General Grants Condition.

DR.. Shrady telegraphed from Mount
McGregor to the Medical Record for It's satur-
day Issue the following official account Of Gen
eral Grants condition:
"The progress OF the disease from which
Gen. Grant is suffering lie, barring accidental
complications, GLOW, comparing the condition
Of the patient with what It was a month ago.
His voice has been reduced to whisper, due
partly to Inflammation, involving the vertical
cords, and partly to the nervous want OF tone
OF the latter. There was some impairment Of
the Generals strength and some loss in weight,
although his appetite Is unchanged, and the
usual amount OF nourishment is taken. The
removal to Mt. McGregor has so far proved
beneficial 1t has enabled the patient to re-
cover some lost ground, and thus in q measure
1t has counteroalanced the tuscts OF his local
malady."

The Yale Boat Race.

NEW LONDON, June 26.-Not in the
history Of Yale and Harvard aquatics has the
interest manifested previous to any race been
wrought to such high pitch Of excitement as
was before to-dsy's contest. Early last night
all the hotels we're crowded, and lodgings were
not to be had at any price. Night trains from
Boston and New York and New York boats
largely increased the number OF visitors, and
morning trains from all directions came in
crowded. An unusually large amount Of
money has been put up on the result OF the
race, the final betting being about even. At s
O'Clock the water was in excellent condition,
there being but slight ripple and very light
southwest wind.
As the time for the race approached the ex
citement became intense, especially among the
Yale men, over a report that Captain Flanders
was Ill and could not row. A Yale official who
was seen on the subject confirmed the report
of the captains illness, but added that al
though Flanders was sick 1t would be better
for him to row than to make change in the
stroke. This story changed the betting to 100
to so in Harvard's favor. About 9:45
a. m. the breeze freshened considerably
and blew almost square across the
course. This was considered an advantage
for Yale. The water had grown quite rough
at 10 o'clock. At II 25 1word was given and
Yale then took the water very quickly and oh.
tanned lead Of about two feet. Harvard set
tied to work, however, and at fifty yards from
the start had drawn even aud was beginning to
draw ahead. In less than 800 yards Harvard
show ed clear water. bet ven herself and Yale,
aad ale never got near her again. At the
first mile Harvard led by two lengths. Her
mile being minutes and 80 seconds. At a
mile and half Yale spurted and began to de-
crease the lead trife. Harvard Immediately
increased her stroke and began to draw ahead
again. AT mile and half Harvard's time
was 20 and the race was virtually over. At
two. miles Harvard led by three lengths. pull
ing fine steady stroke al thirty-six. Yale let
her stroke up again opposite the navy yard,
but Harvard easily held her .own. Harvard
made two miles In 10 :214 From here to the
finish the water was quite rou gh and the time
was slower. For three miles Harvard led by
ten lengths passing the flag in 1881. Yale's
time was ~ .49Jl. Both crews spurted at the
finish, but Harvard crossed the line fifteen
lengths ah sad, an easy winner. The official
time was, Harvard, 25 minutes 15lI seconds,
Yale, 26 minutes 30 seconds
The record OF the Yale-Harya d,now stands: +:
Harvard 8, Yale 4, while the Yale crew OF 1881
hold the best time record.

Burchard Wants to stay.

NEW YORK, June 24.--A Washington
special to the Eyening Post says Mr.. Bur
chard Director of the Mint, according to the
present information, has decided TO test the
power OF the President TO remove him from
Office There are two offices in the Treasury
which were created by special statutes, the
tenure Of which 1t Ia assumed, makes It impos-
sible for the President TO suspend the incum-
bents, unless the Senate shall consent. These
Offices are those OF Director Of the Mint and
Comptroller Of the Currency. The law under
which the Director Of the Mint receives his ap-
pointment is as follows:
He shall be appointed by the President, by,
and with the advice and assent Of the Senate,
and shall hold his office for term OF five years
unless sooner removed by the President upon
reasons to be communicated by him to the
Senate.
The friends OF the incumbent claim that 1t
is violation of the constitutional rights OF
the President to appoint successor to this
office. A request has been made for the re-
signation Of Mr.. Burchard, and he will un-
doubtedly refuse to resign. He is not in sym
pathy with some Of the financial views OF
Treasurer Jordan, and in some respects he ia
opposed to the sccretsry's policy. Mr.. Bur
chard, as far as can be learned, does not wish
a contest with the administration, but he In
tends to protect his own reputation, and has
decided not to retire in the face ,of charges
He has surrendered all the political function'
Of his office, and claims that he can support
! the financial policy Of the administration.

The first passenger train ran over the Meri-

and invited guests. The road opened for
regular business yesterday. Horace Wilcox

dent and the largest stakeholder of the road
Fred De Psystez, formerly of the Pennsyl
vania road, superintendent, and William
Pond general freight and ticket agent. The
road is about II miles long and connects
the manufacturing city of Meriden with
water carriage at Cromwell on the Come cti-
cut river where it owns good wharf facilities
and connects with passenger and freight
boats for New York. It has been built and
equipped with paid up stock and has no
bonded debt. The stock is mostly owned by
Meriden manufacturers. The road was built
as business enterprise, although undertaken
as relief from the high freight rates of the
Southern road, under which Meriden smart
were not the only thing complained
of. The independence of the company
in ignoring equality of rates and just claims
for overcharges and damages passed tolera-
ton. Arrangements have been made for
through freight to any part of the Union
while the facilities for shipping goods to and
from New York are ample The road was
constructed under contract by Mcclellan &
Co.. of Springfield. The engines were built
at the Rhode Island locomotive works and
the passenger and freight cars by the Wason
company of Springfield. Auditor George

ssMr James P Bristols DOWNFALL said a
gentleman yesterday, "is another warning to
many young men in New Haven who are in
the habit of spending more money than they
earn, and is also warning to young men
not to attempt to make money in policy
playing or other species of gambling" Mr..
Bristol was a young looking man of 80 and
was bookkeeper at the Office of Thomas AL
ling & Co., lumber merchants and sash and
blind manufacturers on Water street, and
was discovered short time ago by the firm
to be classifying accounts and pocketing the
money. He was taken to account by the firm
and given another chance to redeem himself,
the firm generously retaining him in their
employ and keeping his crime
q secret. Bristol, however. after working
few weeks skipped" last Thursday and is
missing, leaving a wife overwhelmed with
grief and sorrow and one child residing at
439 George street It is said that Bristol
had spent much money of late in policy play
ing. His method of embezzling from his
employees was to give false footings to the
pay roll. 1t was some time before the firm
discovered the discrepancies, as Bristol was a
trusted man and criminality was not sup
pected Bristol was formerly teller for eight
to ten years for the Union Trust Co. and af-
terward filed a vacancy in the First Nation
al bank, and from there went to the Allings'
Office. He began business life as Office boy in
the Palladium office. The pay roll at the
Allings' was about 81 900 week. Bristols
sad work causes much regret, as he has
large number of friends and was well known
in the city, and his father and other connec-
tions are all highly esteemed. He was
treasurer of Trinity church S. S. and col
lector of Davenport council, Royal Arcanun
The amount he robbed his employers of is
thought by them to be about $500.
