Sensational Stories Denied by President

New YoRE, July IA telegram from
Baltimore last night stated that Presi-
dent Spencer, Of the Baltimore & Ohio
road, had come to New York on railroad
business and would wait the arrival here
of Robert Garrett, whose iather.in-law,
Mr.. Frick, had gone to Europe to bring
him home, as his mental condition had
become much worse.
President Spencer, when interviewed
on the subject, said that he did not ex-
pect to meet Mr., Garrett and, 30 far as
he knew, that gentleman was not ex-
peCtcd home at an early date. Mr..
Spencer also said he was positively as.
sured that Mr.. Garrett's health was very
much improved.
W. L. Montague, Of Baltimore, an in
innate friend OF the Garrett family, as-
sured a reporter that instead Of Mr.. Gar
rett having suffered relapse, he had
entirely recovered. He said that Col.
Latrobe, OF Baltimore, who left Mr..
Garrett in London ten days ago, had as
sured him that he was then perfectly
well and as healthy as any man in Lon.

received from Mr.. Garrett last Sunday,

Another friend OF Mr.. Garrett said
that after the latter had received news
of his brothers death he cabled that he
would come as soon as possible. 1t had
previous TO this been his intention TO do
some shooting in Ireland and Scotland
and return in time for the pheasant
shooting on his Maryland preserve in
the fall, but from his cable dispatch 1t
was inferred that no had given up the
shooting and would be home in a few

4 REUNITED COUNTRY.
Mr.. Curtis reviewed elOQuently and at
great length the results OF the war,
dwelling upon the condition OF the New
South, and contrasting it with her con-
dition before the war. He argued for a
pure ballot, plead for complete wiping
utof all sectional feeling, and congratu-
lated the country upon the suspicious
signs OF the times-that soon the reunion
Of the blue and the gray would be as
complete in the country at large us to-
day on the field Of Gettysburg. He con-
cIuded rs follows:
"Fcllow citizens, SO far rs lies in US,
shall not such be the spirit Of our politi-
cal contentious? Can we wrest from the
angel OF this hour any blessing so price
less as the common resolution that we
shall not have come to this consecrated
spot only 10 declare our Joy and graft.
tudc, not onl y to cherish proud and
tender memories, but also to pledge our
selves to Union in its sublimest signi-
ticance? Here at last is its sacred secret
revealed. 1t lies in the patriotic instinct
which has brought to this field the
army of Northern Virginia and the
army OF the Potomac. 1t lies in the
manly emotion in which the generous
soldier sees only the sincerity and the
courage OF his ancient foe, and scOrns
suspicion OF lingering cnmity. 1t lies
in the perfect freedom OF speech and
perfect fraternity OF spirit which now
for three days have glowed in these
hearts and echoed in this enchanted air.
These are the forces that assure the fll'
turC OF our beloved country. May they
SO before It's en- our mighty march, pill
lar OF cloud by day, OF fire by night.
Happy for us, happy for mankind, il we

hcnd that they are the funda.
mental conditions OF the life OF
the republic. Then, long hereafter,
when in n country whose vast popula'
ton covering the continent with glory
of civilization which the Imagination
cannot forecast, the completed century
OF the great battle shall be celebrated
the generation which shall gather here
in our places will rise up and call us
blessed. Then, indeed, the leeting
angel Of this hour will have yielded his
most precious bencdiction; and in the
field OF Gettysburg, as we now behold
it, the blue and the gray blending in
happy harmony, like the mingling hues
Of the summer landscape, we may sec
the radiant symbol Of the triumphant
America of our pride, our hope and our

hope, OF patriotic enthusiasm, and OF
stern resolve, swept for Il moment over
thousands Of brave hearts, and the next
instant the overwhelming storm OF bat
tie burst. For three long, proud, i'm
mortal days it raged and swayed, DRIFT
ing from Seminary Hill far round to
Woifs Hill and Cufps Hill, then sweep
ing back, with desperate fury strik-
ing the Peach Orchard and dash
ing with flash and roar upon Little
Round Top and Round Top. raging in
DEVILS Den, the earth trembling, the air
quiyering, the sky obscured; with
shouting charge, and rattling volley, and
laundering cannonade piling thegrOund
with mangled and bleeding blue and
gray, the old, the young, but always and
everywhere the devoted and the brave:
1t was the supreme moment OF the peril
OF the Union. II was the heroic crisis
of the war. But the fiery force was
spent. In one last, wild, tumultuous
struggle brave men dashed headlong
against, men as brave, and the next mo-
ment that awful bolt OF daring courage
was melted in the fervent heat OF an
equal valor, and the battle OF Gettys-
burg was fought.
III the rising sun of the 4th of July,
1868, looked upon sad and unwonted
scene, desolated battle field, upon
which the cOmbatants on either side had
been American citizens, yet those com.
batants could they have seen Alright
would have hailed that day as more
glorious than ever before. For as the
children OF Israel beheld Moses de-
scending amid the clouds and thunder
OF the sacred mount bearing the divinely
Illuminated law, so from that smoking
and blood-drenched field on which all
hope OF future Union might seem to
have perished utterly, they would have
seen more perfect Union rising, with
the Constitution at last immutably in
tGrpretcd, and they would have heard,
before they were uttered by human
lips, the words OF which Gettysburg is
the immortal pledget to mankind, the gov
eminent OF the people, by the people,
for the people, shall not perish from the
earth"
