OF no intrinsic value. The round house
was frame structure of six stall capaci-
ty. One locomotive had Just pulled OUT,
and started east with freight train.
Five other locomotives we're in the hou. e
but the fire was too quick for the boys
and they had too pass through the fiery
furnace. The dry structure with the oil
mixed in made it burn like kerosene
lamp. Loss on building and tools about
$1,000. The locomotives were worth
about $685. 600. and were damaged to the
amount of $4,000. They looked as if
they were wrecks, but the railroad men
knew better. They are principally hurt
externally. The insurance carried BY the
company covers the loss. Superintend-
ent Hobart and MIR Rupert of the Fargo
shops arrived this evening, and will to-
morrow get the locomotives out of their
wrecked position. They are more dam
aged than was at first supposed. 1t will
take $4,000 to repair them. A tempor-
ary farme round house will be built at
ance. and in the spring permanent
brick round house and machine shops.

FRANCE AND TURKEY.

Il is evident that the African ambition
of France is not destined to be gratified
without larger sacrifice than was at first
contemplated. The action of Turkey in
sending an army of $4,000 from Tripoli
into Tunis, and thereby stimulating fresh
uprisings against the French, has already
led to quarrel between the two powers
which may very easily drift into war.
The French Government indeed appears to
expect some serious trouble, since it is
talking of sending 10000 troops to Tunis
to protect North Africa. OF course the
difficulty with Turkey is not to be
measured by The direct offensive power of
the Porte. 1t is improbable that the
Turkish force in Tripoli could offer any
serious resistance to the French arms, but
whoever NEEDLES with Turkey at this
time is taking upon his shoulders the
heavy burden of the Eastern Qrestion.
and can never tell where the com.
plications will end. II France goes
to war with the Porte on the Tu-
nisian question, it is possible that
the Porte may find allies. moreover.
Sacramento daily record-union., 1881-07-08

Italy is deeply resenting the Iiunis expedi-
ton, and if she had help, even the inefii-
cient help of the TuiSs, she might find it
necessary to assuage the popular indigna-
tion by going to war. And if Italy should
go to war it is by no means certain that
Germany would remain neutral. Russia,
too, would inevitably rouse herself at the
mention of the Eastern Question, and
England could not long keep out OF the
quarrel In short, all the elements are so
combustible that France must proceed very
warily if she expects to keep out of
trouble, and she must not make the mis-
take of thinking that she can afford to go
to war with the Porte merely because the
Ottoman power is broken. Constantine
pie is still the depository of the keys of
the Temple of Janus, and the French are
likely to find this out to their cost if they
do not proceed with the utmost circum-
spection in this business.

TIE PRESIDENTS coEpIrIoN.

All day yesterday the condition of the
President continued favorable, though the
physicians still maintain an attitude of eau
tious conservatism as TO the outcome Of
the wound. The investigations of the
police have resulted in discovery which
may have an important bearing upon the
case. They have ascertained that the
cartridges used by Guitteau, though throw
ing a very large ball, contained very
snalland disproportionate charge Of powder
1t is now stated for the first time that the
President received only one wound that
the bali frst fired at him was found in his
coat sleeve, and did not even break the
skin. 1t is argued naturally from the
weakness Of the charges that the second
ahot may have penetrated his body TAR less
deeply than had been supposed, and that
In fact it may not have gone beyond the
muscles OF the back. This theory it is
said would account for his extraordinarily
rapid recovery, and for the otherwise inex.
picab.e absence OF dangerous symptoms.
On the other hand we must not
lose sight OF the fact that the
physicians have claimed to have eer-
tain evidence of the passage OF the ball
through the liver, while there has been
from the first both pain and Inflammation
in certain part of the abdomen, and this
pain and inflammation have been attrib
uted to the presence of the ball in that
vicinity. Now it is clear that if the
bullet did not enter the cavity Of the
body at all, but lodged in the muscles OF
the back, there ought not to have
been any evidence of lesion of the
liver, or any appearance of inflammation
in the abdomen. Moreover, tle presence
of tympanites, which is symptomatic of
peritonitis, cannot lie explained ON the
new theory, nor indeed can the severity
OF the shock which the Presidents system
underwent Immediately upon the receipt
of the wound. Ii the event should prove
despite all the indications, that the ball
did not pass through the liver or into the
wall of the abdomen, the doctors will find
it very difcult to explain their posi-.
tive diagnoses made under that assumption.
1t may be said that the pains in the legs
and feet which the President has suffered
from almost ever since he was shot, indi.
cate an injury to the spine, direct or re-
fex, which might have been occasioned by
a DETECTION OF tho bullet after striking
the ribs. 1t is evident. however, that the
physicians. commercially cautions about
making searches for the ball while the pa
tient is so weak, have been compelled to
proceed mainly by guess.work, and that
the success they have thus far attained is
really due principally to the free scope
given Nature throughout. The Presidents
constitution has had fair play, and the in
dications are that it viii prove equal to the
demand upon it, But the case is one in
which the character OF the injuries sus.
tanned has not been discovered up 20 the
present time. and therefore there is room
for all manner of speculations.
