SENATOR Morton's HEALTH.—The friends of Senator Morton in this city insist that the dispatches persistently misrepresent his condition, and continue to assert that he is steadily improving. A letter dated the tit) instant, received by Mr. Edward Bangs, of this city, from Col. Holloway, toy ll that Dr. Thompson says:—“ Assure Bliss that he is 9 litue better than when he left.” The following dispatch has been received by Dr. Bliss later: RIcuMOnD, IND., Sept. 7, 1 Dr. Finn = Washington, D.

SENATOR CONKLING’S ATTITUDE. — A Saratoga dispatch to the Philadelphia Times Says: “Senator Conkling is undoubtedly on the war path. The next state convention of the repuSiican party in New York, soon to be assembled in Rochester, will contain a large majority of Conkling men—two-thirds to Ubree-fourths. Senator Conkling wili ap- = there in person, as a delegate from meida county or Utica. He never goes to conventions in this way, except with a de- termined purpose to Speak and carry his point. I am informed that the platform of the convention will be tart upon the course ud will explicitly de- ding office-holders t» take part in partisan and public things, ani that the southern policy of the administra- tion will not be criticised so much as the civil service policy.” ONE OF THE THKEE—HoWARD, STURGIS OR STINKING WATER.—The following dis- patch was received at the War depariment last evening: CHICAGO, Sept. 7.— Adjutant Genertl, US A.. Washington, D. C- Tae to!lowing dispaten Just received trom Geueral Terry:—* Cap:atu Revbam, commanding Fort “Ellis. states that a courier, just in, reports Howard on the Yellowstone, Opposite the mouth of Kast Fork, yesterday. Hostiles passed Soda Butte inines the day before, and are moving slowly down Clark’s Fork. Sturgis, with six com- panies of cavalry, moved up Clark’s Fork from the old C. F. Smith road on the 3d. The mines are about twenty miles up the East Ferk, on the north fork of the stream. They must now either fight Howard or Sturgis, or strike for Stinking Water.” (Signed) P. H. Snexipan, Lieut. Gen’l. THE CUSTOMS SEKVICE ON DELAWARE Bay anv RIVER.—The report of Special Agent Williams of his tour of inspection of the operations of the customs service on the Delaware bay and river was received at the Treasury department to-day. The following are the recommendations made: Ist. That the office of deputy collector and inspector at the ports of Chester, Pa.; New Castle and Seatord, Del., and at Delaware City, as at present established, be discontinued, and the oftice rented at New Castle be given up. 21. That one boatman at Lewes, Del., be dis- charged. 3d. That there be established at Fort Delaware, oif Delaware City, a board- ing station, with two deputy collectors and inspectors, with four boatnien to attend to the boarding of all vessels arriving from foreign ports, and the searching, but more particularly the sealing of the same, and that they be required to report datly their official acts in the manner ber-inbefore explained. 4th. That the port of Philadelphia be pro erly districted, as required by articles | and 1093 of regulations, and that the district officers be required to report daily the ves- seis from foreign ports upon their district. 5th. That but one tnspector be detailed al a time for boarding duty at Philadelphia. That district officers be placed on duty at Camden, N. J., for the same duty as the dis- trict officers at apy oe and under the same iustructions,and that a night watch- map be stationed there, or at Gloucester, just below Camden, to watch vessels arriving at night. If Camden is patrolled in this Manner. I am of the opinion the services of the de) and collector there could be dispensed. with, if there be no legal obstruction to ves- sel owners obtaining their papers in Phila- delphia. QUESTION AND ANSWER.—Editor of The Evening Siar. In your issue of Thursday you propound the following interesting conun- rum: * After all, does it make much difference to the country whether the Presiaent of the United States spends bis summers at Long Branch or in junketing toure all over the land? Just where does the reform come in, is what the voter will be wanting to know presentiy!”” . President Jefferson seems “to have antici- Pitad ond encworst this covundrum in a let- T to Governor Sullivan, of Massachusetts, as follows: “« WASHINGTON, June 19, 1897. “ Dear Sir: * # * With respect to the tour my friends to the north have that I should make in that quarter, I have not The course of life made up a fina] opinion. which General Washington had run, civil his examples the wei others, because no can a the — which he a ublic homage.

