NEB ARTHUR'S ANACONDA About to Swallow the Greenback Party, By Rolling Rolly-Poly Davis |p Into the Oabinet And Fitting His Senatorial Shoes on a Stalwart Re- publican, Isham G. Harris Ventilates His Views on the Presidency of the Senate. The Extra Session to be Bhort, Sharp and Deoisive CABINET GOSSIP, Wasuinaron, October 1. —The lat- est cabinet gossip puts Senator Lap- ham and David Davis in the cabinet, to make vacancies in the senate for Conkling and Lincoln, by the appoint- ment of governors of their states. Benjamin Harris Brewster, ot Phila- delphia, is thought to be the probable successor to Attorney General Mac- Veagh. CONKLING'S OPPORTUNITY. The absence of the. president in New York has left the house on the hill in a deserted state. When he re- turns we may expect to know more about the cabinet, as perhaps Mr. Arthur may also. Nothing is posi- tively known here, though the usual rumors are afloat. If President Ar- thur has selected anybody, he is more close-mouthed than any one con- nected with the former administra- tion. It is rumored here to-day that Judge Lapham will be tendered a cab- inet position. This n is an al- leged scheme to get ham out of Conkling’'s way for the senate, to which vacancy Governor Cornell would immediately appoint. Mr. Conk- ling. This is a good scheme, if it is made to work. It would give the Ar- thur administration an able and trust- ed leader on the floor of the senate. ‘With regard to the cabinet, the Star this evening has the following: ‘The Star reporter to-day learned from the very best authority that there is not a member of the cabinet who expects to be in President Arthur's cabinet. They all think and expect that Presi- dent Arthur will soon choose an en- tirely new cabinet. It is stated on icmd authority that even Secretary incoln ] WILL NOT REMAIN He has been the { ,member of e cobluet spokell ol as hikely v hold over. The members of the cab- inet have gone away. They would not have left had they not known that President Arthur had decided upon a cabinet of his own. They will not return before any changes are made. This is in accordance with former dispatches, and authority or not, is the prevailing idea here. SWAIM WILL NOT RESIGN, General Swaim says he has received several flattering offers to enter into private business, but has not seriously considered them. He has no idea of resigning the office of judge advocate generul of the army. His relations with President Arthur have always been of the pleasantest character, and he could not tell how or where the idea originated that he intended to resign. General Swaim further stated that he expected to_join his family at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, about the middle of nexi week, and on his way out would pay a visit to Mrs, Garfield and family at Mentor. THE PRESIDENT PRO TEM, Senator Harris, of Tennessee, gives the facts as to the failure to elect a president pro tem of the senate last spring. e says: ‘It was reported (whether true or not, I don’t i‘x’mw} that the republican senators had in caucus determined, when we had a majority because of the resignation of Messrs Conkling and Platt, that they would vote for me, or consent to my election as president pro tem of the senate. At all events I was ap- proached by a number of senators, E CABINET. among whom were democrats and republicans, with the proposition to elect me presi- dent pro tem. 1 said to the demo- crats that Mr, Bayard being the senior senator of the then majority party, was, by the uniform usages of the sen- ate, entitled to the position, and that before any action could be taken in the premises I would consult Senator Bayard, as I recognized and respected his rights in the matter. 1 went to Senator Bayard and told him that I had been approached by a number of senators with the proposition to make me president pro tem of the senate, but that I recogrized his rights as the senior democratic member, and would not allow my name to be used in that connection except with his full consent and approval. He said to me: ‘I must think abous it before I can give a definite answer,’ to which Iresponded, ‘Very well, thtnk of it,' and from that time to this the subject has not been mentioned between us. But the chair was never, as some have thought, vacated, therefore the right to elect never devolved on the senate.” In response to the question as to what the country may expect from President Arthur's administration, Senator Harris says : “He is a bold, frank man, of decided opinions, and has courage envugh to act upon his convictions, He is an ultra republican, who will ad- minister the government upon repub- lican principles, but will mislead or deceive no one by any act or utterance of his. The great interests of the country are and will be safe under his administration as they could be under the administration of any