The PHILADELPHIA Record asserts
that official venality has become so
common q thing in the United States
that the public sense of shame and
humiliation that should follow its
exposure is sadly iazsd and deadened.
The editor believes that people are 30
accustomed to being cheated that
honesty is more OF q surprise than
dishonesty, and says We are as sur
feited with populations as Macbeth
vas with murders. II one reads the
daily papers be must be convinced OF
the truth of this fact, fer scarcely q
week passes in which the discovery
of the roguery or arrest Of some
official is not published. The dis.
honest transactions OF the army of
roRues.-the Bradys, Dorseys, How
gstes, Tyners and others are talked
about as expected things. No one
feels or expresses assonishm ent
when an official is found
out in his thieving. II an
investigation be made, it is seldom
that more is done than the discharge
OF the culprit, who thereafter holds
his head ss high as ever, and swells
about on the money stolen from the
people. Nobody thinks any thing will
be done with Brady, the star route
sWindler, or Dorsey, his partner. or
Tyner, who helpsd them in their
thefts: and if Howgste, who got away
with many thousands of the peoples
money, which he spent on prost!-
tutes and in fast living is convicted.
the country will be surprised. 1t is
all we'll enough to talk about "re-
fcrm." and suggest an improvement
in the SYSTEM" but the only reform
and only system that will remedy the
evil will be the prompt and certain
punishment of the thieves and con-
spirators, whenever they are detected
in stealing the hard-earned money of
the people.

GREAT UNEAsINEsS

Manifested ut Washington Over the Un-
favorable symptoms Of the President
The PATIENTS Pulse Decreasing.
EXECUTIVE MANSION, 2:15 P. M.-Much
anxiety is manifested throughout the
city REGARDING the Presidents condition,
and numbers of inquiries have been
made at the Mansion throughout the
day. The feeling throughout the coun.
try was similarly manifested by the
large number of press correspondents
who called at the White House to re-
ceive the 1890 P. NJ. bulletin for the re-
spective papers which they represent.
Aside from this many requests for the
latest news have been received from the
several executive departments. The
temperature and respiration as stated in
the last bulletin are generally consider
ed as favorable indications, but the
pulse, which is given as llS, causes con-
siderable uneasiness IN the public mind,
Since the issuance OF the bulletin it has
been impossible to confer directly with
any OF the attending surgeons. Attor-
ney General MacNeagh called a short
time ago. AS he was leaving the White
House, he said, in reply to an inter
rogatory, that DR.. Agnew
attributed the unusually high
pulse to the weak condition OF the
patient, caused by the nausea with
which he has been troubled. The
Attorney-General said further that the
surgeons informed him there were no
indications of fever and they hoped they
had overcome the trouble caused by the
nausea. II no further trouble from
nausea is experienced it is thought the
patient will soon rally from the bad ei-
fects Of the attack he has already had.
The surgeons took the patients pulse

THE DAY AT THE MANSION.

Greater Excitement Than On the Day He
Was shot-The Patients Stomach Goes
Back on Him-The Doctors Alarmed.
WASHINGTON, August 15.-There has
been the greatest excitement here to.
day about the President since the day
he was shot Business was almost en-
tirely suspended and people were run
ming everywhere hunting for the latest
news. The White House was filled up
and throngs pressed about the gates.
The excitement was started with
the morning bulletin, which
was considered very unfavorable. The
midday bulletin, instead OF reassuring
the people, increased the uneasiness,
and the night bulletin made matters
still worse. Everybody wanted to find
out what the surgeons thought Of the
case and what hopes they had, but this
was rather difficult, as the surgeons kept
themselves out OF sight. This added to
the alarm, and at night the whole
population was on the streets.
The surgeons remained close by
the President, and though the
offices at the White House were
thronged, but little could be learned
that could be called definite. Those who
had access to the rooms near the Presi-
dent and to the doctors would say but
little. Col. Corbin said the situation was
critical. Attorney General MacVeigh
told Senator Pugh, of Alabama, to-
night that it was useless to disguise the
fact that the case was as grave as could
be. Ex-Sheriff Daggett, OF Brooklyn,
who has access to the personal attend
ants OF the President, said it was as bad
as bad could be. All this seemed to in
crease the feeling of alarm, but no satis-
faction as to the state OF the case can be
learned. 1t was plain all day that the
surgeons were alarmed; there was no
concealirg the fact. Various rumors
were ahoat, and could be heard at every
turn.
About 9 O'Clock tonight a Western
Associated Press agent got to see DR..
Bliss. He said he was in hurry to get
back to the President, but would take
time to say that this was most critical
turn of the Presidents malady. He
said it was a complication that
was not looked for last night.
Said DR.. Bliss, "The Presidents
stomach went back on him and entirely
refused to perform any OF its functions.
The surgeons at once became alarmed,
as they saw it was critical change. The
wound was doing all right; tbfgeiSglng
freely all the pus that is secreted. The
whole trouble is with the stomach. The
President has suffered with dyspep.
sia for several years. We knew that and
therefore we handled the stomach gently.
We administered just such nourishment
a. could best be assimllated.

