left the patient, q few hours before. There was
no indication, after the General had gone to bed,
and before DR.. Douglas had started for home,
that there would be any change for the worse
within short period. At A. NJ, when we saw
the General, he was much distressed. While
he was doing there had been an accu-
mutation of phlegm in the rear of the nasal
passage, and he was awakened by sense or
suffocation and difficulty in breathing. The pa
tient became apprehensive at the sudden devel-
opment of new symptoms that were attended
with the prospect of serious results, and wanted
An explanation of the trouble. He consequently
desired the presence of his physicians and we
were sent for. We Immediately made an exam
ination OF his throat, and found the palate con-
siderably swollen, and the throat infiamed and
congested more than usual. The anodyne he
took before going to bed was given in divided
doses, but in consequence of the existence of the
irritating substance in the throat as well as the
distress caused by the Inflammation, the ano-
dyne failed to have its proper effect, and he was
unable to sleep The patient got up from his
bed when he felt distressing sensations
upon awakening, and sat in an easy chair. Later
the General had four hours of sleep. One ply
sician was present with him all the time during
his sleep, and strict watch was kept of him every
moment, but there was an entire absence of any
thing to occasion any further treatment. The
Generals family remained up all night long, and
it was night of suspense to them. They were
much relieved, however, when the spasmodic at
tack had been subdued and they were assured
that there was no occasion for fear OF any return
of the bad symptoms. When the General awoke
at Z A NJ. he partook of a small amount of
liquid food. which he was able to swallow
without distress During the twelve hours
after A. NJ the patient had between
seven and eight hours sleep. 1t was,
of course artificial sleep. induced by anodynes
At 9:45 p NJ, the General requested that dis
patch be sent to DR.. Douglas, asking him to
come and see him The patient was not alarmed,
but wanted to have his physicians near him. He
was not in critical condition, and there was
nothing to warrant the message, but he simply
requested that they be sent for. DR.. Douglas
remains with the general all night, in accord
ance with the patients wish Before the Gen
eral went to bed his throat was treated with an
anodyne The prospects were at the last ac
count that the General would have good nights
rest. His condition was much improved. Har
rison, the Generals servant, told member of
the household in the afternoon that when the
General struggled out of bed he said to him in
manner of-fact way: Il can't stand this Harri-
son; am going to die"

Controversy Between Methodist Ministers
and the Mayor of Philadelphia.

) PHILADELPHIA, March 30-At the Methodist
preachers meeting, today, resolution was
adopted condemning prize fights and prize
fighters in general The resolution also called
attention to the coming match between Sullivan
and McCaffrey, and a committee was appointed
to present the resolution to the mayor, and urge
him to do all in his power to stop the fight. The
committee called upon the mayor, who said
Gentlemen. there is no law which would pro-
vent this match from coming off. These men
will merely spar for scientific points, and can
assure you it will be no slugging match 1t is
an open question, just now. as to what we should
do. am now writing to the city solicitor to OBJ
tain his views on this subject"
You know what sparring is, Mr.. Mayorl'
said Rev. Mr.. Finley, ''and this fight will be
moth ug but outand out slugging- match, as
you call it."
''You are mistaken, SIR responded the mayor;
, ''they will spar for points When they came
here the only stipulation we made with them
was that it should not be a prize-fgh They
assured US that it would be for points, and l
have no idea that it will be anything like slug
ging match"
''Were not these same men run out of New
York because of their brutal exhibitions, !"
queried Mr. Finley.
There reason for that" answered the
mayor. II was talking with an official over there
the other day, and he told me there was no neces-
sity for such action. These people will merely
come together and spar before crowd and the
man who scores the most points will be declared
the victor. You will find these matches held in
every gymnasium and some theaters in the city
As the law is at present don't think have
power to stop this exhibition"
you know, Mr.. Mayor. that this is intended
to be q pugiistc exhibition, and yet you call it
a sparring match. 1t is to be a contest for
money. Two men will get up and fight like
bloodhounds, pounding each other brutally, and
yet you say you have no power to stop it."
Gentlemen, if | attempted to please every
body in this municipality, l would succeed in
pleasing none at all, and most certainly not my
self. l assure you, however: that j will do
everything can to preserve the public peace"

He informed the servant that he was Rev.
Dr. Jackson, Methodist preacher of
Lynn Mass, and that he desired to
see General Grant but was refused
admittance. To a World reporter he said that
he had come all the way from Lynn expressly to
see Gen. Grant and was greatly disappointed
because he had not been permitted to see his old
friend. A member of the Grant household, In
conversation with World reporter, said: Gen.
Grant never doubted that he was dying; he
knows the progress of the disease, as we'll as the
physicians, and he awaits the final summons
with the stolidity for which he is noted Perhaps
his only regret is that he cannot be allowed
time in order to satisfy himself about his book.
He expects to die, and has no fear. He thinks
that after his death he will be better appre-
ciated, and that he will be better understood by
some future generation than by this.
THE universal feeling of sorrow that Gen.
Grant should be passing away is seen in the nu
merous condolatory kilograms received every day.
