The Ciroumstance the Most Unprecedented One in the History of the Case. The Physiciane Revort the Wound Looking Well at the Evening Examination It Continues to Discharge a Satisfactory Quantity of Pus During the Day. At Midnight the President is Reported as Resting Basily, Supreme Court Offices to be Closed To-Morrow in Honor of Justice Clifford. Miscellaneous Notes From the Na~ tional Capitol. FEELS ALL RIGHT ONCE MORE ‘WasHiNeToN, July 27.—Crump, the presidents nurse, says the presi- dent slept like a baby last night. He told me this morning. He said that he began to feel like a man once more. He is mighty weak yet but a few nights like last night will set him on the right track. There are no indica- tions of an approaching chill and the flow of pus is full and natural. Dr. Agnew leaves for Philadelphia this morning and Dr. Hamilton will prob- ably not return until to-morrow morn- ing. i RAPIDLY IMPROVING, WasiNatoN, July 27.—The presi- dent’s case has made continued pro- gress in the right direction ever since the removal of the particles of shat- tered ribs. In fact the best progress made in any twenty-four hours since the shooting has been made to-day, and at 11 to-night he wa# authori- tively declared to be in a more fayor- able condition than at any time since the occurence. This evening the ex- amination and dressing of the wound added greatly to the emcouragment the physicans who were not slow to show increased hope. TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CABINET at their usual evening hour at the White House, Secretary Blaine, as he was about to go home, said that the doctors evidently thought the crisis past, and, as usual in the history of such cases, there would be a steady improvement, unchecked, except by some unexpected complication that may arise. THE PHYSICIANS will be very slow to pronounce the president out of danger, for experi- ence in the case has taught them that danger may arise at short notice. The fact is, they will be surprised if other complications may yet arise to retard the patient’s progress, but their suc- cessful treatment of those just past will do much toward nerving them for a canfident struggle with those to come. This has been the only day the president has passed without a febrile rise, His temperature and respiration have remaiucd normal, and his pulse was lower at 11 p. m., than at any time since morning. Such a state of affairs has had the effect to leave the White House almost deserted and after the evening bulletin was posted scarce a caller appeared. The president took a quantity of beef tea for supper and after the usual anodyne fell asleep, continuing to rest peacefully until 11 . m. Then he awoke for a moment ut soon dosed off again. At that hour his pulse was 91, temperature 5, respiration normal. COL. ROCHWELLy o who had watched him while asleep this evening, says he sleeps without discomfort and each nap seemed to make him feel stronger. DR, HAMILTON was met by Dr, Bliss at the 10 p. m, train from New York and on hearing the condition of the President thought it unnecessary to sec him and went directly to his hotel. He refused to be interviewed, DR, BLISS at 10:30 p. m. said the President was better now than since the shooting; that he was sleeping well and there was no indication of a febrile rise, MRS, GARFIELD, When asked to-day what truth there was in the statement that Mrs. Garfield had suffered extremely from the effect of the strain on her during the last few days, Dr. Boynton, while admitting that” she had been anxious, said there was no foundation for the report that she was ill. *In fact,’ continued the doctor, ‘‘Mrs. Garfield is feeling brighter and in better spirits to-day than since she was sick. Juu may say she went to ride and re- turned feeling refreshed, and that her husband’s condition is very en- couraging.” TO MINISTER LOWELL, Wasmiserox, July 27.—The fol- lowing was sent from the White House to-night: Lowell, Minister, London: At 11 . m. the president's physicians give the most favorable reports There is & conspiouous improvement in his digestion and in the restfulness of his sleep. We are by no means relieved from anxiety, but are growing more hopeful. (Signed.) Braixe, Sec’y. Dispatches of the same import were sent to Vice President Arthur and others to-night. s WEDNESDAY'S BULLETINS. WasHiNgToN, July 27.—9 a. m.— The following bulletin, just issued, gives the president’s condition at the morning examination: The president slent peacefully last night from 8 un- til 5, with a single break of short du- ration at 11 o'clock.

OFFICIAL BULLETIN, WasHiNaroN, July 27—1 p. m.— The president’s wound was dressed after the morning bulletin was issued. The wound looks well and the pus, which is healthy, was discharged free- ly. Since then he has rested quietly and takes his nourishment rcnd‘fiy.llld without gastric disturbances His pulse is 90, temperature 98.4, respira- tin(n 18, £ % Signed . W. Buriss, 4 J. N. Barnes, J. J. WooDWARD, Ropr. REYBURN. OFFICIAL. WasniNgroN, July 27.—7 p. m.— The president is still resting quietly. He has been able to take more nour- ishment to-day than for several days past and at the present hour has had no febrile rise of temperature. His wound has just been dressed. Tt looks well and has continued to dis- charge healthy pus in sufficient quan- tity during the day. Hispulse is now 96, temperature 90, respiration 0. § D. W. Buss, J.K. BArNEs. J. J. WooDWARD, Ros'r REYBURN. July 27.—9p. m,—The president’s condition continues to improve and the physicians are more and more en- couraged. He has slept since 7 p. m. almost continually, July 27—12 m.—There has been no febrilerise in the president’s symp- toms to-night, vp to this hour, an un- precedented event in the history of the case. He has slept beautifully since 7 p. m., and bids fair to finish the niggt in the same happy manner. -(Signed) GUITEAU. NO SYMPATHY FELT FOR HIM. Guiteau is siill confined in his isolated cell. He has not even asked for 2 lawyer. No callers at the jail have manifested a kindly interest in the assassin, and it is difficult to say how any legal defence will be provided. CAPITOL CULLINGS.

