A QUESTION OF vERACITY,

EXECUTIVE MANSION, Aug. 1S.-The
publication of an alleged extract from a
letter written by DR.. Bliss to a friend in
Chicago, in which he is quoted as saying
that he holds no interviews with newspa-
per correspondents, but that they insist
upon inventing false and foolish conversa-
tions with him, and concluding with:
'Don't think the Presidents surgeons and
physicians are shallow fools because the
press gang here try to make them out
such, has been subject of considerable
comment among the members of the press
during the day, and in order to
obtain the facts in the case,
the article was clipped from Washington
morning paper and sent to DIR. Bliss, with
request that he should say in writing
whether or not he wrote the letter. The
response Dr.. Bliss returned is as follows
I'm reply to your note requesting to be
Informed if the enclosed slip from Chi
cigo paper was written by me, / have to
state that the paragraph is an entire fabri-
cation, and is only one of the many false
and cruel attacks upon me since have oc-
cnpied the position as surgeon in charge
of the president. / have not heretofore
thought proper to make any public denial
of these heartless attacks upon my charac-
ter and only now, in reply to your kind
note of this date, because you seem to
think it of sufficient Importance to call my
attention to it. Very truly yours,

THE NEW HAVEN MYSTERY.


New HAVEN, Conn, Aug. 1s.-It is
known that Blanche Douglass, in her con-
fession, said that while she was in New
York, after her first examination and be-
fore her arrest for perjury, Michael Malley
of this city, called on her, and asked her
how much the Malleys (meaning Walter
and James, Jr.) had paid her. She said
Walter paid her $50 when she took the cars
for New York. Michael asked her how
much would induce her to take the next
steamer for Europe. She said she didn't
want to go to Europe; that she was going
to return to New Haven. She says that on
Wednesday night, August 8, when she,
Jennie, Walter and James were at Edward
Malley's house, the girls drank ten
glasses of wine apiece and the boys one.
She went to bed with Walter, and James
carried Jennie up to his room, apparently
unconscious.

oFFICIoUs BLISS.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Dr. Bliss says
that Dr. Pomerine, of Ohio, who was
surgeon OF Gen. Garfeld,s regiment during
the war, came here soon after the presl-
dent was shot, and asked to be admitted
to the presidents room to see the patient
Bliss says he replied that it could not
possibly do the president any good
to let Pomerine see him, and might do
harm, but he promised Pomerine to submit
his request to Judge Swayn, which he did,
who fatty refused to assent to permitting
any visit from Pomerine
DR.. Bliss reported this decision to Pom
crime, day or two later says Bliss, DR..
Pomerine went to the White House, went
through the reception room up stairs, and
slipped into the Presidents room while his
surgeons were all absent from the room
and that while Pomerine was beside the
President talking to him. DIR. Reybourne
entered the room and very peremptorily
invited Pomerine to leave. Bliss says
Pomerine sneaked into the Presidents
