Sands and Shrady just armved by a _epecial which also brought 1. S. t, Jr., aod wife. The newcomers re- paired at once to the cottage. A singular oc curreuce at the cottage has just been related by Dr, Newman, At five minutes of 1 o'cluck Gen. Grant asked the hour of the day. “‘One < spoko one of thote near him. Soon afterward the cottage clock chimed ~twelve atrokes, and the general counted thom. Then hio wrote on a pad that ho observed the clock was wrong and desired to have it strike the right hour, which was done, and the instance passed as one more of the remarkable episodes of the general's later sickness. There has been a re-occur- rence of hicconghs toda 1 p. m.—The phyeicians met at once with Dr. Dougla in consultation after leaving the cottage where they found the general in a critical condition.” No one of the staff is willing to predict anything beyond twenty four hours, through which period it is deemed impossible that the general can survive, though the probability now is that much less time marks the limit of the general’s life, A |c change for the worse was anticipated as the day closed. The pulse is now over one hundred, At 10:30, however, it was stated by reliable authority that the goveral was in a slightly better condition than two hours ago. From the present condition, which borders upon & lethargic state, the vatient may quietly drift into final “onsgiousn During the afternoon the ex- tromities of the sick man have bsen cold and in the visible symptoms are signs that nature puts out when death is chilling the powers. The genersl, a3 the night passes, seema to be suffering no pain, though the lines of his face are tensely drawn and the furrows of the brow are knitted as he lies upon the cot be- aide which the family are constantly watch- ing. At 1 o'clook the general was not asleep. His hands and forearms were colder than two before but his fest were aot %o much so, His pulseand respiration not changed. The patient’s mind was yet clear and comprehensive of the avent: and utterances about him. Between 10 and 11 o’clock Dr. S8hrady had accosted the general and he answered in & husky voice and promptly, Stimulants were being used, hut sparingly, and there was an experienco ex- pressed by the medical authority about 11 o'clock that the closing crisis may occur sither at 1 or 4 o'clock to-night. At midnight Gen, Grant romaina yet quiet though not asleep, The coming hour is being anticipated with great anxiety. At midnight bottles of hot water wero placed at the gen- srals feet to induce warmth and mua- tard draughts were applied upon the stomach and breast to preserve the flagging circulation, Dr. Sinds is resting at the hotel and Drs, Douglass and Shrady are at the cottage. La, m,—The general remains in the ssme quiet condition, His pulse and_respiration aro unchanged, and thero is o feeling that ho may tide over the midnight season of woak- ness and until 4 a, m, r1ypodermics of brandy are being used, 2 a, m,—The family is astir in the cottage, though there no visible indications that point to other conditions than at the time of the last bulletin 3, m —Gen Grant is in a somnolent con dition, Lespirations have grown shallow and the general s no longer able to expectorato because of his weaknese, which is increasing, There secms but little possibility that the pationt will survive the night. The early morning hours at the Grant cot. tage were cool and refreshing. The ther. mometer at 2 o'clock this morning marked 72°, this was the equable temperature main taine the sick room while General Grant remained in New York and to it was this morping added the sweet odor from the pine trees which bend over the cottage roof, entle 'breeze, sweet and deliclous swept miles and miles down the valley and from the mounthing, It stirred the Surtaivs in the window vear which sat the sick man and fanned his face mors gratefully than could the careful hands which were waiting uear. Between 2 and 3 a, m. the eray tint of an. other day crept up the horizon green mountaine, perhaps the last esrthly day of the sick wan sitting within the cottage par- lor. - About and all round the cottage was atill and quiet, except the occasional twitter of some birds in the birches or pines. ()ccas- twonally Henry, the vurse, wandered out on the piazzs for fresh air and a glinpse of the night. Once at about 3 o'clock Mrs, Grant, attired in & loote gewn of white came out on the veranda, and reated herself in one of the maby deserted willow chairs which were acattered in groups about the piszza, Ten minutes she sat motionless and looked away to the east, where tne gray tint of another day bad grown to full promuse Her face rested upon one hand and she was svidently wrapped in the folds of thought, Suddenly there came a sound of a laboring, rattliog cough from within, It was the gen- eral clearing the affected parts of his throat of mucus, Mrs. Grant left