VOL. X. GRANT 5H T ( IT BETTER. AN ASTROLOGER MAKES PREDICTIONS ABOUT THE PATIENT. He Says that According to the Stars th< General will Have Several bad Days Soon, on Any One of Which he is Likely to Die—Dr. Douglas Talks. New Yom, March 13.—Gen. Grant speni a comfortable day, but he did not sleep well which made the fourth successive testiest night. Dr. Douglas has discarded the use oi anodynes entirely to produce sleep and sub stituted stimulants instead. The new plan ii only partially successful. When Dr. Douglai called at noon he was refreshed and in good spirits. He was so well that it was decided that imjiortaut business tlmt had been await ing his attention, but had necessarily beei laid aside during his serious illness, should be attended to, Accordingly a commissi one: was sent Tor, and arriving, the general wai able to execute several deeds and give his at tention to other legal business. Yesterday was the secund day that he hai been without pain. He t x>k quite a quantity of liquid foot! and retained it Throughout the day from the hour of his rising be showed uuprovemeut. He showed such good spirit and feft so well that he wanted to go down t< dinner with the family, but they would not permit him to do so. His only exercise is is walking about his sleeping-room and library, which are connected, and t hrough them int< the hall. He read an evening paper, ano was considerably amused at the random glasses as to the state of his health, his plant and the movements of friends who are ex pected to visit the Grant family. Htill another plan was tried for producing sleep. This treatment was principally ii taking food stimulants to be used if he wax restless. “If you had seen Gen. Grant you would not have thought he had been sick al al Iso far as his face is concerned,” said Dr. Douglas at his last call of the day on his pa tient: “His pulse and temperature are excel lent The former is normal and his tempera ture a trifle over the normal of men in a healthy condition. During the day he hat six or eight hours of sleep and passed a gooc day.** A cab dashed into East Sixty-sixth streel from Madison avenue and stopped in front ol the Grant residence. A tall, dignified gentle man entered and re naiaed a half hour oi mure. The latter caller proved to ba Dr. St. Leon, the astrologer. Wh ni asked if he had been called to the Grant residen o, he said: “Uh, no. I take a great, interest in the gen eral’s welfare, as it is natural for everybody to do. Long ago, while flu was president, « mutual friend gave me the ’..ini -of his birth. I cast his horoscope, air; have examined it e great deal since his s. xness. Gen. Grant was born on Saturday, April 27, 1M23, about 5 o’clock in the morning. At that time th* sign of Taurus was risinAs he ciuiie ink the world the sun was rising in conjunctioi with the most fortunate of all the planets. Jupiter. This denotes fame at last, n< matter how obscure the birth. The planet Mai’s was in the 1 royal sigi Leo, near to the fixed star Reg ulus, and in good aspect to Mercury, while the lattei was in Aries, which is the mansion of mars. Thus, Gen. Grant’s military fame is fully ac counted for. His horoscope shows his greal successes in war and later in civil life. Hi? financial ruin and the distress of himself anc family by reason of the failure of the busi atsis with which they were connected, wax predicted by me montns before it came upox tlienj. Os his more recent life and his pres ent illness and its outlook, the .stars tell th< story more fully than the meagre bulletins oi his relatives and physicians care to mak< public. The planet Mercury describes his disease a”<« its lod*H •* in Aries slmjw that it is ii hi' uead. Jupiter is the killing star and wax seriously afflicted by Saturn at the time ol his birth, and is located in Taurus, thx throat. Thus the eaucer in the gen earl’s throat is accounted for. Ido not place much reliance on the reports that his bean is seriously affected, as has been surmised. Certainly no heart trouble will cause hi? death, for the moon in Cancer describe* the end of his life. I fear that the distin guished soldier will be spared to us but t short time, us the planets are rapidly going into serious affliction. Should be escape thii period a still inure unfurvunate aspect will be formed on the 21st and 22d of this month Then the danger will be even greater, anc there will no doubt be a serious time ui those days. The period of extreme dangei will extend to the 28th and 30th of March Each of those dates is extremely unfavorablt for surgical operations. There will be a com paratively peaceful and quiet ending of ht general’s life, and there is nothing in his hor oscope to indicate a violent death. ” GEN. WALLACE TO GEN. GRANT. Preparing an Article for the “Century” in Reply to That of the Old Commander. Itoiaxap >i.ts, March 13. —The Indianapo Its Times, whose editor enjoys confidential relations with Gen. Lew Wallace and fam ily, publishes the following editorial. “Gen. Lew Wallace, now our minister to Turkey, feels keenly the criticism of himself by Gen, Grant in his article on th< battle of .Shiloh, in the February Century, and will, upon his retun home, which will be in a very short time prepare and publish in the Century an art! cle in which he will give a full and perfec! history ut the movements of his division throughout the two days of battle. It will be thorough and exhaustive. “Gen. Grant seemed to have forgotten when he wrote the Century article that he ever gave Gen. Wallace an exoneration which covers a point he recently made againsl him as a glove covers a baud. H« forgot another peculiarly interesting and pertinent incident. Arter thebattk of Monocacy he was full of gratitude. Ix saving Washington Gen. Wai la 'e had, ins large measure, saved Giant's military repu tation, and in tacit acknowledge out he in vited Gen. Wallace to spend a couple oi weeks with him at City Point. The general accepted the invitation. Ont Jay at the dinner table some officer: were discussing the battle of Shiloh. Gens. Grant and Wallace both listened attentively. At length Gen. Grant turned to Gen. Wallace. wbo sat at his right, and said in a low voice: “If I had known thea what Ido now, I would have ordered you tc move as you started tor the tic-id.'’ This in cident has never been mentioned outside oi the general’s own family, because it wai table-talk and might have been considered ai confidential, but the general’s triends novi feel that the Unitary. article relieves both the general and taeuiselves from restraint.

