CONDITION OF MRS. ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
CHICAGO, July A.-A Post and Mail
correspondent has recently visited Mrs.
Abraham Lincoln at the private retreat
for the insane located at Batavia, Illi-
nois, where she resides, and finds her
condition unchanged. The supsrintend-
ent in charge was unwilling % express
an opinion, but evidently didn't think
the prospects for ultimate recovery en-.
'couraging. Mrs. Lincoln is surrounded
with every comfort, and is visited ev-
cry week by her son, Robert, Of this
city, to whom she seems to have be-
come reconciled. She is very quiet,
and, although her vagaries are perhaps
increasing, she would scarcely be con.
sidered insane by casual observer.
THE INJUNCTION
obtained by the Police Commissioners to
restrain the city authorities from inter-
fering with their prerogatives, was
argued before Chief Justice McAllister,
and at the conclusion OF the argument
he took the case under advisement, and

A Sharp IAtsf Swoeeeds tn Gstting 81 S6
Emile Hickey, woman residing on
Scott street in Covington, was last night
robbed Of considerable sum OF money in
simple yet ingenious manner.
She had $175 in greenbacks In her pos
session, which she desired to. put in the
care Of Mrs. Mary Cunningham, who
lives at No. 1S West Third street, in this
city. Mrs. Hickey came over yesterday
and gave the colored woman the money.
Sam McKibben, man about five feet ten
Inches jim height, light complicated, curly
sandy-colored hair, was present in the
room at the time. He took the money,
and to all appearances looked The trunk
alter having put in the money.
McKibben, however, did not, it is sup
posed, lock the trunk, but merely turned
the key, which he handed over to the
woman. He then left, and after the Ia
dies had gone, returned, it is supposed,
about nine O'Clock last night, and, lifting
up the lid of The trunk, abstracted the
roll of greenbacks. McKibben, after bis
successful attempt at robbery, immedi-
ately jumped the city and lett, as is sup
posed, for the Western States.
Information was left with the author RI
ties of this city, and the officers are at
work, hunting up the case. 1t is very
doubtful, however, whether McKibben
will ever be captured.

PREPARING FOR RESUMPTION.

WASHINGTON, July 14.--It is not gener-
ally known that the act approved JAN
uary II, 1875, to provide for the resump-
tion OF specie payments, authorizes the
Secretary Of the Treasury to increase
the volume of five per cent. bonds to the
extent Of $685., 100000, IL necessary, to
prepare for resumption contemplated by
the act, but a careful examination OF the
law shows that such is q fact.
THE P. M. G.. ON POLITICAL CONTRIBU-
TIONs.
The Republican Congressional Execu-
tive Committee experience considerable
difficulty in procuring money for polit-
ical purposes from clerks and employee
in the several departments here. Laat
year Postmaster General Jewell refused
to allow his clerks to be assessed for
political purposes, and this year he has
taken the same stand and will not per-
init circulars from committees calling
for contributions to be distributed
through his department.
While he has declined to give any ad.
vice to Postmasters throughout the
country who have been called upon tor
contributions, the Postmaster General
wishes 1t distinctly understood that a
failure to respond to q call Of the Com
\
to their prejudice nor be considered a
cause for removal. Mr.. Jewell says that
PoBtmasters and other officers have un-
doubted right to contribute money for
political purposes il they prefer 80 to DO,
but that the influence Of his department
will not be used IN any degree to In
fuence such contributions.

house building. He submitted the unani-
nous report Of the committee, composed
OF seven prominent architects, appointed
by the City Council to examine the stfuc.
ture and report as to Its safety. This
report says that the foundations Of the
building are frm and In safe condition,
and the walis as level as in any building
OF such size.
A small part Of the stone is imperfect
and can be replaced ut small COST, bu,
the material used generally 10 sound

tail the one made by the Commission
appointed by Secretary Bristow some
weeks ago, and the local commission as
sert that as they have had much expe
rience In building ON Chicago soil, they
are bester qualified to judge as to tht
security of the building, than the treas
ury commission. The Secretary in
formed MIR. Farwell that while he was
clearly Of opinion that the walls should
be torn down he would not assume the
responsibility OF ordering this to be
done, nut would let the matter resl
until Congress assembled for such &C
ton as they might see proper 70 take.
