WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-Ihe follow
ing has just been sent by Secretary
Blaine
TO Minister Locel, London:
At two O'Clock p. NJ. all reports indicate that
the presidents condition is about yesterday.
There is certainly no loss and there is no very
BLAINE Secretary.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-EXECuTIvE
MANSION, II P. Mn reviewing the
presidents case to-day the most that
can fairly be said is that there has been
very slight change for the better.
The patients pulse and temperature
are little higher than last night, but
this trifling increase, which is attrib-
uted to Inflammation of the parotid
gland, is ntelbalanced by the inn
provement of the stomach, upon
which so much now depends. The
president has taken to-day about one
third more food than yesterday, in
GLIDING Is ounces of milk Cruel with
-four, about % ounces of koumiss and
a small quantity of beef juice. He
has had also an enemata of 10 ounces
Of beef extract mixed with the
yolk of an egg. There has been
no recurrence of nausea or other symp-
toms of gastric disturbances. The
swelling of the parotid gland remains
the same as this morning, and the re-
suit of the measures which had been
taken to prevent suppuration cannot
be anticipated. 1t would be gratifying
to the surgeons if the swelling would
subside; since it, suppuration occurs.
The abcess will have to be opened.
The president went to sleep after the
evening examination, and slept for an
hour or so, when he awoke, and anoth-
er enenadtd was administered, after
which, 1915 p. M, he again went to
sleep.
His fever has subsidized within the past
two hours and at the present time his
pulse and temperature are lower than
the evening examination. The sur
geons sum up the day by saying there
has been slight change for the better
in the direction of the great ability to
receive and assimilate nourishme nt,
and the outlook tonight is favorable.
The president, however, is extremely
weak and improvement will be very
slow.

morning dressing of the wound it was
looking well and the pus discharge was
of a healthy character. After the
oncration of August Sth, the flexible
tube used to wash out the wound at
each dressing readily followed the track
of the. ball to the depth of 81 or 4
inches. At the dressing, however, a
small quantity of healthy pus came, as
was believed. from the part of the
track beyond this point, either spon-
taneously or after gentle pres
sure over the anterior surface
of the right lilac region, but this deeper
mart of the track was not reached by
the tube until yesterday morning, when
the separation of a small slough per-
mitted it to pass downward and for
ward for distance of twelve and half
inches from the external surface of the
last incision. This facilitates the drain
age and the cleansing of the deeper
parts of the wound. 1t has not been
followed by any increase in the quanti-
ty of pus discharged. The large pus
cavity which formed in the immediate
vicinity of the broken rib, is filling up
with healthy granulations of the origi-
nal wound. The entrance, as far as that

Some time ago an Indian in Sit.
ting Bulls band named Low Dog
murdered and robbed a United States
mail Garner, at the same time rob-
bling the mail pouches. All efforts
were made by the civil authorities
to arrest the Indian, but without
success, he reforming the band and
coming over into Canada. A short
time since Low Dog and a number
OF Indians came to Fort Buford and
surrendered to the officers in charge.
The civil authorities Immediately
sought this opportunity to secure
him, but their efforts were met bv
the commander of Fort Buford
with a most vigorous protest, on the
ground that the arrest of Low DOG
would prevent the surrender of Sit:
ting Bull. Word was sent to Wash.
ington and the Secretary OF the In
terror and Department of Justice
united in requesting the marshal to
let the matter drop for the time.
Low Dog was not arrested and Sit.
ting Bull has not surrendered, but
IS wandering around over in Canada.

The millers Of France have be-
come alarmed at the increase in i'm.
portation into that vicinity of flour
from the United States, and have
addressed the French senate a petit.
ton praying All increase of the duty
on American flour imported into
France, or that law be passed that
American -four be not allowed en-.
trance Oh an equality with wheat.
The French millcrs base their petit.
ti0ns upon old grounds of protection
of home industry, claiming that i'm
portations from America are very
prejudicial to the milling industries
of France, and that it is not in &C.
cordance with French interests to adj
NIT foreign manufactured product on
better terms than the raw material.
This movement may ultimately
prove a matter of Importance to
American millers, aad to the wheat
farmers Of the northwest. The in
crease of importation into France is
as follows: 1879, 4,23O,242 barrels;
1873, 2,772,236 barrels; 1877, 1904,

last week to murder Chas. K. Minis,
ex.treasurer Of Nc Leod county, with

Minis, Weston drove the knife into
his own throat twice. Weston is a

note to the warden stating what dis

LONDON LETTER.
Foreign Crop PROSPECTS,.

