A Cargo or Mumas Be0es.
NEW YORK, Sept. ia special
from London says: Great sensa-
ton was caused at Bristol by the
discovery of cargo of three hum
dred tons of human bones being
discharged there to the order of q
local firm engaged in manufactur-
ing manure. The bones were ship
ped from Rodosto at Constantino-
Pile, and are supposed to be the re-
mains principally of the defenders
of Plevna. There are complete
limbs among the horrible cargo,
and In some cases the hair adheres
to the skulls. Peter Cooper says it
ia q common thing among the
British to buy human bones; in
fact they will take all they can get
at any time and from any part of
the world. They use them for ma
nuring their land. I have often
heard it said that England was
manured with bones taken from the
battlefield of Waterloo.

ELBERoN, Sept. Is AT the
morning dressing at $50 A. NJ. to-
day, the Presidents temperature
was 98 40; pulse, 100; respiration,
20. He passed the night comforta-
bly,, sleeping until 8 A. NJ, when he
was wakeful for two hours, during
which time his pulse rose to 800,
but without the marked elevation
of temperature which has charac.
terized the febrile disturbance
heretofore. After this time he
slept till morning. More nourish-
ment was taken during the night
than fer several nights past. Tn
reviewing the case of the Presi-
dent since his arrival at Long
Branch, it may be said that in
spite of various septic accidents
which have for several weeks, and
do still, complicate his case, he has
certainly not retrograded, but on
the contrary has made some pro-
gress towards convalescence.
Private Secretary Brown says
the President feels. brighter this
morning. The weather is cool.
Hamilton Expasseses onu Feels
Hopeful
LONG BRANCH, N. j., Sept. Is.
The President passed a comforta-
bic night, and Bliss says that if he
did not make good progress last
night he is not competent to Judge.
There was no foundation for the
rumor that an operation was COM
temptated to relieve the lungs.
Agpew also denied the story. The
first he heard Of it was in the
morning papers. Bliss goes to
New ork for few hours to-Iay.
Hamilton veptured an opinion on
the Presidents chances of recovery
to friend this morning, which
briefly stated, is in substance that
the septic condition of the Presi-
DENTS blood will surely cause fiuct-
ustions of the pulse, temperature
and respiration from time to time
until it is entirely eliminated. He
considers iG safe to say
that the President will over
come the disturbances which
may occur from the impurity
of the blood, but it is altogether
probable that various annoyances
will be occasioned before the pa
tient is entirely rid of blood poison.
He believes the President will even
tusIly overcome the effects of the
poisonous blood, and after that is
ace cJmplished his recuperation will
be very rapid. 1t will probably
take to accomplish this about five
weeks. Present indications give
very reasonable ground for believ-
ing that the President would ulti-
mately recover and be- as we'll as
ever. The President EXPIRE ssed
desire for u porterhouse steak,
which is being prepared for him.
Boynton considers that as long as
the President holds his own, the
chances are in his favor,
and that while his condition
to-day is as we'll as yesterday
there cannot be said to be any
marked change. The President
was placed in his reclining chair at
noon.

ton says he is having q good day.
No material change in the pulse or
temperature since the morning
bulletin.
He Discusses POrterhnuse steak.
LONG BRANCH, Sept. 15th.-The
| Presidents condition continues
favorable. He has eaten three
teaspoons full of minced porter
house steak and swallowed the

Chronic soOd-P0ssonang.
New YORK, Sept. 15.-The Posts
Long Branch reporter says that
one reason for the delay OF the bull
letin this morning was the care ex-
pended by the surgeons on its
phraseology. For the first time
the surgeons commit themselves to
the statement that the President
suffers from chronic blood poison
Ing. Their language is intended
to be reassuring; but Il is very easy
to see that they feel anxious as to
the issue of the complications to
which they refer.
