GENERAL GRANT.
He Has Not Made Any Gain of Strength-A
Call from Gen. S. B. Buckner.

MT. McGREGoR, July 10.-Soon after IL
o'clock last night General Grant was asleep. At
3 o'clock this morning rain fell in torrents, with
thunder and lightning The General slept
through the storm until o'clock, when Dr.
Douglas awakened him to give food and treat
ment.
"It has been raining very heavily" remarked
the physician to the General, as the latter was
taking nourishment The patient glanced up in
some surprise, but upon again being assured Of
the fact, he wrote to the Doctor 'You must
have been dreaming; I heard no rain, and have
been here all the time" DR.. Douglas enjoyed
thoroughly the humor of the sally. From 4
o'clock until nearly 8 o'clock this morning the
sick man slept, and the morning was passed by
him in his room. The physician says the pulse
is of a fair volume at so, but not so good rs it
had been up to three days ago. The Doctor be-
lieves his patient has not recovered the strength
lost on Wednesday.
The statements made in Boston and Chicago
papers that Mrs. Grant was sharing with Mark
Twain ir the proceeds of the sale of bust of
General Grant has panied the Generals family.
They are, however, fatty contradicted by Kane
Gerhardt, the sculptor, who this morning was a
caller at the Grant cottage.
Colonel Grant yesterday received telegram
from the ex-Confederate General S. B. Buokner
asking if in the event of his visiting Mt. Nc
Gregor, he would be permitted to see General
Grant. Colonel Grant last evening replied with
regrets, that his father was not strong enough
to see him. This morning, however, another
message was sent General Buckner, informing
him that, should he come this morning General
Grant would see him. Accordingly, at 10:40.
General Buckner and his wife alighed at the little
station on the top of the mountain. They
were met at the station by L. S. Grant, jr. who
conducted General Buckner to the Grant cot
tage Colonel Grant and his wife and Mrs.
Sartoris were absent, attending a reunion at
Round lake. When General Buckner had
greeted Mrs. Grant and others on the cottage
veranGa, he was conducted to the Generals
room, where the sick man was awaiting his
visitor. Generals Grant and Buckner were
fellow cadets at West Point, and when Fort
Donelson fell General Buckner the first
confederate general captured by General Grant
The meeting was affecting, and the interview
lasted an hour General Grant afterwards
showed considerable fatigue as the result of the
interview, but aside from that his condition is
not changed from this morning.
AS the afternoon wore on, after General Buck
ner's departure, the pleasure felt by General
Grant at having met his old acquaintance
seemed to have balanced any tendency to de-
preston which might have resulted. He retired
at o'clock, with prospects for a good night,
and at midnight the house was quiet and dark

How Government Employment Makes Men
Unfit for Other Duties.

Onllb IOF Otner
Special f. the indianapolis Journal.
WAsHINGToN, July 10-Some comment has
been created throughout the country upon the
statement made recently by discharged en-
ploye Of the Treasury Department, that he did
not know how to earn his living and he there
fore asked to be put back into the government
service This has been made the basis of some
very highly wrought editorials in the Demo
cratic press in which an attempt has been made
to show that the Republican office holders, as
rule are unable to earn their living in any other
manner than in the government service, and
that if they were turned out they would become
paupers. There is, doubt, great
deal of truth in the assertion that
this man made, namely, that he
did not know how to earn his living outside the
government service; and it is not strange that it
should be 80. There arc hundreds of men in the
employ of the government who came here ten,
fifteen, or twenty years ago, bright and fresh
from college, who were sharp, energetic young

Lumber Mills Closed by Strikers.

