AvrBANY, July 9.—The joint con- vention resumed its session at twelve o'clock to-day, The ballot for a suc- cossor to Conkling resulted: Conkling 31, Lapham 67; Wheelerl. Potter 50— total 149. Necessary to a choice, 76, Previous to the balloting and dur- ing the ballot long speeches were made by the stalwarts and half breeds. It was contended by the stalwarts that Messrs Lapham and Mills had been irregularly nominated; that there had been no formal caucus; that faction could not rule the party, and that the election to the senator- ship of Lapham and Mills, both of whom are now members of the lower house of congress would turn that branch ~ of congress over to the democrats; that there was not time for a special election to fill the vacancies and it was not the policy of the republicans to endanger their majority in the house of representatives. The ballot for a successor to Platt resulted : Miller 68, Wheeler 19, rs 4, Adams 3, Chapman 2, Cor- nell 1, Bliss 1, Stanier 1, Kearnan 50, Total, 149. has been increased to-day b, pibains «.; mcm’,m? most During the ballot a bitter discus- sion between the half-breeds and stal- warts was continued. Senator Rob- ertson made a speech in which he vigorously maintained that for any possible democratic majority in con- gress the stalwarts were responsible, inasmuch as they had for forty da; declined all propositions: for a settie- ment of the difficulty and had per- sistently voted to replace two men who had rendered a democratic ma- jority possible. - The convention finally adjourned till Monday. WILL PROBABLY ELECT THEM TUESDAY, AvLsaxy, N, Y., July 10.—The half breed leaders who remained in the city over Sunday itively assert that they will elect El:‘hun and Miller on Tuesday to succced Conkling and Platt. They refuse absolutely to give any reasons for their confidence, but there is evidently some hidden mean- ing behind their assertions. The stal- warts claim that their vote will remain solid and that there have been no de- fections. It is rumored that in case the joint convention does not elect to- moxrow, Conkling will return here and that if the president’'s condition conninues to improve Vice President Arthur will also come. . — Prof. Cromwell, whose gnagnificent art illustrations ate wold-famed, says that he had some time age suffered ez- eruciating torments from rheumatism, and had tried all sortsef . igifes and so-catled cures without Ho heard, however, of Bt.

A GOOD SOUND SLEEP, Washizaroy, D. C., July 10.— The presidents desiro expressed last night that his wounds might be dressed 80 that he might go to sleepy soems to have been well founded, for sleep he did, and longer at a time and with better results than at any time since his hurt, since he did not lulp awake from his first sleep unuil nearly midnight, and then did not remain awaka but little more than ax hougs Duriny this intorval he asked forw drink, which was given him, and he also took s usual nourishment. He fell asleep the second time with- out the aid of morphine, and to the surprise of his attendants did not awake until nearly 5 o'clock in the morning. This long period was not a continuous slumber but a continuation of a sleeping rest. The atient would in each half hour open his eyes for a second, and then close them again. The sleep was calm and strength-giving, No tossing about or painful circumstances marred it. M. | Cump, the ‘steward, and Mrs, Dr. Fdson were ‘with him in the early, morning hours, The latter says his sleep was like & child, They watched him closely.¢* There was no indication that he was asleep because exhausted, but to all appearances sleep came to him because it was time for sleep and because he needed it. The first one to see him this morning besides the nurses was Dr. Bliss, He TULY 11, 1 1THE OMAHA DAILY BEE. strument in the hands of Providence to effect the removal. He declares that hehad neither confidents nor abettors. The money with which he obtained the pistol he got from an Acquaintance who had once before be- friended him, on the plea that he noeded it to pay hisboard.

Ho asked for Mrs. Gartield It sho nad not re turned from a drive and he seen only Private Secrotary Brown and Dr. Bliss. Dr. Bliss said the indieations waore still encouraging and the Vice- President said ho was very glad to hear it. He sayed only a fow minutes, and returned at once to the residence of Senator Jones. THE CRITICAL PERIOD OF EIGHT DAYS PASSED Less puss had come from the wound which was also a favorable report, Dr, Bliss says that whilo there may be considerable more puss matter in the wound it must not be expected that its discharge will continue uniform To-day the dispatches are still haalthy and as long as that condition exists the process of svpperation may bo considered as favorable, There lare no indications of pyemia yet, and as long as the pus matter is healthy, and free or until it is all taken from the wound, there will be no danger from that complication. The pathe- ology of pyemia is too comprehensive I'nl'fllntilil\biml. Bliss says that now while everything is possible, no prob- able danger is to arrive from that quarter, After the first eight days in such cases the danger of secondary = hemmorrliage s usual. The eight days of the presi- dent’s illness are accomplished, still the veins are plugged, and so long as he present condition of the patient Hoes not materially deterioate, so long will the danger from the ecauso be ayoided. For this reason the physi- cians congratulate themselves and all others upon the favorable aspect of the president, and the clear action of his symptoms. In fact they aro so much encouraged by his progress during the night that they are on the “sunny side” of the case, found him much refreshed and feeling hopeful, more so than ever. The president told the doctor that he felt his stiffness and soreness more acutely to-day, because his niind wus clearer than-ever, He describod his feeling | a8 that BFw*Hilan who had his arm bro- ker* He meant, of eourse, that i was so different to_hjm.

