The doc- tors express the utmost confidence as to the success of the operation though it actually ot be told until to- night's dressing of the wound. The fact that Dr. Hamilton, considered the resident sufficiently well to allow im to leave the has had an ns- suring effect. & THR MORNING RXAMINATION of the president's- was devoted to a search for the'dause of the recent increased febrilo ma;, The re- sult was véx{'hl:n to that of two wecks ago. the secretion of the pus_waa discovered just above the twelfth rib, an, been due to ir- ritation from the splinters of the rib. In the present the icians saw nothing to™ te - trouble from the ball and, naturally looked for the trouble along the channel of the wound, THE NBW CHANNEL of the wound was found to be closing up so rapidly that it was hard to rflu It evidently would have been closed in thirty-six. hours, hence they de- cided to make a mew incision. It was proposed, howgver, to make an insertion of the eledtrical probe of Professor Taintor, who was present early this morningy.afid the probe was put in working er. The. tubes had been left'out offthe wound during the night, hence the "president slept well, and was in good condition. They did;not fear the'use of the electric probe, and hoped by it to learn more about tho cause of the wound before making a new insertion, The condi- tion and direction 6f she old channel, however, was not altogether fvorable to its insertion, and the idea was given up in the hope that it might yet be practicable tl h' the new channel, It was | DE.

This satisfiel the doctors that the main object was accomplished and no further vhought was given to the im- mediate use of the proho. A new tube was then inseried. The presi- dent rallied after the etfects of ether immediately after the couclusion of the operation aud asked Dr. Bliss what had been done. Dr. Bliss re- plied, *“Wo have ealarged the in- cision to help the flow of pus.” “Is it all right!” asked the presi- dent, ‘‘Yes, indeed,” replied Blisy, and the president secmed satistied. His pulse almost instautly fell from 193 to 106, and at noon, three hours af- ter, 1t was 100, After that hour the president slept comfortably, and his pulse and temperature soon became very satisfactory.

He took nourishment and passed the re- : | mainder of the afternoon comfortably. Becretaries Kirkwood and Lincoln, who are away, were telegraphed the assurance that all was well, ~ Blaine's cable to London added the resssur- ance, and the departure of Dr. Humil- ton for New York gave ground for in- creased confidence. Dr. Agnew told Secretary Blaine in the hearing of others that the president was doing very nioeg, fully as nicely as could be hoped, He sard the ether had made the president sick, but he had been sick from no other effect of the opera- tian and ho had entirely recovered from that, He added, too, that his pulse and temperature had subsided to his entire satisfaction. This was the testimony of'a great surgeon, added to that of his co-laborers, that all was going well. THE EVENING BULLETIN was not 80 favorable as imany hoped to find it. His pulse was higher than a few hours earhier. The temperature was too high to reassure.

THR SHOOTING OF SPOTTED TAIL, The Indian bureau to-day received official information of the shooting ot Bpotted Tail by Crow Dog, at Rose- bud Agency, on Saturday. The de- ment here believe that Spotted 'ail was killed thn;ufi‘h some ‘ildlfia - ty growing out of his expeo t«y) gWuhlngwn. He had b ordered by the Indian burean to come to Washington with an In- dian delegation to be here on the 16th, Spotted Tail was coming as a representative of the Sioux Indians, and Crow Dog was jealous of his rominence and influence. Crow og wanted to come to Washington. Spotted Tail was to have started for Yl;'nkmn to leave for Washington the very day he was killed. Crow was captain of the Indian police at Rosebud.

[ A — CLAN NA GAEL National Associated Press. A BIG WRANGLE YESTERDAY. CH1CcAGO, August 8. — This morning the committee who were appeinted to confer with leading men in the An- cient Order of Hibernians reported to the Palmer house convention of the Irish nationalists, declining to hold any communication with or recognize them officially in any wmanner. This is regarded as a backset by those in favor of the agitation policy as against armed interference with England, as a majority of the Imshmen are mem- bers of the Anciont Order of Hiber- nians, and no one can be admitted to a membership in the order unless he is a Roman Catholic. This reply is looked upon as the result of the in- fluence of the Catholic clergy. As a counter-balance to the depres- sing intelligence of the refusal of the Ancient Order of Hibernians to recognize it, the convention were encouraged this morning by the arrival of Mayor Swmith, of Denver, Col , and P. J. Sullivau, of Sun Fran- cisco, each of whom tendered the con- yention a subscription of $5,000 for furtherance of the work of the con- vention. The ofticers of the Ancient Order of Hibernians of this city stated in reply to the ofticers of the Palmer House convention that they were in no way in sympathy with any move- ment for the freedom of Ireland that did not receive the sanction of the church. A committee consisting of the presidents of the different lodges of llnberni‘m in this city sent for 1i- structions on the matter to the nation- al ofticers - Peter Kernan, of New Or- leans; M. J. Congrove, of Elmira, N. Y., and J, J. Sheahan, of Fitchburg, A reply is expected to-night, when final action will be taken on the mat- ter. Provivesce, R. 1., August 8,— The accusation made by onc Keegan Il%linl(. the &:md name and character of Geo, J. West, of this city, now in attendance as a delerato to the Chi- cago convention of Clan Na Gaels, has stirred up a general feeling of indig- nation among his friends here. Kee- an's allegations are as windy as were his voluminous writing on the situa- tion in Ireland last winter. West, instead of being a member of the Trish constabulary force in Treland, and under British pay, was & humble type setter in this city, following that vocation until he had completed his education at Brown university, Since his graduation from that institution he has practiced law in this state, meeting with con- mderable success. His father is said to have been an honest and indus- trious son of Ireland, and after his emigration to these shores to have lived a quict and honorable life. West, Jr,, has nover, 8o it is asserted by his friends, been in Ircland. Escaped Convicts Special Dispateh o Tux Bee Liscowy, Neb., August 8.—Three convicts escaped last night; 8.