the piszza quickly aod seated herself by the generals side, slowly fanning the sick man's face, The coughing was not severe but incidental. Col. Fred, (irant entered the room while the ourse was aldiog the general and took a hours lace beside and behind his father. Rele’ morniog had passed three oolock and the time had come to administer food, The nurse touched the shoulder of Dr, Douglas as he lay asleep on a couch in the same room, He arose sud administered food snd afterwards cleansed the general's throat As the physician laid aside appliancse sgain (iap, Grant leaned forward in the chair and wgnified » desire that the lamp should be brought. The vurse brought the lamp and held it at the sick man's shoulders, and at the woment the general tuwmed his face towurd the light and upward to bid the nurse briog & pad and pencil, His wish was not instantly understood, and turning a trifle farther the general repeated the wish, This time his low, husky whisper was inter- proted and the pad and pencil were brought. He wrote but briefly on the slip which he handed to Dr, Douglas, who at once passed it to Col. Grant, It was n private family com munication, ~After writing the general re sumed a half reclining position. At 5 o'clock Dr, Douglas was asoused and sent a summons for Dr. Sandes, and the general settled down in the chair and dc» d, Dr. Sands was sum moned only that %e might share the responsi Dility at the close of the night and not with the thought that any sid could be rendered by him or any one during the day, Stimulants were given the gencral Lut he grows weaker hur by hour, The morning is clear and mercury at 11 the thermometer registered 80 degrees, All visi tora are kept from the cottage and a Sablath day quiet prevails about thespot, De, Now man 18 with the family, who are (uietly waiting the end, The general's mind con- tinued coherent and clear, He sits much of the time as he did last night with his eyes closed. U, S, Grant, jr,, is expected to ar. rive this afternoon, when the family circle will ba complete. Dr, Douglas has just left the cottage and says the general's pulseis very weak and flut- tering, The patient, once during the morn. ing, attempted to write but succeeded in write ing only the date, the effort being greater than the little remaining strength warranted, He has spoken at intervala but his voice is very feeble. During the forenoon food was taken and retained, With the declining day the Dhysician believes the ganeral will also rapidly decline, The development of the ganeral's wekness during the afternoon was not particularly noticeable from hour to hour but batween 3 and 6 o'clock thera was a clearly, though not violently. marked increase of weakuness, At 38 o'clock 1t was possible to measure the pulse beats but at 6 o'clock one of the physicians stated that the pulse beats could not be counted because they were so frequent and feeble, During the afternoon the blood tide had 80 quickened that it more rapidly wore the eystem and exhausted the fral basis, if any existed, upon which might be placed A hope that the general might ra 1 The point was reached at G rck when there was little to be expected attempts to administer food, Soon after 6 o'clock Harrison came up from the cottage and told Doctors Sands and Shrady that Dr. Douglas desired to soo them at the cottage. Thither went the doctors, remaining but a short time and then coming again to the hotel, The family, beginning at 6 o'clock, came to the hotel to dinner in twos, the others re mainiog at the cottage in the mean time, The family dined in a private room set apart for their use at the hotel, m order, at this critical time, that they might be secluded from the curious observation of many visitors and guests with whom the general's condition from hour to bour had been the topic of the day. The closed and silent cottage all day suggested mutely the enactment of the last scene in Gen, Grant's earthly existence. As the sun went down a cool breeze like that of last night sprang up and again laymen on the mountain endeavored to persuade themselves and others that a cool night would bring_renewed strength to the patient and help him rally through the night. But such was not the opinion oi the doctors who were prepared to attend the general’s death-bed at a moment’s motice or to wait through the hours and into the night for the end, More than that, they were prepared to find the patient alive in the mornine. At T o'clock, however, as the thres physicians were at dinner, Harrison came to the hotel and led Dr., Douglas, who went at once and alone to the cottage. Soon afterward another messenger from the cottage summoned Drs, beyond the | p, Shrady and Sands, and they repaired to the cottage, closaly followed by Dr, Newman, The exita of the doctors ar tte clergyman from the hotel were, how .ver, so quietly effected that few knew they had been sum- moned to the