What They Say of Their Treatment In
Maine.
Rochester Post-Exnress.1

lhocneSIer IOSVENpreSS.
The Rochester Grand Army men have re-
turned from the National Encampment at
Portland, Me. They have nothing but praise
to bestow upon their hosts in Mr. Blaine's
State, and are much grieved that aught to
the effect that they received anything but
the best treatment should have been said by
any one.
why, bless you," said one of the soldier
boys to a Post-Express reporter this morn
ing, I've attended many gathering of this
kind and I've been guest at most of the
prominent hotels the country over. and
never was used better in all my life. All the
boys feel the same way too. stopped at the
Falmouth, one of the best hotels there, and
everybody about the house seemed to vie
with everybody else in doing all ne could to
make the stay OF the veterans as pleasant as
possible. When the grand parade took place
everybody took pains to see to it that the
way was made pleasant one. Lemonade
ana other cooling drinks were prepared for
the old soldiers and puere- dealt out in Sltau1a
titles. There was not so many decorations
on the stores and business places as there
would have been here, but the private houses
were far more generally decorated than eve
has been the case in Rochester.
"Then when it was all over they took us
on an excursion to Mt. Desert Island they
got up a clam-bake for our benefit, and eV-
erything that could be thought of was done
to make our memory of the encampment Of
1885 pleasant one. We couldn't spend any
money II we wanted to; our badges were our
tickets to everything.
Another thing | want to speak of. There
was no undue prying about to see what we
were eating or drinking. Nobody took any
note of our personal conduct. There was a
noticeable absence of what l understand
was telegraphed abroad as existing-a feel
ing that we were lot of disorderly men who
would bear watching. must repeat tive

This feeling is found to be general among
the G A. X. boys who have returned.

GEN. GRANT.

MT. MCGREGoR, N. Y, July I'm an in
terview today, ex-senator Chaffee said that
in pencil and paper talk with Gen. Grant,the
sick chieftain stated exactly his feelings and
conditions. Up to short time ago he had
clung tenaeiously to the ray of hope that
possibly cure might be expected, but as
time progressed depressed feeling. super
induced by increasing exhaustion, has led
him to abandon all such thoughts. He now
awaits the end calmly and coolIy. No one
added that, considering his present feeble
and debilitated condition, he would almost
hail with pleasure the close of life's chapter
Gen. Grant took food three times last
night, but at about O'Clock this morning he
wrote ON his pad to DR.. Douglass that his
food was growing distasteful. The physi-
clan appeared interested, and the sick man
hastened to explain that the food was not
less palatable, but that he believed he was
taking more nourishment than he could as
simulate. The nurse was thereupon instruct
ed to decrease the quantity given. In order
to subdue or allay the Generals pain so that
he may be comfortable, it seems necessary
that personal attendance should be given
about once in three hours. Today marks
the third week of the patients life ON the
mountain, and it is undoubtedly true that
without almost constant attendance the
pains of the disease would have more than
mastered any Improvement that has resulted
from the change and that as time progresses

the palliative measures employed on the
painful parts are less quickly effective now
than three weeks ago. Cocaine does not so
rapidly deaden the pain in the throat, and
there is now little doubt that if not the con-
current cause cocaine has increased the pa
ralysis of the parts to the inaction of which
the loss of voice is due Though the secre-
tions are now thinner, the causes of exhaus-
tion are progressing. Still there are days
when the contrary seems true. An instance
occurred this morning, when the General,
after night of quiet rest, wrote DR.. Doug
lass these words: 81 can feel my strength
increasing, and the drain upon me is dimin-
ishing."
When DR.. Douglass went to the cottage,
between and 9 tonight, to prepare the Gen
eral for bed, the latter wrote: 81 have had
an easy day indeed. For the last half hour
my mouth has felt very free from mucous"
DR.. Douglass, at 10 o'clock, said he conld see
should not be as comfortable as the last and
previous nights.

rumsellers at Togus who possessed United

liquor on the grounds of the National

a perfect right to do so on land under the
jurisdiction of the general government
Judge Andrews of the Augusta Municipal
Court decided that his court had no author
ity in the matter. Yesterday, however,
United States Commissioner Choate made
warrant against John Carson for selling
liquor on the national grounds at Togus
under Section 5391, Revised Statutes of the
United States, which says in substance that
any offence committed in any place ceded to
the United States which offense is not pro-
hibited or punishment thereof is not spec
tally provided for by the United States, such
offence shall be liable to and receive the
same punishment as the laws of the State
in which such place is situated and now in
force have provided for a like offense when
committed within the jurisdiction of such
State. This, as nearly as can be learned, is
the first time case has ever come up under
this section in the United States. Carson's
case was continued. 1t is stated that
strict enforcement of the prohibitory law on
the grounds of the Home, as permitted by
the above section, will stop the sale of lager
beer there, which is and has been freely al
lowed.
