Loxpon, June 17.—At the conference of con- servatives yesterday, It issaid Lord Randolph Churehill made a condition of his acceptance of office that Sir Stafford Northcote should not be made leader of the conservatives in the house of commons. Sir Henry Drummond Wolff, member of par- Vament for Portsmouth, Will have a position in the cabinet. The conference of conservative leaders to-day lasted one hour. It is said that a result of the conference is that all obstacles to the formation ofacabinet have been surmounted. All who attended the conference are, however, pled tosecrecy. At the close of the conference Lord Randolph Churchill remained in private con- ference with the Marquis of Salsbury. ‘The conservative leaders will have another meet- ing before a decision is finally taken upon the constitution of the new cabinet. ANOTHER GROWL FROM THE RUSSIANS. The Pall Mal Gazette of this afternoon hasan editorial article believed to be inspired L Lessar, of the Russian section of the Afghan boundary commission, and couched In angry terms. Tt says that ‘unless the Marquis ot Salisbury wishes to deepen the conviction of Russia that his ministry is a menace of war, he will cancel the appointment of Lord Randolph Churchill as secretary of state for India. “Russia,” continues the article, “already regards the Salisbury cabinet with such suspicion that any sudden hitch may cause suc! ‘upture with the negotiations now in progress as will result in war.” LORD SALISBURY GOS TO WINDSOR.

Gen. Grant Very Weak—His Voice not so Husky This Morning. Y., June 17.—When Gen. s pillowed chair on the piazza of the Drexel cottage here, soon after his ar- rival yesterday, the thermometer on a pillar in front of him’marked the temperature 83°. Mr. Drexel said that was an excessive heat for the locality. Clouds and rain at sunset beat the mercury down to overcoat temperature. On through the night, until 3 o'clock, gusty winds swept the rain in sheets over the moun- tain; but the sun came up over the green moun- tains thismorning and found no clouds. At 10 o'clock the thgrmometer before the general's window marke 65°. Dr, Douglas felt encour- aged when hecame ont at 9o’clock. He thought the general had slept well. although he had been called to attend him three times during the night. The huskiness of his voice was consid- erably relieved, but its loss had been owin; general weakness, rather than fatigue, and its Tecovery would be slow. Col. Fred. Grant said Of his father this morning: “He had consider- able rest last night, and this morning his voice has improved so that we can understand him when he tries to whisper. When I went to ah room a little while ago he whispered very faintly that he found his voice a little stronger to-day, but that he should not try to use it, hop- ing that, with caution, it would grow strong enough ‘so, he could ‘talk again. But,” ad- ded Col. Grant, “the failure ot fathers voles is owing to debility, and he is growing weaker all the while. The change of air he feels Just now, but, as I said, his weakness constaitl grows upon him.” ’A little white tent, wil Small flags fluttering from it, is pitched close to Gen. Grant's cottage. It Js Secupied by 8. W. Willetts, an old soldier in uniform, who has been employed to protect the general from in- trusion by strangers. ‘Last evening, while thunder and rain rattled on the mountain, Col. Fred. Grant hurried out to the tent of the guard. “Is there any milic in camp?" he asked. “A can came up with you from New York,” was answered. “I know that, but the thunder has turned it all thick and sour and father is most starved,” returned Col. Fred. “Then there is not adrop in camp,” said the veteran, following the colonel’s vernacular, “but I ean get some a couple of miles down thé mountain.” An hour later the general was taking his condensed beef in Alderney milk, drawn from a blooded cow in a lantern-lighted stable down the mountain side.

