WASHINGTON, D. c., January l6.-Secre-
tary Mccullough in communication to
the House to-day, recommended bill for
the relief of the whisky manufacturers. Mr.
Strongly recommends the immediate pas,
sage of bill as tending to relieve the pres
ent business depression. He 6,.ys' in his
letter of transmittal that the manufacture OF
whisky is one of the largest and most i'm
portant branches of domestic industry in
the United States, and is at the present
time like other manufacturing interests, sut-
fering from over production. A Legitimate
business from which large revenues are
derived it is not only depressed by
overproduction, but by being burdened with
heavy taxes, the payment of which, as is
the case with no other article, is required
within a fixed period whatever may be the
condition of the market. | recommend the
passage Of this bill as a matter Of simple
Justice to the manufacturers and holders of
whisky, which can hardly fail to be bene6-
cial to the general trade and consequently

therefore, TO make great Improvements At the

quarters of the executive officers will be

larger portion OF the grounds. A large num-
Der of stalls for horses and additional accom-

DUBLIN, July Ia.
GEN. GRANT.
A Quiet and Comfortable Day. Indica-
tiOns for n Quiet Night.

Mr.. MCGREGoR, July IA.
At 1890 Monday night, Gen. Grant was
sleeping, and during the night he secured
about eight hours of sleep. The patient
thought he woke earlier, Tuesday morning,
than he otherwise would have done because
of the rainfall that began IN the early morn
ing. The general is disposed to rheumatic
pains and it is not unlikely that the rain storm
has aroused them to some extent. The pa
tient took food through the night as usual
and in the morning his pulse was equally as
strong. full and regular as on Monday.
DIR. Shrady reports from the cottage this
afternoon that the general has been feeling
quite well and that his pulse, appetite and
general condition continue favorable. None
but the family will be permitted for the
present to see him.
DR.. Douglass this afternoon joined DR.
Shradv at the cottage, where the latter re-
ported quiet and comfortable afternoon.
~. Douglass and DR.. Shrady were present
when the patient retired this evening. and
he conditions were reported about the same
last evening. The indications are for a
uiet night.

THE MICHIGAN STRIKE.
All Quiet Along the River-TTOnble
Feared il the Mills Start.

EAST SAGINAW, July IA.
The strike is still on and no steps have
been taken at this end of the river looking
toward an adjustment. The strikers have
contented themselves with holding meetings
IN which speeches were made denouncing the
action of the authorities in bringing detec-
and advising the men to stand firm, and they
would succeed in the end. Meetings are
called for today also. 1t is difficult at this
moment to predict the outcome. Two or
mill owners have announced their determi-
nation to start their mills, and should they do
so. trouble may result.
Everything is apparently quiet here. Gov.
Alger has instructed the sheriff to disperse
all gatherings of strikers.
BAY CITY, July IA.
Governor Alger and members of his staff
Leans mill, which started up yesterday,
closed down this forenoon. The men de-
manded contract to run ten hours at full
pay the balance of the season, which was de-
cined and the mill stopped. There is no
unusual excitement in the city.
Today the strikers banked the fires in the
salt block of Pitts & Cranage and Miller &
Lewis and McGrow's all of which had started
up. Gov. Alger has ordered the militia
from Alpena, Fliet and Port Huron to re-
port for duty here and four companies from
Detroit and East Saginaw. Local orgapiza-
tons have also been called on. The situa-
ton looks serious, but the advent of the
military will probably overcome violence.
