Views of the President


NEW YORK, Aug ga correspondent who
accompanied the President through New Eng
land, gives the following as from the President
and members of the cabinet:
The President says that the Republican plat
form of Ohio has been spread over too much
ground. and that as both parties have endorsed
his Southern policy. the result of t he elections
cannot be taken as an expression Of opinion on
his course. BE does not anticipate violent par
tisanship by the Democrats in Congress. The
Democrats, doubtless. will elect the Speaker,
but when Legislation begins their cohesion will
be lost. The army appropriations will probably
be promptly voted without partisan opposition,
and his messageimay recommend that power
be given the executive to increase companies In
regiments to given maximum, which would
preclude any increase in the number of off,
GERS
The order prohibiting oficeholders from par
ticipating in party organizations is due as much
70 Evarts as to Schurz, and on this topic Evarts
intends to deliver an address in New York this
fall. Key appears to be in entire harmony
with the administration policy.
The Extra Session.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 57.-A cabinet officer
said today that there was not the slightest pro-
liability of any change in the intention of the
President to call an extra session of Congress
on the 10Th of October.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette
makes it plain that something more than one
oyer-hearty dinner was the cause of Senator
Morton's illness. Since the 9TH of June he
had been on the wing, travelling upward of
5000 miles by rail, steamer and stage-coach.
He crossed the alkali plains of the Central
Pacific during the hottest days of the season, a
trip which Frustrated some of the Senator'S
companions. His journey to the Pacific coast
was one continued ovation, which was kept
up wherever he went, even to Puget Sound.
In single day he rode eighteen miles in an
open carriage and 270 miles by boat and by
rail, changing cars three times and steamers as
often. he was always making speeches, one
of which was two hours long. At the same
an elaborate speech which he had been invited
to deliver in Ohio on his return home, wrote an
article for the North American Review, and
performed the work for which the Commission
visited Oregon! What right had an invalid to
60 through all that without expecting to pay
the penalty?

HAzELToN,. Aug. N.-Lindeman, Skeer g.
10. 8 three colleries at Stockton will resume
work tomorrow, practically on the same terms
rs those under which the men of Pardee g Co.
have been working during the strike. These
te1ms provide for the restoration OF the 125 per
cent. reduction in September, the advance in
the price of coal having warranted this action.
g. T. Schemes mines at Beaver Meadow re-
sumed to-day, the 12A per cent having been
restored, with the understanding that on the
first of September the wages shall be con-
reducing to the old basis on a sliding scale.
This arrangement virtually ends the strike in
the Lehigh regions. The difference of the
plans pursued by 1.-THE different companies
shows an absence of combination on the part
OF the operators.