Another Important Surgical Op- oration Performed Upon the President this Morning, An Incision Made Below the Twelfth Rib Which In- oreases the Flow of Pus. Bther is Administered But He Fully Recovers from the Bffects of it. The Latest Bullotins Report Him as Rrosting Comfortably. AN IMPORTANT SURGICAL OPERATION. Wasningron, August 8.—All the physicians wero at the white house before eight o'clock, somewhat earlier than usual. The morning bulletin shows a nlirht improvement over yes- terday and the general symptoms are encouraging, but not entirely satisine- tory. esterday’s proparations for the same operation are, it is belioved, to be made use of. The doctors re- mained in close consultation until 10 o'lcock, at which hour no news was received from the sick room, except a bulletin. The use to which yester- day's preparation had been put was apparent soon after 10 o'clock. ‘When Blaine came from tho doctors’ room ho was asked what was going on inside, and replied that an extra bulletin was soon to be issued, WITH FULL PARTICULARS, It was at once thought that the ball had been cut out, but such proved not to be the case. When the bulletin wass issued it was discovered that an operation had been performed. It soems that the physicians agreed that the increased temperature was due to the tardy flow of pus. Of course whenever the wound was dressed the flow appeared all right, but the indi- cations were that the flow was not stoady as shown by the impaired tem- g:nturo each night after the tube had en thoroughly cleaned, hence such suspicton that an improved aperture was mneeded. To thia end such an aperture was made this morning, THE PRESIDENT was informed that an operation was necessary, and that it was deemed best to place him under the influence of ether. He made no objection. Dr, Bliss used the knife, while Dr. Agnew assisted in holding open the wound and directing the incision. The start was made at the mouth of the incision of two weeks ago, and a new cut mado in a downard direction, and increased in size 8o that the channel is now below the twelfth rib, instead of above it. By this means the old wound channel and the region above the shattered rib has a freo chance to heal up, being now entirely separated from the ‘pus. channel. - The sresident ufmodily recovered from the effect of the ether, and asked Bliss what had been done. The doctors told him, and he expressed himself as well satisfied. He remained comfortable after the operation, At 11:30 he was doing nicely, The physicians expect this operation will l‘l’nvo met the recent trouble, but close watch is to be kept on its issue.

A special session of the sohool board was held last evening. A report was submitted by Messrs. A. J. Large. John Withnell and H, Visscher to the effoct that they had examined the Cass street school. They said the material and workmanship was a good, fair average, with the excep- tiona that the atone window sills are too narrow and do not come together with the wooden sills; that in several cases on the first floor the joists are laid in the ring of the arch- es, thus destroying the usefulness of the arches; that the flues in the base- ment are filled with brick and mortar; that the walls south of the northeast corner have bulged, owing to rain get- ting into the hollow spaces probably, and that the walls are cracked outside in several places and one place inside in a room in the second story. They did not consider the building unsafe and thought that the plastering might have plrstered np some defects. The scheme of ventilation was only partly carried. The report was accepted. The question of ‘‘accepting” the building then arose. Mr, Anderson opposed a motion to that effect and Mr. Ferguson ' favored it becnase the committee and Mr. Driscoll said the building was safe. Mr. Connoyer said that a person could s2e through cracks from the busement to the second story. In avswerto a ques- tion from the same leman, Mr. Driscoll said if tho buiiding had been completed by September 15, as the contract called for, it would not be damaged now. Mr. Driscoll went on to state that the building was one of tho best constructed in_the city, ex- cept the high school. Mr. McShane opposed the motion, which was finally put with this result: Messrs. Anderson, Connoger, McShane and President Long opposed, and Messrs. Ferguson and T‘:rlll favored. Fi- nally, on motion of Mr. Anderson, it was decided that the building commit- tee seloct two experts, Mr. Crouns- man, the contractor, two, and these four a fifth, who would form a com- mitte to estimate the damage the board sustained in the building, It was decided that the committee's ac~ tion would ba final Hon, Geo, W.

The Jury Don't Know How It Occurred, The juryin the Peterson inquest- met yesterday afternoon at the coro- ner's office, Dr. Jenson had made an examination of the body and testifie® before the coroner that blows such as the deceased had received would prob- ably result in death in the debilitatea condition he was then in. Dr, Leis- enring, who made another examina- tion of the corpse, said that he found. the same condition in ihe throat that. he had in the left lung; i e, that it was in a pustulate condition, He also said that a biow, such as given on the neck, might pro- duce death. Tt was not probable that he had any disease of the lungs before the injuries - were received, because his general condition was not such as. would indicate it. After deliberation the jury re- turned with the following verdict: *“We, the jury, find that John Peter- son came to his death from inflama- tion and congestion of the lungs and throat. The causes which produced such inflamation and congestion are unknown to the jory.” A complaint having been made against Neistrom on the charge of manslaughter, he was remanded to jail. He will be examined before Judge Beneke on this charge, The Troy, N. Y., Press says: Mr W. J. Melvin, editor Warren, Mass., Herald, was oured sf severe neuralgia, by the use of St. Jacobs Oil,
