THE NORTHERN RAILROAD WAR,
The freight and passenger war in
which some of thegrand trunk rail
ways in the North have been engaging
for sometime, is calling popular atten
tion to the vast proportions some of these
corporations are assuming and the
strength they have. For weeks they
have been carrying freights and pas
sengers at a mere nominal figure,
which, if continued for any consider
able, lengtbof time, would bankrupt
them. This is when they are at . war
with each other. But suppose they, in
stead of pulling against each other, re
solve to unite, and ."pool their issues,"
as D. Kearney would say, and they
sometimes do, what is the result then?
A rise in rates that makes profitable
shipping Of grain and other farm pro
duce almost an impossibility. Until
the shipment of Western grain began
by the barge system on the Mississippi
to New Orleans and thence to Europe,
within the past year, this was common,
but the new outlet offered a low rate
of freight which compelled the great
trunk lines to lower their rates.
Jay Gould, however, has reached out
in that direction, and in time he will
be gobbling up the large lines and will
in all probability have as complete con-
tfol of the great Western river high
way as he now has of the seven' thous
and miles of rail which he manages.
This is the great syndicate era. They
are reaching out not only for the main
lines, but also for the feeders, the short
branch roads that connect with them,
and it is only a question of time, and
no verv remote time either when the
entire rail and water system of trans
portation in this country will be under
the domination of a very few of the
great capitalists of the country, and
then it will be in their power to form
such combinations as their interests
may dictate.
Great through lines, backed by large
capital are a public benefit when run
as competitors, because with low rates
they help to develop the country
through which they run, and increase
production, but when they combine,
and fixii tariff to suit themselves it be
comes quite another matter; then new
enterprises cease and old ones die.
They then become the grinding monop
olies of which all sections of this coun
try have had more or less cause of
complaint, and against which a party
is now being organized and which
promises to exercise no small influence
in the near future. How strong this
party may become depends on the con
duct of the management of these great
corporations. If run in the spirit of
selfishness that has characterized some
of them in the past, they will find this
party headed by able, aggressive and
determined men, as positive and un
yielding as they themselves have been
exacting and uncompromising.
RADICAL CONSISTENCY.
In nothing is the arrant hypocriscy of
the Republican party leaders more con
spicuous than'in their endorsement of
the Readjuster party in Virginia.
When it is a question of dividing the
Democratic party and carrying a State
all their fine spun platitudes about
honesty and the honor of the State
they forget at once and heartily en
dorse anything that pronounces itself
opposed to the Democratic party.
In Maine they denounced the Demo
crats who formed a coaltion with the
Greenbackers, and the Greenbackers
did not propose to destroy any obliga
tion nor to repudiate any debt, but
when Mahone comes to them and tells
them that with their moral support and
the aid of the negro vote of Virginia,
on a repudiation platform, he can carry
the State, they pat him on" their back,
endorse repudiation and write letters
telling all the Republicans of Virginia
to vote for repudiation and Mahone's
candidate. All theirprof essions of hones-
and public morality are lost sight of
and banished when political expedien
cy comes into question.
The first great object in view with
them is the defeat of Democracy, the
character of means employed being
a matter of no consideration. To do
this they would strike hands with any
party ana upon any piatiorm.
A GROWING ENTERPRISE.

Executive Mansion. 1 0:30 a. m.
In conversation this morning on the
President's condition Dr. Boynton said
he prospects were considerably bright
er and that the patient is resting com
fortably. In reply to an inquiry the.
doctor explained that the enemas
which were being administered consist
ed principally of diluted extract of
beef, a yolk of an egg and whiskey, the
whole being dissolved and slightly
heated.
Dr. Bliss in conversation ol the same
subject stated that a small portion of
muriatic acid was also a part of the
enemas. The latter gentleman ex
presses the opinion that the President's
stomach was gradually becoming
stronger, and referred to the fact that
nourishment was being retained as a
Eroof thereof.: The doctor still remains
opeful and says there is no reason for
givingtne iresiaent s case up yet.
ur. uoynton in response to a question
regarding the President's taking nour
ishment, in a regular manner, said it
was possible that a very small quantity
of diluted beef extract, probably a tea
spoonful, would be given him about
noon. It would depend, however, upon
the patient's condition at that hour.
He has not been troubled with nausea
since yesterday atternoon, at wnicn
time he threw off about a gill of liquid
matter containing a quantity of bile,
Dr. Boynton says Mrs. Garfield con-
tin ues very hopeful and feels rather
more encouraged to-day -than she did
yesterday.
unofficial bulletin.
Executive Mansion. 11 :30 a. m.
Dr. Bliss in a second interview this
morning was asked whether there was
anything in the President's condition
to indicate that pycemia or blood poison
ing was the cause of the President's
unfavorable symptoms i He replied
very emphatically in the negative, and
said that there was no connection
whatever between the wound and the
present troubles; that the unfavorable
symptoms were due entirely to the con
dition of the patient's stomach and that
the attending surgeons were all quite
confident that the treatment adopted
would soon remedy this. In referring
to the appearance of the President Dr.
Bliss said that when he was shot his
weight was about 210 pounds, that his
confinement had reduced him probably
seventy pounds and that there was of
course some pallor, but as he wore full
beard this was not so perceptible as it
would otherwise be.
All reports received from the sick
room this morning have been of an en
couraging character and while there is
a feeling of reassurance considerable
anxiety is still manifested and the noon
bulletin is anxiously awaited.