He rather longs for this operation for he says he feels so much better after it is over, as shown by the morning bulletin. The pulse was lower and the other outside symptoms were more favorable than yesterday. PRESENTS SENT TO THE WHITE HOUSE, Among the articles sent to the white house to-day were several Hou- kah fans. They came from Philadel- rhin. They are like the common palm eaf fans, only about seven times larger. Mrs. Garfield is constantly in receipt of boquets and baskets of flowers from sympathizing friends. RENEWED HOPE, The announcement of the continued progress of the case has added new zest to the hopes that are entertained by all here. The members of the cabinet are here, some of them accom- nied by ‘their wives. Rev. Dr. E:Indorlin Bias been here and took home with him one ot the official bnl- letin, THE SRCRET OF GUITEAU’S PAPERs/ ‘WasHiNgToN, July 10.— Stitson Hutchins, editor -of i‘he Post, pub- lishes to-morrow in his paper, over his own signature, the following: ‘‘As it has been quite impossible to obtain access to the assassin Guiteau for any purpose or any pretense up to the present hour, apart from his history, and one partic letter, which was given to the publisher, only so much became known of the motives which impelled him to atwmfit his ferime as district attorney Corkhill has permit- ted to filter through his own official self, I have, however, with a proper sense of my responsibility, availed myself of a method of communication which was justified in ascertaining Guiteau's protests a sufficient justi- fication for hisattempted assassination. Guiteau does not admit that he has ever been insane or that there is any such strain in him, The only ible iation for this, his detestable crime, he repudiates /6Ty NOrveio (in | irit. & The hope of the family and cabinet is also strengthened and confidence reigns, barring, of course, the unfor- seen dangers that are possible. The president, too, looks forward to recov- ery, but knows that it will ba,a long, weary prostration. He keeps up in spirits, and though mindful of the injunction mnot to talk too much joke now _and _ then i General Swaum to-day said: *“Well, old fellow, your on the sunny side, I guess;” and the president replied, ‘‘The sunny side is a hot side, isn't it{" He was not restless during the morning but part of the time was particularly wide awake. He evinced a desire to know what was going on. His room is so situated that he does not hear the noise consequent upon putting up the the varions ventilating apparatus, but he hears every little noise throughout the room. When the noon examination took {:lwu something was said about the ulletins and_he expressed a desire to see one. Maj. Swaim let him have one, and he soon handed it back with the remark, “‘I should think the peo- ple would be tired of having me dished up for them in this way,” SCENES IN AND ABOUT THE WHITE HOUSE, The White House callers during the day werc few. Miss Mollie Garfield came down from Col. Rockwell’s at an early hour and spent to-day with her mother, and they took a short ride ride, together with the boys toward evening. Members of the cabinet re- ceived their morning bulletins as us- ual and most of them called for a mo- ment after church hours. Private Secretary Brown and the clerical force remained on duty all day, the newspapers, even, were scarce, the watchman at the door had little to do, and the soldiers on the lawn sought the shade and slept. There was noise and confusion enough, however, of a kind, about the prem- ises. In the first place some lzuum friends had sent in still another cool- ing machine. This was a natural process of air through iceand a screen l’md to be set up by way of an_illustration. This was done in Colonel Crooks’ room. Thus arrang- ed it was very nicely cooled but the agent said he could not undertake to cool the whole of the president’s room in that way, and it was at once evi- dent to all that to build ascreen about the president would run the risk of iving him the idea that they were 5uwing the winding sheots about him by degrees. Another objection to this plan, also was the necessity of refilling the ice tAnk in the room where the president was. of the time. His secretary stated this evening that the vice president would remain in the city several days, or at least until the president was de- cared out of danger. The vice- president soes but fow callers but ex ses to all who see him the hope of Garfield's recovery and refuses to talk on any other subjeet, CYRUS W, FIELD CALLS, C. W.

The district attorney to-da; - ceived the following: ‘“Hon. G.

Wiirvore, This report is to b the basis on one line of evidence to be produced at the trial. Speaking of the ball calls up the recent suggestion of a prominent Washington physician that a careful examination of every articlo of cloth- ing worn by the president and pene- trated by the ball should be made to ascortain if any portion is missing. This examination should be made with a powerful glass that will detect the absence of any fibre and show whether any scrap or patch has been carried into the wounds. Bits of cloth are much more danger- ous substances to be lodged in the body than leaden bullets.
