The following bulletin was issued just before Col. Roosevelt was taken to the special train which carried him to Chicago:
"Col. Roosevelt has a superficial flesh wound below the right breast with no evidence of injury to the lung.
"The bullet is probably lodged somewhere in the chest walls, because there is but one wound and no signs of any injury to the lung.
"His condition was so good that the surgeons did not try to locate the bullet, nor did they try to probe for it."
