that the General has serious throat trouble

the bulletin following shows marked improve

altered for the worse, and then have gained to
such an extent that the doctors predics return

These conflicting reports make it impossible
to sum up the condition of the General. and
although the latest information says he has
been sitting upon the side of his bed with his
legs pendant he remains so weak that he can
do nothing more than this. He has not put
his feet TO the floor since his first attack, and
the time when he can do so seems now far dis

cradle quantity, both solid and liquid. and this
appears to be the most favorable point in the
game for life and death which the gallant Lit
tie Phil is now playing.
The latest bulletins say that he is gradually
improving, that his cough, notwithstanding
the unfavorable condition of the weather, is
much easier, and that he has been happy and
restful in mind, while his appetite and diges-
ton have been very satisfactory, with all the
other symptoms favorable.
II this state of affairs continue the prospects
of recovery seem good, but the doctors are very
wary about expressing an opinion. If the

Hon. Samuel J. Randall.

The Hon. Samuel J. Randall, Member Of
Congress from Pennsylvania, has been seri-
ously i'll for the past two weeks. and at one
time his life was despaired of. He had several
violent hemorrhages of the bowels, besides be-
ing afflicted with hemorrhoids. sensational
report in the New York papers, which said that
the distinguished Congressman was suffering
from cancer of the stomach, has been pro-
nounced untrue by both his family and init
mate friends. Notwithstanding the hot
weather, BIr. Randall has been steadily i'm
proving, and although unable to attend the ses-
sion of the House on Saturday last when the
Mills tariff bill was passed-to which measure
he has been a sturdy opponent-hes seems to be,
according to the reports of the physicians in
charge of his case, mending slowly but surely.
Mr.. Randall is one Of the braiuiest men in the
Democratic party, and his loss would be felt
by the entire Nation, as he is statesman of
wide views. 1t is hoped that his return to the
legislative halls Of the country will not be long
delayed.

You Garry

A whole medicine chest in your pocket,

operate directly on the stomach and

Emperor William and dignitaries of the En-

main absolutely unknown. The disposition
of official circles is toward disbelief that the
interviews have determined anything. The
immediate effect has been to lessen the strain
of the relations between the Berlin aud the st.
Petersburg foreign offices, but it is noteworthy
that while M. de GieFs and Count Herbert Bis

North German Gazette and other inspired or

spirit of aggression" Emperor Williams tour
