Hippolyte was Bombarding Port-au- Prince. New Yorx, Aug. 9.—Purser Squire of the steamer Alvo of the Atlas line, which arrived from Hayti laet night, brings Hayti news. The Alvo leftSt. Marie 1 p.m. July 26 and arrived at Port-au-Prince at6 p.m. of the same day. When the steamer came to anchor the noise of Hippolyt's cannons could be distinctly heard firing at the town. The attacking force was at the west of the place about 2 miles away, with the aid of a powerful glass purser Squire and the officers distinctly saw Hippolyte on the seacoast. The U. 8. man of war Ossippee lay in the harbor of Port au Prince, and near her was anchored an English and a Spanish man of war. A tug-boat named the Panama, formerly be- longing in the Udited States, of about one hun- dred and twenty tons burden was there too. She carried a few heavy guns and was in Legi- time's service. During the afternoon of the 26th of July the Panama was ordered around to where she could ATTACK HIPPOLYTE’S BOMBARDING PARTY in the right flank. As soon as the little tug got within firing distance she began to blaze away. She kept it up until darkness set in. The bombarding by Hippelyte’s forces was kept up all night. The Alvo left next morning. Logitime lost two men during the fiercest of the fight. One was killed instantly, the other lived a day. Hippolyte’s losses can be reckoned in the bundreds, it is said. The gattling guns used by Hippolyte played sad havoc with the out- skirts of Port au Prince. The officers on the Ossipee said to the people on the Olna that they (the Ossipee offi- cers) had become used to the continued firing, and do not mind it a bit, A Rallroad Collision.

THE URGENT NROESSITY FOR [T—ADVICR OF ‘DRS. AGNEW AND LINCOLN—SPLINTERS OF THE SPINAL COLUMN REMOVED, RELIEVING THE PATIENT—HE THINKS THR BALL WAS EXTRACTED. ‘There was @ great aggregation of surgical talent around the bedside of Maurice Adler this morning, and it would have been hard indeed for any mortal to have ehuffied off his coil while so many skilled physicians were present to keep the breath of life in his nostrils. As predicted in Tux Stan yesterday the doo- tors had decided to perform an operation for the purpose of relieving Adler of certain dan- gerous symptoms which have appeared within the past three days and which were becoming more pronounced tee The operation was a success, although wounded man’s scatiibin for the past twenty- four hours did not give promise of any thing but collapse, 4 BAD NIGHT.

