Natiohdl Associated Pross, VICE-PRESIDENT ARTHUR, W.ASHINGTON, July 4.—Vice Presi- dent Arthur spent the entire day at the residence of Senator Jones who «ocoupies part of a large granite man- sion built some years ago by General Ben. Butler. The house has a con.- nanding position and is one of the ob- jects of interest of architectured art of the city. Mr. Jones has had ups and dewns as a mining capitalist, but it is now understood he is swimming in a fiood tide of prosperity, He cerainly Leeps housein a style whioh suggests the millionaire. Gen. Arthur received calls from a large mumber of persons and was ac- cessible to all. His manner was com- posed and dignified and showed little us of feeling of the responsibility which oppresses his spirits. Senator Jones says he is o\'arwpl::lbnad by the sense of his position awdelabors under great excitement. He said in an in- terview that this crisis was something that he had not contemplated in ac «cepting the office of viee-president. The contingency of President Garfield was 80 slight to his mind ¢that he had wever given the subject of succeeding to the presidency a serious censideration, He of course had nothing to say about his possible poMey in the event of President Garfield’s death. He would at once assume the -office, as diracted by the constitution, and would take his oath, but could not say what he would do agan execu- tive. Hespoke of the tragedy with | the decpest unfeigned horsor, and his whole bearing impressed those who led upon him as a man who rec- ized the migl sponsibility with | which lie was brought fuce to face. 10 p. m., July 4.—The physicians in attendance on the president are not alarmed at his condition and say he is no worce now than last might. All symptoms that show themselves are natural and expected. Pulse rose somewhat higher than usual, put has fallen again. It is now 124. Gen. Sherman who has been up to the sick room just told the presidents son, Harry Garfield, who is wa i anti-room, that the president better. WasHiNGTox, July 5.—4 a. m.— The fm:uidunl is apparently comforta- ble, his breathing is natural and there are no indications of an change, WAsHINGTON, July 5.—9:30 p. m, — The temperature of the president has subsided slightly since the last bulle- tin. The report that he is delirious is untrue. The attendants are not alarmed and continue hopeful, District Attorney Corkhill believes that the assassin is endeavoring to add to the mystery and to complicate mat- ters, 8o as to cover up the crime, Corkhill laid the matter before an in- isa little unfavorable formal meeting of the cabinet last night, and was instructed to proceed w investigate as fully as possiblo, A local detective and " Chief Brooks, of the secret service, were on hand and had & hasty consu)tation with Cork- | hill. Tmmediately afterwards de- tective McDavitt left the city ona| train going east. | SHINGTON, July (6, —Guiteau has | been in the city since the 4th of March. He has been noticed many times haunting the portico of the ex- ecutive mansion and entrances to the grounds. The coachman of the {:l\:nulcnl says Guitcau visited the sta- bles seyeral times and asked many questions about the horses and hours he took his driv On Friday before the commission of his murder- ous purpose (iuiteau passed through parts of the White House and asked if the president was in. On being answered iu the negative he asked if he was ont riding, and being answered in the affirmative, he slouched away in the direction of the gateway. Cook, special district attorney, was interviewed in relation to whether there were any facts to show that Guiteau had any companions or asso- ciates, said that there are not any facts, but there have been statements from persons present at the time of the shooting which, if correct, would tend to indicate two more persons 16th and Douglas Street, OMAHA, . - -« NEB were aware of his intentions. The length of time during which he ap- pears to have entertained the purpose to assassinawv the president, his prepa- | case are certainly encouraging, OMAHA, WEDNESDAY MORNING,J rations for the assassination including the purchase of a pistol of dangerous character, his preparations for flight, and leaving behind papers that might become the basis of a plea of ineanity, reckless despravity rather than the deed of an insane man, but this is to be carefully and impartially examined, and will be. The present is not the time to form any l{ufil\lh! conclusion even as to his mental condition. This can only be done under the regular manner and law, but to me it seems a startling and dangerous proposition to assuwe that when the first officer of the nation is stricken down by thehand of an assassin to say that he is insane, whether the president dies or lives, we ought to take time and patience and persistantly persue the investigation to areive at the Ultimate truth and to suspend all final judg- ment until this is done and thus to foun a carefuland justopinion. The time has come when perhaps this nation isto be saved from acts of desperadoes and villians, At the same time any really unfortunate imbecile must be treated with proper and wise consideration. One of the evidences referred to as supporting the idea of a conspiracy is | the testimony of Catter a volunteer stranger witness who was at the station, at the time of the shooting, and saw two suspicious men in ear- nest conversation in the depot just before the occurrence He stated that he went to the jail and when he got there the prisoner was lying on his bed, with the bed clothing over him he put his hand up to stroke his beard in a peculiar nm{ nervous manner, which he recognized at once.He thinks however that if he should be dressed in the same clothing he wore at the time at the shooting and the same hat it would make considerable ditference. Ramors touching, the present loca- tion of the assassinator of the Presi- dent are again rif The police au- therities are very taciturn in response to inquiries about him and when they speak, generally avoid the subject. There seems to be an impression tl he is not in the jail but has been r moved to the iron-clad Passaic, which is lying in the eastern branch. This rumor circulated yesterday was at first doubted, but the significant remarks of oneof the chiefs of police force when a reporter asked him if he was uo’, apprehensive of the lynching ot Guiteau, he answered: “They must swim the Potomoc to get him,” and the fact that fourteen wmaries had been ordered to the Passaic gives additional argument to substantiate the report that for the purpose of preventing any lynching the authorities decided to remove him from_jail to some unapproachable point. The chief of detectives, Capt. Vernon,in conversation this afternoon said we have nothing to do with it, When we turned him into jail we did all our duty called for. He is now in the bounds of the warden of the jail and under immediate orders as far.as the locality is or as to where he may be located, of Attorney-General MecVeagh. Whether heis in jail or in the Passaic 1 don’t know now WasuiNGtox, July Mrs, Gar- ield read an afterncon paper to the dent, and when she reached par xgm{»h to the effect that the at- | tewpted assasgination was arranged by | a gang of eonspirators, the president refused to belicve it. He took much interest in the reading and scemed teful for the universal sympathy said to exist for his condition, YERY ENCOURAGING, WaswiNaron, July 5.—The presi- dent’s temperature is down to 100 and his pulse is much less violent, He has taken some chicken broth and re- tained it. The symptoms apper to be in every way favorable. The whole household are greatly encouraged. WasHiNGzoN, July 5, 9:30 a. m,— Auofticial bulletin has just been issued as follows: The :rcaident has passed a comfortable night and his condition this morning is decidedly more favor- abie. There has been no vomiting since last evening at 8 o’clock and he has been able to retain the liquid nourishment administered. There is less tymponities and no abdomenal tendencies except in the wounded Ronr, RevBuRs, THE CRISIS ALMOST PASSED, Wasnizaron, D.

