front wall Of the abdomen, imme-
diately over the groin, about FIVE
inches below the right of the navel.
The experiments this morning were
repeated several times and we're made
by Professors Bell and Tainter inde-
pendently SO as to guard as much as
possible against errors arising from
the faulty perception Of a single indi-
vidual or from one persons mistaken
judgment as to the comparative
intensity Of the sounds. In every in
stance, however, when the small discs
attached to the machine were placed
in such position on the patients body
as to indicate the location Of the black
and blue spot which appeared on the
lower right side Of the abdomen, soon
after the President was shot. The list
ener at the microphone said that he
heard evidences of disturbance. 1t
made no difference whether the
experimenterh could see the discs
or not. WIPneyer theyI were placed
in that particular position he became
instantly aware of the fact and an
nOunced it. The experiments were
varied and continued until all we're
convinced that the bullet had been
found, or at least located on straight
line running through the body
from the front to the back
just above the groin or right
side. 1t was not possible to ascertain
with any degree Of certainty as to Il g
depth at which the ball lies imbeddod,
but the front wall of the abdomen at
this point is about two and hall
inches in thickness. The ball must
he within that distance of the surface,
These results fully confirm the
original diagnosis of the case
made by the attending Surg ons
soon after the President received the
injury and that the fact is as crafty
lug to them as complete a success as
the induction balance is to Professors
Bell and Tainter. This is the FIRST in,
stance in which an imbedded bullet
has been accurately and def6ni ely
located without probing and by purely
scientific methods There is nc
intention an the part of the surgeons
to perform an operation for the re
moval of the ball at present. So Ions
as it gives no trouble it will be allowet
to remain in its present placed. Tht
question Of the disposition to be
finally made of it will be considered
when the President shall have recov.
cred his strength.

Special Dispatch to Cincinnati eo,etto.l

Special Dispatch to Cincinnati Gazette.l
NEWPORT, K. L., July 27.-The
preparation on Saturday morning for
experimenting with Weeks rocket
torpedo at the torpedo station were in
terrupted, owing to the giving way Of
a portion Of the raft from which the
missile was to have been launched.
The composition becoming wet neccs /.
STATED a postponement until this
morning. The rocket torpedo is a
great curiosity in the way of marine
warfare. 1t consists of float con-
structed of tin and sheet iron, braced
internally with wood. There are a
couple of rudders similar to tie tails
ola sky rocket. The fat portion is
about eleven feet long, the rudder be-
ing the same length. The forward
part or head contains fifty pounds of
dynamite, and the whole structure is
propelled by a rocket weighing one
huadred pounds. 1t moves on the
surface of the water with velocity of
1859 feet per second from 500 to 900
yards. 1t is aimed at its object, and
moves in a straight line, guided by
the rudders, the torpedo exploding by
concussion. The torpedo may be set
in the water from wharf, raft or
ship. 1t is fred either by electricity
or percussion. The rocket, six inches
in diameter and three and half feet
long, is protected from wet by a tin
stopper, through which the electric
wires for igniting pass.
The torpedo has been very success
fully experimental with on the Poto-
mac. The principal object of testing
here is to see how it would behave IN
rough water. The board appointed to
report on this torpedo consisted of
Lieutenant Commanders Bradford
aud Edes, Lieutenant Meigs and Mas.
ter A. L. Case, Jr. The arrangements
for the experiments were all made on
the west side of the torpedo station.
Captain Sellridge, Commander; Cap
tain p. q. johnson, of the United
States Navy, and Lieutenant Com.
mander +. Il. Chadwick, ofthe United
States Navy, we're present, besides the
board above mentioned. The inyen-
tor, Weeks, was present and person.
ally superintended the trial.
After the various parts had been
put together the whole was raised by a
derrick and lowered into the water

LONDON, Augustl.-The Standard,
in an article on the harvest, says that
the general opinion in Mark Lane is
that there is an average wheat crop in
England, and a great majority of the
reports from the different districts
confirm that statement. The barley
crvp cannot fail to be an average one.
Root crops are less promising than
they have been at this period for many
years. The prospects in Scotland are
much less favorable than in England.
The most auspicious reports of all
crops come from Ireland.

despatch Of Earl Granalte, Foreign
Secretary to Lord Duferin, British
ambassador to Turkey, which in
structed the latter to advise the Porte
to exercise great prudence, not giving
cause for plausible complaint to the
French. The note will point out the
dangers to which the Turkish prov
inces are exposed and the necessity
in taking immediate steps for guaran-
teeing the order OF the Porte, while
declaring that it will not shrink from
fulfilling the duty to protest before
hand against any wrong Interpretation

inferred that the information which
the Home Secretary obtained Of the

actually obtained from a perusal Of

BISMARCK.
Sitting Bull and % Number Of
Chiefs Meet with q Reception.

