He has no fear that it would injure him to move. The doctors will take no risk in the matter, and will let him stay where ho is until it will be perfect fo to make the change. General Swaim thinksy the removal would be possible within a weekor ten duys. There is no spocial object in it other | than to accomplish the advantage of all convalescents being placed amid new scenes, It is not on- account of any existing malaria trouble, That subject is boing discussed of course. September is a bad month in Wash- ington and if hard rains should come the prosident might be effected. Long Branch air would probably be good for Lim Any change might be beneficial. The only objection to Long. Branch is the ibility of severe coast storms. Nothing has beensdecided. The president will bo ready For con- siderable moving in a week if im- provement continues.

General Swalad"said the president’s face looked very natural now. The glandular swelling seemed almost gone, and no further trouble was ex- pected from that source, Later to-night, Dr. Reyburn, in speaking of the slow granulation of the wound, said that where two sup- purating surfaces existed in a patient me time, that the nearest to the trunk arteries would heal first. Hence the turn of the old wound would come after the gland was cur ARTHUR TO BE CALLED UPON. New Youx, September 2.—Speetal dispatches from Washington say that the cabinet has had no word of con- sultation as to the policy to be pur- sucd in the matter of the presinent’s inability, but the subject has been reely and frequently talked of. Win- dom says that the president 1 get along at present without executive in- terference, but some of the other de- partments are embarrassed in many things, He wotld himself prefer to confer with the president before act- ing. Of Arthur, he says, that there is no danger of anything the vice pres- ident would do. His only aim would beto do as nearly as possible what President Garfield would do_were he able to give matters of business his personal attention, There is reason to believe that as soon as the president is able to be moved, one of the physicians, prob- ably Dr., Bliss, will be requested to broach the subject. He will say to the president that the doctors have decided that he should be allowed two or three months’ uninterrupted con- valescence, during which time his mind should be relieved of all cares; that this time will at least elapse be- fore he can safely assume the duties of his oftice, and that in the mean- time it has been sucgested that the vice-president be asked to assume the responsibility of the executive office.

One hundred men are still on watch to-day for fear that they may again break out, as the fire is still smouldering and no ramn is now falling. About forty oil rigs were burned and 10,000 bar- rels of oil destroyed. Several of the large 25,000 barrel tanks were in im- minent danger at one time, but the labor of 1,000 men who worked all day and night saved them. One thousand wells had shut down for the lack of water to run the en- gines, no rains having fallen until last night for several weeks.

DREADED DROUGHT. Gloomy Reports From a Large Number of States. Grass and Crops Burned Up and Water Gone. Stock Dying in Illinois and In- diana by Thousands, Grent Distross Prevailing Among Farmers. | | National Associated Press Ciicaco, Soptomber 2. Dispatchos from the southern part of the state | all agree that a dvought so long con tinued and with such diro consequen cos as attends the present one has never betore heen known in the state, Pastures are drying up, wells and cistorns have gone dry and ponds and crecks are being drawn upon not only for stock, but for family use. The farmers throughout Egypt are greatly discouraged as they sco wheat sowing time approaching, and the ma- jority of them without afurrow turned for the crop. It is stated by some farmers that the fall sowing will not be much more than_one-tenth of the usual average. When the harvest was over it was too dry and hard to commence plowing for wheat. They have been waiting ever since for rain and they are waiting still, The scarcity of feed incident to this drought is beginning to be a sor- ious question with farmers who own much or even little stock. It will bo almost impossible for the fall pastur- age to afford any relief as without steady and copious rains there will be no grass and it is unlikely that there will be rain, The prica of all kinds of foed has advanced so materially that farmers cannot but it. The stock, therefore must perish unless events take a very sudden turn. Very many small f rs in southern Iilinois will suffer during the coming winter for the bare necessities of life. Caie September 2.--The 11li- nois Uentral railvond received dis- patches to-day announcing a long needed fall of rain along its line. A heavy rain prevailed in Contral Towa and "~ refreshing showers occurred around Springfield and Clinton. The corn will be benefitted somewhat, CiNeinNaTi, September 2, —The light local rains which have visited many parts of the west and ‘outh the last two days was too late for most of the crops but have done good in fur- nishing water for the stock and re- plenishing the dried up streams. PENNSYLVANIA. f © Prrissure, Pai; Septembcr 2, — The long drought, which threatened to dry up the water courses completely and wholly destroy the crops of farm- ers, has apparently been ended to- day. Last night a large part of east- ern Ohio and western Pennsylvania was visited by refreshing showers, and to-day the telegrams reports steady rains in some districts which have suffered most severely. Tt is thought that the rain will end the forest fires, which have occasioned much loss in the timber regions, IN THE EMPIRE STATE, New York, September 2,— Local promises of ram to-day have been dis appomntment and 1o’ ram has fallen except in drops. Reports from all sections ingicate continued fair and warm weather with the thermometer from four to twelve d 8 low Reports from states bordering on the lakes show only local rains, mostly very light. To-morrow’s indications give a promise ot local rains along the north Atlantic and New England coasts. All promise to be light, The barometer to-night is high in New Jersey, but is regarded as indicating a storm of wind, which will probably not bo accompanied by rain of any value to the crop. Rocuester,'September 2, — A short, sharp thunder shower last night gave 810 of an inch of rain. The grass and pastures are burned up, most of the potatoes are ploughed in and win- ter wheat will be sown. Fruit is suf- fering greatly and corn is a failu Rain will now be too late to be use ful. MICHIGAN, Deriorr, September 2, — The drought continues. Corn is-only half a crop, Potatoes are almost baked in the ground. Forest fires are doing much damage, but the losses have been exaggerated, The local | raing of Tucsday night happened particularly at . the right time and was the heaviest. KANSAS, Kansas Ciry, September 2, - Kan- sas and western Missouri are now en- Joying fine rains after a drouth throughout the greater part of the ter- ritory named of two months, Cc and other crops were seriously da aged by the lack of rain and grazing lands parched. The rains of the pres ent week, however, will prove of great benefit to vastures and make fine late grazing, The corn crop is likely to yield better in Kansas than was an- ticipated a fow days ago. There will be over half a crop, The yield is estimated at 100,000,000 bushels, KENTUCKY, LouvisviLLe, September 2, Rain has not fallen here for six weeks, The heat has been more intense than ever known in August, Great suffering is | reported from the farms in many | parts of the state.