cottage. Arrived there, they found the general evidently sinkiog, The general seemed restless, ““Would you like to lie down, father?” asked Col, Grant, who d the restlessness, The general nodded an the same moment essayed to rise unas- sisted. But the effort was too much for him, and he sank back into the chair, and the colonel and the nurse aided him to arise, and then supported him to his bed, where he was carefully lowered to a reclininf position and partly on his face. Dr, Douglas then rolled the chairs back, and oce of the physicians has since remarked that the general has now left his chair for the last time, The belief is that the general has at length 1ain down to die, The family are all gathered at the side of the sick raan and again Dr. Newman, at about the same hour as last night and at Mrs, Grant’s request, knelt beside the general and prayed. Heads were bowed and silent tears were on the cheeks of the men as well as the women. The doctors sat some- what apart and the family was near its fast sinking head. Then, after an hour, death seemed littlo less = rapidly gaining on the man it hss pursued just = nine months to-dsy—for it s just mine J months ago to-day that Gen, Grant walked into Dr. Douglas’s oftice to seek his profes. sional aid for the cancer that has done what foes ana war could nmot Then the doctors and the clergyman strode out upon the piazza and sat near the parlor window and Jeese Grant joined them at times, but the other members of the family remained in the sick room and watched and waited, while the gen- eral answered ‘‘yes” and ‘‘no” te several questions. ‘l'ime passed slowly indeed and at lengthat 8:16 o'clock Dr. Douglas left the cottage, *‘How is it, doctor?” was asked him, “He is dying,” said the gray baired phyicisn, i *'Will he live an hour?” was asked again. “Oh! yes, and possibly more, but he is pass- ing away,” was the response, and after a lit tle time at the hotel Dr, Douglas returned to the cottage. At ! o'clock the general’s pulse was up to the point of 165 beats to the minute and fluttering, After his rally, and about 9 o'clock, Gen, ant eank into » sleep that was described by a witness a8 the peaceful and beautiful sleep of a child, This condition, however, is not one to command onfidence, for the pulse beats are still rapidly fluttering, and the res piration, which normally is 14 to the minute, is now 44, - e —— The Mercury Still Way Up.

Veterans Call for the Assurance ¢ the Pres'dent—Vilas Discusses the Mail Subsiay, THE NATIONAL CAPITAL WORK OF THE CABINET, Special Telegram to The B, WASHINGTON, July 22.—There was n para- graph sent Monday about the removal of an | b, Towa man by Oommistioner Atkins on ac- count of an effort made by him to commit Lribery, which proves incorrect In some par- ticulars, The facts are that J, J. Franey, of Council Blaffs, was lately appointed Indian trader, His father, B, B3, Franey, has been in town a good while trying to get anap- appointment as Indian agent. Congressman Jere Murphy told Congressman Fredericks thut Franey had offered him (Murphy) 8500 if Murphy could help him pet the appointment in the Indian service, Fredericks repeated this to Commissioner Atkins, who remembered that the application of % man named Franey had been before him, the son being in his mind, and he at orce gave orders to the appointment division to hang tho matter up till further orders, if Franey had not been appointed. The com- missioner looked into the matter a little more to-day and found out that it was Franey, the father, who was accused, and it was tho son whom he had appointed an Indian trader, The commissioner said that if he found any- thing dubious about . Franey's reputation he #hall remove the young man at once, but that if he appeared to be all right he would not remove him on account ¢f any quarrel between his father and Congreseman Murphy. Young Franey was appointed on the recom mendation of Van Manning, ex-congressman from Missiasippi, Spaaker Carlisle and Mayor Vaughn, of Council Bluffs. As soon as Com- miesioner Atkine got to the department to- day he sent for Manning and told him what he had heard, Manning teplied that there was not a particle of reason for suspecting the young man of anything crooked; that if the old man tried to bribe Murphy it was in order to get place for lmself, and not to get a place for his son, and that Murphy and the senior Franey had had a bitter quarrel, and Franey slapped Murphy’s face, on F etreet in this city a few weeks ago, and this was probably all the foundation that thers was for the charge of bribery. Atkins_has taken no action in the case yet, but he will_have Franey thoroughly investigated, He will not punish him for any sing his father may have committed, but he will remove him instantly if he finds any reason to doubt the young man’s honesty. The president to-day appointed the follow- ing_postmasters: Willism J.