The President, his wife and two sons, with | Attorney General Devens and Postmaster General Key, arrived at Marietta, Ohio, yes- terday, and participated in the Reaaion En- campment of the Soldiers. Mayor Palmer Welcomed the distinguished guests, when Presideut Hayes responded as fol : I wish that I was prepared to bly on this occasion. My friend, Mayor Palmer, in his address informs me that in every speech made at this great national re- union e: couragement has b-en given to that spirit of fraternity which it is the desire of those associated with me in the administra- tion to do something during our term of ser- vice to advance. ‘edo not, in meeting the people, propose to discuss any of the great Tanbed questions which divide the people who Onor Us With their attention. [Cheers.) We ivave that to be discussed before the ple by those who may be appointed by the re- spective parties to carry on those debates; but we do feel that if in Visiting our fellow- citizens in differer.t states we can add any- thing to strengthen the sentiments alluded to by the mayor, it isright and proper that we should do it. [Applause.) All who are fa- miliar with the history of our country know that one »undred yeais ago there was no rorth and no south. The fathers were one throughout the whole coantry. Washington and Jefferson were side by side with Frank lin and Adams. Daniel Morgan and his Vir- ginians marched from Virginia to Boston. They were at Saratoga. and Nathaniel Greene and his Continentals were in the Carolinas. The whole country belonged to the fathers. It Is to that state of harmony and of iraternal friendship that we desire our country to return to. you” and cheers.) Weare for tue Union as itis. (Cheers | We are for the Constitation as ftis. [Cheers.) With all its amendments. (A voice, ‘That's it”—great cheers.| We want the citizens of eve.y state to feel at home in every other state. [Amen and cheers.) If acitizen of Vermont travels to Georgia or Texas for business or pleasure we waut him to feel at home in those states. (Cheers.} Ifa citizen of Texas or Georgia travels north we want that citizen to feel at home everywhere throughout the Union. Now, my friends, I don’t pro) to detain you. I have made a much longer speech a. than I intended when I entered your tor ut you understand the purpose. We make mistakes in methods, mistakes in measures, but the sentiment we would er courage is #sentiment ofnatiovality through- out the Union. [Applause.) We all regard the service of that four years’ war. We re- gard that period of four years as the most interesting of our lives. We fought them. Those of us wiio were in the Union army fought, as we believed, to make this forever hereafter a united people, forever hereafter a free people, and we rejoice to-day to believe that those who were against us in that strug- gle are how with us on both of these ques- tions, and will forever remain with us on botb of these questions. (Cheers loud and long.) And now, my friends, you will desire to hear from some of those Who are asso- ciated with me in the government. Two members of the Cabinet are here—Postmas- ter General Key, of Tennessee, and General Devens, Attorn-y General. They fought on opposite sides during those four years, but to-day and here they are prepared ‘to fight, if need be, on the same side. [Great cheers.| And now I will introduce to you Judge Key. J am cure te is an able man; I am sure he is an honest man; I am sure he 1s a patriotic mi [Cheers. } OSTMASTER GENERAL KEY’S REMARKS. Judge Key, on coming forward, delivered @ patriotic —. in which, referring to the fact that he had fought on the other side dur- ing the rebellion, he said he much preferred to meet his northern auditors as friends than as enemies on the batilefield. The war was decided against the south, and the southern people had accepted the result in good faith, and now believe in the Union as it is, with all the amendments to the constitution. ches were also mage by Attorney Gen- eral Devens and others. Subsequenily tbe baile flag of the 36th Ohto regiment was pri - sented to the President at the city hall, when he returned thanks in some patriotic re- marks. The Presidential party left Martetta ut 16 o'clock last night in a@ special train by way of Cambridge for Fremont, his home, where he willspend Saturday, Sunday aud Monday. THE Paris E SITION OF 1878.—The United States Secretary of Legation at Paris bas forwarded to the Department of State a ecpy of a cirenlar issued by the Directors of Foreign Section of the Universal Exposi- ‘ion ef 1878, und sent to the commissions of foreign countries, urging them to prompt action. The cirentar states that the essential parts of the buildings will be completed by the [5th of the present month, and the floors Will be laid by the 1st of October. The com- mission of each country can then take pos- session of and parcel out its section. ADVANCE 1N COAL.—A Wilkesbarre, Pa., dispatch says: The sale agents for the various coal companies in this region held their regular monthly meeting in this city yester- day, and it was decided to advance the price of coal twenty cents per ton for Nerthern and Western markets. It has been customar: for railread companies to aivance their freight rates one-half the advance made in the price of coal, but asthe Lehigh Valley road made a clear jump of eighty cents a ton a short time ago, it is not likely that any further advance will be made by this com- pany at present. THE LATE Ben Dx Bar's BRAIN Dis- EASE.—We doubt if Mr. De Bar’s overwork bad any Uhing to do with his brain disease. Several years ago Mr. De Bar, finding his hair turning gray, resorted to the use of a powerful mixture to restore it to its original color. A preparation of lead was one of the strongest Ingredients in the composition. He Was warved at the time that the stuff, if used for any length of time, would be apt to affect his brain; but he gave no heed to the warn- ing, and continued the use of the restorative.

