THE EVENTS OF THE DAY
Presidents Hearty Breakfast Did Not
Aqree With Him.

Buffalo, Sept. 13.-Six days have
now elapsed since the President was
shot, and yesterday afternoon he COM
planned somewhat of fatigue. That
was the only disquieting word which
came from the sick room during the
day. The President had had a restful
night. and the beef juice which the
doctors gave him had been relished
so keenly that yesterday morning he
was given solid food for the first time.
He was bathed and then enjoyed a
breakfast of chicken broth, toast and
coffee. He felt so good after this
somewhat substantial meal that he
asked for a mild cigar.
DR.. McBurney, the dean Of the corps
of attending physicians and surgeons,
was thoroughly satisfied with the pa
tents condition and went to New
York at l o'clock to look after some
urgent private affairs. His intention
is to return in few days. Meantime
he will keep in constant touch with
the Milburn house and be prepared tc
come back at a moments notice. Sec
retary Root also left on the same train
A slight reaction, however, followed
the buoyancy of the morning. The
President complained of being tired

COMPLAINTS ABOUT WIRE FENCE
Children and Women'S Dresses Torn by
Enclosure lhNnt Delaware hOsnitaI

Complaints axe being made about
the barbed wire fence that surrounds
that portion OF the Delaware Hospital
grounds that faces Fourteenth street,
and it is probable that the managers
of the institution will be requested TO
remove it, a it Is against the ordi-
nance to maintain such q structure
within the city limits.
Surrounding the hospital grounds Is
a hedge. and when this was planted
the managers erected the fence to pro-
tect IL from injury. with the under
standing that IL should be removed
when the hedge should become of suf-
ficicnt growth to care for Itself That
stage has been reached, and the fence
as a source of protection, IL Is said,
is no longer needed.
Along Fourteenth street from Wash
ington to jefferson streets. a concrete
sidewalk has been laid which has be-
come a playground for children as
well as q fayorite walk for pedestrians.
ln many instances little girls dresses
have caught on the barbs and have
been badly torn. Women also have
had their clothing damaged by having
it blown against the fence. The at
tention of the Street and Sewer De-
partment has been called to the sub
ject but 1t is not probable that any
action will be taken. as the managers
will remove the fence without notice.
When the new improvements TO the
building and grounds were contem.
plated. it was the intention OF the
management to do away away will
the old driveway at Fourteenth anC
Washington streets, and construct one
| leading to Fourteenth and JenersoI
streets. This idea was carried out
but the plans again were changed. anI
a telford driveway has been built lead

SEVERAL FIRMS
WANT INTEREST
Delaware River Clay Proves
to be Valuable
LARGE PLANT MAY Be STARTED
New York, Washington and Balti-
mere Parties Desire to
Form Combination

From present appearances, the value
3f Delaware river clay for the manu-
'acture Of pottery and bricks Of vari-
BUS kinds is rapidly becoming known
nd it is possible that a large manu-
.acturing plant will be erected in or
ear this city shortly.
In speaking on the subject this
lorning, j. M. Solomon, president Of

any, which has the sole right under
harter to remove the clay from the

1T is true that Mr.. Neary, as sec
etary Of the company, has received
ommunications from brick and pot
ery firms in New York, Baltimore and
Washington, who desire to combine
ith us in the manufacture Of fire and
itrified brick and pottery, but as yet
have taken no action in the mat
r. There is no question but that the
ay taken from the Delaware river
jas undisputed qualities for the manu-
cture Of brick, ETC., as we have dem
lstrated that satisfactorily. Outside
lrties have become interested, but
hat the outcome will be / am not
repaired to say at present. So far we
I'VE made no attempt to start a plant
pre-, although we have considerable
the clay on hand.
Should a combination be formed
e plant would be located in or near
is city. as it has an outlet both north
ld south, being centrally located
d also has excellent facilities both
land and water"
i Tests already have been made as tc
p qualities Of the clay for brick max
3 purposes, and it has proved to be
psf satisfactory. It's qualities fol
& ttery making are also excellent, Mr.
lomon stating that he has seen an
