Morris Adler's fight with death has now re- solved itself into a question of endurance. Youth and an cxtraordinary amount of vitality are on the one side, but with the great oppo- nent is a wound that no human skill can heal. Nothing bata strong constitution and that quality termed “clear grit” could have made such a struggle possible. Yesterday, as Tue Star stated, was an uncomfortable day for the patient. His temperature was continu- ously high and enfecbling, and around the re- gion of the wound there was a great deal of ea Toward evening the pain increased to such an extent that morphia was administered hypodermically, rest. THE MORNING CONSULTATION. This morning the physicians in charge of the case held their regular morning consultation. | They found their patient's temperature to be 102 degrees—higher than it has been at any | morning examination gince the day after the | shooting. The respi mn was very much ob- | — , but not more#o than it has been for e what light food is given him, and he evidently enjoys it. Never wag he more hopeful than to-day, and if in his“heart he believes that a | fatal termination must come soon he never be- trays his feeling. Just how long it will be ere the end comes none | the tenacity with which he clings to existence. | There is nothing, the prea say, on which to build a prognoscis 6f recovery, and there are no symptoms of immédiate dissolution. at the Adler house this morning. The fragrant beauties were for the wounded man. On the | back of a card which-was tied to the basket was the name of Lew Newmeyer. DR. D. HAYES AGNEW, who was sent for by Ward, arrived in this city shortly before 2 f, m. and was at once driven to 606 H street where he met Drs. Mc- Blair, Bayne and J. Férd Thompson.

Le Droit Park Tennis Tournament. A tennis tournament, confined to players re- siding in Le Droit park, or members of the various clubs located there, was begun last evening. Tennis has become very popular among the residents of the park, and there are some ten or twelve courts there. Among so many good players which the enthusiasm in the game developed, it was difficult to decide which club had the lead. and so the tournament was decided upon to settle this vexed question. The prizes for singles are: First, a Granberry association racket, donated by Barber & Rosa, Second, to be selected, In addition Mr. Oscar Reineche has offered to the winner a gold medal to become the property of the player winning it three times. For doubles the first prize is two Slocum rackets—one donated by Col. W. W. Dudley and Mr. F. McClelland, the other by Mr. C. McClel- land—-the second prize to be selected. In the first round of the doubles yesterday Dudley and Butterworth beat Weaver and Cooper, 6-1, 6-1; Dyrenforth and Birney beat Gibbons and W. Hollingsworth, 6-2, 6-1; Williams and Wright beat Copenhaver and 8. Hollingsworth, 6-0, 6-2 nia J. Cuthbert, of Missouri, $1,200. Cilley and Williamson, 6-1, 6-4.

The warm weather is apt to start the small “boys toward the rivers, creeks and brooks where they can “goin swimming.” In order to evade the police they usually seek some se- cluded spot where they cannot be discovered easily. The result is that when one of them goes out beyond his depth there is no one near who can be called to the rescue. Thus far this season there have about six such cases of drowning in and about this city. There were two victims y aIn the morning there pgs gtr ted end of e ‘ishing in the ho’ sun was not refr and some of them de- termined to go in ming and get cool, George Tucson wasithe unlucky member of the crow He went out, too far and was caught in the current and drowned.

