DIR. MARsoN SIMS.
Physicians are inclined to the opinion that
the cablesram was sent by J. Marion Sims,
nj. d., but DIR. Tanner, who seemed pleased
with it, rather doubted that it had come from
that physician.

NFW YORK, August 2d-Dr. Tanner at 5
o'clock started out on his usual evening drive,
accompanied by physicians. He returned
at z.
He was very cross and peevish. He rested
on his cot and seemingly slept soundly for
some hours. AT 10 o'clock he arose and, un.
dressing, retired for the night, but did not
rest quietly, his stomach being out of order.
Gold Discoveries at the East.
New YORK, August 2d-Speaking of the
recent gold discoveries in the West, the Her.
dld says: The glorious climate of California
and contiguous States need no longer claim a
monopoly of gold mines. Every day claims
to auriferous lands in the northern counties
Of this State are being filed at Albany. Maine
and New Hampshire are reporting gold
bearing quartz, and even Jerseymen are said
to have struck lead. How much precious
metal from any of the new fnds has been re
ceived at assay Offices is not matter of COM
mon report, but it is of no particular conse.
quence to the general business of mining
that any should get there at all. The
pockets in which mining locators usually
ind their profits are situated in the clothing
of the people. The all-important thing is to
with several prominent names, y hole in the
ground and small printing press the East
can do Just as lively business in gold-mining
as the West. If there is really any paving
ore in the Eastern States, there are plenty of
men OF experience and means who are ready
to make the most of it.. But let not the am
ateur fortune-hunter make haste to give up
his modest situation and salary, shoulder
pick and start for the nearest rocky ground.
Still less let him press his savings bank book
upon some enterprising fellow who can show
stock in the yet undeve]oped mines.
solicifude for the Chinese.
New York, August 2d.-The Times COM
rnep fs fpllntys Tho 1oto
for getting rid of the Chinese in California is
to tax the Six Companies out of existence.
These companies are the guilds to which all
Chinese arriving in the Pacific States are at.
tached. 1t Is represented to the State Board
of Equalization, by memorial, that the Six
Companies 'have and hold absolute control
over the bodies and liberties of all the Chi
nese," and that therefore they must be ex-
tremely rich, and that instead of their being
asse ssed at moderate valuation, they
should pay taxes on 800, 200, 900, or some
such modest sum. OF course it is expected
that this excessive rate of taxation will be
resisted, but as this would only lead to the
seizure and confscation of Chinese prop.
erty in San Francisco, the desired end-the
eviction of the Chinamen-wouldb be reached
and the Chinese problem would be solved.

The Wimbledon Shooting AGair-Return
of C0lonel Bodlne.
New YORK, August 2d.-Colonel Bodine
has arrived. He is very decided in the
opinion that the whole story of the Wimble-
don affair would come out soon, as those who
did not act under his advice would be com.
PEELED to take the consequence of their action.
In this opinion other rihemen coinciied with
Colonel Bodlne, and said: We were very
decided ia the action we took, and some
of those who shot in the Hyde
Halford match did so with great
reluctance, being pushed on by friends who
went over with them. Particularly so in the
case of Brown and Rockwell Colonel
Bodine had great trouble with the profes-
sioDal element of the team-that is, Farrow
and Jackson The Colonel once more spoke

amount of anxiety but let me here say that
before the butts at Dollymount no men ever
behaved better than my gallant six. 1t was
their thorough use to discipline, in fact our
great organization, that won us the inter-
national match. In future we shall be
obliged to meet foreign teams on footing of
equality, both as regards guns and mark
manship. The Irish team shot splendidly !"
