The Terrible Monday Night.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

LONG BRANCH, Sept. 20.-Mendav night
was one of hurry, excitement, anxiety and
work, such as Long Branch has never seen and
will not see again There was neither sleep
nor quiet except at Francklyn Cottage be-
tween the hours of four when the last of the
newspaper men left and six O'Clock, when
they began TO arrive from West End. The
news came with terrible suddenness despite
the fact that every body was waiting and
watching for the end, and the anxiety to Sc
cure accurate facts which at first promised to
be difficult, prevented any attempt of
narration of details. Half the newspaper
men long on duty at Washington and here
| were tired out and had gone to bed. The
horses had been stabbed and only relay of
| men were on telegraph duty and in another
half an hour all the hotels and cottage resi-
dents would have been asleep. The announce
| ment that the president was sinking rapidly
changed all this. The livery men at the West
| End had all the men within call and the first
| coach reached Elberon within eight minutes
| from receipt of the first dispatch at West End,
three miles away, over bad road and on a
dark night.
| THE FIRST ALARM.
At the first alarm sleepy porters and half
awakened operators came down the stair
way half dressed and rubbing then
tired eyes, while on the outer
porch, shoes were hastily buttoned, and the
coaches started on after the other, overloaded
i with whoever could scramble in. The ocean
drive for the two miles was for six constant
hours q running parade of overdriven horses
and excited men, accompanied by glitterine
carriage lights. Coaches and carriages min
gled iudiscriminately with messenger boys oil
Horseback and occasional pedestrians.
