viii be issued until tomorrow morning

Will De issued until to-mOrr0W morning.
Executive Mansion, midnight-Un-
oficial-The president passed a most
comfortable day, and his condition to-
night is in every way as satisfactory as
could be expected. He has taken more
nourishment during the past eighteen
hours than at any time since he was
wounded, and all food has been retained
and properly assimilated. In order to
relieve him as far as possible from the
oppression caused by the intense heat,
the attending physicians this evening
put into operation simple refrigerat-
ing apparatus. which, it is thought,
will render the atmosphere of his room
tomorrow much more comfortable than
it has been to-day. 1t consists of a
number of troughs of galvanized iron,
about ten inches in width and fourteen
in length, and placed on the floor
along the walls, and filed with water
and broken ice. Over these troughs
and corresponding with them in length,
are suspended sheets of flannel, the
lower edge of which are immersed in
the ice water which fills the troughs.
The water is absorbed and carried up
ward by the capillary attraction in the
flannel, as the oil in the wick of lamps,
until the sheets are saturated. This
cold water, by direct contact with the
air, and by the rapid evaporation which
takes place over the extended surface of
the flannel, lowers the temperature.
Although only few hours has elapsed
since the apparatus has been put into
operation, it has made a perceptible
change, and it is thought its utility
will be still more clearly demonstrated
tomorrow. The day has been compar-
atively quiet at the executive mansion,
for the reason that the favorable bulle-
tins have, to great extent, relieved
public anxiety and decreased the num-
Der of callers. At this hour (midnight)
the president is resting quietly, and all
his symptoms are encouraging.
1890 a. m.-The president remains
as quiet and as comfortable as at the
date of the last bulletin. He takes his
nourishment well. Pulse 100, tempera-
ture 997-10, respiration %.
a. m. The president is resting

Every body about the

easy. There is no change in his symp-
toms.

Report OF the bribery COMMITTEES.

Albany, July 6.-Acott, in the as
sembly, reported for the majority that
the bribery committee thought proper
not to report on the alleged bribery, as
indictments had been found by the
jury. Both charges and denials were
positive and circumstantial.
The minority reported that if the
charge was true a great crime had been
committed. 1t bears somewhat on
Bradley for receiving the money at all,
and compares him with Judas Iscariot.
Either Bradley or Sessions had the
crime of perjury on their conscience,
the Almighty alone knew which. The
testimony shows that no money had
been offered any legislator but Bradley.
Phillips denied that the proposed
conference was trap. but said he pro-
posed it as means of settling the diff
culties not otherwise adjustable among
the republicans. The Joint convention
adjourned.
Albany: The assembly and senate
have adopted resolutions sympatnizing
with Garfield and condemning the as
sassin. No choice in balloting. Small
change.

ROBERT REYRuRNE

Among other favorable symptoms in
the presidents. condition to-day is the
fact that he is beginning to find fault
with his physicians because they do not
give him enough to eat. He called
this afternoon for beefsteak, but upon
being told it was not thought prudent
at present to allow him to eat such
hearty food, he grumbled little, but
consented to compromise upon an egg,
and say no more about it. An egg was
given him. He wished also to know
this afternoon whether he could not be
permitted to hold cabinet meeting,
and evinced generally disposition to
talk, and which the physicians were
obliged to discourage and restrain.

heard in court unless 1 committed a
misdemeanor. got myself arrested,
split brick in half, and put the
halves in my oyercoat pocket. When /

Washington, July 6.-The physicians

phere in the sick room cool.

THE SILVER REEF STRIKERS
AND OTHERS.
salt Lake Tribunal


The incoming train on the Utah South
ern road Thursday evening brought with
1T twenty prisoners for confinement in
the Utah penitentiary near this city.
They were in charge of Deputy U. s.
Marshal Pratt and nine guards, who
came with them from Beaver where they
had been previously confined. On leav-
ing that place there were twenty-three
prisoners of which thirteen were the
Silver Reef strikers, who were recently
convicted in the Second District. OF the
remaining ten one was the man Dalton,
sentenced to twelve years. imprisonment
for murder, one Stephens, who is con-
victed of manslaughter, and the remain
der are convicted of various offenses from
burglary to horse stealing.
At. Milford, where the party took the
train, three of the miners were released
by giving bail in the amount required.
One of the number now here was offered
bail, but refused unless his companions
were bailed out also. These men are
members of the Miners Union, and were
chosen from about 800, who engaged in
the strike, as the supposed ring-leaders.
They are indicted for three crimes, viz
riot, conspiracy and false imprisonment.
Sentence has been suspended in their
case until September next, and they have
already given notice of appeal. They
are said to be fine body of men, intel
ligent, Industrious, and generally re-
spected at home, A. H. Lewis, one of
the thirteen, being the president of the
Union, and NJ. O'Laughlin, ex-president
1t is claimed that while they allowed
themselves to be led into greater ex.
tremes than is warranted by the law, yet
the real ring-leaders, John and Fred
Gamble, who melted them to do what
they did, have, as is usual in such cases,
escaped and are now in Nevada, Since
Sunday bail has been furnished for one of
the number, and Arthur Brown, their
attorney, will see that he gets out to-
morrow. 1t is expected that all will be
released in short time.

GENUINE JIsI-JAMs.

When man gets real bowling, fighting
mad, he won't stop to reason. So it is
with the Hon. Bulldog Bleat. The Hon.
Bulldog is somewhat elderly gentleman
with young and pretty wife, of whom
ne is very jealous. Recently the lady
took part in private theatricals, and the
Hon. Bulldog felt very nervous and un-
easy when he saw her as the heroine,
embraced by the hero. But he didn't
say anything. Now, in the same set in
which the Bleats move, is young fellow
of scientific turn of mind. He has
been practicing photography on glass and
took some pictures of Mrs. B. and the
hero on window-glass, embracing in vari-
GUS positions. Mrs. B. had lot of those
photographs at home, and one day a
window in her house in the lawn got
broken and she sent for glazier to fix it
and had him set those panes in it. The
Hon. Bulldog knew not of this. That
afternoon, he pulled tho curtain that
hung over the window aside little, and
looked through one of the panes. To his
horror, his wife appeared out on the lawn
hugging the actor. He flew into a rage,
seized gun and ran out to slay them.
When he got out there they were gone,
and frantic search failed to reveal them
After time he went in and peeped
through the window again. There were
twelve panes in the window and that
time he hit on different one. There were
the couple, but in different embrace.
Madder than ever, out went the Hon.
Bulldog again, and howled and hoped
and performed like mailman. Of course,
he found nobody. Then he posted the
footman outside to watch, and went to
the window again. He hit another pane,
and out he capered. The footman swore
they hadn't been there, and was called a
liar and discharged. Then the place was
ransacked. But the lovers did not ap-
pear. The Hon. Bulldog foamed at the
mouth, tore his hair, stamped, bit his
thumb and swore. Once more he tried
it, He got still different pane. He
took good look to be sure, and then
went out once more jumping, and yelling
like wild Indian. When he came in
that time, he rolled on the floor with
rage. Aut at last he got up and took
one more loole-while he was looking, his
wife came down stairs, went to him and
put her hand on his shoulder Returned
saw her. Then looked at the window.
GIVE got 'em!" he yelled. ''Whoop!
Insure the furniture! I'll wreck every
thing! Its genuine JIM ams!" Four ser.
wants had to hold him, while things
were being explained. Then he Gained
down sufficiently to say he forgave his
wife. But he took poker and demol-
ished the window, and then he sent the
artist word not to visit the house if he
didn't want to be taken to the roof and
dropped down chimney.
