GRANT GROWING WEAKER And Keeping His Room Almost
 Whole Time.

MT. MCGREGoR, July 7.-Since General Grant has kept to his room almost contin- uously he sent a few inquiries to the office regarding the work on the proofs of his book, but attempted nothing himself. At 80 o'clock he reused sufficiently to be dressed, but afterward returned to his chairs, not leaving them again. His disposition has been to be left to himself for rest and quiet He dozed off several times during the after noon. There was no especial pain and the evening passed away smoothly. There was no outward change in his condition, but the doctor said he was growing weaker. Gene ra1 Grant told Dr. Douglass tonight that he had passed easy day. The rain of the afternoon did not affsct him. He was ready to retire shortly after 8 o'clock.

The Democrats And Greenbackers
 Pool Their Issues.
 DEsMoINEs Iowa, July 7.-The Green back State convention to-day adopted the plan of fusion agreed upon by the Democratic and Greenback State committees sometime ago the Democrats to nominate candidate for Governor and judge of the Supreme court and the Greenbackers candidates for ieuten- ant governor and superintendent of public instruction. There was but little opposition and General Warner, who favored fusion, had an easy victory over Weller, who opposed it. E. H. Gillette, formerly member of Congress from this district, was nominated for lieutenant governor and F. w. Moore, of Davis county, for superinten- dent of public instruction. There is no doubt that the Democratic convention will approve this action. The platform adopted declares loudly for the introduction of the anti-monopoly sentiment in legislation and denounces the Governor for turning State Auditor Brown out of office by the of baVOnAtS

Two Saints Under Arrest For PO-
 1ygamy.
 SALT LAKE, July 1.-Two arrests for un- lawful cohabitation were made to-day, Rob ert Swain and Robert Morris. Swain's po- lygamous wives gave evidence freely, saying they were his wives and that he was the father of their children. This frankness is something of departure in such prosecu- tions Morris waived examination. Both defendants were placed under bonds to await the action of the grand jury.
 The common council of this city to-day disclaimed any intention on the part of the municipal government to show disrespect to the flag in half-masting it on July 4, but exonerated the marshal, ex :, plaining that while his action might have been impolitic, it was justified in view of the fact that many Mormsns are suffering i'm prisonment by reason of the wicked applica- ton of unconstitutional law. It was gene rally thought the marshal would be asked to resign and the action of the council in white washing him causes much disgust.

The Trouble with the Cheyennes.

WASHINGTON, July 7.---Secretary 2. Endicott to-day submitted to the Cabinet the reports which have been received respecting the troubles with the Cheyenne Indians. He says that one regiment is already on it's way to check this revolt; that other troops are available for the purpose, and that no fur ther action is needed at this time. The Sec retary expresses the opinion, however, that in the event of general outbreak by these Indians the military forces will prove inad- equate.
 Indian Inspector Armstrong telegraphed to Secretary Lamar that some Cheyenne In- dians had broken away from the reservation and are now in the Pan Handle, north of Texas The Cheyennes are regarded the most dangerous Indians in the Indian terri tory The despatch was taken to the execu- tive mansion and it is understood that the matter is being discussed at to-day's cabinet session.

mons this evening MT. Gladstone said that he and the other members of the late govern ment would heartily support the Afghan policy of the present cabinet. Nothing, he said, should be neglected which would so strengthen and perfect the defenses of India as to render that part of the British empire unassailable. The claim of the Tories tha they should have time to consider the situa- tion of affairs in Egypt he thought just and he had none but the best wishes for the suc- cess of the government in carrying out its policy for the restoration and perpetuation of order in the Soudan. Sir Wilifred Law sons motion to refuse to grant the govern ment the command of the time of the house was rejected by vote of 151 to 2.

Stranded Por Five Hours With a Party
 of EXcursfo nists.

NEW YORK, July 7-The excursion steam CT Columbia left Brooklyn about 3 o'clock to day with three hundred and fifty passen- gers for Rockaway Beach. Of the Narrows she encountered dense fog and after pro- ceeding cautiously for time by the aid of the bell buoys she suddenly struck heavily on the north bar, a mile and a half from Rockaway Beach, dangerous obstruction which the pilot had tried in vain to avoid. The shock frightened the passengers, but upon being assured by the captain that there was no immediate danger they concluded to make the best of the situation and the young folks began to dan ce to the music of the steamers band A rowboat was sent for assistance. It got lost, but finally met fisherman who piloted it to Canarsie where a tugboat was obtained, which went out and took off the Columbia's s passengers after they had been stranded five hours. They came back to the city by train from Canarsie much disgusted with their days trip. At last accounts the Columbia was still fast on the bar.

NEW YORK, July 7.--An agent of St, Johns Guild, leading charitable organiza- ton of this city, said to-day: "London is not alone in the phase of crime revealed by the Pail Mall Gazette. Our shop girls, cigarette makers and sewing girls are all more or less subjected to dangerous influences. I have repeatedly known it to occur that young girls, on applying to large establishments for work, have been asked if they have gen tlemen friends and have been told in no very elegant language that the pay for the work will not support them and enable them to dress properly. The long hours and severity of labor among shop girls together with starvation pay constitute awful condition under which many girls succumb to tempta- tion. Proprietors of employment bureaus have frequently been found acting pro curers. The evil lately assumed such propor- tions that great caution is now exercised in granting licenses to keep such bureaus"
