The Inability Of the President.
From the World.

From the World.
The Consultation says: "In case Of the
removal of the President from office, or
his death, reslgi alton or inability TO dis
Office. the same shall deDoire on the Vtce-
President; and the Congress may by law
provide for the case of removal, death ,
resignation or Inability both OF the Pres
as President, and such officer shall act ac-
cordlngiy until the disability OF the Pres
idsnt shall be elected"
Here are four cases specified, each Of
which is to work the same effect upon
the holder of an Office specified-rem0val
death, resignation and ability to dis
charge the powers ard duties of that
office. In either case the "office"-
clearly by the grammatical construction
of the clause-tbe Office is 10 "devolve"
upon another public servant. Whatever
"devolves" upon a person becomes ves-
ted in that person. To construe the
language of this clause to mean that the
"powers and duties of the Office" Of
President and not the Office itself shall
case of an "iDability" on the part of the
President to discharge them, wduld be
to call upon the Vice President to act xs
President during every temporary abb
senee of the President from the seat oi
Government, for clearly the President is
"unable" to discharge the duties and
powers of his Office when he is not at
the place where those powers and duties
must by law be discharged. What the
Constitution means seems to us to be
that whenever President ceases to be
morally, mentally or physically able to
discharge the powers and duties OF his
Office for such length of time as SER
iously to impede the public service, tht
Office shall ''devolve' absolutely
upon the Vice President, whe is elected
with him and for similar term, ant
who is, therefore, to ush the language o
Hamilton IN the Federalist, really choseI
as q Substitute" for the President.

A Crowd at Council.

The session of City Council, last
evening was attended by a large
crowd of firemen who were interested
to know the fate of Mr.. Blake's ordi-
nance for the reorganization of the
Fire Department. 1t was not called
up however, greatly to their dis
appointment.
This ordinance is violently oppos
ed by the firemen, mainly on account
Of one of it provisions, which divides
the city into four districts and assigns
four companies to each district; all
Of the companies to attend one fire
only IN the case of a second alarm
Six of the companies have officially
declared against this division, ant
only two-the Fame Hose anG
Weccacoe-are in favor of it.

From the Phi iiadelphl Ia Telegraphia.
THE PEACH SUPPLY.

Where the Fruit Now Being Sold is
GrOwn-Fancy Prices.
"What's the price of this basket of
peaches?" q newspaper reporter this
afternoon asked a Delaware avenue
produce dealer, accompanying the
question with nod towards basket
of prime Crawfords.
"You can have them for 49," was
the reply, and The dealer then pro-
ceed to explain why the price was
so high. At this time last year the
same variety of fruit could be bought
for seventy five cents or ST. per bas-
ket, and later in the season, when
the market was flush they could even
be purchased tor fifty cents. 1t seems
that the stories which have foated
up from the Peninsula from time to
time about the failure of the peach
crop have this year not been exs
aggerated. The crop has been to-
tai failure, or so near 30 that only
25, 900 baskets will this year be pro :
duced from region which sent g.
500 900 baskets to market last year.
Kent county, Maryland, is the only
section of the Peninsula that this
year grows any Of the fruit, and only
its low lying land along the shores
of the Chesapeake bay are produc.
tive. The Trotbs, Early and Craw-
fords are now being sent to market
from Maryland, but little of the fruit
finds its way to this city, New York
being the principal consumer. Bet
ter prices are realized in that city, II
is claimed, as dealers will pay fancy
figures for the fruit which Is really
Of a superior quality.

The Doctors Confident that the
Patient Has Once More Taken
the Road to Recovery.
WASHINGTON, August 19.-To-day
has been q cheering one for the doctors
in attendance on the President, and in
stead Of keeping themselves secluded In
the private part OF the White House, as
they do when the case takes had turn,
they have been out in the Secretary's
quarters chatting and talking with all
comers. DR.. Bliss has been the circle of
batch Of .questioners all day long, aud
every one seeking Information went
away with the highest and most cheerful
anticipations of the full recovery of the
President. The bulletins all day have
show q continuous Improvement, and
there has been candor about them
which left nothing to be read between
the lines. The President has been eat
ing with comparative freedom, though
his nourlshment Is doled out to him in
fragnientary doses by the physicians.
The desire to eat is present all the time
and every time food Is offered he makes
clean sweep of all that is accessible
and looks for more. The enemata doses
are continued and with good effect, the
absorption being very satisfactory and
complete. 1t was taken as q very good
sign. DR.. Hamilton departed on the
2.10 P. M. train. It had been the inten-
ton of the staff to have DR.. Hamilton
remain until the arrival OF DR.. Agnew,
tomorrow evening.
DR.. Hamilton, however, was anxious
to be in town and with his family at
eeabrixht, N. j., over Sunday, and
departed as soon as it was safe for him
to do so. Had the indications been
threatening he would have remained
until the arrival of DR.. Agnew, and il
necessary would have given up his
return to New York for the present.
DR.. Reyburn, Of the attending corps,
said during the afternoon "We are
netting on admirably with the Presi.
d ent. He slept well, and while he ID
a very, very weak man and not able
to do much, he is saving himself to
give himself push toward recovery.
He can lift glass of water to his lips,
for instance, or anything of that kind.
He takes food regularly and is becom.
ing positively ravenous in his desire
for something to put on his stomach.
We are giving him koumiss as freely
as we dare, and at times some oatmea
Cruel, which Mrs. Garfield had pre-
pared for him, and he seems to eat i
with a special relish on that account
We gave him some bismuth, too, TO
stomach, and this is the only medicin
he has had since last week. We ar,
not curing aim by medicines, yo,
will understand, and have no plan o
treatment requiring regular course
of drugs. We meet the conditions a,
they arise with such medicines as ar,
best adapted to all the conditi ons o
the case. The enemata treatmen
with extract of beef tea is still KEEP
up and we have no idea of abandoning
it at this time. We administer medi
cine in that way. Quinine as a toni
is given along with the beef"

Milton Lackey, Of this city was re

Thursday evening, at Atlantic City,
where he bad gone on Hope Lodge

performed by some light-fingered
gent while Mr.. Lackey was going
from the portico of the West Jersey
excursion house to the tram, and he
was not seated in the car more than
two minutes when he discovered his
loss. The watch was valued at $35.

4 cannon f1re-cracker under his chair.
The effect was awful, and to say that
Young and guileless newspaper man
was startled out of q years growth Is
drawing it mild indeed. However, he
soon recovered his composure, and,
thinking the supply of ammunition was
exhausted, again sat down to pump for
news, when another explosion nearly
lifted him out of the window. Thii
was more than he could stand, and
grabbing his hat he made q hasty de-
