GENERAL SHERIDAN.
AN IMPROVEMENT YESTERDAY.

AN vi n.y. A"'
WASHINGTON, June 6.-The follow.
ing bulletin was issued this evening:
$50 p. NJ. General Sheridan has
spent a quiet and restful afternoon.
His pulse and respiration have con.
tinued as before. His mind is per
fectly clear. Up to this time no I'M
favorable symptoms have developed.
II. M. O'REILLY,
WASHINGTON MATTHEWS.
HENRY b. YARRow.
AT IL o'clock this evening the lights
in the sick room were burning low and
it was said that the General was doing.
Not since the first attack has there been
such unmlstakable evidences Of sanguine
hope shown both Icy the members OF
the family and friends as this evening.
Mrs. Sheridan left the house about
o'clock for the first time in nearly two
weeks and took a half hours drive
about the neighborhood, using, to avoid
attracting attention. the public cab
which Is kept constantly in waiting.
General Sheridan's family and
friends are hopeful tonight and highly
encouraged by the improvement shown
in the Generals condition. His friends
think that he is on the road to recov'
cry, unless another alarming attack
should occur. The hemorrhages art
now believed to be the principal source
of danger, as they would be likely to
cause another attack of heart failure.
He is very weak, but it is said that II
the present improvement continues fol
forty eight hours he will be strong
enough to resist quite a severe shock.
While this is the feeling tonight, there
still prevails the constant apprehension
Of another recurrence of heart trouble,
and this, it is stated by the physicians
is always to be feared even should the
General get out of doors again. The
heart and liver are incurably disabled
but 1t is said to be possible for the sich
man, by a strict diet and close atten-
ton to his health, and an avoidance OF
excitement, to live for years with these
organs affected. Any imprudence,
however, will Immediately render hun
liable to a recurrence to these attacks.
Doctor Lincoln called on the sick
man to-day, at the request OF Doctor
O'Reilly, and will call again. He made
a careful examination of the patient.
and said this evening that he found the
General very much better Ill every wa,
than when he called before, and il
nothing alarming occurred he nigh,
get out again. The Generals respira-
ton, Doctor Lincoln said, was very
much better, showing that the lungs
were less congested. When he had
called before the lungs were
exceedingly congested, and it seemed
almost impossible for him to
live. Since that time Doctor
O'Reilly informed him there had been
a steady improvement until the hem
orrhage occurred. The hemorrhages.
while they had nearly caused death,
had helped to clear up the lungs, and
since then there had been a constant
Improvement. The kidneys, the Doctor
said, were acting very favorably, and
the Generals strength seemed to have
kept up well. DIR. Lincoln further said
that the chances of the patients re-
covery were now very greatly im-
proved. but, he added, there is, Of
course, Olways to be apprehended a re.
currence Of the heart troubles.

A POWERFUL EXPLOSIVE.
FAR MORE EFFECTIVE THAN DYNA-
MITE AND NOT DANGEROUS
To Handle-It Can Not Be Exploded in
the open Air and VIII Not Even Burn
Unless Inolosed and Tightly Packed.

NEw BRITAIN, Conn, Oct. 3l.-Rudolph
Ericsson, young Swede, is employed in
drug store in this city. Before he came TO
America no worked with his uncle in
gunpowder factory in the old country, and
together they experimental to find new
explosive that would be as powerful as
dynamite, but less dangerous 10 handle.
A few months ago young Ericsson re-
ceiyed letter from his uncle in which the
latter stated that his experiments had at
last been successful. lie incloscd the for
mula Of the new explosive aud Rudolph
got it patented under the name Of "oxiral-
tie" The new explosive looks like moist
cornmeal IL can be made rs easily rs
cornmeal can be cooked, and in much the
same way. Last week Mr.. Ericsson
made quantity Of il in stove in Cur
rams drug store and then experimental
with IL before some persons whom he IL
trying TO interest in its manufacture. A
mass Of rock ut shuttle Meadow mountain
was selected rs the scene Of the expert
mcnts. The first trials were TO prove that
the mixture could not be exploded in the
open air. A small fire was started and two
pounds OF oXtralite were put in il. The
stuff would neither explode nor burn. 1t
was then thoroughly mixed with kerosene
oil, when about half Of it burned but did
not explode. A small dynamite cartridge
WAS inserted in roll OF the stuff. The
cartridge exploded with fuse, but theex-
tralitc did not explode. When some Of
the substance was placed on n flat stone
and struck with hammer, the only re-
suit was TO reduce II to finer powder. A
hole two feet ccep was drilled in the hard
est rock to be- found in ncighboring
quarry. Three rolls Of the explosive, each
containing three ounces, were tampcd
down in the hole and connected with II
fuse The explosion shook the ground
and the air was filled with flying boudcrs.
The result achieved would have required
two pounds OF gunpowdcr or one pound
Of dynamite, while only nine ounces Of
cXtrallte were used.
The manufacture of the explosive will
be- commenced in New Britain nj once.
The street commissioners Of Hartford have
decided TO use IL IN the cily's quarries.
The French government IL snid 10 have
paid 100000 francs for the right TO use IL.