Sheridan has reported that no permanent set- tlement of Indian territory can bs cffected while the cattlemen aro in’ possession of the best Iands, and it is tho intention of the presi- dent to remove the distributing element and roserve Indian torritory for the exclusive oc- cupation of the Indians. The method of pro- codure has not yet been determined.

Dr, Leonard, prohibition candidate for the eame office, upon the question at issue which is, Mr, Thompson eays, etween your party and ours, viz: ‘The tax- fon va. the probibition of 1 liquor trafic.” Bushnell replies saying that there s no such issue, Many republicans favor probibi- tion and many oppose it, The party is neither for or sgainst, Ho regards that ques- tion s non-political, to be settled by the peo- plo irrospective of party, It has in its plat- form recogmzed the right of tho peo- ple to chaoge the comstitution, but that, meantime, because the pres ent constitution must govern until & change is made the republican party has de- clared in favor of the taxation of the liquor traffic and a regulation to suppress the evils resulting therefrom. Theso positions Jugge Foraker would malntain, but as un issue is not existing it is proposed that he would be obliged to decline the proposition. Another reason why the discussion could mot take place Captan Bustmell says, is that Dr. Leonard in a speech bad declared that the first step toward prohibition is to kill the republican party,” thus making himsel! the avowed ally of the democratic party. To have a discussion be- tween Judge Foraker and Dr. Leonard, therefore, would be to have a candidate of one of the great parties of the state debating with the nominee of what is only an attempted diversion in favor of the other great party of the state, If the democratic party will promote Dr, Learnard to the head ofits ticket and make him its leader as ho is now its acknowledged ally, Judge Foraker, he was sure, would bo glad to discuss with him any or all questions arising between the parties 8o presonted e —— McCOnllough a Lunatic, PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 22.—The com- miseion inquiring into the mental condition of Jobn McCullough this afternoon rendered a verdict that McCuallough is a lunatic, and has been #0 for a apaco of six months last past, but | ¢ enjoys some lucid intervals, yet is " incapable of managing his person and estate.

What Roach’s reeources are no others, of course, e koow; but he always appearsd to be a wealthy man, and no doubt was what he eeemed. Only the force of sircumstances has put him into the present position.

Five or six years ago the fish Industry first began to assume important dimen- slons; 1t was then that canneries began to loom up, and 1n the course of three years foliuwing_grew to really gigantic proportione. Firms in this clty engaged in farnishing supplies of all descriptions to fishing outfits did an 1mmense busi- nees, and the outlook became as promis Ing as that of any Industry on the coast. Soon, however, the sea llon nuis- ance manlfested 1iself, and at the present time the fish industry In and around San- Francleco bay Is nesrly paralyzad, The sea lion Is a lover of luxary, which doubtless means to that species of animal life a place to lounge on the sunny slde of some ragged clitf, and plenty to cat provided by somebody else. Durlng the day the antmals are seen in great abun- dance floundering about the rocks near the Cliff House, but toward night they disappear and in immense bands flock in- to the bay through the entrance at the Golden Gate, The fishermen usually start out about 4 or 5 o'clock in ths af ternoon to set thelr nets and do the gre er part of their work betwe2a that hour and midnight, The sea lions seom 03 bave comprehended the processes of the fishermen and evldently lis In walt for their approach.

They rush at the vets, telze the fish, tear them loose from the meshes and devour them with the rapldity of machines. If the band happens to be few In numbers, not equal to the consumption of all the fish In the nets which they attack, they will tear the fish out and play with them, sometimes, many fust in the alr, and otharwlse destroying tho game of the in- dustrlous fishermen so that 1t is not an uncommon oscurrence for the hungry tollers of the bay toltft 150 fathoms of net without securlng a single fieh, The lions can be sean almost any tlme clasing up and down beforc the neta In great numbers tearing the meshes, breaking the cords and doing s vast deal of damage aslde from destroying all the fish, and are 80 foarless In thls riotous work that they will approach within a few feot of the fisherman's boas, Trade in the merchandise of fishing outfit has been reduced to conslderably less than one’third of what It was two years ago, and the Itallane, Portugese and others engaged in supplying the local fish markete, instead of making it a payiog enterprlse, are reduced in many instances to actusl want.