Saeeente Investigating eo Maladminist- WHATS SAID BY BOTH THE FRIENDS AND OPFO- NENTS OF THE PRESENT ARRANGEMENT. The ‘board of directors of Columbia hospital have been, for two nights past, conducting an investigation into the general management of that insititution, No formal charges have been made against the physician in charge or his management, but rumors, innuendoes and charges ofa general nature have been circulated. A committee was appointed to look into the matter for the purpose of determiningwhether or not an investigation should be held. Attersome inquiry the committee reported in favor of an investigation by the full board, and it was be- gun Monday evening. It was decided also to conduct the inquiry ‘with closed doors, Mon- Gay cvening the taking of testimony econ menced, and it was continued last evening, from which time the board adjourned until next week. Some of the assistant physicians and attendants were examined, and further evidence will be heard, There are two aistinct factions, it appear, in the board, and their views, respectively, the proper way of conducting the hospital aie fer widely. One of the trustees, who has been connected with the management of the hos- be fora pumber of years, said to a STAR re- ‘nis is but the continuance of the Bid fight. An long as twelve years ago we ap- pointed an advisory board of physicians. They Went through the hospital trom time to time, and recorded on each oceasion in their visitin: books that everything was going on well and properly, But atthe end of the year in their report they recommended thatthe hospital be turned over to the physielans’ control. ‘That was not adopted, and the advisory board re- signed ina huff. ’ Another was appointed, and they, like the first, recorded over their own siz- natures the highest commendation of the hos- pitsl and its management, but they too wanted he character of the management changed, and resigned because it. was not. done. ‘The’ hos- pital has been attacked in the most shameful manner, The vilest charges have been anony- mously made against the management, and a few case ago a committee ot pl ysicians was appointed to make a thorough Investi- gation. did so, and had to_re- They Port, that ‘the charges were groundless. Tho ‘ospital is for the treatment of a pecu- liar class of complaints, and the board have not thought it wise to alternate the physicians In charge of it. Outside of the charity feature many of the best ladies of the country go there, and it stands to reason that they would not like to be treated by one set of physicians this week, another set next week and soon. It has been deemed wisest and best to have a physician in charge, and I venture to say there {s not a hos- pital of the same kind in the country that can show so“ good a record for ten years past. This is the same old fight to bring about a change in the character of the management. For my part, I think the investigation will end as the last one did, The hospital is admirably and skillfully conducted.” Another member of the board, one of the congressional trustees, said to-day that, so far ashe could judge from the testimony already paren he thought the matter wore a serious a3- pect. He sald the charge of drunkennessagainst the physician in charge was the most serio one,and that it had been sustained by the testi- mony of some of the assistants, He added that the board was determined to make a thorough investigation, and that it would act promptly if it found that there had been maladministra- on. Soar ge boas Trustee vs. Supervising Principal. A CONTEST IN MR. BIRNEY’S DIVISION—PETI- TIONS TO HAVE MR. BIRNEY ASSIGNED TO ANOTHER DIVISION, Petitions are being circulated among resl- dents of the second school division asking the school board to assign Mr. Birney to some other division than the second. This movement against Mr, Birney grows immediately out of a proposition which Mr. Birney is credited with entertaining of removing Mr. N. P. Gage, the present supervising principal of the division. Mr. Birney’s complaint against Mr. Gage, it isstated, is that that gen- tleman has not acted in harmony with him as atrustee. In several matters relating to school management the supervising principal has taken grounds against the trustee. Some days ago Mr. Birney proposed to Mr. Gage that the latter should exchange places with Mr. Janney, supervising principal of the 5th division, or otherwise be dropped from the schools, as he would not renominate him. A knowledge of this pro} i has aroused the ex-t trustees, the parents and others Interested In the schools in the second division,who object very strongly to Mr. Gage being removed in such a way. Mr Wan SE, Haun, President of the school board, said to-day that it was a question how far the power conierred upon a trustee by_ the board extended. The trustee is authorized by the rules of the board to nominate the teachers for his division. If,a trustee failed to nomi- nate, the board, he ‘thought, could appoint a committee to go over the list of his division, as the trustee, in making the nominations, was acting only ‘ag @ committee of the |. Some time ago the board adopted a resolution requir- ing trustees to hand in their nominations for the ensuing year by the 23d inst, The nomina- tions for several of the divisions have been re- ceived. Mr. Birney, who is out of the city, has not made his nominations yet. ‘hese eens go to the teachers’ com- mittee for roval before being reported to the board. ql is committee, Mr. ‘Baum thought, would not approve any changes in the lists where it appeared that the changes were made merely for the purposes of slaughter and not for the benefit of the schools. pibarssdes taal A Destructive Fire.

The fire originated in the hay loft in the rear of the about A colored man recently employed about the stable is suspected of havingset the Plsceon fire, ‘The building, which is owned by irs.

Thestablemen cut them loose and turned them into the street and they were afterwards pos feta The entire | in- cluding the value of the 17 horses burned, is estimated at. over $10,000. Among the horses burned was Flora, a fust trotter, belonging to Gen. Beale, and valued at $1,500;a colt formerly belon, longing to Major Thds. P. Morgan, and valued at $500; a pair of bays, valued at $800, and a sorrel, Valued at $350." About $1,000 worth of harness and $600 worth of hay were destroyed. The scene in the second story of the building, where the stable was locaied, was horrible. There were four rows of stalls running north and south, the south loft being filled with about twenty tons of pressed and loose hay, with a large quantity of loose rye straw. The hay and straw were set on fire, and the flames must have spread very rapidly, smothering the horses in thelr stalls. Some of them were led to the exit, but refused to go out, and rushed back into the flames and were burned to death. ‘The postures in which they were found shows how they must have suffered, and all of them were burned almost to a crisp, their flesh bursted, falling off the bones; one of the horses had attempted to go up a'stairway and fell and perished’ on the stairs; others were on their side or backs, their feet and legs stretched upwards, all showing that death was proceded by the greatest seony.

NOW FOR VACATION. Final Closing Exercises of the Public Schools—The List of Graduates From the Grammar Schools. This was the last day of the school year. Closing exercises were held in the eighth grade (white) schools, or grammar schools, of the elty, and in the county schools. The colored schools in the Sumner, Garnett, Randall and Anthony Bowen buildings were closed, completing the lst of colored schools. The exercises in the eighth grade schools were very interesting. In some of the divisions no elaborate programs had been prepared, as the supervising princi- pals enforced an old rule of the school board -discountenancing anything of that kind. The eighth grade, or grammar school, represented, until the High schools were established, the highest grade to which a pupil could attain in the public schools. Many scholars now com- plete their schooling with the e rade,and, as it is regarded as the top round of the ladder of the graded schools, paplis who complete the gourse are givena certificate in the following “Public Schools of the District of Columbia.