Previous to the midday dressing Dr.
Agnew was asked the condition of the
President, to which he responded "he
is better to-day." When questioned
further the doctor said "there is noth
ing further to say than is contained in
the bulletin which is stated over my
own together with the signatures of the
otner surgeons. The doctor was press
ea ior a reply to the question as to
whether he considered that the patient
had an equal chance for recovery. He
said "it is a bad plan to speculate on
chances, the bulletin tells the story that

unofficial bulletin.
Executive Mansion. 2 p. m. Dr.
Bliss has just come from the patient's
room and before leaving the mansion
said that the President had taken nour
ishment twice since the mid-day dress
ing occurred, at 12.45 and 1.45. It con
sisted of a cooled infusion of beef mixed
with a few drops of muriatic acid.
The statement heretofore made that
muriatic acid was one of component
parts of the enemas was erroneous.
The patient is given about a teaspoon-
rui at a time. What has been adminis
tered thus far has been retained, and
the improvement anticipated by it has
been realized. The President, shortly
after the first dose was taken, express
ed himself as feeling better, and his
pulse indicated great improvement,
having become stronger and the num
ber of beats materially decreased. Nour
ishment will be administered again
about 3 p.m. The doctor is in excel
lent spirits, and feels confident that
the patient will now rally rapidly.
Enemas are being continued as usual
in addition to other nourishments, and
will not be dispensed with for the pres

Guard's Statement of the
counter With (iultea.ii.
En-
Washlngton, August 17. A report
was current here this morning that
Guiteau had attempted to kill one of
the guards at jail but it was stated at
police headquarters that the report
was without foundation, it is learned,
however, that the report was true. At
an early hour this morning as W. C.
McGill, one of the guards passed Gui
teau's cell, he noticed something
wrong and entered the cell. He found
a knife in Guiteau's possession and de
manded it, but Guiteau refused to give
it up. McGill drew a pistol and a strug
gle ensued. Guiteau made a desperate
effort to secure the pistol and succeed
ed in getting it away from McGill. Af
ter a severe struggle McGill regained
possession of the pistol, which, being
discharged during the scuffle, brought
other guards to his assistance and Gui
teau was disarmed.
Washinton Executive Mansion,
August 17. 1 :30 p. m. Major Brock,
of the metropolitan police force, was
summoned to the telephone a moment
ago, and was informed by the police
man whom he had despatched to the
jail to ascertain what truth there was
in the rumor concerning Guiteau s at
tempt to assassinate a guard, that the
guard was standing immediately out
side of the door of the cell, when he
noticed that the prisoner was acting
in a strange and unusual manner, and.
as he (the guard; tnought, was trying
to hang himself. The guard opened
the door, and upon entering the cell
Guiteau seized him and a scuffle ensued,
during which the guard drew his pis
tol in self defense, ana it was accident
ally discharged. Hearing the report
of the pistol, another of the guards
rushed to the scene and separated the
men. There was no damage done by
the discharge of the weapon.
An Accident on a L.on jj Branch steam
er Camei a Panic
New York. Aug. 17. The steamer
Plymouth Rock, on her morning trip
to .Long israncn, witn some i,uw or
1,100 passengers at 11.30 o'clock, when
about 20 miles from Iron Pier, burst a
steam flue, knocking open the doors
of the engine room from which an
immense volume of steam hissingly
escaped. A scene of terrible confus
ion and terror ensued, the passengers
beincrmsdlv panic stricken in their
struggle for life preservers.
Men were seen to seize tnem even
from women. For about half an hour
there was a scene of dire confusion.
On the upper deck cabin a struggling
mass was wedged, the doors being
blocked up, and to facilitate escape
windows were broken out by the offi
cers of the boat .and the passengers
passed through, head first. Aa soon as
the panic had somewhat subsided the
band struck up and this helped to reas
sure the passengers and restore order.
The tug Germania, about half an hour
after the accident, went to the assis
tance of the Plymouth Rock and took
her in tow. Before starting, however,
the steamers Schuyler and City of
Richmond also came up. The latter
boat and the Germania towed the dis
abled steamboat some distance up the
bay to smooth water where her passen
gers were transferred to the City of
Richmond and brought to this city.
The Plymouth Rock was towed to her
dock by the Germania. In the panic
there were a number of women and
children knocked down and trampled
on, but to what extent they were in
jured has not been ascertained.

Professor Snarplesa on tne Comet
Professor Sharpless, of Haverford
College, said last evening that the
cloudy weather which has prevailed
for several mornings has rendered it
impossible to make good observations
upon the comet. The orbit, however,
has been partially determined, and it
has been found that the comet will be
nearest to the earth on the 20th of the
present month. Whether the celestial
visitor has ever called upon us before
can be determined only after his orbit
has been more carefully calculated and
compared to those of wbich there is
authentic record. Until more extended
observations have been made it will be
impossible to estimate the size of the
luminary, the length of the tail or the
period which will elapse before it pays
the earth another visit.
