LOWELL, LONDON.
Elberon, 15.--The Presidents con-
ditiOn does not appear to have un-
dergone any material change to-day.
All his symptoms continue subStan-
italy the same as yesterday, except
that eXpectoratiOn from the right
lung has been rather less difficult
and less profuse. He is still very
weak, and as this weakness is due to
the condition of the blood, while it
continues grave anxiety must also
continue.
(Signed) MACVEAGH.
Long Branch, 15.-The President
passed about as good q day as yes
Uerday. without any material differ
ence in his condition. The language
of the morning bulletin excited
general comment, especially among
representatives of the press, who
have been maintaining that there
were indications of blood poisoning
in the Presidents case. Diligent
inquiry, to-day, failed to elicit any
explanation of the phrase septic"
which was used in the morning bull
letin, beyond the fact that it indi-
Gated an impurity of the blood, or
in other words, blood poisoning.
Previous to the issuance of the
morning bulletin conference Of the
attending surgeOns-Bliss, Agnew
and Hamilton-was held, and it is
understood was prolonged by an
argument as to what should be an
nOunced.

Irish National Convention.

Dublin, 15.-About / eco delegates
attended the opening proceedings
OF tie national convention, to-day.
Biggar, j. II. O'COnnor, Sexton,
V. II. Early and Sullivan were pres
ent. Previous TO the opening OF
the conversion a conference OF
delegates from the labor league
was held and Sexton then in
formed them that the convention
would adjourn the consideration OF
questions affecting labOrers until
tomorrow, for the purpose of en-
abling labor delegates to confer
with Parnell and the executive Of
the Land League. Twenty-One
members of Parliament were pres
ent. Parnell, amidst the greatest
enthusiasm, took the chair. Sexton

nell, IN his opening speech, referred
to the thinning of their ranks
by the coercion act since the last
convention. He said that for every
ten Imprisoned, 100 would join the
League. He recapitulated the raso-
buttons, and said the question set for
amendment was the most import
ant. He always considered it could
never be settled as long as questions
in regard to rent remained in dis
pute. The land act left the reR5
question as continuation of strife
between the different classes in
Ireland. He had no doubt this was
deSignedly so arranged by the
British government. He warned
the farmers not to put their
trust in the land act. It was.
designed to break the League. Ne
body should appeal to the land
courts until Il test case, prepared by
the League, had been submitted
They should press forward to ab0I-
ish landlOrdiSm and to legislative
independence. He advised farmers
to borrow money under the land act
so as to give work to labOrerS and
invited the latter to join the
branches of the LeagAe. He
pledged himself to head the labor
ers' movement, if the farmers wOulG
not give them fair play.

were threats to stop American sub

Parnell argued that fair rent
could be the value Of land in a state

Am Unheard of Divorce Case

Chicago, b. An extraordinary
divorce case was in the superior
court to-day. Mrs. Elizabeth Falvy
mOdestly asked a divorce from two
husbands. In 1865 she married Den
mis- Falvy, at Lynn, Mass, but in
1872 he deserted her. Two years
later Edward Homes told her Falvy
was dead and induced her to marry
him. Subsequently she learned that
Falvy was not only living at Quincy,
but was married to another woman
and had several children. Mrs.
Falyy therefore asks to be re-
leased from Falvy because of his
gross violation of the marital
VOWS; and from Homes because she
could not legally contract the mar
riage when she married him. The
case is uneQualled in the history of
divorces.

of the case makes the relations between
the gas manufacturer and consumer an

impossible. A gas company is form of

The gas-meter is a liar.

While everybody knows from many bit.
ter experiences that it is scarcely equaled
by the average Louisiana political witness,
the gas-meter is the only liar which is
wholly destitute Of conscience. 1t is be.
yound the reach of fine and imprisonment
and cannot be prosecuted for contempt of
court. The witness may lie by instinct,
through partisan motives, or for SO much
money. On the other hand, the gas-meter
is an open brazen, mechanical liar, whose
despicable service is without fear of pun
ishment or hope OF reward. 1t is an Off
cial liar, standing between plunderers and
plundered, a cold-blooded calculator,
without shame Or compunction. That it
usually carries on this iniquitous career
by night is no evidence of modesty but
that, like all rogues, it may the more sue
cesstully prosecute its villainOus course
while honest people are asleep. It exists
as false witness against men and
glolies i'll its own shame. Everybody
knows this.

Druukeh and DisOrderly Conduct.

Yesterday afternoon y party of young
men assembled at ranch corner of Straw
berry and Lafayette streets, and after
drinking several kegs of beer, became
quarrelsomc, and whipped young coun-
tryman who had treated them to one or
two kegs of beer, and then stole his hat
and kicked him into the street. At later
hour some Of the party appeared in front
of the Plow tavern, when one of them, a
young man named Jacob Kautz, insulted
a man who in return struck him Il terrible
blow in the face, knocking him down and
breaking his nose. Kautz went into the
Plow tavern to wash the blood from his
face, and there he became so abusive tow

ordered out of the house, and refusing to
go was forcibly elected. It is said that