His Stomach Will Retain N Nothing.

WASHINGTON, August l5.-The Presi.
dents stomach worked we'll enough up
to last night, when it gave suddenly
away. This causes the present trouble.
His stomach will not retain anything,
not even a spoonful of water. He has
thrown up everything given him o.day.
The President now must have
nourishment. For time after he was
shot it was not so essential. He had fat
enough then to sustain him. Now that
he is exhausted he must be kept up
with nourishment. The waste goes on
all the time. The question is can
we keep up the supply. "Can
you do it, Doctor" asked the
reporter.
doubt OF that, but whether we can nour-
ish and sustain the President by enemia
until his stomach recuperates is the all
important question.
Doctor, do you consider the case
hopeless?"
"No, not by any means. The Presi-
dent still has a chance to get well, a
very fair chance. His stomach may
again get stronger, then there would be
no trouble"
"Doctor," asked the reporter, ''Does
patient sometimes grow 50 weak that
the fever exhausts itself ?'
"Not until the dissolution sets in, and
that is not the case with the President.
If his stomach resumes its functions he
will mend right away. There is no
other trouble"
At 10 o'clock there was an immense
crowd at the White House and the
grounds were crowded. Everybody
was seeking news, but the surgeons
were inaccessible again.

THE REASON WHY.
Spotted Tail the Victim of
Conspiracy-A Temporary Sue
cessor tO the Chief Appointed.

WASHINGTON, August 10 The In
dian Bureau to-day received another
report from Agent Cook, at Rosebud
agency, about the killing OF Spotted
Tail. He had arrested Crow Dog, the
murderer, and Black Crow, an accom-
plice, and sent them to Fort Niobrars
Tor confinement until the arrival OF a
United States Marshall to take charge OF
them. They will be tried for murder
by the laws OF that Territory. Agent
Cook reports that Black Crow aspired
TO be chief in place OF Spotted Tail,
and had orgaRized gang OF
adherents; that Crow Dog was his chlei
assistant; that the murder OF Spotted
Tail was the result of q regular conspira-
cy TO get him out of way and put Black
Crow in his place Black Crow made ! o
concealment OF this, but boasted OF 1t.
Cook appointed White Thunder as tenn
porary Chief to succeed Spotted Tail,
and recommends tina. Spotted IAitS son
he appointed by the Interior Depart
ment 10 succeed his father. C11S r'-
ports that the prnmp, arrest at ths muir
derers broke no the conspiracy. and t"it

the FEELING STILL AS BAD As EVER,

Sr.,ls! Dispatch to the Register.
ST. CLAIRsvILLE, August 10.
The irrv in the Weir murder case is
s,l ont and with no prospect OF an
o,rssment. Every one has given up
hopes Of verdict, and the only question
now sppears to be. how long will the
Tu5ge hold the jury before discharging
,bsmo The court bell rang this morn
invat 81 O'Clock, and instantly there was
q srpsh to the temple Of justice (?) it
bsips presumed by many that the jury
xsrs about to bring in verdict. Court
VAS ssopened, the prisoner ( Weir brought
in and then the Judge directed the
Sheriff TO bring down the jury. With
solemn looking countenances the twelve
men filed in to their places. The Court
mt the question Gentleman OF the jury,
have YOU agreed upon your verdict"
The foreman, f. D. Barnes, said ave
have not agreed" The court then in
ouired whether the disagreement re-
lated to the law or the testimony. Mr..
Barnes said the difference was in regard
10 the testimony. S. ID. Myers, one Of
the jurors, said they differed as to the
application OF certain points OF the law
TO certain portions OF the testimony. P.
Coleman, another juror, stated that an
other cause of difference was as to the
construction TO be put upon certain
terms in the indictment.
Judge Okcy then proceeded to give
the Jury a supplemental charge, or
rather charge explanatory OF certain
portions OF his charge given last Friday
evening. This additional charge was
one that is generally considered bad for
the prisoner, and, in consequence
thereof, the feeling which waSmanifest-
ell against his Honor on Saturday has
teen greatly modified.
The attorneys for Weir strongly object
to this supplemental charge going to the
jury and excepted to it. Ii the defense
take the case up to the higher courts,
this will be one of their points.
Since the Courts talk to the Jury this
morning, it is the general conviction
hat the verdict cannot be lower than
murder in the second degree, and posi-
bly, it may be murder in the first degree.
Bat it is not believed that the jurors
themselves have given up all hope OF
aver reaching an agreement upon ver-
lict. 1t is thought that unlSss a vordrot
s rendered by tomorrow the jury will
