WasHINGTON, August 2.—Another good night has been followed by a fa- vorable morning in the president’s case, and he is now well ‘started on another day that bids fair to be one of steady improvement. Last night's rest had a marked effect upon the general appearance of the patient. One of the best signs to-day is the remarkable steadiness and distinctness of the president’s pulse. It beats with the firmness and regularity of a man in good health. The president had for breakfaat a piece of rare steak and some toast. e relished it thoroughly. Afterwards he was raised up in bed, as he has been for several days. He remained in this position _all morning. There have been no distinguished callers to-day. Dr. Agnew remains until to-morrow. DOING VERY WELL. WasHINGTON, August 2.—Dr. Ag- new stated to a friend that the presi- dent was certainly doing very well indeed. « There was no_feature of the case they could wish to havain}pmved. The present progress was in every way satisfactory. The president had taken nourishment three times up to 2:30. Some newspapers headings were allowed to be read to him. Care is, however, exercised that nothing is allowed to reach his ears in the way of news which might cause any ex- citement or demand an exercise of mind. He is now able to use his arms to lift himself about a little, and can draw up his legs without suffer- ing any pain. He makes no com- plaint of any pain about the back, al- though all the lower part of the body is stiff. THE PRESIDENT ate an adequate supper and after the dressing of the wound went to sleep. At 9 p. m. his pulse was below 100 and other indications correspondingly moaerated. Since that hour he has slept comfortably and rested as easily as in health. He expresses complete satisfaction with its progress, Dr. Agnew returnsto Philadelphia to- morrow and Dr. Hamilton will come on from New York to-morrow even- ing. All of the physicians assure the members of the cabinet that the presi- dent is doing as well as they could wish. Secretary Lincoln returns from Rye Beach to-morrow. Postmaster Gen- eral James and Attorney Genural McVeagh will remain here all sum- mer. Mrs. Garfield is confident in the ability of her husband to be about in a month. Dr. Bliss said the presi- dent ought to be able to attend to executive business in a few weeks, DR, BLISS INTERVIEWED, WasHINGTON, August 2.—Dr. Bliss was asked to-might in regard to the course of the ball through the president. “We know where the ball en- tered; that it shattersd a rib; that it distnrbed the liver, either by shock or perforation, and that it lodged in the interior wall ‘of the abdomen.

Whether this clue is connected with the Peoria branch of the case can not be ascertained. Officers of the department of justice refuse to disclose any particulars at present in regard to the arrest of Crowe in Peoria.

It is impossible to ring up the central office before 8 o’clock m tho morning. My child was sick this morning and I wished to tele- phone my physician before & “}dock, when he begins to make his calls: T couldn’t rouse them up at the central office and consequently had to watch my opportunity to catch the doctor.

To the Editor of The Bee, OmAHA, August 2,—About one year and a half ago council granted Mr. Kountzo the privilege of narrowing Tenth street, from Pierce south, to fifty foet. was to plant the remaining twenty-five foot upon either side with shade trees, nicely sod the whole and make a beau- tiful avenue of it. Since the permis- sion has been granted three tree plant- ing seasons have passed and not a sin- glo tree is yet, planted, and instead of being sodded only one side of the street is seeded to grass. Whose duty is it to sce that the contract is carried out? Tomy mind the street shouldn't be left a barren waste. Sourn OMAHA. In consideration of thws he PUBLIC DONATIONS, To the Editor of The Bee, OmanA, August 2,—One of the most pernicious influences of public ate enterprise. Not even a street car line can be built iy this city until proporty owners aro ready to come down with enough money to build the road, Once built it goes under the Marsh admin- wtration. Indeed, it becomes anether lever in favor of this street car monop- oly. The sooner an injunction is is- sued against the extension of the pres ent lines under the old charter, the better for the people's interest. No one will object to Capt Marsh, as Capt. Marsh, building to the park or any other place, but for Capt Marsh to assume to work under the old char- ter is decidedly thin, If a judgment for damages is not ood against the old Omaha Street Jar company because said company has become private pmpertg by foreclosure, &c. why should the monopoly franchise be good in all the streets, to say nothing of other legal deficiencies. The same legislature that guve the street car franchise, gave another company a similar exclusive franchise for manufacturing, &e. No one supposes the latter company could exclude all other interests, yet it would be as reasonable as to presume that a street car line can only be built where one man dictates. Shall citi- zens be compelled to pay that man $3000 a mile for every street the road oceupies, under the delusion that nothing else is possble. Oh, whare is Red Eyed Jonick!

To Begin "Pumping Water This Evening. The Water Company is ready to begin pumping from the river this evening, The brick about the boiler is completely dried, and everything elso is in readiness for immediate action, However it is not likely that tho pumping will begin before the latter end of the week, owing to the fact the Mr. Cook, of Toledo, the consulting engineer, has expressed a wish to be present at the moment operations are begun, Chief Engineer Davis says that a delay of a couple of days will be made on this account, but at the end of that time work will be commenced. The water will be pumped immediate- ly into an immense basin that is now ready and as it settles rapidly it will be ready for domestic purposes in a very short time, Specimens of Missouri river water are on exhibition at the compa- ny's office, and if the results in the regular supply are the same they will be eminently satisfactory.
