises the nopefulness of the fact that there is no mention of a collection of fluid in the lung cavity.
