Ex-President Arthur.
New YORK, June Sth.-There has been a
| turn in the condition of ex-President Ar
thur. The steady improvement that is said
to have been going on for the last month
has stopped, and tits said on good authority
that he has taken considerable steps back
wards, and that there are grave
doubts as to his ever getting well.
The nature of his disease gives
rise to many conflicting symptoms. In
similar cases, where the patient has
appeared on the road to recovery, there has
suddenly appeared dangerous and per-
haps fatal relapse. While is not true that
| relapse has come in the Generals case,
ho hos LOFT H.,
vital force has been greatly lessened by a
return of the attacks of insomnia.

| JAMESTOWN On. ", June Sth.-General
| Secretary Frederick Turner and Director J.
w. Hayes, of the Knights of Labor, were
| in this city yesterday, adjusting the strike
of the shoe -bottomers. They departed for
Philadelphia last evening. Turner said
there would probably be no more strikes,
as by the recent Convention held in Cleve-
| land the power of ordering strikes and
boycotts was taken out of the hands of the
District Assemblies and given to the Gen.
eral Board. and as this Board is entirely in
sympathy with Powderly's ideas. it is
hoped that these disastrous occurrences are
done away with for all time to come.
Turner said all the talk in the metropolitan
newspapers in regard to the Convention be-
ing inharmonious was mere fabrication.
