THE KING.
LESS FAVORABLE BULLETIN. PULSE STEADY. (By Cable.—Press Assn.—Copyright) (Australian Press Assn. —United Service). (Received This day, 11.15 a.m.) LONDON, December 27. A bulletin issued at 8.20 p.m. stated: — “Duiing to-day the King’s condition haa not been so satisfactory. There has been a disinclination to take nourishment, and strength is being less well maintained. The pulse remains steady.” DISTINCT CHECK. CONCERN AT SLOW PROGRESS. (Received This day, 1.15 p.m.) LONDON, December 27. The optimism of the past few days received a distinct check by to-night's unsatisfactory announcement from the Palace. The bulletin had a disquieting effect at the Palace, where there is a less! confident feeling. It is known that some disappointment was caused by the slight character of the progress over Christmastide. The doctors all along emphasised that progress must he very slow, but it is now possible to state that the progress is even slower than anticipated. Several times the bulletin stated that the King’s condition is the same, meaning that for the moment there is no improvement. To-night’s bulletin indicates that His Majesty has now sustained a definite check. This, in his very weakened condition, becomes a matter of some concern.