republican. Senator Harris and President Ar- thur are warm personal friends, the former having often been a guest at Arthur's home in New York, THE RXTRA SESSION. Senator Jones, of Florida, said this evening when asked, ‘Do you think the extra ression will be a long one?” “Not more than two weeks, people don’t want any law-making or politios just now.” *Is a deadlock mb.hlef" “I don’t think so." “Will the democrats, in your opinion, concur in the reported views of Sen- ator Beck on the election of a presi- dent of the senate!” ‘“‘Since Senator Bock was reported to have said that democrats could not afford to elect one of their number president of the senate, I have seen him and he has denied that such was opin- ion. My own opinion. is that the constitution does not recognizo parties or factions, but it prescribes that the man who receives the greatest num- ber of votes is the only one legally elected.” “Do you expect that the democrats, if they electone of their party as president of the senate, will attempt to reorganize the senate?” ““The senate is organized as far as the committees are concerned. As to what the next business may be 1 do not care to express an opinion. There may be, however, a question as to the admittance of senators after the presi- dent is elected, a question perhaps of privilege, but I do not want to put myself on reccrd without studying the situation a little closer. When the emergency arises then it will be time enough to meet it. There were about forty senators in Cleveland, many of whom I conversed with about the po- litical situation and extra session. The general belief was that the session would last only about a week and that there would be no deadlock.” ‘‘Don't you think the democrats will elect a president of the senate?” “It ismy belief that they will. In doing so they will oniy fulfill the re- quirements of the constitution. It is very explicit in regard to such a situ- ation as is now presented, and I think the democrats would violate their duty if they did otherwise. Sen- ator Bayard will be the man.” ‘“What will be the next business?’ “That is hard to say. Probably the swearing in of the new senators. The other business, I expect, will be the confirmation of a few appoint- ments.” STAR ROUTE INDICTMENTS, WasHINGTON, October 2.—One of the attorneys prosecuting the star route cases, who understands thor- oughly the results of the jury trials in the district for two years, said to-day: “‘There has never been any doubt about obtaining indictments in the star route cases.

SEARCH FOR THE BULLET Official Report of the Autopsy on the Body of the Late President. PHILADELPHIA, October 1.—The October issue of The American Jour- nal of Medical Sciences contains the following official report of the autopsy of President Garfield, prepared by surgeons in charge: Oticial record of the post mortem examination of the body of President James A, Garfield, made September 20, 1881, commenced at 4:30 p. m., eighteen hours afterdeath, at Franck- lyn cottage, Elberon, N. J. Present and assisting Dr. D, W, Bliss, Sur- eon General J. N. Barns, United tates army; Surgeon J. J. Wood- ward, United States army; Dr. Rob- ert Reybum, Dr. Frank é Hanmnilton, Dr. D. Hayes Agnew, Dr, Andrew H. Smith, of Elberon and New York, and Acting Assistant Surgeon D, F, Lamb, of the army medical museum, Washington, Before commencing the examination a consultation was held by the physicians n a room ad- joining that in which the body lay, and it was unanimousl agreed that the dissection should be made by T, Lamb aud that Surgeon Woodward should record observations made., It was further unanimously agreed that the cranium should not be opened. Sur- geon Woodward then proposed that the examination should be conducted as follows: That the body should be viewed externally, andany morbid ap- pearance existing recorded, that a cather should then be passed into the wound, as was done during hfe to wash it out, for the purpcse of assist- ing to find the position of the bullet; that a long incision should then be made from the superior extremity of the sternum to the pubis, and this crossed by a transverse one just below the umbilicug; that the abdominal flaps thus wade should then be turned back and the abdominal viscera ex- amined; that after the abdominal cay- ity was opened the position of the bul- let should be ascertained, if possible, before making any further incision, and that finally the thoracic yiscera e | than the limbs, en, it is said, on | cision crossin, t the proceeding was | low the umbi should be This order of ure was unanimously to. The examination was then proceeded with and the foll, wing ex- ternal appearances weré _ bserved: The body was consideral fnaciated but the face wAmnoh " m\';tag presery 'tive flui had been injected by the ¢ balmer a few hours before, int:.;h. lu‘zt }femm\rl artery.