Sax Francisco, July 27,—The Richmond gets all the present ore body by a decision of Judge Rives The decision was announced to-day. The Albion shareholders have a tel- egram saying that the eecision of Judge Reeves is not conclusive, as will be shown when taken to the su- preme court. It is clauned that the Albion still has an advantage under the injunction issued to-day, An in- vestigation to-day appears to give warrant for the charges brought against Superintendent Dodge by Congressman Page in the matter of the purchase of low grade ore below the government standard, though the net result was brought within the le- gal allo wance for wastage, Resigned.

LoNpoX, July 27.—The Irish land bill having safely passed through the committee of the whole, it will not come up for the formality of its third reading and final passage by the house of commons. Its passage i8 assured but when the third reading and final eb{‘:he house of commons is moved, rd Randolph Churchill, member for Woodstock, intends to make a speech in denunciatian of the whole measure, which he will do, moving the adoption of a resolution setting forth that in the house the original bill was the result of -revolutionary agitation, It en- courages the republication of con- tracts and just® liabilities; jt cn- dangered individual liberty. and diminished the security of Ty, and that while it would not Smerease the prosperity of Ireland, it would endanger unity between Ireland and England, and deaw in its train many great ovils, “There is no probubility that the house will adopt Lord Churchill’s resolution, and it is doubt- ful if any debate will be had, 1Tt is thought, however, that Mr. @Gladstone may think it worth while to reply, and take the opportunity of delivering a final defense of his great measure, THE CHINESE LOANS.

LoxvoN, July 27.—The Ameeer has demanded that Ayoob Kuhn retire with his forces to a greater distance from Candahar before he will consent to continue further pending negotia- tions for peace. Ayoob’s army is un- doubtedly weak, and that is ostensibly the reason for his willingness to re- treat. His partisans are stiring very actively, however, in the hill country, and the Ameer does not care to have Ayoob Kahn’s army in close prox- imity to the city and especially as many delays may occur in treaty mak- ing. EMIGRATION TO THE UNITED STATES, LoxpoN, July 27.—A Berlin dis- patch says: Emigration from Bremen shows that 77,303 persons left there for America during the first half of the year 1881, It would not be as- tonishing if, by the end of the present year, Germany lost 333,000 subjoects.

B A Letter From O'Donovan Rossa: National Associated Press. New York, July 27.—J. O'Dono- van Rossa, who is charged with being implicated in the shipping of barrels containing dynamite to English ports by steamers from this country, has furnished the following letter for pub- lication: “My name has been used in con- nection with the shipment of infernal machines on some of the steamers leaving this port, the English papers calling on the American government to suppress such actions on_the part of the Fenians in New York. They purport to have seized barrels of ce- ment containing machines charged with dynamite, and that my name was found on papers there- in, How absurd! If we sent such, more caution would have been used. My printed circular would not have been enclosed as an advertisement, and moreover if guch were sent by the skirmishing fiend, they would not be sent to blow up steamers leaving our ports and carry- ing our dearest friends, - The Eighth Victim Within Two ‘Weeks, National Asseciated Prens.

THE WHY AND WHEREFORE No Sprinkling to be Done Un. til Pumping Begins, It is very doubtful indeed if any streot sprinkling will be done in this city before the water works company has begun to pump from the river. This is the opinion of Mayor Boyd, and he speaks with a knowledge of what he is talking about. Bids to sprinkle Farnham and the intersect« ing street to the alloys upon either side, and Douglas street under the new contract were to have been open- ed on last Saturday. None were opened then for the very vood reason that not were received. This second application for bids in no way differed from the first and what was to be gained by advertising a second time is not apparent to finite minds. The persons who keep an assortment of sprinkling apparatus on hand are necessarily limited. Fow persons are disposed to go to the expense of getting carts and horses and then stand their chances of receiving the contract. It is expected that the work can be done much cheaper when the water can be secured from the water company maing and it is to be hoped this will prove to be the case as a recompense to the people for what they have en- dured from dust while the misunder- standing has existed.