BISMARCK, D. T., July 31.-'rhe
steamer General Sherman with Sitting
Bull, White Dog, Scarlet Thunder,
Four Horns, High -as-the- Clouds,
Bone Thunder and Sitting Bulls sis
ter, Pretty Plume, on board bound
for Fort Yates, arrived here this
morning. They were greeted by over
two thousand people at the levee.
Sitting Bull and staff were given a
banquet by Captain G. W. Bachelor,
of Pittsburg, and B. D. Vermily,
private secretary of General Manager
Haupt, of the Northern Pacific. Sit
ting Bull refused to ride on the car;
preferred a wagon. Didn't understand
locomotive power sufficiently to risk
his life. This is the Grst white city
Sitting Bull ever saw. He was given
reception at the hotel and
relished the dinner hugely. He
couldn't see how ice cream was frozen
in summer time, and though diguifed
yet asks many questions of. the inter.
prefer. His two wives and two pair
twins were with him. His wife is
called a pretty woman among the
Sioux, and really her features are not
bad. Sitting Bull is fOrty-seven years
old and is in perfet health, except his
eyes are weak, causing him to wear
glasses. He did not make any speech
except the usual pow WOW and was
perfectly Independent. He has seven
children, the youngest twins, aged
four winters. Crowfootis seven years
old, and is the son through whom he
delivered up his gun to Major
BrathertSn, is a bright little
fellow and is twin brother
Of the child who brings word from
the lodges. While here Sitting Bull
sold several pipes and trinkets at
enormous figures, and sold his auto
graph to those who wanted it. He
writes his own name in English well,
but does not speak the language. He
has some French education, but in
general appearance he is a full -blooded
Sioux. At6 o'clock the boat left for
the agency, where there are already
700 Of his tribe under the protection
Of the six companies of soldiers. His
meeting with his nephew Gaul, his
daughter and other relatives to-mor-
row will be an interesting scene.

AFTER a year Of patient suffering,
DR.. Geo. A. Mathes. late of the
Brownsville States, breathed his last,
at the residence of his brother on
Cynthia street in this city yesterday
afternoon, between three and four
o'clock. DR.. Mathes was in the S8th
year of his age, having been born on
the 18th day Of October, 1874, near
cambridge, Jefferson county, East
Tennessee, where his father, the Rev.
VIM. A. Mathes, still resides. The
deceased was consistent member of
the Presbyterian church, a quiet gem
tleman, and performed his duty
through life with an earnest vigor de-
void Of ostentation, which was the
admiration Of a large circle Of personal
friends who knew and appreciated
his worth. He served through the
war as a soldier in the ranks Of
the Thirty-seventh Tennessee In
fantry, his first engagement be.
ing in the disaster under Zollicoffer at
Mill Springs, near Somerset, Ken
lucky, and at Peach Tree Creek, July
10th, 1864, a desperate wound disabled
him from further active serrice. Just
seven months ago yesterday his con-
sort, formerly Mary Dulin, of South
Carolina, passed away victim to the
same fell destroyer, which had then
marked him for his own. Three small
daughters, the eldest scarcely old
enough to realize her great affliction
survive. The remains of the deceased
were conveyed to Brownsville, Tenn,
early this morning and they will be
laid to their final rest this afternoon
by the side Of her who for nearly seven
years was his devoted life companion
Their spirits are now united in the
heavenly realms above.

How CrIckets March IN Oregon.
Acorrespondent of the Idaho States
man, writing from North Powder

on Burnt river and Willow creek,
travelling over about seventy. i've
miles Of territory-bunch grass hills
and along the whole distance, from
ten miles below Old's Ferry, on Snake
river, to Ironsides mountain, and
averaging about five miles in width,
the earth presented a black, moving,
shrieking mass of crickets (orthop-
tera). While those crickets are not
80 destructive as the locust (grass-
hopper), they nevertheless devour
gardens, grain fields and much tender
vegetation in their path, | saw many
gardens which they had left wreck.
They cross streams, bitches and
mountains, and seem to move in
columns, but with little regularity.
They have no wings, hence they de-
pend upon their lever-like legs, or
hoppers, for locomotion. They are
not much like the chimney black criek-
ct. They are fearful cannibals, Staying
aud eating each other with a ravenous
appetite. They have no sting or dan
gerous nipperS, hence are not danger
GUS to the human family, so far as in
flieting wounds. The way these crick-
cts cross streams is amusing. When
they come to stream of water which
they think" they can cross they
climb every object along the margin,
and when as high as they can ascend
they shut their eyes and give one long
dangerous, and sometimes fatal, lean
into the water, shut up like a jack
knife, and float down until they come
in contact with an object, then they

EXECUTIVE MANSION, 1l:45 am.
The President is passing quiet,
comfortable day. Under the super
vision Of the attending physicians
Profs. Bell and Tainter this merning
made another application to the pa
TENTS body of the electrical apparatus
known as the induction balance, with
view to completing the tests Of Sat.
urday, which we're not entirely con-
elusive, and ascertaining definitely
and certainly the possible location Of
the ball. Professors Bell and
Tainter have been almost constantly
engaged for two weeks in experiments
with the induction balance, and have
made several notifications and i'm
provements, which greatly add to its
efficacy. They tried the improved
apparatus on the Presidents body for
the hrst time last Saturday, and al
though it indicated family the loca-
ton of the ball.. it was afterward
found to be slightly OutOf adjustment,
and the experiment was not regarded
as perfectly conclusive. The result Of
this mornings tests, however, are en-
tirely satisfactory, both to Professors
Bell and Tainter and to attending
surgeons and it SPONTANEOUSLY agreed
that the location Of the ball has been
ascertaiued with reasonable exactness
and certainty and shat it lies, as here
tofore stated in the dispatches, in the
