itself in swelling OF the throat. One
phase OF the case that is regarded as
favorable is the improvement in
the stomach. II the proper tood
can be taken by the President
it is believed he can be yet
pulled through, despite these complica-
tions that arise. The Inflammation, how.
ever, has produced feeling OF depres-
sion that is observable everywhere.
Drs. Bliss and Reyburn say there is no
reason to regard the swelling OF the neck
as foreboding serious results, and that
it will not interfere with the recovery.
They expect a boil or abscess to form
there and supparate. Bliss and Reyburn
say the other surgeons agree that the
swelling is not serious and causes no
alarm.
TIE Cause Of the Complication.
WASHINGTON, August lS.-The case
may be summed up with the statement
that the parotld gland secrets the saliva,
and that when no nourishment is taken
in a natural way for time there is no
demand made upon the saliva and 1t
therefore naturally secrets itself
in the parotid gland and
after remaining too long causes
Inflammation. According to this
theory it is fair to assume that the seeds
of complication were sown during the
time the patient was unable to take
nourishment in g natural way, and now
that he has been able to retain what he
swallowed the saliva is drawn upon again
and the irritation will probably gradu-
ally decrease. OF course, there are
different views on the subject. This
theory, compared with a number ad-
vanced, appears to be the one most gen.
orally accepted by those who have
watched the case closely.

Says the Patient Is Dying From Pyaemia.
and Nothing Under Heaven Can Save
Him.
NEw York, August lS.-The New
York Evening Express contains lengthy
interview had with ex Surgeon. n.General
VIM. A. Hammond yesterday msrning.
Or. Hammond said he had anticipated
the last relapse OF President Garfield as
a natural consequence OF his debilitated
condition, and that 1t would lead almost
directly to his decease. Continuing, Dr.
Hammond is quoted as saying;
"The case does, and has throughout
its various developments, point to all
the symptoms OF pyaemia. The low
respiration, the increased but hutterlng
pulse, the growing temperature, the
inability of the patients stomach
to sustain food, the gradual vast.
ing away OF the body, the
pinched appearance OF the features, and
especially of the nose, the comatose state
in which his waking hours are passed,
and the general disintegration OF the
system, are conclusive indications that
the patient is fatally poisoned and can
not live. The attending physicians have
neglected this view OF the case entirely.
They have been treating him in the an
ticipation of the development OF periton-
tits, and have, according to this hypoth-
esis, been reducing him in flesh by a
most ascetic diet, where they should
have given him nutritious food to build
his system up to the highest standard.
This dieting business has induced this
collapse, for it approaches that
more than a relapse. | think that
this relapse is the anal one, al
though hope am mistaken, and that,
instead of recuperating, his condition
will continue to be grievous unto death.
The longest time recorded for patient
to live when suffering from py9 mia ls
three months, ard because of the Presi-
dents weakened condition he will not
last even that long. l think that the
conclusion of the attending physicians
that the President is suffering from dys-
pepture is the most ridiculous one they
could arrive at. He is suffering from
dyspepture no more than | am-he is
dying from py@mia, and nothing under
heave n can save him. The fact that the
surgeons did not Immediately ascertain
the Presidents exact condition has done
more than anything to kill him. 1t IS
neglect, inhuman neglect, that will kill
President Garfield"

THE BORDER TROUBLES.
The Cause OF the Recent Slaugh-
ter-Cattle Thieves Against
Cattle Thieves-The Gravity OF
the Situation Increasing.

the Situation Increasing.
SAN Francisco, August lS.-A Tomb
stone dispatch from Epitap contains the
following particulars of the border
troubles: A party consisting OF VIM.
Long, Dick Gray, Jim Crane, Charles
Snow, Thomas D. Clinton, VIM. Birers
and Harry Ernshine camped last Friday
night in the Guydeloupe canon, ! 10 miles
east from Tombstone and very near to
the Mexican line. Early Saturday morn
ing the party was attacked by Mexicans,
and Long, Gray, Crane, Snow and Clinton
were killed. Birers escaped with
wound in the abdomen, while Ernshine
ran amidst a shower OF bullets. tits
estimated that the Mexican party num-
bered twenty-five to thirty men. The
condition of the camp indicated that an
attack was made just as the murdered
men were getting up. They had evil
IDENTIFY been killed while yet lying down.
Crane was a fugitive from justice and
was an outlaw, and the six bullets that
struck him were we'll expended.
Long was man about twen-
ty.two years OF age, and had
been in that section OF country with
cattle about three months. He came to
Arizona from Kansas about five months
ago. He and his father are men OF large
capital, and have had extended exper-
ience in the stock business. The son
was bringing in some cattle for the
Tombstone market when killed. The
immediate cause Of the killing is as
follows: A party OF "Rustlers, as they
are called, went into Mexico last month
and stole some cattle. They were fol-
lowed by the Mexicans, who got so close
upon them that they were obliged to
abandon the stock. This was done in the
vicinity OF the late murder. The Mexi.
cans took the stock and started home,
and at that time picking up such cattle
and horses as they chanced to meet.
The stock was missed and party OF
sixteen Mexicans started in pursuit,
overlook the MexiCans, had fight with
them and took the stock. This occurred
during the latter part OF July. 1t ispro-
bable that the recent raiders were some
OF the same party defeated last month.
Great ex .itement prevails in Tombstone
and the vicinity, and large party has
been raised TO avenge the murders
OF the Clinton boys, whose. father was
also murdered. A body OF men,
altogether numbering over two hundred
and as desperate gang as could be i'm.
agined, will carry the aar into Mexico.
Grrat apprehension is ieIt for the Amer
cans IN sonora, as 1t will more than likely
be 8 war of retaliation. We are hourly
expecting a collision. The Mexican
troops are in force on the line and will
repel the invaders. Gov. Fremont be-
ing absent, there is no head to the Amer
lean forces and lawlessness seems to be
the order of the day. Serious interna'
tional complications will arise unless
immediate steps are taken.
