KALLoCH CONvALEsCING.
Wild Rumors Regarding His Condition
for Political EiEeet-ProbabIlltIe that
DeYonng will be Released ON Bail.


SAN Francisco, August 9O.-Last nights
Eraminsr contained extracts from Kal.
loch'S writings and speeches within the
last three years, advocating the cause Of
the Chinese and strongly denounCing Irish
Catholics and German agitators, and Bit
terly inveighing against Kearney and his
Sand Lot followers. This naturally inter.
fered with the determination previously
expressed by many to vote for KalloCh and,
In order 10 counteract the impression cre-
ated thereby, rtlmors were started this
morning that the intense heat had acted
unfavorably on Kalloch, and that he was
in q critical condition. By 8 o'clock, des.
pite the physicians report that he was
rapidly convalescing, q report was started
that he way dying.
Your correspondent accordingly visited
KalloCh's son at Metropolitan Temple.
Young Kalloch said his father was doing
remarkably well, and could, IL necessary,
be out on the street in another week; that
the lower bullet might be extracted next
week, but thatno attempt would be made
for some time TO extract the breast bullet.
Unquestionably Kalloch could make
more political capital for the Kearneyites
dead than alive, and the more outspoken
among the party express a desire he would
die. Every day he improves his party
loses votes. This community Is extremely
tickle.
On the eth Of May Workingmen huzzaed
for thel Chronicle and denounced the Call,
and now the reverse. Chronicle carriers
acknowledge the paper has lost circulation,
but consider it will recover after the cleo
tons.
On Monday or Tuesday DeYoung will
doubtless be let out on bail, unless public
opinion changes greatly. Meantime the
grand jury will find true bill against De.
Young, and on trial Of the case the chances
will be decidedly against him.
Glenn's enemies sought to entangle him
by inquiring whether, Il elected, he would
grant DeY Young's pardon. Glenn natural
ly declined to answer at present. Glenn's
chances for the Governorship are fair,
The Workingmen have lost the best
chances for the city Government, and
this depresses stocks although news from
the mines Is favorable.

NATIONAL DlSR CIRCULATION.


FALL RIVER, MASS, August S0.-A large
and enthusiastic meeting Of weavers was
held tonight to hear the report OF the
committee instructed few nights ago to
ask the manufacturers for an increase in
wages Of fifteen per cent. As no answer
has been received, the question arose Of
inaugurating a general strike, twas finally
decided to defer the strike until more
perfect organization could be effected by
the operatives, The carders, who held q
similar meeting, adopted practically the
same course, appointing . committee o!
four TO consult with the weavers and
spinners, and adjourned for one week.

0uR city schools reopen their doors this
morning for their fall and winter term,
and hundreds OF children who have been
enjoying the summer vacation will take
their places once more in the various
rooms Of the different Ward buildings,
Wheeling is justly proud Of her schools.
The exhibits made at Philadelphia in the
Centennial year show how they rank
above the average Of public schools
throughout the country, and the closing
public exercises in June last were OF q
character to impress upon spectators the
conviction that it is not only possible, but
quite common, to turn out schol-
AB educated up to a high standard
Of intelligence. Seeing that the schools
possess this capacity it is a pity that a
larger per cent OF the youth Of the city Of
school age do not enjoy their advantages.
OF course the hard times account for q
certain amount Of absenteeism, but now
that times are growing better, and now
also that school books have become SO
much cheaper, under the contract just
made by the Board Of Education; it seems
IS II the average attendance this yeal
ought to begreater than for some time past
Surely it is the duty OF parents who can
possibly dispense with the services Of
their children to sec that they are
in the precious hours Of their youth
Afforded an opportunity to secure the ad-
SRntages Of the schools. To withhold
these advantages at the proper age is to
starve and stunt the childs mind for life,
and do 1t perhaps an irreparable injury.
Give the boys and girls a fair chance in the
race for life by developing their natural
powers with elementary education, and
thus awaking a desire for the knowledge
that enables them to properly understand
all questions that bear upon their interests
and duties in life.

New YORK, August 3O.-The events Of

Of much importance. As rule the Mon.

week, and call loans commanded com.
mission Of l-S2 per cent per diem, in addi.
ton to the highest legal rate Of interest;
but near the close Of the week the market
became easier, and the prevailing rates
were 5a6 per cent, with exceptions at the
lower figures. Foreign Exchanges were
weak, and rates were reduced to 81 81 Ia
4 S33. Government Bonds were lower
early in the week, but fully recovered the
decline later on. Railway and miscella-
neous speculation was active and dull at
intervals. The course Of prices was de-
cidedly irregular, and there were frequent
spells OF firmness and depression. The
chief interest centered in Granger Shares,
Lake Shore, Erie and Coal Stocks. At the
opening the market exhibited tirmness,
aud prices advanced to per cent, but
this wss followed by periods Of depres-
sion, and q decline Of to a per cent took
place, the stocks above mentioned, as well
as the Michigan Central and Kansas Paci-
&c, being conspicuous in the downward
movement. Toward the close the general
list was frmer, and showed recovery Of