The inter surface of the body presented no ab- normal appearances and there was no eochymosis or other discoloration of any part of the front of the abdomen, Just below the right ear, and a little behind it, thore was an oval ulcerated opening, about half an inch in diame- ter, from which some sanious pus was escaping, but no tumefaction could be observed in the parotid regions, A considerable number otresurpum«liko spots were scattel thickly over the left scapula and thence forward as far as the atilia. They ranged from one-cighth to one-fourth of an inch in diameter, were alightly elevated and furfurace- ous on the surface, and many of them were confluent in groups of two to four or more. A similar but much less abundant eruption was observed sparsely scattered overthe correspond- ing region on the rightside. An oval excavated ulcer, about an inch long, the result of a small carbuncle, was seated over the spinous process of the tenth dorsal vertabrm overthe sacrum, there were found four small bedsores, the largest about half an inch in di- ameter. A few acons pustules and a number of irregular spota of post mor- tem hypastatic congestion were scat- tered over the shoulders, back and buttocks. The interior pam of the sorotum was much Adinolnrd flayh hy- pastic congestion. group of hem- orrhoidal tumors rather h::u than a walnut protruded from the anus. The depressed cicatrix of the woundmade by the pistol bullet was recognized over the tenth intercestal, a ce of three and a half in- es to the right of the vertebreel spines. A deep linear incision, made in part by the operation of July 24th, and extended by that of August 8th, occupied a portion closely correspond- examined, ing to the upper border of the right twelfth rib. It commenced posterior- ly about two inches from the verte- bral spines and extended forward a little more than three inches. In the interior of this incision there was a deep nearly square abraded surface about an inch across. A well oiled ilexible catheter, four inches long, was then passed into the wound, as had been done to wash it out during life. More resistance was at first en- countered than had usually been the case, but after several tri.i the cathe. ter entered without any viplence to sition and the body disposed supinely the viscera, incision was made 0T, xtromisy OF the steruin 5, o Tpur followed by a transverse in- e ubdomen just be- us. The four flats thus formed were turned back and the ab- dominal viscera exposed. The suben- taneous adipose tissue was divided by an incinous attack of dysentery from which the patient is said" to have suf- fered during the civil war on the right side, and there were a few similar ad- esions and a number of more delicate and probably recent ones. A mass of coagulated blood covered and concealed the spleen and left & margin of greater omentum. On aris- ing the omentum it was found that this blood mass extended through the left lumbar and iliac regions and droppod down into the pelvis in which there was some clotted blood and rath- er more than a pint of bloody fluid. *‘A foot note here says a large part of this fluid has transided from an injec- tion material of embilme: The biood coagula having been turned out and collected, measured very nearly a pint. It was now evident that sec- ondary hemorrhage had been the im- mediate cause of death, but the point from which blood has escaped was not at once apparent, The omentum was not adherent to the intestines, which were, moderately distended with gas. No intestinal adhesions were found other than those be- tween the transverse colon and the liver already - mentioned. The abdominal cavity being now washed out as thoroughly as possible, a fruitless attempt was made to obtain some indication of the position of the bullet, before making any further in- cisions by pushing the intestines aside; the extremity of the catheter which had passed “into the wound could be felt between the peritone- tum and the right iliac foscia, but it had evidently doubled up on itself, and although ‘a prolonged scarch was made nothing could be seen or felt of the bullet, either in that region or elsewhere; the abdominal viscera were then carefully removed from the body, placed 1n suitable vessels and examined with the following result : The adhesions between the liver and transverse colon proved to bound on the abcess cavity between, under the surface of the liver; the trans- verse meso colon which involved the gall bladder and extended to abont the same distance on each side of it, measured six inches transverse and four inches trom before, backward; this cavity was lined with a thick pyo- genic membrane which completely re- placed the capusut of that part of the under surface of the liver occupied by the absceess: it contains about two ounces of greenish, yellow fluid and a mixture of pus and bilious matter, This abscess did not invade any por- tion of the substance of the liver ex- cept the surface with which it was in contact and no communication eould be detected between 1t and any part of the wound. Some recent perito- nial adhesions existed between the upper surface of the right lobe of the liver and the diaphraghm. The liver was larger than normal, weighing eighty-four ounces, JGH