London, England, May 10th, 1881.
Bright sunshine and higher
temperature have characterized the
latter portion of the past week, but
the winds have been for the most
part harsh and dry. Severe night
frosts in the earlier portion of the
week have retarded vegetation, and
more geniel temperature with
warm showers is still greatly needed
The wheats have made but little pro.
gress. but they retain their healthy
appearance. Spring corn comes
through the ground very slowly, and
until there is rainfall it is difficult to
tell whether there is a good plant
or not. Crop prospects, so far as
they can he at present estimated, are
not, on the whole, unfavorable. The
demand for English wheat contin-
ues to be very inactive, and values
generally are from rs to so cents
per or, of eight bushels lower than
at the close Of the previous week.
The arrivals OF breadstuffs in Lon.
don during the week have been on a
large scale. From the United States
there have been received 31.O44 qrs.
of wheat, from Australia and New
Zealand 30,353 qrs., from India 49,.
930sqrs.; from Russia 1925 qrs.,
and from Germany 4,5O0., the total
being 81, 2O9 qrs. of wheat, and 80, :
920 sacks and go barrels of flour. Off
coast so wheat laden. vessels have
arrived, and out Of those only Il
sales are reported; the ofcoast value
of American red winter wheat has
not deprecated more than about Il
cts; $11.3O being the value on Sa.
turday off coast. The floating bulk
stands at 1 .400,500 qrs. of wheat,
AID -four equal to wheat, a reduction
of 257, 500 qrs. or the figures of the
previous week, which were the high
est yet recorded in the history of
the trade. Ofthis quantity 1854, ;.
600 qrs., are from California, $685.
600 qrs. from Australia and New
Zealand, 1000 qrs. from Chill,
70, 500 qrs from Russia, 1900 qrs.
from the Atlantic ports of the Unit.
ed States, $4,000 from India and
Egypt, and $4,000 qrs from the Dan.
ubian provinces. These figures,
week by week, continue to show
that the eggs are not all in one bas.
ket. The Atlantic ports of the
United States have increased their
shipments to Europe on the week.
ForeignAour in large supply is con-
tinually in buyers favor.
Postal advices from New Zealand
report the wheat crop, now on pas.
sage and for shipment, as being in
excellent condition; the bulk. how
ever, is said to be smaller than that
Of last year. The harvest being ear.
lier than was anticipated, exporters
were-March 4th-greatly lacking
available tonnage.
In Roumania there has been a
welcome rainfall, and crop prospects
have improved. Wheat markets
have advanced, and although maize
has been IN good supply the demand
has been such as to keep values from
declining.
In Hungary the aptumn.so
wheats are reported very favorably.
In Austria the wheat crop is said
to be in satisfactory condition.

Among the names prominently
mentioned in this connection, we
note that of Hon. A. r. McGill,
present Insurance Commissioner of
Minnesota. By reason aof several
successive years experience at the
State Capitol he is, without doubt,
fully posted upon the requirements
of the position of governor. By
those who have known him long

sented as man of sterling integrity
coupled with undoubted ability-two
requisites which, in these times, are
very essential IN the makeup of
those We elevate to positions of hon.
or and trust. He is now fairly be-

has received some very fattering en-
dorsements by several Of the leading
papers throughout the State. Give

(From our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. y. c.. Nav 26th. a..


Washington, D. G., May 2Sth, 81.
An announcement last evening
that Secretaries Blaine, Window,
Mr.. Bergh, and other distinguished
gentlemen would address meeting
for the prevention of cruelty to ami.
mails failed to bring together very
large audience, and the distinguish.
ed speakers failed to come. Tho
newly appointed Commissioners Of
Agriculture, DR.. Loring, was on
hand, and, as everybody knows, he
can make speech without a mo-
ments warming, and wax sublime,
and even romantic, over pumpkins
and squashes, butter and pigs, at a
country fair. 1 venture to refer to
his speech as a matter of general in
terest, because he seemed to make
it an occasion to outline his policy
on what he called the Seattle in
dustry' Of the country. The LeDuc
dynasty will be memorable as the
golden age of American tea, and the
historian will record that, during
the time he steered the ship of Agri-
culture, this solace of old women
reached degree Of cultivation that
it had never attained before, on a
half acre of land in Georgia.
Commissioner Loriny's admins
tration promises to be remarkable
for the progress of the :'cattle in
dustry," including dogs and cats.
He said that he had just had con-
versation with the Chief of the Cen.
sus Department, General Walker,
whom he eulogized as the greatest
statistician of all the ages-and that
General Walker had told him that
the live stock Industry" surpassed
all others in the United States. That
great as was our cereal, cotton, sug.
ar, root, and tobacco crops, they
were not to be compared with the
aggregate wealth represented in
horses, cows, sheep, pigs, dogs, and
cats. Dr.. Loring actually mention.
ed the dogs and cats in all serious.
ness, and did not seem to be aware
that these '@small deer bear little
other than parasltical relation to
the human and animal economy.
He said that he proposed to have a
Bureau OF Live Stock added to the
Department Of Agriculture, and
from the cheerful and enthusiastic
way in which he spun words on the
subject, l do not think that it is
utopian to expect that, in this
rapidly progressive age, we may soon
have, in the Department of Agricul-
ture, Commissioner of dogs and
cats. Let us pray that his duties
may relate to their extinction.
