mrs. Garfield received him. She showed
visible emotion, but bore up well. In feel

recover and enjoy a peaceful and happy adj
ministration. A member of the cabinet ex-
planned that the attendan. physicians
had positively forbidden that the Pres

New YORK, July 5.-The Times Washing
ton special says: ,Vice-P President Arthur re-
manned all day at the residence of Senator
Jones. He had received messages from time
10 time showing the condition of the Presi-
dent. quite a number of persons called at
the house many did not succeed in seeing the
Vice President who was apparently not in
good health. To tell the truth, Mr.. Arthur
has suffered severely IN mind since receiving
the news of the shooting. Opportunities for
Misrepresentation have been 50 many it is
lot surprising if some were taken advan-
tage OF. Many statements which have been
made about him, the J imcS correspondent
has good reasons for believing to be untrue
His demeanor while in the city has been.
carefully watched. As a possible president,
his actions have been made the subiect nj
very general scrutiny, aud those who have
observed most CLOSELY are loudest In their
praises OF his cyttduct. He does not complain
OF many unfair criticisms which have been
made in print by men who are piqued because
he was not as apProachable as they wished.
