BY the Courts, as the Judges are away from
the city: Postmaster Pearson says to-
day that in the event Of the
death OF the President the business of the
Post~ohices would be partially suspended for
half a day. Il the body should be brought
to this city, all tile doors Of tho POST Office
would be closed, for the first time in the
history Of the building, during an entire day.
WILL pEAS FOR THE PRESIDENTS EEcoy-
EHY.
Vlcar-General Quinn informed a Times
reporter this evening that prayers would not
be offered publicly for the Presidents recoy-
cry in the Catholic churches, hut that doubt
less all good Catholics, remembering the re-
cent appeal Of Tie Cardinal, will pray pri-
vately, not only in the churches during the
progress OF the masses, but also in their
homes. 1t was not deemed necessary, the
Vicar-Genera1 added, to make any public re-
quests from the affairs in behalf of the suf-
ferlng President in view of the Cardinals
appeal, which. however, thu pastors would
be at liberty to emphasize if they choose to
do 50.

At'IA1sENI 1ENoks OF lsEso1GSAflDNs
Sntrkol Ef:oa,ea 70 Tia CHICAGO Tribune
NEW IoEK, Aug. E.-There was very lit
tic Of loud comment or discussion OIL TIL
streets to-day. The apparent sense Of res
ignation to the approaching death Of prcsi
dent Garfield which became marked yester
day afternoon prevailed among all classe:
of people. The interest in the
bulletins, which were posted in different
parts~of the city, continued unabated, ane
eager but silent crowds held their places in
front OF many Of the downtown newspaper
Offices all through the day and until late in
the evening. Each new bulletin was read
reread, and read again i'll the vain
desire that the language might yield some
glcam OF hope,-sOme reason to believe that
death might be averled. As the afternoon
passed the interest seemed to become more
intense; its expression at least was more
spirited. About o'clock story was cur
rent declaring that
vICE-rREsIDENT ARTHUR
had been officially summoned to Washing
ton. The report was quite generally ac-
cepted as true, and earnest discussions of
the Vice-President and certain of his asso-
ciates relieved the mollotony of the
gloomy waiting and watching. There
was an entire absence Of anything
like excitement i'll financial and commercial
circles in regard to the impending death Of
the President The event has been 50 long
feared, dreaded, hoped against and
has still been so threateningly near
during, many weeks, that public feel
ing has settled down into a state
Of quiet depression and sympathy. Among
the earliest callers upon ce-President
Arthur was Col George Bliss, who remained
about an hour. Gen. Arthur, it was said,
was much depressed by the alarming news
from the White House. He said to an Ill
Quirer that.
ItE Had RECEIVED NO SUMMONS
from Washington to go to that city. an.l that
there was certainly no reason why llc should
go in haste in any event. Later in the day
ex-senator Roscoe Conkiiilg and Senator
John r. Jones, Of Nevada, were
among the callers. The Vice-president
declined to see the representatives of
newspapers, and merely instructed the col
ored boy, who opened the door to visitors,
to tell tile reporters that there was nothing
he desired to say for publication. In the
early part of the afternoon the col
orcd boy said that the Eice-presldent
would not take the 11:40' train. for
Washington, and in the evening the same boy
was authorized to say that the Vice-Presl-
dent would positively not go to Washington
on either the 10o'clock OF the midnight train,
and that If he received n message
tonight sumlnoning him to Washington
lie would not start until Sunday morning.
Col. Bliss visited Gen. Arthur several times
during the afternoon and evening, but to
the reporters said that there: was
.. ''Nor1I1NG OF PUBLIC INTEREST
i'll the Vice-President's house.
at 4 late honr Il number of gentlemen were
sitting il, s,'tbe basement and Gen.
Arthur was atohe in his study upstairs.
Should the Presideht die before Monday the
United States Commissioners Offices in the
Federal Building will <bbe closed on that day.

| WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 2os-1 a. init
| is learned that the Cabinet has been exa,nin-
ing the message sent by Lincoln's Cabinet to
Vice-presidcnt Andrew johnson after the
death Of Lincoln. This message, after recit-
| ing the fact of the assassination and
| death, concluded. "By the death of
President Lincoln the office Of President
has dcvolyed under the Constitution upon
you. Tile emergency of tile Government
demands that you should Immediately quail
fy according to the requirement. Of the Com
stitution, and enter upon the duties Of prcsi-

will please make known your pleasure,
such arrangements as you may deem
proper will be lnade.'' The fact that the
Cabinet have been examining this precedent,
and the further fact that tile Postmaster
General has gone to New York, by request
Of the Cabinet, to confer with Arthur, illdi-
Gates how little real hope they have in the
Presidents recovery.
