SET-BACK MAY BE PART OF EBB AND FLOW OF DISEASE.
HIS MAJESTY LOSES SOME OF GROUND GAINED PREVIOUSLY. (United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.} (Received December 18, 1.15 pm.) LONDON. December 17. The latest bulletin justifies the view held at the Palace that any optimism must still be guarded and restrained. His Majesty, despite the natural sleep so stressed to-day, has to-night lost some of the ground he gained during the previous 36 hours. Naturally it is hoped that the check to his progress is only part of the ebb flow which must continue for some time, and that the set-back may be temporary. Yet the fact must be faced that nothing in the nature of steady progress has been achieved in the long and exhausting illness. Although three consecutive bulletins prior to to-night’s noted an improvement, this has not, it was emphasised to-night, been in any way marked. Furthermore, there have been periods in between in which the King’s condition fluctuated.—Australian Press Association.
