He was regarded as of a weak mind and at one^ time was a fanatic on temperance-^-and delivered a lecture at the first Methodist church on that subject. Failing to pay the Tribune for its advertisement of the lecture, that paper wrote him up as a fraud, and was sued by him for lihlc, the suit never coming to an issue. He wrote a pamplet on the second coming of Christ, which was published by Jansen & Mc- Clung as a curiosity. Very little is definitely known of the man, and that little is unfavorably in every wav. Sfiectal to tbe Sat auuab News. Washington, July 3.—The city is comparatively quiet to night, although the streets are filled with people. In fiont of the White llou.se theia is*a deep crowd. It will not disappear wholly all night. The suspense, anx iety and deep interest felt in the wel fare of the President is apparent on every face. To-day prayer* for bis recovery were offered in alt the church es. Telegrams from alt quarters of the globe pour in expressing the deepest consideration. From these telegraphic messages it is clear that the feeling for the President in his danger ia even more fervent in the South than in the Xortb. Tbe Weft is mad and ready to lynch. One man telegraphs from Cali fornia to send the man who shot the President to that State, "C. 0. D-,” and short work will be made with hhn. Affairs at the White HuUfe have been more cheerful to-day than yesterday. The bnlledcs from the sick room have been cheering in their character. Ev erybody there appears cheerful. In the President's room are two nurses, Mrs. Garfield and the doctors. X» others have been permitted to enter. The strictest quiet is enjoined, and very few people are allowed to enter the house, though the President ia far removed from their feet and vices. Vice-President Arthur, who arrived to-day, has tried twice to tee the Pres ident, bat has not been permitted that privilege. In bet. Dr. Bliss, attending physidan-in-chiei; said that he would admit any one to the Executive pres en ce rather than Arthur. His entrance to the sick room wonld piodnce emo tions that wonld result most probably fatally. The. doctors buoy up tbe hopes- of the public. They have been justified in doing ao from all the present symp toms of the President He has been recovering from the abode, and has, since 9:30 last right, been gradually bnt slowly improving. * TOeae favora ble symptoms, the truth might aa well be told, have beea exaggerated, -and again they do not mean so very much, in view of tbe fact that the —- all th* l*tt*v**uJ papers dfhks which York, was as far west as tbe rail-) wife took the corpse to Montreal to the District Attorney has.

An investigation by the secret ser vice mu and detectives from New York, to ascertain if Gniteau had any accomplices in this deed and whether he was instigated to it by other parties, was finished this erening and an of ficial report made to the Attorney-Gen eral and tho President's private secre tary. The remit of the investigation is simply that the nun "ia crazy and did a crazy deed, being insUgsted by no one, and by nothing except an over- notfdyRMtttiriiflr OLOOV AT THE WHITE HOUSE—4 TALE ride until a regular stop was made. Captain Ayers finally determined to inttituto a new system in the running of'trains. He procured a stout twine, sufficiently long to reach from the locomotive to the rear car. To the end of this string next the engineer be fastened a stick of wood. He rau the coni back over tire cart to the last one. He informed the engineer, who was « German, named Abe Hnmmll, that if he desired to have the train stop ped be would pull the cord and raise the stick, aud'would expect Ihc signal to be obeyed. Ilammil look ed upon this innovation as w direct blow at nis authority, and when the train left Piermont he cut the stick loose. At Turner’s he told Captain Ayers that he proposed to run the train himself, without interference from any conductor. Tbe next day the Captain rigged up his string and stock of wood again. “Abe,’’ said he, "this thing's got to be settled one way or the other to day. If that slock of wood is not on the end of this cord when we get to Turner’s you've got to lick mo or Ml 11 zk you.” . The (tick was not on the string when the trainjrcacheil Turner's. The Captain pulled off hia coat, and told Hammil to get off of his engine. Ilammil declined to get off. Capt. Ayers climbed to the engineer’s placo. Ilammil .-started to jump off on tho opposito side. Tho conduc tor hit him undor the ear and saved him the trouble of jumping. That settled forever tho question of au thority on railroad trains. Ilammil abdicated as autocrat of the pioneer Eric train, and the twine and stirk of wood, manipulated by the cou- ductor, controlled Its management. That was tho origin of the bell rope, tiow one of the "most important at tachments of railroad trains. The idea was quickly adopted by the tew roads then in operation, and the bell or gong'In time took tbe place of-tho stick of wood to signal tlie engineer. Capt Ayres continued a conductor on this road under tbe different managers till ho wasiiiper- annuatedand retired on n pension, a year ago.
