frequent intervals. He has taken since
last evening a larger quantity of food by
the mouth than in the corresponding hours
of any day during the past week. The use
Of nutritive enema is continued at longer
intervals. The parotid swelling is N
changed. Pulse 100. temperature 1914,
respiration Is.
DR.. Bliss feels encouraged at the condi-
ton he finds the patient this morning. |
He says the President rested well during
the night, and that beef tea was given to
him several times and retained by the
stomach. His pulse this morning at an
early hour ranged at 100. The condition
Of the President to-day does not vary ma
terialiy from that of yesterday. He has
passed as good a night as that of Sunday,
and a better one than that of Saturday,
but the main difference is hat he has had
less annoyance from accumulation Of
phlegm in the throat. This secretion OF
the parotid gland is much less now. There
is no cause of apprehension from suppura-
ton, which. it is thought, will almost dis
appear during the day. IN this account
he has been spared the painful effort of
LIS ~ nav hSRs
him awake the two preceding nights. In
all other respects he appears to be at a halt
between life and death. Yesterdays bulle-
tins instituted no comparisons with any
previous conditions. Such comparisons
have been a marked popularity Of the Off
cial utterances, and have been entirely
misleading. Their absence shows that the
true condition of the patient is ap-
parent to at least a majority of
those who sign the bulletins. The slight
variations Of the pulse and temperature
have been unimportant factors in the
Presidents case. He has been sinking
slowly but surely-slipping away from the
tender and skilful hands which have
sought to hold him back. That those who
see him every hour as weeks roll away
should fail to notice the signs of his dimin-
ished hold on life, is but repeating the ex-
perience of tens of thousands of loving
households bereaved in the midst of hope.
For several weeks one member of the Cab
met has been under taboo at the White
House for holding and expressing a belief
that Guiteau had succeeded in his wicked
work; that the wound was a death-wouGd,
and that his heart was full of pity for use
less suffering. This taboo must now GER
ta;nly be extended to all the Cabinet. Mr..
Blaine's dispatch of last night disclosed to
tne WORTH HHdt mas Dt6u Known lOr several
days, that the Secretary of State had
abandoned hope when he came here and
saw the condition Of affairs. :
1890 P. M.-Oficial bulletin: The Presi-
dent continues to take by mouth an in
creased quantity Of liquid food. At the
morning dressing the wound was well and
the pulse WAS Of u healthy character. The
mucus accumulating iii the back of the
mouth on account Of the parotid swelling
is less viscid, and now gives but little
trouble. AT present the plfse is 104, tenn

BIoody Reclamation.
Houston (Texas), Aug. 23.-The law
l~essness that has prevailed in Orange
County the past few weeks, which grew
out of an attempt to assassinate Sheriff
Mitchell, eliminated last night in the
capture and shooting of four of the negro
participants by a party Of $50 leading cit
liens. Bob Sexton, n Of the leaders,
was also captured. He revealed in his
confession the plot to kill the Sheriff and
gave much other information, and was
then hanged. Another negro was then
arrested and hanged. An hour later Sam
Saxon, another negro leader, surrendered
and was lodged in jail. The Sheriff was
o~verpowered and Saxon with the negro
criminals was taken out n their bodies
filled with buckshot. Charles Daiano, one
OF the gang, will be tried tomorrow. AS
numerous friends and relatives have ex-
pressed a determination to rescue him, an
appeal has been made to the Governor
for aid.
Almost a Parallel Case.
New York. August %. "A Telegram
Washington special says: General Wales.
of the NAVY, has now q case under his
charge, in which the blood has been vitat-
ed from a wound received weeks before the
President was shot. There is the same pa
rotid ~glandular swelling, succeeded later by
an abscess to the number of twenty. The
pulse has varied for two months between
100 and 100. This patient has been nour-
ished for six weeks solely upon beef extract
and brandy, taken in minute doses, at fire.
quent intervals, and sometimes by enema.
Wales has little il any hope of recovery in
the case referred to, hut thinks his patient
may linger for another month, and per-
haps two. He says the President, If he re-
covers, will need fully two months to get
rid of the depravity of his blood, and dur
ing that time he will suffer more than he
has vet done. Wales thinks thatseptic@mia |
has been the retaIding influence ever since
the first incision on the 23d of July.
A Contemplate Cur.
New YoRK, August GA dispatch

Of x-Confederates 10 that city, at which

made q speech, in which he declared that
he was not sorry that Garfield was shot,
and proclaimed his readiness to kill Yam
KEGS again. Hhe dispatch says: "Unfortu-
nately he was not put off the grounds, but his
remarks were condemned, to fall fat. He
seemed unabashed by the GOODNESS with
ON 10 the same vein till he sat down quietly,
TO the relief of all who were 50 unfortunate
as to listen to him."
