passed the night comfortably, sleeping
sufficiently. He is bright and cheerful
this morning, and has taken fruit, and his
first meal for days with a relish.
1920 A.. M.-The Presidents pulse is now
90. DIR. Bliss says he passed a good night
and awoke refreshed this morning. The
febrile rise came on about 10 A. NJ, and
commenced passing off very soon. The
President commenced the day as favorable
as yesterday, and has not a single disturb
ing symptom. The weather continues fine
and is perfectly clear, except over the
ocean, where a beautifully tinted haze pre-
walls. DR.. Hamilton is satisfied with the
progress of the patient, as are also Swain
and Rockwell. Should the President make
the request to-day he will be placed in his
reclining chair for a short time.
II A. NJ Secretary Lincoln just saw the
President. He said he expected to see a
very ill man, and that his expectations
were realized. He had not seen the
President since the afternoon he was shot,
and of curse great changes have taken
place. Their conversation was very brief
and entirely personal. No business mat
ter was referred to. The Secretary only
remained in the sick room about a minute:
II. M.-The President has just been re-
moved from his reclining chair to his bed.
He remained in his chair for an hour and
o half, during which time he had a quiet
nap. His head was elevated and his feet
permitted to drop to about an angle of
thirty degrees. DR.. Bliss says he was
rather reluctant about being put to bed
again. The disturbance did not change
his pulse or temperature. At this hour
his pulse is 104, temperature 9S.8, respira-
ton 10.
Organization of h Mex House.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE Maine cleo
ton gives the Republicans another men,
Der of the House, which, not counting
the four vacancies in New York, stands:
Republicans, IA; Democrats, 1873; Green
hackers. 9; Readjusters. 2, and Hyott
Smith of Brooklyn, Independent. If the
Republicans elect 8 out of 4 Of the New
York members they will have just enough
to organize the House. II the Democrats
elect Q members, as they claim they can,
then the Republicans will iced the help Of
Smith to organize the House. 1t is claimed
hat he will act with the Republicans.
Five Of the G~reenbackers were formerly
Republicans, and will probably act with
that party as against the Democrats. They
are, Brunned Of Pennsylvania, and Rice,
Hazeltine. Ford and Burroughs Of Mis-
souri,. Jones Of Texas, another Green
hacker, though formerly a Democrat, is
now said to be q bitter opponent Of that
party, and will be more likely to vote
against it than with it. Ladd and Murch
Of Maine, and Musgrove of Pennsylvania
would no doubt vote with the Democrats
on the question of organization. Should
there be a contest between these two
| parties, what the two Virginia Readjusters
may do there is no means Of telling. The
coming election in Virginia will probably
have considerable influence in determin-
ing their political status in the next Con-
gress. The Greenback leaders declare that
they intend to make a caucus nomination
for Speaker, and stand by that nomination
to the last. Then there Is O good deal OF
talk Of q coalition Of the Democrats and
G~reenbackers, but such o combination
could not win unless the Virginia Read
justers join in. Should the Democrats
capture Miller's or Lapham's district in
New York 1t might be fatal to the Republi-
can ascendency, as II would enable the
opposition by q combination to muster a
majority. The chances are favorable for
a Republican organization. but the vote
is likely to be so close that sudden death
or a case Of illness might upset ell these
calculations.
Sherman ON Mason.
New YoRK, September 13.-Gsn. Sher.
man says. regarding Mason's shot at Gut
teau, hat the law must take It's course.
The act was excessively criminal, coming
from a soldier.guard. and everything should
be done to prevent the lowering Of our
dignity by q set Of wsll.meaning but mis-.
guided people. If q conspiracy among the
guards appears, Mason's will not be the
only case Of court martial. Had the shoot
ing been done by some insane ~rufian, who
knows no other law than that Of Judge
Lynch, there might have been some excuse
for it; but emanatine as it did from the
think it deserves the severest punishment.
We can not afford to set q bad example at
Washington in matters of this kind. II
we are ever to expect an end to the lawless-
ness prevailing in some of the districts
South and West, We must begin by show
ing q good example ourselves. 1t viii not
do to decry these rough, uncouth hunters,
trappers and ~squatters Of the West, or
even a Colorado mob, ii acts like that
which occurred yesterday are to be toler-
ated in the Capital Of the country. I shall
bottom and the guilty ones do not Escape
punishment.