ON RATS.” The thing desired found at last, Ask druggist for “Fough on Rats.” It clears out rats, mice, roaches, flies, bed bugs; 15¢ boxes, (U] "A CHANGE OF BASE. President Arthur and His Oabi- net Moved Prom Washing- ton to New York. The Cabinet Officers Being Pre- Pared for the Embalmer, While Political Sunflowers Blos- som Spontaneously Around the Now President. NEW Yonrk, Ocwober 1,—Secretary Lincoln and Mrs. Lincoln left the city on the 10 o'clock train last night for Boston, on their way to Rye Beach, N. H.,where it is the intention of Mr. Lincoln to remain until after the opening of the extra session of the senate, when he will return to Wash- ington. To a Tribune reporter, whom he conversed with atthe Gilsey house, he said he did not care to talk about politics, as he was now on his vaca- tion, and intended to be a private cit- izen. It was his intention to go to Rye Beach to escape from everybody, as he felt worn out. When asked whether the report was true that he fwould succeed Senator Davis, he replied that he was sur- prised that such nonsense had been published. At the same hotel Secretary Hunt was mgistered. He seemed careworn and looked soveral years older than when on his visit to the city prior to the shvo'ing of President glrfield. In speaking of his plana he said that on uudl{ he should begin to inspect the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and then 2o to the Charlestown Yard, returning to Washington in time for the open- ing of the senate. He was reluctant te speak about cabinet matters. He said there would undoubtedly be changes made, but he would not give names. Postmaster General James spent most of the day at the postoffice, in Mr. Pearson’s room, where he received many callers. He will leave this city for Washington this morning at 8 o'clock. In conversation with a reporter, he said, “I am in full accord with Secre- tary MacVeagh when he says that the president should be allowed to choose his own cabinet, and I will add that he should be allowed as much liberty in doing 8o a8 a man should in making the selection of his wife, No man should seek or seem to seek to be in the cabinet.” and Wyoming counties send anti- Conkling delegates to the republican convention, —— Cass County Republican Conven- tion Special dispatch to Tire Arw.

RSN, T LIS YOS KILLED HIS KEEPER. A Prisoner Shoets His Jailer and a Mob Hangs the Murderer. A PRISONER SHOT FOR KILLING HIS KEEPER. Broominaron, Ill, October 2,— The following is another version of the lynching affair: About 6:30 this evening Ed. Franks, tho jailer, was shot and killed by a prisoner named Charles Pierce, alias Powlett, incar- cerated for horse stealing. The jailer went in to change the prisoner trom one cell to another, having a revolver in his hip pocket and one in his coat. He went to unlock the cell door, when the prisoner seized the revolver and shot the jailer in the back. The juiler then turned around and was shot in the shoulder. A third shot pierced his heart. Other prisoners seized and held the murderer. The news spread like wildfire, and by 8 o'clock in the afternoon the jail was surrounded by 5,000 men, women and boys, demanding the hlood of the murderer. The sheriff and police were summoned with a large force, who did all in their power but at 9 p. m. the mob gained entran- Prosident Arthur remained at his house on Lexington avenue the great- er part of to-day. He asserted that he come to this city on private mat- 'ters, to look up household affairs and R wind up his law b\lm. and that @ ‘present was = - Wmm time, owing to the absence of the cab- inet from Washington. Notwith- standing this statement there wasa general beliof among politicians that cabinet matters had something to do with the president’s visit. At least two of his intimate political associ- ates privately expressed such a belief, and it was a topic of general conversation. The president’s visitors gave color of con- firmation to this talk. Among these were ex-Governor Morgan, ex-Senator Boutwell, of Massachusetts; Simon Cameron and his son, Senator Camer- on, of Pennsylvania; Senator Logan, of Illinois; Senator Saunders, of Ne- braska; ex-Governor Warmouth, of Lowsiana; Edward Pierrepont, E. W. Stoughton, Judge Rufus Cowing, Postmaster Sherry, of New Haven; Thomas C. Acton, General Banks, Po- lice Commissioner French, Speaker Sharpe, Judge D. Lawson and a num- ber of politicians. Among other call- ers were about twenty-five office-seek- ers who failed tc gain audience. Ex- Goyernor Morgan, upon whose staff’ General Arthur was during the war, held a long conference vitg the presi- dent. This was put down at once by politicians as having some relation to the offer of the treasury portfolio to the ex-goyernor. Senator Jones arrived from Utica, N. Y., to-night, where he has Leen visiting ex-Senator Conkling. He had a conference with the president after his arrival here. Conkling's pri- vate secretary accompanied Jones from Utica. Although sident Arthur has three rooms at the Fifth Avenue hotel, he did not go there to-day. Re- pairs are being made in his house, which is said to be the reason of his engaging rooms at the hotel, Members of the cabinet now in this city held no consultation with the president yesterday.

