TIE NEW PRESIDENT.
DreaGfuliy Shocked and Unwilling to BE
leYa the News


General Arthur remained at his house
in New York city, all day yester-
day. About noon he received despatch
from Attorney General MacVeagh telling
how critical the condition of the president
was.
General Arthur was at home all the
evening. The first news he had of the
presidents death was conveyed to him by
two World reporters who called at II 20.
at first admission was refused.
"Tell General Arthur the president is
dead" one of them said to the servant.
No sooner did tho message reach him
than General Arthur came into the hall,
where the news was repeated.
~ don't believe it can be true" was
his reply. " should have been notified if
it were true"
At II 80 the first dispatch from Elberon
reached General Arthur. A reporter
again sought an interview. The colored
servant said s. lie is alone in his library,
his head is between his hands, and l don't t
dare speak to him.
The first dispatch was followed by
others in rapid succession. The second
came at 12 o'clock, the next at 1920.

some jokes, which were alternately fresh
and fish-like. Then came series of
panoramic views of Ireland, which
were not very good, and which
could have been better described by
a school boy than they were by the fierce
looking person who last night attempted
the task. Durin. the exhibition Of the
views there was singing, dancing, sketch
acts, etc, which were fair. Ned West in

president have all been merged in the
gloom of sorrow and the anxiety OF
doubts for the future. BY his bedside
the voice of faction has been stilled, and
awaiting his fate partisan rancor has
been dumb. His affiiction was so pitt
full, the assault upon him SO dastardly,
and he bore his suffering so manfully
and patiently, withal so hopefully, that
the whole nation sympathized with the
sorrow of his household, and the suffer-
ing of it's stricken head. At the
beginning of his prostration few ex-
pected any other than the end which
has come, but there have been two
periods in which the public mind had
been so much reassured as to lead it to a
settled conviction of his likely recovery.
For a week the indications have all
pointed to this fatal termination. None
the less does it come with startling effect,
awakening a response Of universal popu-
lar sympathy to which there has scarcely
been parallel. The long period of his
suffering has only served to intensity the
interest Of the people in his prostration,
their hope for his recovery, their fears
for his fate, and their sorrow now that
it has come to pass. Even in
his death the president is fortunate in
having had the prayers Of the nation and
of Christendom for his recovery; his
brief administration will go into history
with credit; his assassin and assassina-
tion will be for all time objects of human.

CORONER'S INQUEST.
INVESTiGArING HEKRT PlCKEL'S
DEATH.

The Coroner Again Shooting on His Mouth.
The coroner's jury impanelled in the
case Of Henry Pickel, who was killed at
Prince and Walnut streets by the cars, ON
Friday, met last evening in tho orphans
court room. The evidence of = number
of witnesses, including the engineer and
conductor of the shifter and several who
saw tho accident, was heard. NJ. BrOsius
and A. F. Hershey. esqs., appeared as
counsel for the deceased. The evil
dcnce showed that upon the day
of the accident, between 10 and II o'clock,
the shifter was moving cars at a siding
near the Pennsylvania freight depot.
Harry Evans, the engineer. was on the ell
gine alone, the fireman having gone down
in the neighbOrhOOd Of the passenger
depot to flag any approaching trains which
We're going west. The engineer testified
that he did not see the man before he
struck him when some one told him, he
suddenly stopped. He was ringing tho
bell at the time and he had whistled when
the train started on the siding, some dis
tance below the crossing. The accident
occurred on the side where the fireman
would have sat had he been on the engine.
The fireman had been sent TO flag because
the regular flagman was doing work west
Of the crossing and it is part of the FIRE
mans duties. on such trains, to flag. The
train was running about rs fast rs a man
could walk.
n number of witnesses testified that
they saw the man killed. Most Of them
swore that the bell of the shiftcr was ring
ing, while one or two did not know for
certain.
\ reporter OF the INTELI.ia.:NCER was
present at the inquest and he was called rs
4 witness to testify in regard to some re-
ports concerning, the manner in which the
train was run, which hc had heard on this
day. This was Il harvest for the coroner,
and he took occasion to cross examine the
newspaper man at length, not however, in
regard to anything that had been asked
him by the jury. lie wanted to know
something about reports that had been
published concerning him, and seemed
particularly anxious to "wash his dirty
linen !" (not meaning as he stated, by way
Of explanation, his linen pants).
He asked questions which had
about rs much relation to the accident rs
to the attempted killing of Guiteau or tho
recent fires in Michigan. He made Il
speech just the same, and talked 50 loud
that he almost blew the gas QUO He
thumpcd his pondcrous fist down upon
the table until all present be-
came afraid, and the reporter trembled
for fear that he would bs killed.
At last he concluded and after his bellows
had been closed the whole audience
brcathed easier aud they all wanted to
know what the subject Of his g few re-
marks had been. The reporter asked
him whether he was investigating the &C
cident or tho reporters conduct OH this
day, but the cOnundrum was left un-
solved, and the coroner now thiaks that he
has hal revenge, which is very sweet to
him.

COLLEGE journalism has not been on
the whole success. Even in the higher
institutions of learning the attempts made
in this direction have too often been fail
ures, the tendency being towards a weak
attempt at magazine or silly sort of a
low grade newspaper, and most editorial
arrangements failing to reconcile the rights
and interests of students and faculty, and
at the same time supply the wants of the
alumni. Among those who have struck
