HANLAN BANOUETED.
He Declares that He Expects Teemer to
Give Him a Good Race.


TORONTO, ONT, June pa reception
and banquet was rendered to Edward
Hanlan, the ex-champjou oarsman of the
world, at Hotel Hanlan last night. About
100 citizens were present, among whom
were Lieut.. Gov. Robinson, Mayor Man
ming, and other prominent persons. In
replying TO the toast of the evening Han
Ian said that he had always rOwed honest
races, and accepted his defeat by Beach
as true Canadian sportsman. He in
tended to again visit New South Wales,
where he was always royalty treated,
and although he knew that Beach was
probably the finest specimen of an
Oarsman he had ever seen, he
also knew that his Australian friends
would back him again to row Beach for
any amount of money. Referring to
Courtney, he stated that while in the
United States last week he had replied to
a question as to whether he would row
Courtney. again that ''if Courtney would
put $4,000 in some national bank, lock the
door and build fence around the build
ing" he would row him, but not other
wise. In speaking Of the coming race
with Teemer, he said that he would row
to win. Teemer was a great Oarsman,
greater probably than some of them
thought, and he would have to row a good
race to beat him.

TORONTO's BIG STRIKE.
The Men Taking Measures Which Have
Never Before Been Resorted to.

The Men Taking Measures Which Have
Never Before Been Resorted to.
TORONTO, ONT, June 25.-Four or five
thousand men are now involved in the
builders laborers' strike. The brick
layers union met in Dufferin Hall last
night, and decided to call out every man
to-day who is being served by "scabs."
The men will not even accept material
from apprentices, and they are called out
of the sewers, where they are being
served by corporation lahorers and sewer
contractors labOrers. This has never
before been done here, and the strike is
hard on the municipal contractors and
the corporation employees. 1t is believed
that this action viii end the strike,
although the master builders may try to
supply men to ill the places of the brick
layers and stone masons.
FIGHTING OVER A UNION.
NEW ORLEANS, June 25.-Regarding
the strike of the printers and pressmen Of
the DnliV States Office the business mana
ger, Mr.. Smith, makes the following state
ment: Some time ago three of the five
men employed in the States press room
joined the pressmen's union, and then
appealed to the Union to have the pro-
prietors discharge the other two men, the
foreman and his assistant. The prOprle-
tors of the States declined to comply. The
union men were ordered out, and in sup
port Of the pressmen's union the typo
graphical union ordered the printers Of
the States to strike, which they did under
protest. The proprietors of the States re-
gard the action of the union as unjust,
and they have determined to empty only
nOn-union men. They now have a sufi-
Gent force to get their paper out, and eX-
pect to have full force by Saturday.

GRANTS CASE REVIEWED
THE PROGRESS OF THE DIS
EASE SLOW.

Increased Hardness in the Swelling
Under the Jaw-The Cancer Marching
Downward and Forward-The Ulcera-
tfon at the Base of the Tongue Deeper
and More Irregular - Less General
Strength.
Mt. MCGREGoR, n. Y, June 25.-Dr.
Shrady to-day telegraphed to the Medical
Record for its Saturday issue the follow
ing official bulletin of Gen. Grants con-
dition: The progress of the disease from
which Gen. Grant is suffering is, barring
accidental complications, slow. COmpar-
ing the condition OF the patient with what
it was a month ago, the changes which
have taken place can be appreciated.
Taking this period of time into considera-
ton, il can be said that the swelling under
the angle OF the lower jaw on the right
side has increased, and has become harder
and more deeply fixed.
GOING Downward AND FORWARD.
sit has shown a tendency to progress in
a direction downward and forward upon
the right side Of the neck, the infiltra-
ton extending into the neghbOrng CLAN
dular structures. Lancenating pains in
these parts, although fortunately not fre-
qUent nor severe, have a significance
which cannot be ignored. The Ill
ceratiOn on the right side of
the base of the tongue has become deeper
and more irregular, although its super
fetal area has not perceptibly increased.
This is the seat of pain occasionally in
swallowing and when certain eXamIna-
tiOns of the throat are made. The de-
structive process on the right side of the
uVuls is apparently quiescent, although
a new portion of the margin of the palatal
curtain is showing tendency to break
down.
THE LOSS OF HIS VOICE.
"The voice has been reduced to whis-
per, due partly to the inflammatory in
Movement of the vocal cords and partly
to the nervous atony of the latter. There
is some impairment of the general
strength and some loss in weight, al
though the appetite is unchanged and the
usual amount of nourishment Is taken.
The removal to Mt. McGregOr has so far
proved beneficial. II has enabled the pa
tient to recover lost ground, and thus in
a measure has c0unterbalanced the effects
of his local malady."
Gen. Grant spent nearly all of to-day on
the piazza. The doctors have endeavored
during the past week to build up his
strength. He now eats more than he did
two weeks ago, and Graves food instead
of forcing il upon himself as a medicine.
