evidence of growing weakness and new
complications IN bis disease which leaves
ali in despair Nothing has been read

made to him iCr the past twenty-tour
hours. His stomach retained small
portion of nourishment IN the
iornoon, but elected everything given in
the evening. He no longer takes any
interest in what is going on around him,
and only Graves the presence OF his own
family. He asked his brother-ln-law,
Colonel Holloway, yesterday, ii the phy-
sicians had given him up. lie may last

FAMILY QUARRELs.


The Presiden: has been caught in q
snsp. He invited the Pennsylvania DEL
egation to name person for the Eng
lish Mission. They responded TO the
courteous invitation by sending IN the
name of the venerable Cameron.
This WAS too much for the Presl-
dent. He couldn't wlg-waggle Simon,
SO there is muss IN the family.
A delegation ol Pennsylvsnisns
called on the President yesterday, asking
MIN TO do something either IN the way OF
nominating Cameron or OF modifying
the civil service order, so rs to help them
along in the Pennsylvania election. de
was stubborn and refused TO move peg
i'm either direction. The delegation was
mad and withdrew from the White
House and congregsted into q sort OF an
indignation meeting on the pavement IN
front of the Presidents mansion, and, as 8
defiant reply to the Presidents stubborn
ness, adopted II resolution requesting
Roscoe Conkling 10 canvass their State.
Mr.. Conklng was called upon with the
request TO go over and hel p them, but de-
crined to do So alleging that bis post
now was in the Senate chamber. Shrewd
Roscoel he knew very we'll that defeat
was inevitable in the Keystone State,
and he didn't propose to make 1t his tu-
neral.
MAD STATESMAN.
The most irste man IN Washington is
Stanley Matthews. He has grown quite
irritable since the Ohio election. He is
sensitive to newspaper criticism. The
reporter of city paper published state
ment made by Zach Chandler in refer
ence to Stanley's hotel bills during the
electoral Count, which went to show that
the brother in-lsw of the intended Presi
dent had gone pretty deep into the funds
of the campaign committee. Matthews
picked up the paper while sitting in his
seat in the Senate Chamber. He read
the article and grew mad. He posted q
message after the newspaper man. with a
request that he appear in his presence
Immediately. The reporter responded to
the summons, and with nat in hand pre-
sented himself to the choleric Senator,
and desired TO know the object. of the
cali. IL want to tell you," yelled the
Senator as he sprsng to his feet and
shook his cenched fist in the face of
the frightened reporter, ".hat you
are id scoundrel" Aud overcome
with the ferceness of his anger, fell back
into his seat, elevated his judicial boots
10 the top OF the desk in front of him,
threw back his Senatorial head, dsrted
CLEANS of tre and vengeance from his
electoral eyes, while from between his
