LATER.

A DECIDED improvement in the condition
Of the President was manifested on the 9th.
The bulletin issued at six p. m. says: cat
the examination Of the President at II m.
to-day the temperature was 90; pulse, 100;
respiration, II. At the evening dressing, at
$3.50 p. M. the temperature was 9S.8; pulse,
100; respiration, IS. It is believed, without
referring to the records, that this is the first
day since the development of the traumatic
fever that the temperature, pulse and respi-
ration have been so nearly normal and uni
form throughout the entire day." In his
night dispatch to Minister Lowell Secretary
Blaine says: 'sThe medical reports
are all favorable to-day, morning, noon
and night. The President has not for many
weeks done SO well for so many consecutive
hours. He has had very little fever, his
respiration has been normal, and his pulse
has not exceeded 100. He slept without
opiate, and gained strength without stimu-
liant. His nights are not so restful as could
be desired, but, in the twenty-four hours,
he gets sufficient Sleep" At the morning
examination the surgeon placed his finger
on that part Of the body said to be direct
ly over the ball. The, patient did not
experience any discomfort from the
slight pressure, and said it did not hurt him.
The location Of the ball was understood to be
under the ps0as muscle, near the margin Of the
lasin Of the pelvts, right under the external
lilac artery, but removed from 1t by che
thickness Of the psoas muscle. 1t was be-
lieved that the ball in such location would
cause no Inconvenience to the President In
the use Of his limbs. He was able to raise
bis right leg as easily as his left. A late tel.
egram says the patient was resting much
better than the night before. At eleven
ture was slightly above normal.
IT was believed on the 9th that the Mich
igan forest fires had been nearly all extin-
guished by the rains Of the preceding day.
THREE of the bandits who robbed a railway
train in Western Missouri on the night Of
the 7th were captured ON the 9th.
The squaw of q trustworthy half-breed

on the 9th that the hostile Indians numbered
nine hundred. One party was watching the
country between Fort Apache and the res.
ervatfOn; another was moving down to
Tonic Creek, and Q third was marching
through Pleasant Valley.
THE trial Of Rev. DR.. II. W. Thomas on
the charge Of heresy was concluded in Chi
cago on the 9th. The committee returned
verdict convicting him of disseminating
doctrines contrary to the Articles of Relig-
ion and established standards of doctrine
Of the Church. All the charges
and specifications were sustained.
Presiding Elder Willing then an-
nounced as follows: ssBy paragraphs zoe
and 2l3 Of the Discipline I find that 1t is
settled that DR.. Thomas Is suspended from
the ministry and church privileges Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church until the ensu-
ing Annual Conference. The Conference
which will pass finally on the case will meet
ut Sycamore in October.

where It can be safely and comfortably done"
Engine No. 5, in charge Of Train Master
Bell and Assistant Road Foreman Wallis,
running Us pilot engine ahead Of the train
bearing the President, passed through the
Union Depot at 7:4S. At the depot perfect
quiet prevailed, the building and track in
the vicinity having been cleared Of all en-
gines and cars. Passing trains had been
held back, and the tunnel from one end
to the other was entirely clear and free
from smoke. The train bearing the Pres.
fdent passed ut 500 at slow rate
of speed on the track outside the depot,
making no stop. Few persons were about.

RELIABLE reports from Fort Apache and
Fort Thomas received on the night of the
5th left no doubt that the reports of the In.
dian massacre in the vicinity of the former
place had been greatly exaggerated. 1t ap.
pears that on the morning of the 10Th ult.
Geuaral Carr, with force OF 1O5 men, in.
Guiding Indian scouts and six officers, left
Fort Apache with the intention of arresting
an Apache medicine man who had been en-.
deavoring to stir up the tribe to revolt. The
command reached Cibicu, forty five miles
west of Fort Apache, on the 3Oth ult., and
found QUO Indians there. The medicine man
was arrested without resistance, and the
command began to retrace its steps. Some
Indian scouts who had left their own camp
and come into General Carr's camp were
ordered to leave. They refused to do so,
but turned and fired, killing Captain Hem
tfg. The fight then became general. Our
troops formed skirmish line, and defend
ed themselves until dark, after which they
retreated to Fort Apache. The killed
among our troops number eleven-Captain
Henttg and ten privates.
ON the 9th business was suspended along

Another Account.
FORT APACHE, Septembe


The fight (at Cibicu Creek) began at four
O'Clock, and lasted nearly three hours, un.
til darkness. when the Indians drew of to.
wards their own camp. 1t Is impossible to
tell how many hostiles were killed.
A council was held, and It was decided
that it was impossible to hold the position
against such large force. There was but one
way out Of the camp-through Bad Canyon.
They hastily gathered up the dead, and
found seven men and Captain Hentig killed.
They buried them inside q tent of Carr's,
which, with everything but the saddles and
ammunition, was left on the field as blind
to cover the retreat. Three badly wounded
soldiers were placed on horses. At eleven
O'Clock the command started In the retreat
for this post. One of the wounded men
died at four the next morning. The Indians
did not follow, evidently thinking them still
at Cibicu. General Carr made forced
march, not stopping anywhere until he
reached the post at four p. m. on the 31st.
The troops were badly used up with hunger
and fatigue.
The hostiles are swarming through the
country, and come within a mile Of this
post. This morning they burned several
buildings, stalnpeded = large herd of cattle,
and then drew off to the mountains. Cour-
iers who started out were killed within
twenty miles Of here, also several more out
on escort duty, besides four citizens. We
can do nothing but hold the post until re.
Inducements reach us.

calculation. 1t is certain, however, that
the losses, exclusive of the damage to green
timber, cannot be less than $1O0, 600, and
many think this to low by one quarter.
About $50 dwellings, 200 barns and sheds,
thousands Of bushels of grain and miles Of
fencing have been wiped out, and when
there is added to all this the losses in house,
hold furniture and clothing, It will he seen
that the figures are none too high, and
probably very low.
The following appeal for aid has been
issued by the Committee Of Citizens Of Por ri
Huron, headed by Senator Conger, Mayor
Carleton, and others:
To the People Of the United States:
A most appalling disaster has fallen upon
large portion of the Counties Of Huron and
Sanilac, with some adjacent territory, a sec
ton Of country recently covered with forest,
and now occupied by nearly $1,000 people,
largely recently settled, and either poor or in
very moderate circumstances In the whole
of this section there has been but little rain
during the past two months, and everything
was dry when, on Monday, September 5. a
hurr cane swept over it, carrying with it
sheet of flame that hardly any.
thing could Withstand. We have
advices of 200 persons burned to DEATH many
of them by the roadside or in the fields while
seeking places Of safety, and 1t IL probable
that twice this number have pcrished. We
have reports from twenty or moro townships
In which scarcely house. barn, or supplies Of
any kind are left, and thousands OF people are
destitute and helpless. AL of these people re-
quire immediate assistance, and most Of them
must depend on charity for months to come.
We are doing all in our power to succor them,
but the necessities of the case are 90 great that
contributions from charitable people through
out the country will be required to keep them
throughout the winter. We the efore appeal
to you to send money, clothing, bedding. pro-
visions. or any other supplies that will help
maintain the sufferers, and enable them to
provide shelter for themselves, and begin
work again on their farms. Contributions
may be sent to the Mayor, E. c. Carleton,
Chairman Of the Relief Committee appointed
by the citizens Of Port Huron, who have sent
agents through the burned district to sscer-
tain the wants Of the sufferers and distribute
supplies.
