that the road has really made

WASHINGTON, September 7.-Henry G.
Venhor arrived In this city yesterday. Last
evening, In response to inquiries, he wrote
the following forecast OF the weather:
The indications recently observed and
gathered from the telegraphic dispatches of
the day, appearto inc to point to very wet
weather generally over the North Ameri.
Gun Continent, and perhaps particularly
in the Northwest Territories, on and after
the 10Th Of the present month, while In
England cold and stormy weather, possibly
WITH snow fall in the Northern sections,
is likely TO occur In the neighborhood Of
the 2lst and 22d days. Wet weather on
this side Is likely through the latter half OF
the present month and into October. Du.
ring this latter month the outcry Is likely
TO be Too much ruin, and sleet and snow
will fall early in the Northern sections
wlthshatp trosts In November.
The November irOsts will disappear for
a time, md some very fine and balmy
weather is likely to form a feature Of these
months.

Reorganization OF the PreSidenCs Medi
---- cal C0FpH.

Many persons have been Of the opinion
that the President was suffering from a
plethora Of doctors around him, and It ap.
pears that there was partial disbandment
OF the corps yesterday. This change was
iorcshadowed in private adviCes that leaked
out at Washington prior to the removal.
1t seems that the President attributed the
delay in his removal to too much medical
consultation, Prior to the removal he told
d.. Bliss that he only wanted him and
Doctors Agnew and Hamilton to accom-.
pany him to Long Branch. That is, he
wished to dispense with the services Of
Barnes, Woodward and RcYburn.
DR.. Bliss demonstrated against any change
being made but the President was firm,
and Alid II the three he had named were
not sufficient, upon arriving at Long
Branch, experienced surgeons could be
called from New York. As DR.. Woodward
had been keeping Il medical record OF the
C,lse DR.. Bliss was anxious he should be re-
tanned, but neither the President or NIs
Garfield, who was spoken to about II, would
yield. Finally DR.. Agnew WINS induced to
interrede in behalf OF DR.. Woodward, and
he succeeded in arranging Il compromise
with the President, 30 TINT all the six sur.
gcons should accompany him to Long
Branch, and then Barnes, Woodward and
Reybnrn should retire from the ctlse alto
getuer. This arrangement will be carried
out unless the publicity necessitatos an ex-
tension OF the period, no that 1t may not
appear that the three named have been dis
missed from the case. A Sun cOrrespon-
dent WIS told by one OF the three surgeons
tonight that the dismissal OF the three
surgeons was tho Presidents own doing,
and the result Of conclusion that he mud
too many physicians, and because OF the
overriding Of DR.. Hamilton some three
weeks ago, when the question Of removal
was Under consideration.
