Official Report of General Grants Con-
dition.
Mt. MCGREGoR, June 2Jth.-Dr. Shrady
to-day telegraphed to the Medical Record
| the following official report of General
Grants condition The progress of the dis
| ease from which General Grant is suffering
| is, barring accidental complications, slow.
| Comparing the condition of the patient
| with what it was month ago, the changes
which have taken place can be appreci-
| ated. Taking this period of time into con-
| sideration, it will be said that the swelling
| under the angle of the lower jaw on the
right side has increased, and become harder
| and more deeply fixed. 1t has shown a
| tendency to progress in a direction down.
ward and forward upon the right side of
the neck, the infltration extending into the
neighboring glandular structures. The
| lacerating pains in those parts, although,
| fortunately, not frequent nor severe, have
q significance which cannot be ignored.
| The liberation on the right side of the base
| of the tongue has become deeper and more
oil rial .
not perceptibly increased. This is the seat
of pain occasionally in swallowing, and
when certain examinations of the throat
are made. The destructive process on the
right side of the uvula is apparently qui-
| escent, although a new portion OF the mar
gin of the palatal curtain is showing a ten
dency to break down. The voice has been
reduced to whisper, due partly to intlam-
| matory involvement of the vocal cords.
There is some impairment of the general
strength and some loss of weight, although
the appetite is unchanged and the usual
amount of nOuriShment is taken. The re-
moval to Mt. McGregor has so far proved
beneficial. 1t has enabled the patient to
recover lost ground and thus, in measure,
has countcrbaanced the effects of his local
malady.

The Last Mexican Financial Coup dEtat.
CITY OF MEXICO via Galyeston), June
25th.-There was protracted meeting last
night of the Directors of the National
Bank of Mexico at which Senior Dublon
Minister of Finance, was present, and in
terrogated as to whether any arrangement
could be made with the Government
whereby the bank might be exempted from
the operations of the law decreed on Mon
day last. The Minister of Finance replied
that nothing could be done as the law had
been decided by the full Cabinet, presided
over by the President of the Republic. The
National Bank was badly embarrassed. and
it is predicted cannot survive the shock
The London Bank is quite unaffected by
the law There is talk that the National
Bank. the Central Railroad and the Ma
tional Railroad will join in common
protest to the Government, but not until
their attorneys meet can it be decided upon
what conditions this can be accomplished.
The National Banks capital is largely held
in France, where it is backed by the Franco
Egyptian Bank, and to day rumOrs have
been current that the French Government
might make a diplomatic protest in behalf
of the bank. The question also has been
raised regarding the attitude of the United
States Government should the American
railroads be seriously embarrassed. Minis
ter Jackson is in Toluca, where his wife is
i'll, and could not be interviewed by inter-
csted Americans. Large German mercan
tile houses here have bought up Custom
house certificates at q discount, and the
point has been raised in German circles
that Germany is likely to make dipio-
matte inquiry why these certificates have
been discredited. Regarding the question
of possible interference by the United
States Government, it is said in legal cir
cles here that American railroads are Mex
lean corporations, under the terms of their
respective concessions, and cannot appeal
to Washington. 1t is reported that the
Government will, in few days, publish a
new scheme for the adjustment of the
English debt, and it is expected favorable
result will follow. On the London market
the immediate effect of the financial coup
d etat must be beneficial. The Government
will have more ready money to COM
mand now that thirty-seven per cent. of
the revenues has been released from the
burden of subsidies. A few weeks ago the
Government bad but little money and
could not pay its employees, and business
here was greatly depressed. The merchants
now look for an improved trade and are
likely to order more extensively.
Another Miuing Boom.
OMAHA, June 25th.-The new gold dis
covery on Snake river, Oregon, is believed
to be genuine. kilograms follow each
other fast into the Union Pacific head
quarters, augmenting the wonder and I'M
portance of the new find. Doubts are
many and expressions free that it is an
other CGur d Alene boom, but the railway
officials said to-day that such fictitious ex-
periments are never raised in midsummer
when they so soon can be exploded. The
new fields are in Union county, Oregon,
among the Eagle creek mountains, in the
peninsula formed by the junction of Pow
der and Snake rivers. The nearest point
on the railway is at Durkee or Baker City,
thirty miles. A wagon road runs within
eight miles of the scene. The new camp
is known as Pine valley. Over two hun
dred mines have been located, and parties
are pouring in at the rate of fifty day.
The mining consists of placer and quartz.
The placer mining is panning out from
fifteen to twenty-five cents. Rock which
one man could pound out in a mortar in
one day has yielded as high as $780, Old
prospectors pronounce it a great discovery.
