MRS. uAnRlsoNs CONDITION.
Another Successful Operation Performed
Bnt sho is Not Out Of Dhnger.

Another Successful Operation Performed
Dut shO is Not Ont Of Danger.
LOOK LAKE HOUSE, N. Y, Sept. l6.-
There was no particular change in Mrs.
Harrison's general condition to-day.
The result of this mornings operation
for tho removal of the fluid in the chest
cavity has given the attending physi-
clans some slight encouragement, as
the quickness OF her recovery from the
shock OF the puncture indicates the
possession by the patient OF considera-
bic strength and vitality.
One OF tho physicians present at tho
operation remarked to-day that he
would not have been surprised had she
succumbed during its progress. 1t was
therefore resorted to to-day with con-
siderable misgivings, and the great sue
cess attending it caused corresponding
qualification. While the danger OF a
fatal termination OF the case is not alto
gether removed by the successful treat
ment OF the pleuroic complication, the
latter circumstances, oil course, adds con-
siderably to the ultimate prospects OF
the patient.
1t is an open secret that none of the
physicians who have attended Mrs.
Harrison will venture a public predic-
ton that she will certainly recover.
The President was so much encouraged
at the success OF to-day's operation
that he went for short walk in the
mountains with Mrs. Dimmick. This
is the first time for several days that
he has lett the cottage except to get his
meals.

Commissioner Peck Believes thRt n Pub.

ALBANY, N. Y, Sept. 16.-A commit

committee, comprising Hon. Nelson

son and Edward McSweeny, called on
Commissioner Peck, of the state bureau
OF labor statistics, this afternoon and
labored with him for over an hour to
secure the names OF the manuiacturers
reporting to him tho dfFect OF the tariff
on their respective industries. They
also asked to see the individual returns,I
but Mr.. Peck held to his original state
ment that he would show nothing but
what was contained in his full annual
report, which was hardly what the
committee was alter.
Mr.. Smith acted as spokesman, and
when Mr.. Anderson interrupted, Com-
missioner Peck said that il Mr.. Ander-
son did not keep quiet, he would refuse
to have anything to do with the COM
mittee. He would not recognize Mr..
Anderson in any way. The cross-iire
between Mr.. Peck and Mr.. Anderson
at times was very hot, the latter telling
the former not to be insulting. Finally
Mr.. Smith read a list OF questions re-
garding the preparation oil the tariff re.
port, which he said, il answered, would
satisfy the committee. Mr.. Peck said
most Of the questions could be an
swered by reference to his report, but
he, himself, volunteered no answer to
the questions. Theupshot OF the mat
ter was that the committee left for New
York later this afternoon without find
ing out anything at all.

NEw YoaE, Sept. l6.-The Bohemia
which arrived last night is another
scandia. Eleven deaths on the voyage
are given as due to gastro.intostinal
trouble by the doctor, but according to
all appearance, they are duo to genuine
Asiatic cholera. She left the plague
stricken city OF Hamburg September 8,
and three days later Sara Dister was
taken i'll. 1t was no case OF infRntile

There were two on the eighth and then
a stay OF four days when again a case

emphasize this, it rejected, by the same
overwhelming vote, the moderate low
tariff proposition reported by its own
committee containing this clause i'm
plying that the tariff might still be so
framed by Democrats as to give u GER
tain measure Of protection to American
wage.earners. Thus the policy is for
the first time boldly enunciated, and
frankly defended by the national Dem
ocratic party, that the tariff should have
no relation to wages, and no re-
lation to the protection OF American
industries; that it should be arranged
solely for the purpose OF raising rreve-
nue., and by consequence, should have
all the characteristics Of revenue
tariff, which presses only upon articles
we arc bound TO import from abroad,
like coffee, tea and sugar, and 80 that
the tariff should be as a direct tax, and
directly felt by every American citizen,
as il imposed upon the watch in your
pocket or the flour in your pantry. In
briei. it is the Democratic demand ct
last honestly made for an English tariH
with, Of course, English wages to follow.
Hon. John NJ. Thurston, OF Nebraska,
was then introduced and entertained
the audience with stories and an elo-
9uent argument in opposition to the
Democratic position on the tariff and
currency questions.
He was followed by short speeches
from the Hon. A. ]. Lester, OF illinois;

los, aud Representative Allen, OF Mich