EAST SAGINAW, Mich, July 10-The advance
guard of the striking mill employees, $50 strong,
arrived here this morning at IL O'clock and
paraded the streets, escorted by 200 steyedores
and a band. The men are very orderly. All of
the mills here are running this morning, but will
shut down az soon as their employees intimate a
desire to quit. The Tittawabawsee Boom Com
papy will be forced, in any event, to shut down
tomorrow, as the mills at the lower end of the
river are stopped and those here will probably
close. The company will be unable to take care
of the logs. This will throw 800 boom employees
out of work. At 1:30 o'clock this afternoon a
procession of 1000 strikers, escorted by two
bands of music, marched through the streets,
crossed the river and have commenced shutting
down the mills on the west side No acts of
violence are thus far reported The great ma
jority of the mill employees at this end of the
river are opposed to the strike, and would con
tinue work if let alone.
The mayors of Saginaw City, and East Sag
inaw and the sheriff of the county, have issued
an order closing all the saloons and cautioning
the strikers against acts of violence.
All mills south and north of the city limits
were visited by the strikers this afternoon and
forced to shut down. At Barnard's mill the
foreman was knocked down and roughly handled,
but the authorities did not interfere, and no
arrests were made. No other cases Of violence
were reported. Three or four mills not reached
will be visited in the morning The manufacts
urers say they will remain shut down six weeks
rather than accede to the demands of the
strikers.

onaoer Barrett,s SLAYER Sent to an ASYLUM.

CHICAGO July 10--Louis A. Reaume, the
man who shot and killed Officer Con Barrett in
the Polk street depot, May 81, was to day ad-
judged insane. in Judge Prendergast's court
The court ordered that Reaume should be CON
fined in the Elgin asylum. Reaume's brother
and wife attended him in court. He was tall and
gaunt, but there was none of the ferceness in
his manner that he exhibited on the day of the
shooting. Dr. Bluthardt testified that Reaume
was insane and imagined he was in bodily dan
ger. His health is almost restored, but there
are two bullets still in his body. Reaume said
his grandmother was insane and his mother was
subject to epileptic fits

AT WASHINGTON,
The President Requests General Sheridan to
Proceed to the Scene of Disturbance.

WASHINGTON, July l0.-The President this
afternoon addressed the following letter to Gen.
Sheridan:
"WAsHINGToN, July 10.
lieutenant general Phil III. Sheridan:
''Sir-In view of the possible disturbances that
may occur among the Indians now in the Indian
Territory, and the contemplated concentration
of troops in that locality, | deem it desirable
that you proceed at once to the location where
trouble is to be apprehended, and advise with
and direct those in command as to the steps to
be taken to prevent disorder. Your acquaintance
with the history and the habits and customs of
these Indians leads me also to request that you
investigate statements on their part as to any
real or fancied injury injustice toward
them or any other causes that may have led to
this discomfort, and TO inform yourself generally
as to their condition. You are justified in as
suring them that any cause of complaint will be
fully examined by the authorizes here, and, if
wrongs exist they shall be remedied.
II think / hardly need add that they must be
fully assured of the determination on the part
of the government to enforce their peaceful con
duct and to prevent and punish acts of lawless-
ness, and any outrage upon our settlers.
Yours truly, GROVER CLEVELAND"

CLEVELAND, o., July 10-Advces from the
Fourteenth aid Eighteenth wards, received at II
o'clock to-day, show that everything is quiet in
those localities, and it is supposed no further
public parades will be attempted, though meet

3 o'clock in the peach orchard. What the out

trouble will ensue Payday is next week,
Wednesday, when an outbreak is feared. The
disposal of the police force and military organi-
cations remains the same as yesterday, though
the busses have been removed from the central
station. There is general feeling that all i'm
mediate danger is over.
The entire police force, except the specials
sworn in for extra duty, have gone to the Eight
eenth ward. The city authorities have learned
that there is to be parade of strikers in that
vicinity this afternoon, and to prevent any
further destruction of property have deemed it
best to mass the police in that quarter.
No meetings of the strikers were held to day.

held IN the Eighteen ward. Immediately ITO
policemen were driven to the station in that
precinct. They went prepared to arrest every