W. Bayne toa reporter for Tae Stan and in which the doctor reviews the causes which led up to THE NECESSITY FOR SURGICAL INTERVENTION. “On Tuesday last,” said Dr. Bayne, “when we held @ consultation on Adler's case symp- toms had just made their appearance which had not existed previously; they indicated unmistakably that there was pressure upon the spinal cord. These symptoms consisted of marked rigidity of the muscles of the arms and legs with contraction in the hands and feet, accompanied by muscular tremors throughout the entire system. At the consultation on Tuesday the question of an operation for the relief of this pressure was considered, but we determined before proceed- ing further to call in that eminent physician, Dr. N. 8. Lincoln, andto ask his counsel in the matter. Dr. Lincoln eed with us en- tirely as to the propriety of the course which we had adopted heretofore, and he also concurred in our opinion that there was now a necessity which demanded an operation. We then de- termined to communicate with Dr. Agnew. I wrote to him acquainting him with the later history of the case, and he telegraphed in re- ply, ‘Under present erie ee kat han without delay on Adler.’ This we had fully determined to do before we received Dr. Ag- new's tel THE OPERATION. “The operation was performed in a very ekil- fal manner by Dr. J. Ford Thompson in the presence of and assisted by Drs. N. S. Lincoln, myself (Bayne), McBlair, Wagner and Luce. The patient was placed under the influence of chloroferm by Dr. Luce, who was selected for that duty because of his very wide experience in the administration of anesthetics, and an incision about 8 inches long was made by Dr. Thompson down to the vertebr@ over the course of the wound, which was found to be entirely healed. On cutting down upon the spine it was found that the spinous proces s of the fourth cervical vertebra was fractured and had been DRIVEN AGAINST THE SPINAL CORD, which it was pressing upon and had lacerated to the extent of three-fourths of aninch. The spinous process and laming were removed and the pressure was thue taken from off the cord. It was found thdt the ball after striking the fourth cervical vertebra had glanced off, but in what direction could not be seen. Its present location isunknown. We were satisfied, though, that to search for it further would have sub- jected the patient to unnecessary danger with- out corresponding promise of benefit. “THE PATIENT BORE THE OPERATION WELL, and was in a batter condition to withstand the strain that at any time since the in- jury. What will be the outcome of the operation is something we cannot now predict, but we feel that everrthing pos- fags. Vip Soo to religve baprit A ‘er- * rom the sym and history of the case this vein ml bas never been justified until th conditions of the pressure wy © «spinal cord developed themselves early this week. ‘The actual length of time cohsymed in the operation was a ifttle less than half an hour.” “Do you anticipate that this operation will lace Adler a little nearer the highway to ealth?” asked the reporter. “I cannot say that it does,” replied the doo- tor. “It removes the cause of much of his suf- fering as far as it in our power to remove it, nd while it gives him a slight chance of recov- ery yet the prognosis is extremely unfavorable. The Cty a itself cannot, however, be other- wise than beneficial.” EASIER AFTER THE OPERATION. As soon as the operation was over and the in- cision had been carefully attended to Adler re- covered from the influence of the chloroform, He was at once gi stimulant and a few minutes later fell P His pulse was then 160, but in a little wi it dropped to 146, where it now is, After sleeping for about an hour Adler awoke. His first remark was a qasetion in which he was very much inter- ested. “Have they got the ball?” he asked. HE THINKS THE BALL Is ovr, It would not do to shock him by saying no, so the attendants assured him that the ball was out and that he was getting along splendidly. Then he asked for a drink of milk, which was given him, and he semed to be much easier than he has been for some time. By and by he will ask to see that ball and then everybody will have to | join in o chorus of white lies as to what became of it, and many a fanciful story will be told of how that deadly missile mys- teriously lost itself after its imaginary extrac- tion, A POSSIBLE CHANCE FOR RECOVERY. Dr. Wagner, who has been and still is a most faithful attendant at the wounded man’s bed- side, is by no means hopeful as to the fature. “The operation,” said he to a Star reporter, “has done no harm, and it gives Adler a chance—a possible show—for recovery. “Tam very much afraid, however, that he will never get up. It would not surprise me if within the next twenty-four hours he travels to the borderland, lingers awhile, and then goes over.” Mr. 1 L.

An Ottawa special to the New York World éays that the last page in the history of the Jesuits’ estate bill closedat12 o'clock yesterday sofar as the dominion government is con- cerned, for at noon the twelve months expired in which the federal authorities at Ottawa could exercise their prerogative by disallowing the bill, Now the war begins in dead earnest, and when it will end the most far-seeing dare not predict. Notices have been out from the executive of the Equal Rights association to rally and or- ganize to drive from power the present govern- ment of Sir Jno, Macdonald, who, it is alleged, has played into the hands of the Jesuit order. Sir John now finds nine-tenths of the Orange body arrayed against him, upon whom he al- Ways counted as his strongest supporters. The Jesuit bill was afliberal measure, passed by the liberal government of Quebec, so that in that provinee he cannot expect to capture any addi- lonal support from the Catholic element. No one comes in for @ greater share of re- Prost and censure than Lord Stanley, who had it in his power up to noon yesterday to disallow the bill without reference to his cabinet. He is vested with this prerogative and could have exercised it had he chosen so to do. A move- ment has already been started with a view to demanding his recall from Canada by the British government.