Graphic Description of the Eagage- men The London Times’ war correspondent gives a graphic account of the battle of Lo- vatz, which is the centre of anamphitheatre, bout three-fourths of a mile in diameter at ‘he bottom, and ten miles atthe top, which is formed by the crests of the encircling hills which rise to an elevation of about 609 feet, and are easy of ascent. Through the centre of this sonkithentre runs a ridge from south- eastand northwest. The river Osma flows deep down in this rocky ridge, between two perpendicular precipices, and in its course Separates the eastern end of the ridge from the sides of the amphitheatre, leaving an isolated position in the valley. The from Selvi to Lovatz passes along the east- ern end of the ridge down into the latter city, which is situated inthe river flat, with its southern end resting against the preci pices of the Osma channel, already mentioned. This isolated gg of the centra! ridge formed the eastern key of the Lovaiz position. The northwestern end of the ridge, west of the city, runs out into an eminence about a hun- dred feet above the river, and upon this ele- vation stcod a strong redoubt commanding the road to Plevna, and forming the western and principal key ‘to the Turkish position. The Osma river describes a curve Sirouen the valley, and the road runs along its banks beyond the redoubt, and thence up the side ofthe amphitheatre towanis Plevna. THE RATTLE BEGINS. At 6o’clock in the morning the guns posted on the peaks previously secured by General Skobelef opened fire. It was nearly half an Four before the Turks replied. At 6:15 o'clock heavy masses of infantry were concentrated behind the hills from which we were firing. Stray rifle shots were heard away on our right, where Gen. Dobrovolsky was to make the first attack on some smai! hills along the Tight bank of the Osma, which rise up [rom the slope of the amphitheater. Upon two of these bills were the redoubts previonsly men- tioned as being without guns, but strong! beld by infantry. Ati o'clock the patter skirmishing shots began to fall more rapid upon the ear, and it was evident that Dx brovolsky was advancing. The artillery did most of the fighting until 5 o'clock, when the right wing made @ rush forward and the muskeiry firing became very heavy, the Turks pouring a steady rain of fireover their rapets. At 8:45 o’clock two regiments of infantry were ordered up to assist the tirall- leurs of Dobrovolsky. THE HEAT INTENSE. Even at this early hour the t is intense. An officer arriving from the line of march of these two regiments states that a hundred men have fallen by the wayside, overcome by the heat. At 9 o'clock the rifle fire in- creases in intensity and extends further up the Osma. The tiralileurs are sweeping the Turks down, and our guns open a heavy fire to assist the infantry in their onward move- ment. At half-past 9 o'clock the Navinsky regiment winds through a little defile behind one of the two Turkish redounts, and the two. regiments named after the German emperor move upon the other. The correspondent then recited the ress of the battle, which was without definite result between the hours of 9 a.m. and 2:30) p. m., when the assault was made. He Bays: At 2:30 o’clock the order to attack wai given, and the men rushed across the valley amid ‘a perfect hailstorm of bullets. In a few moments the ground wi DOTTED WITH DEAD AND WOUNDED Russians, and the survivors were resting under the little ridge of the road and the Osma. The men advanced in open order at @ rush, and the Turks kept = a steady Stream of fire. There was not the slightest break in the rain of bullets, and yet it was wonderful to see how smi & portion of them took effect. Sometimes a single soldier would run across the whole space between the river and bluff. I could see where every bullet hit around bim by the dust which it threw up,and yet he generally got across unhurt. ‘There were minutes when no Rus- sian was under fire, and yet the Turks never stopped. It appears they were lying down in the trenenes fring over the parapets without looking. The ‘ussians declare they Lever Baw even a head above the bank. It is row 4 p.m. and THE DECISIVE MOMENT APPROACHES. The men along the Lovatz front of the work op: n fire and draw the bulk of the Turkish fire in their direction, when suddevly about °0 Russians make @ rush upon the eastern tace of the redoubt and approach within 5 dards of the ditch. They were compelled to retire by a tremendous Turkish fire, but ap- este A none of them were severely hurt, as none fell. After twenty minutes of desultory firing, the real attack is made up the wep. facing the easter side of the reloubt. Aussians rush up in order, meee a ‘cady stream of reinforcements following he sdvance. A perfeet deluge of shells is poured upon the redeubt from our batteries as the men rua up the si while the Turk- ish infantry fire is incessant, and if it were wel! ja every Russian would have been lown. THE STRUGGLE ENDED. Ae it was, mavy fell. Our artillery ceases firing as our men leap into the diteh and clamber up the parapet, while another col- umn rushes along the Lovatz face of the re- doubt to clear advence trenches. The Turks in the trenches fly to the westward, firing as they go, and falliug under the Rus- sian fire. In the redoubt thegerrison rush to the gorge im the western of the work. There is @ traverse covering the gorge, and the Tur. med between the Lraverse the westward, toa no force had been sent to cut off their THE TURKS ATTEMPT A RECAPTURE. A Russian official bulletin, Sept. 6, says: “On the sth the Turks attempted an attack on tz from Mikce, but were repulsed after four hours’skirmishing. On the 5th the Turks attacked the Russian corps near Rust- ebuk on the whole line, directing their chief aitacks against Kazelevo and Oblanowo. The first attack was carried ont by 15 bat ions of infantry and_15 squadrons of cav- alry, with 23 canuon. This force was further ivcreased during the engagement. Our column at Kazelevo, consisting of 5 but- talions of infantry and % squadrons of cav- alry, with some artillery, maintained its po- sitions with great determination for 6 hours; but was finally compelled to fail back on Osbreza with great loss. Our column at Ob- lanowo was aiso assailed by a large force, but repulsed all attacks and maintained its positions. In the Balkans all is quiet. Sulei man Pasha is organizing his army at Ka- zanlik.