Whether or not there has been a marked improvement in his condition must be left for wmed- ical exaurnation. The facts in the A8t night the temperature of the patient was 101, and pulse It was difti cult to conceive how any frame could withstand such a strain, and when at length there was a slight moditication the almost superhuman consti- tution of the patient stood out as a factor that seemed equal to almost any possibility. S much was hope encouraged that the cabinet and other watchers went home confident of the president’s passing a comforfablenight, and some of them were expectant of more definite results in the right direc- tion, Themansion was so far deserted at midnight that its occupants w not more than a score, Gen, Swain and Col. Rockwell divided their per- sonal attention at the president’s bed side. He slept soundly and without restlessness, at one time remaining asleep for an hour and a half. Af daylight Dr. Bliss went to the pa- tient's bedside and found him cheer- ful as ever. His pulse was beatin, less rapidly and the temperature ha diminilllu{.

Miss Mol- lie Garfield and_James Gartiell went out with Col. Rockwell at 8 v'clock, showing the newly gleaned bope and went on ashort drive to infuse wasted strength, Surgeon - General Barnes arrived about 8 o'clock to take part in the morning medical examination. Dr. Barnos was very despondent last night and is almost elated at the favorably symptoms, Siv Edward Thornton called at 8:20 and hastoned to send the hopeful news to England. EVERYBODY AT THE WHITE HOUSE FEEL= ING HAVPY, The physicians of course expected another reaction toward night, but since the president has so far rallied from last night's unfavorable situation they do not fear the effect of another. Postmaster James and Mrs, James reached the white house at 8: and Secretary Kirkwood entered as the morning bulletin was being pasted in the carridor. “‘Oh, T am so glad,” was his exclamation, and every one heard him said, “‘amen,” Nexteame Attorney- General MacVeagh and his wife, The, head of the judiciary department wore a confident smile as h'a passed and he saw him at a great disadvan- | the stairs.

Dr. Woodward said the patient had made a wonder- ful improvement during the ni He said the president was doing r markably well. Surgeon General Barnes that he * almost lost heart last night, but that he felt greatly encouraged thismorning. Dr, Bliss was all smiles. He said there had been no more fa- vorable pericd in the history of the president’s case than the present. The cabinet and pliyaicans are greatly annoyed by some published report as to the president having had convulsions last evening and as to his delirium. He has had nothingin any way resembling convulsions and only aslight touch of delirium, and that was from the effect of medicine rather than from the injury. The pains in the president’s feet and legs, and the present condition of the president give rise to renewed talk about probing for the ball. The physicians, however, do notintend to do anything in this direction unl the patie gnins very much in strength, The continued increase of favorable symp- toms adds foree to thelopinion recently advanced by a well known surgeon here, not connected with the case. Ho seys the ball penetrated in the right place and started in the right di- rection to penetrate the li The has been nothing, however, to show that the bullet has not turned aside, Might it not then be lodged in the large muscles of the back. If so the muscles may have closed over the ball, and this might cause the report- ed pains in the president’s feet and logs. If these are the circumstances the president’s condition is an indica- tion of a possibility of a long contin- ued period of uncertainty as to the final result, 11;30 a. m.~The president has none of the unfavorable symptoms that were evident at this time yesterday, and it isjhoped that a repetition of the severe reaction of last evening may be avoided, 12 1, —The pain m the president's said rogion Pulse 114 ; temperature 100 ; | 196t and legs is subsiding.

