A very large and ngly-looking bomb
shell dropped in the Republican camp
Thursday, causing great deal OF con-
sternation and almost ranic. 1t was
the message of the President to the
Senate Withdrawing all the important
New York nominations except that of
Robertson From the time the mes
sage reached the Senate till q late hour
of the night there was Bedlam in the
Republican ranks. All sorts of runners
and gossips are afoat. Sifbed and re-
duced the substance OF the talk, specu-
lation and assertion rs about this: The
President is rightfully represented as
thoroughly indignant at the recent ac-
ton of the Republican caucus in con-
senting to a line Of procedure as 10 ex-
ecutire business which virtually post
poned indefinitely the consideration Of
Robertsen's nomination. He locked
nantly placed upon himself and the
Administration, and which he could
not honorabiy submit without protest,
and without indicating TO the country
that he, as the head Of the executive
branch Of the Government, could not
approve. He felt that he had beeI
trifled with. not only by Copkling, but
by his professed friends, like Dawes
and other Senators who claimed TO side
with the Administration, and in order
to emphsize this disapproval Of caucus
dictation and domination he decided to
withdraw the nominations in question,
meaning thereby TO declare to the Sen
ate and the country that he stands MP
against the assumption Of Conkling
and all Senators who countenanced the
policy of acting only on such nonina.
tions as chanced TO be uncontested OF
not objected TO by one or the other OF the
| Republican Senators coming from the
| State to which srch nominations were
assigned. Such, in brief, are the chic.
reasons assigned by those speaking il
| behalf Of the President. Naturally
there is great diversity of opinion
among Republican Senators as to The
wisdom of the Presidents actioD--
lConk1ing and his friends look upon i
as challenge Of war TO the knife
They are, of course, highly Indignant
and full of bitterness and venom. No
a few of the Presidents more tirlid anc
conservative friends are thrown int
Mysteries, and are crying aloud, "W ha'
shall we do to be saved" Nothing lla:
). happened for years which has CAUSED
greater excitement and confusion.

st. Louis, August ll.-John Amweg,
one Of the chief actors in the Ford
comic opera company. was whipped
and shamefully beaten last night by a
brother Of Miss Nellie Hazeltine, who
was once engaged to Samuel J. Tilden,
according to the gossips. and by a young
friend Of Hazeltine's named Fred Par
amour, who is stated to be her betroth-
ed. The cause as given by Hazeltine
is that Amweg had been boasting about
the city Of having been made love to by
the belle Of st. Louis, whereas Miss
NeNie's maid had been writing him
billet doux under her name. Amweg
was genuinely in love with her, and
they had decided 70 marry. and he had
q right to boast.of his good fortune.
Miss Hazeltine has been taken to White
Sulphur Springs by her mother, and
there is much gossip in the city.

The swiss want water.

Geneva, Aug. 11.-Switzerland is be.
ginning to suffer seriously from q
drought, which, except for q few show.
ers. has lasted for two months. The
grass is burned and there isno chance o.
making the second hay crop. Thert
Is a great scarcity of water in mos
parts Of the country. In the mountain,
the pastures in several cantons, and ii
Savoy, the beasts are perishing for lacl
of water, and from the heat. Who'll,
herds have perished- in the canton Of
Schwiz. in Vandois, Alps, and thu
valleys of Jura. If the drought con
tinues for week or two longer, it will
60 far to neutralize an affect an ex
cellent grain crop and vintage, which
bids fair to be one of the most abundant
on record. II