McDow's Case to Go to the Jury To-day. ——— A NOVEL OASE OF HYPNOTISM. —--__ THREE MORE INDICTMENTS. What is Expected From the Cronin Grand Jury. Curcaco, June 28.—The special grand jury will finish its labors on the Cronin case to-mor- row, when it will probably return at least three more indictments. The parties in question are said to be Alexander Sullivan, John F. Beggsand Patrick Cooney. There has been much talk about an omnibus indictment against Camp No. 20, but no such action will be taken. The course of the grand jury will be conserva- tive as far as indictments go. The report will be strong and will strike at the Clan-na-Gael in vigorous fashion. It was feared some days ago that the jury would not be able to finish its labors at this term, on account of the failure to produce stronger evidence connecting Alex- ander Sullivan with the case. The grand tend are morally certain that he is implicated, ut the legal evidence was lacking. It appears that such evidence has been forthcoming dur- ing the last two days, and that it came from a “squealer.” PART OF THE SAME CONSPIRACY, Referring to the anonymous articles, dis- patches, &c., that have appeared in the press for the past few weeks, saying that this and that person does not believe Dr. Cronin dead, | ® prominent member of the Cronin committee said yesterday: “They are inspired by the same source as was the conspiracy to kill Dr. Cronin and they are circulated throughout the country for the PErpore of preparing the public for one of the main points that the defense will attempt to make at the trial. “The defense will raise the point that the death of Dr. Cronin has not been proved; that the body was not positively indentified; and that the fact that the doctor's clothes would have been discovered in England just before the trial began would, had not that part of the scheme already been nipped in the bud by the press, tend to give color to the theory.” Several mem! of the Cronin committee and friends of the doctor were spoken to on this subject, and each gave it as his opinion that the above explanation of the attempts to | circulate a rumor that Dr. Cronin is not dead was the correct one, LUKE DILLON's FRIENDS, M. J. Ryan and John O'Donnell, of Philadel- phia, arrived in the city yesterday. The former was the attorney for Luke Dillon when he pre- ferred charges against the triangle of the Clan- na-Gael a few years ago. The three had a con- ference last evening and canvassed the steps thos for token in the Cognin murder investiga- John Fitzgerald, of Lincoln, Neb., president of the Irish national league, is at the Grand Pacific hotel, although his name does not ap- pear on the register. A reporter who called to see him Jast night was informed that Mr. Fitz- gerald was in the city on business, but a gen- Heman who is in a position to know says that Mr. Fitzgerald's visit to Chicago is to aid prose- cution in the Cronin case, Rothacker was Misquoted. Omana, Nes, June 28.—Editor 0. H. Rothacker, of the Repubiican, when asked last night about the interview with him in Kansas City in regard to to the Cronin case, said: “The reporter mis- quoted me. I didn’t say Cronin was alive. I said I had no evidence that he was dead.” When asked if he had any evidence that Cronin was still alive, Mr. Rothacker said: “If I had I shouldn't give it away.” A few days before Mr. Rothacker went to Kansas City Thomas Breunan, of this city, formerly secretary of the Irish National league, showed him the following telegram, which he had just received from a Chicago man : “Chicago.--Thomas Brennan, chamber of commerce, Omaha: We have strong evidence that Dr. Cronin is alive. Do Feed know any facts that would lead you to believe he would be useful as a witness for the British govern- ment? Please answer as soon as possible.” Mr. Brennan said Patrick Egan received a similar telegram, and replied that he knew of no evidence that Cronin was alive. Mr. Bren- nan says he himself knows of no such evi- dence. MR. SUTTON DENIES. Lixcorx, Nes., June 28.—John H. Sutton says he never stated that an attorney and phy- sician in Chicago said the identification of Cronin was not complete, City Officials to be Sued. CuicaGo, June 28.—A dispatch from Leaven- worth, Kar.,says: Some days ago the city marshal eeized forty-three packages from the American express company that contained beer and whiskey addressed to private resi- dences in the city. The stuff was taken from | the express company’s office before an attempt had been made to deliver it, and yesterday notice was given that all four express com- panies doing business in the city would bring suit for $50,000 each against the city marshal and police commissioners for goods that had been confiscated at various times by them. Oil Companies to Consolidate. Crxcrxxatt, On10, June 28.—It is understood here that the Kentucky oil and gas company, | of Louisville, Ky., and the Southern oil and ipe-line company, of Cincinnati, are 24 tae be ‘comnoibants, then forming ‘s gignntic company with a capital of millions of dollara. These two companies control leases on over 150,000 acres of land in one vast tract in Ten- nessee and Kentucky. Oil and in this re- fen are practically inexhaustible, and a pipe line to ey & the oil to Bowling Green is bei: built.