He had camo to town yesterday and had been look- ing for Blame all night, *“What do you want of him?” he was asked. “I have been specially ordained,” was the reply, “to shoot him; and here is the gun to do it with,” The visitor was informed that Blaine would surely be in soon, and while the stranger was making up i mind to wait for Blaine, the offi- cér'made arrangements to capture the lunatic, for such he certainly was.

VICE-PRESIDENT ARTHUR AT THE WHITE HOUSE. Wasnixaroy, July 5.--Vice-Presi- dent Arthur stayed at the White House about half an hour, but it thought the president should not s him or any one but his nurses till he is stronger. The president’s condition grows more and more favorable. The vice-president looks careworn but walked ercctly and seemed calm and collected, THE NAME OF THE SUPPOSED PLICE OF GUITEAU KNOWN. The name of the person seen at the depot with Guiteau by the president is known. He has left Washington, and government officers are m this city m search of him. Collector Mer- ritt, who has some knowledge of these movements, says the search for the individuals does not necessarily form the belief of a conspiracy, but Guiteau may have informed his supposed companion of his intentions. There are other unpublished facts which bear this out. THE PR ACCOM= WasHiNGroN, July b.—Private retary Browne is responsible for the statement that the president is now confident of his recovery. He has never expressed a loss of “hope in this direction, but has always determined to pull through. An expression of personal confidence, however, is a happy sign " to his attendants, and adds new hope. For the first time t | since the shooting the president, this | afternoon, saw his son James, He shook hands firmly and asswred him ho was feeling much botter and GARFIELD HAPPY OVER PROVED CONDITION, Wastixaron, July 5.—The presi- dent's first ejaculation this morning was to an attendant: “Keep heart, 1 have not yet lost min The presi- dent’s wound has begun to adhere, Mrs. Garfield is radiant Jover the in- creased prospects of his recovery. LARGE NUMBERS OF CALLERS AT WHITE HOUS There has been a la number of callers at the white house to-day than yesterday, owing, perhaps, in a measure, to a feeling that the intru- sion was more permissible under the improved condition of the president, All callers were filled with hope, but at the same time the dangers yet to be encountered are not lost sight of, BREAKING TH WH TO HI3 SONS, CrevELAND, July 6, —Garfield's sons, Trving, aged 7, and Abram, aged 9, were kept in ignorance of their fath- er's state until Sunday, when the news was brcken to Irving, who hore it manfully and dried the fast-Howing tears lest his younger brother, Abram, should discover his symptoms of grief. who had HIS M- But Abram, no- ticed the large number of telegrams constantly coming from Washington, was not to be kept in orance The Monday news was broken to him, and it was pathetic to see the eagerness with which the boys awaited the arrival of messages from the white house. Realizing that the best thing for them was to remain in Mentor, they have not asked to be taken to Washington. Garfield's mother, who was stopping at Solon, Ohio, with her daughter, Mrs, Larra- bee, when the the news was broken to her, is now with another daughter, Mus, Trowbridge, also at Solon. Postmaster Sherwin, of Cleveland, receives frequent dispatches from 0.

Guiteau, assassin, capital prison, Washington, D, C. The post mark shows that the letter was mailed at Boston, A dark line drawn around the edges of the envel- ope with a pen, giving it the appearance of mourning, The money order investigation in the post office department is made for the pur- pose of ascertaining whether or not Guitean received any money orders as he says he expected. Tt resulted in the discovery that Guiteau had had one money order cashed in his proper name, This order was issued by the New York City post office on the 20th day of March, to C. A, Bryan, and in favor of Chas, Guiteau, The order was for 825, and was cashed in Washington on the 20th of March, Guiteau himself drawing the inoney. The New York city postoftice authorities have been informed of the order and will proceed to tind out who Chas. A. Bryan is and for what pur- pose he was sending Guiteau money, As Guiteau was applying fora good appointment in the latter part of March, it is hardly to be supposed he had then conceiyed the idea of assas- sinating the president. A registered letter was received,addressed to Chas, F. Gainter at this post oftice within the last few weeks and delivered, With, the exception of the money or- der from Bryan, this registered letter, which contauned money, had the name nearest to that of Guiteau which can be found on the records, Rev. Rush A. Shippen, pastor of All Soul's church here, and a former fellow boarder of Guiteau, speaks as follows: ‘T sat at the end of the table and he sat at my right, and very often wo were alone at the breakfast table, both of us being early risers, He roomed upon the same floor with me. His movements at the table were bent on helping himself and he never assisted the ladies around him. One ot the ladies once remarked that she believed in Conkling, when Guitean spoke up andsmd: “Tam glad to hear you say 80, for 1 believe in him, too.” He never said anything to me in re- lation to the consulship.
