Grant dropped dead 50 a.m. on the street,” ne report spread very rapidly, and very soon business mon, department clrks and others were eageriy inquiting for later Intelligence, and the excitement ran quite high. None of the telegraph offices except the Merchants’ xnd Bankers seemed to have any Information on the supject. A little before noon a fresh dispatch was pasted onthe board. It read: “LaTex.—Rumored death of Gen. Grant by apo- plexy denied by members of tue faintly.” ‘This information did not spread as rap!dly as that contained in the first dispatch, but during the afternoon matters began to quiet down. ‘The two dispatenes still hung on the railing, and every passer-by stopped to reud them. THS NEWS IN THR*:EPARTMENTS. The rumor that Gen. Grant had dropped dead this morning flew Uke. wildfre through the up- town departments, and created a profound sensa- tion. Telegrms of ingutry were at once sent to the Western Untoa office “trom the department ! branciies, and_ telephone connections were made with the White House for information. It was sometime before it was learned that the report was false. at The New Naval Uniforms. A CLAIM THAT THEY ARE NOT SO EXPENSIVE AS ‘THOSE WORN AT PRESENT. As stated in yesterday’s STAR many naval oM- cers of prominence claim that tie proposed changes in the naval untform will not increase the expenses of a naval officer, but will reduce them. They say that the new regulations (not yetin force) authorize a helmet in place of straw hate, white caps, and white cap covers, hereto- fore worn: a white duck bipuse or service coat in place of a double-breasted $hort white jacket; an ulster overcoat in place of @ Caban overcoat, and cape extending to the knee; and prescribes a dli- ferent form of cap with distinguishing marks for cominauding officers, ‘The! number of tull dress sword belts fs reduced from 9 to 4: In other words, the number of belts whigh an oMcer must buy between the grades of midgitpminand rear a: mntral fs less Dy five, and Baves him about # ‘Those who have the overcaat at present autho fzed —only about one In twenty—can cone form to the proposed change by having a belt and hood fitted and buttons changed ata cost of about $2. ‘The difference between the price of an ulster overcoat and a caban overcoat, with cape, is about $25 in fovor of the former.” With thé above exceptions all the articles of uniform con- tained in the proposed change are required by the regulations at present In Toree.

AN OFFICIAL EXPLORATION PARTY—THE ROUTE TO BE FOLLOWED AND THE MODE OF TRAVEL. The expedition into the Yellowstone Park in August by the President, Secretary Lincoln, Gen.

The cuiliren, with the ald of their elders, who pald for tueir r°tresh- ments, succeeded in cleaning out taree bushels of peanuts by thi oolock, ani in a short time there.iter the one hundred gallons of ice cream provided for the oceasion was gone.

Then the crowd took various modes of passing the tme. Some young ladies and young men gath- ered around the organ ‘and indulged in sentimental muste with a dash or two of the comic; others engaged in “jogging along,” and Kindred plays; older ones talked over old'tumes, admired the graud-children and debated with deep interest, the questions “whether ice cream 1s healthy?” and “how will lemonade and peanuts act?” John Jackson, John Garduer and Squire Harmon, the three Oldest men on the ground, talked over some interesting reminiscences of the olden ume, ‘TNE APPROACHING CAMP MEETING.

Clark, manager of the Baltimore and Ohio telegraph here, said to a Stan reporter: “We are in the same fix as the Western Union, Our men have gone out; they quit at 12 o'clock. The first we heard of stopping were the Chicago opera- tora. They quit at 12, Chicago me. ‘Then as the hour of 12 arrived in other offices further east. the operators went out.” Le “Have you men enough left to run the office?” Y Cob. Clark.—“Oh, yes, I've got enough to run the business here. I can get the messages out of this office, but can’t tell what deiay they will meet at other points. I think our people made a pretty, thorough canvass, and ascertained Just how many men they could depend upon.” WHAT MANAGER WHITNEY, OF THE WESTERN UNION, SAYS: Manager Whitney, of the Western Union office, sald: “Weare taking all the business that is offered, but at the sender's risk. We send It that way when in full foree, but now advise senders that there may b2 extra delay. We have men enough left to operate this office.” AT THE AMERICAN RAPID OFFICE the reporter was informed that that company would only receive messages for New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. Business to thes? places was being transmitted on the automatic plan, and the company felt able to cover it, though senders are admonished that they must risk delay. THE BRANCH OFFICES IN TNE INTERIOR AND POST OFFICE DEPARTMENTS. All the branch telegrap ofices in the Post OMice and Interior departments closed on the re- celpt of the Grant dispatch. At the Post OMice de- partment the operator for the B. and O. Telegraph company, and the Rapid Telegraph company, closed their offices and left. ‘The fern Union ! operator, Mir. Jas. L.

Mr. Saffel safd to a Star reporter: “I amin sym- hy with this movement, but I could not con- Vince myself that it could succead. I saw one strike and that was a miserable failure. 1 have a family of children dependent on me, and can’t afford to get up and move off as these young tcl- | lows do.” “Say, Jim, what are you doing here? Ain't you goinz to close up this plint?” asked one of the Striking operators, who dropped in to see Mr. Saffell “No, Iam not!” was the firm response, ind the visitor took his departure. “I hear thatCinctunati is the only place where they are.short handed,” Mr. Suffell remarked. Mr. Ham Young, tie assistant manazer of the Western Union, dfopped in to see now Mr. Saffell was getting on. To a Stak reporter he said: “We are getting along allright now. We have plenty of men, but in some places we are shopt handed Just at pres- ent. But it will be all right soon,” “How ts tt golng to end?” asked the reporter. “I don’t know,” Was the reply. it depends on what outside backing thry have. They have noth- tng themselves,” and with this remark Mr. Young hurried off. NOTES. At the Baltimore an! Onto office nine of the day force have abandoned thelr tustrument’, leaving | Manager Clarke, who 1s an operator, with two men. ‘The American Raptd employed only one opera- tor, who was also mnager, and he bas struck. The Southern and Bankers and Merchants em- ploy four men besides Manager Cox, who is also an operator. All of these remain at their posts, ‘The operators are very Intignant at Mr. May- nard, the telephone man, because he has offered his services to the We n Union. One of them | sald with bitter emphasis: Sand Maynard 1s the man who assisted Guiteau to get the pistol | with which he shet the President.” It is rumored here that the report that General Grant had dropped dead in the street in York was the signal agreed upon to communteste | to the operators the order to strike, 1t being well understood thit the public at large as well as the operators migut be relied upon to spread that story rapidly. NO SMALL STRIEE, ‘rhe indtcations are that the telegraph compa- nies are disappointed as to the number of opera- tors who remain at work. The strike is more gen- eral than Was anticipated. It 1s claitned that the Knights of Labor are behind the strike, and one of the Oldest and most influential among the opera- tors sald toa Stan reporter: “Tnere are 800,000 Knights of Labor, and the understanding 1s that thy will levy an ‘assessment of ten cents per week upon each man to raise a fund for the support of the operators as long as they remain out.