'BRADY'S BROTHERHO®D. War Being figafilgomunly 0R the Star-Route Swindlers, The Charges Against the Gang Filed in Open Court. Warrants Issued for the Arrest of the Accused Washington Specisl to the Globe Democrat, The sensation of the day has been the long expected onslaught upon the star route ring. After all the rumors and gossip and threats and bravado on one side and the other, the prosecu- tion has at last actively begun. The course of tho government is of a na- ture to-day which spreads dismay in the ranks of the thieves, and causes their accessories and friends to trem- ble. The evening star route organ fairly froths at the mouth with rage, and all this because the able govern- ment prosecutors began the fight with felony on information instead of first obtaining an indictment by the grand jury. The reason of this mode of procedure to-day is that in this par- ticular case, that of route No. 40,101, the prosecution WOULD BE BARRED by the statute of limitation. It} ap- ra that this possible lapse was seen y the defense, and they had ex- pected to take advantage of it. The move, by information, was wholly unlooked for, as Mr. Bliss remarked to the criminal court. The practice of proceeding by information is ver unusual here, {ls Was not dilpo‘:«{ to be unnecessarily harsh, and the de- fendants would be given time to an- swer. Although nch warranta were asked for, they had arranged with Brady's ccunsel for him to come into court without arrest upon notification. If, as it is said, the star-routers expected to catch the government napping, they ap- peared to have calculated without their host. The meaning of the group of conferees at the Arlington 18 now sufticiently explained. The fact that Attorney-General MacVeagh, Post- master-General James, rewster, Bliss, Cook and Wood have planly the cordial support of the new admin- istration in their descent upon the star route ring is another sore disap- pointment to the ringsters, Thsx ifted up their heads and came fort! from their hiding places in great glee when Garfield died, but the indica- tions of the last forty-eight hours have nipped their exuberance in the bud. YESTERDAY'S CONFERENCE between the president, and the law of- ficers began to open their eyes, and it is a very lugubrious face that they turn toward the future day. There is no Adoubt that Mr. Arthur will be even more vigilant and will more heartily second the cfforts to convict and these nubliopln‘:; ders than the late president, from ¢ very fact that the new administration was, or might be, looked upon with some suspicion with regard to them. There was not the slightest grounds for this belief or suspicion beyond the acts and language of the star-route men aud their interested friends. Any doubts in this connection which have been used to throw discredit on the Arthur administration are pretty effectually dispelled here. The pros- ecutions are to go right on. They are backed by the whole power of the government. The stories of fraud and corruption are to be probed to the bottom, and, if the evidence bears out the allegations filed in the criminal court to-day, there will be a general conviction. The criminal, great and small, will be furnished board and clothes and honest employment in the penitentiary, and they need not look TO BE PARDONED OUT by President Arthur. The case open- ed to-day, however, is by no means the strongest, or the particular one in which the evidence is the most con- vincing. It will do for a feeler. Be- hind this case, though, there are doc- umentary evidences, it is alleged, that will make conviction certain. Your correspondent don't know just what this evidence is, but its character is reported to be ia the nature of checks, with endorsements, notes and official pers of various descriptions and con- essions. The opening of these prom- ised celebrated state trials was very uietly done, but it has made a pro- ?ound sensation. It is said that A, C. Buell, whose name was mentioned 1n the information, and who is editor of The Evening Star, will be indicted by the grand jury as one of the conspira- tors, A check, on which Mr. Buell realized, is among the star route ar, chives now in the hands of the gov- ernment. A check is a bad thing, a very bad thing, and is hard to be ex- plained away, even by the innocent. Ask Schuyler Colfax, It is alleged that several of these very inconven- ient testimonials have been discover- ed, the development of which will cause other hearts to ache. — - to Col CLBVELAND, October 2,—Harry and James Garfield started, in company with J, Stanley Brown, private secre- tary of President Garfield, for Wash- ington last night, whence the boys will go to Williams college to resume their studies, Brown's resignation has been tendered to President Arthur, but he has been re- quested to continue to act, at least for a time. Ho has been chosen by Mrs, Garfield as her financial agent, and she has instructed him to dispose of the Washington residence. Mrs. Garheld still bears up courageously, but the weight of grief is too heavy for Grandina Gar- field, and she shows signs of giving way. ————— A Heavy Swell, h H, Bloomer, of Virgille, N, Y-, *Your Thomay' Eeleobrie Oif neck and sore throat ht hours.