AMBITIOrS BARRIOS. GUATEMALAN PRESIDENT CLAIMS HIMSELF A DIRECTOR. But the President of Mexico Suys Him Nay Interesting State of .AHairs in South ern North America —Some Active War Measure*. IhIBEHATED SAN SALVADOR VIA GALVES* vestox, March 13.—The sth of March Presi dent Barrios, of Guatemala, declared Cen tral America should consUti’ite one republic and that he would assume command of all the military forces of the various states. This declaration was accepted by Honduras, but was rejected by San Salvador, Nicaragua, ■ anti Costa Rica. | The fm'ce of Guatemala beftan immediately l to march against San Salvador.

I telegraphe I President ; Barrios as follows: ‘ Your telegram of the ! 7th insr.., announcing your determination !te declare Central America one rc- I public and assume yourself command of all I the forces thereof has been receivtnl. This declaration has been rejected energetically by your sister republics. These circumstances have created such antipathy to your course among Mexican citizens that my government will lie obliged to take immediate action to prevent the execution of your threat against the sister nationalities of this continent.” Active War Measures. San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, via Gal veston, March 18.—Active war prepara tionsare being made throughout the country. I'he government has several thousand men ready to send to the frontier. Strenuous es- I forts to resist the barrier are being made at Costa Rica. A large number of soldiers are ready to move. Great enthusiasm is mani fested, and confidence in the final result is j displayed. It is thought probable that some luartersof Guatemala will consider the mate ter before attempting coercive measures, and that a friendly solution of the dillieult prob lem of uniting the five states may be ar rived at. WASHINGTON WAIFS. Hazen Trial Dead from Cigarettes—Civil Service Reform. Washington, March 13.—1 n tlx Hazen ' court-;nartial Gen. Hazen, through his coun ' s. I. admitted to criticizing the action of Sec retary Lincoln in connection with the Greely I relief expedition; also to having stated to a ; nowsjuiper reporter “that the disaster io the : ( heely party woul I not have occurred had I his recommendation been adopted.” Rudolph Kaulfman, the Evening Star re : porter referred to, testified that in the inix»r --i view with Gen. Hazen the latter admitted I he Lad written a letter to the secretary Os ! war, throwing the blame for the loss of the i Greely party upon the shoulders of the secre ! tary. | Anthony Janus, sou of Prof. Janus, is ' dead. His death is attributed to excessive cigarette smoking. At the capital it is said that Secretary Bayard announced in a positive manner his intention to adhere to the strict letter of the Ail service law. -He sent his messenger into each room of the state department with :.he proclamation to clerks that they need liave no fear of losing their positions through •die change in the administration, as he did not propose to dismiss anyone except for neg lect of duty. FrellnßhuyKen nt Home. Newark, N. J., March 13.—Ex-Secretary of State Frelinghuysen has arrived at his home in this city. He came directly from Washington to Newark, and was found com fortably seated in his library. Ashe went on carefully assorting a lot of pajjers he cour teously but firmly declined to be interviewed at any considerable length on the subject of ixjlitics. He, however, expressed the great est confidence in the integrity of the new administration, while.’ of his successor he spoke in the kindest and most complimentary terms. He referred to a long and intimate acquaintance with Secretary Bayard, and paid a glowing tribute to the latter’s fitness for the position he has been called upon to occupy. Mr. Frelinghuysen expects io re main in Newark indefinitely, and as soon as some routine matters in connection with his retirement from the state department are disposed of, he will devote himself to his law practice, which was abandoned to accept the position in the cabinet of the late adminis tration. AMONG THE STRIKERS. Everything Quiet Along the Line of the Railroad*. Sedalia, Mo., March 13.—The strike at this point still continues and the fifth day has passed with no signs of weakening, either on the part of the strikers or that of the com pany. Good order prevails among the men and all attempts at boisterous conduct arc promptly discountenanced. The excitement caused by the report that state tn ops were coming has now died out and the strikers place a great deal of confidence in good re suits that will accompany the mediations oi General Jamison and Governor Marmaduke. An attempt was made to run a freight out of the yard, but on request of the strikers both the fireman and engineer refused to w’ork. Everything is very quiet and orderly, in fact, there are very few people to be found on the company’s property, and those who arc there are for the purpose of guarding the property. Dallas, Tex., March 13.—1 tis reported here from Fort Worth that all the Western Union telegraph operators in Texas, whether employed in the Gould system railroad offices or in general commercial offices liave betm ordered to go out on a strike, and that oper atives in Kansas City, Chicago and other large cities will be ordered to aid those who strike. This report has not been corroborated at Dallas, and how reliable it is is not known. St. Louis, March 13,—The strike situation remains unchanged. The troops now at Cen tertown have not yet been ordered to Se dalia, and are reported anxious to return home. The railroad people are much dis posed because the state authorities dont in terfere and send troops into Sedalia, while the temper of the citizens of Sedalia is such that outside interference will h<* accepted very reluctantly. This is because of over whelming sympathy for the strikers. In Texas the situation remains unchanged, with little prospect of a peaceful solution except by a restoration of w’ages. Ordered to Turn Back. Arkansas City, Ark., March 13.—Gen. Hatch has received an official dispatch from Camp Russell, Indian Territory, saying that 800 boomers from Texas and Arkansas are moving westward across the Sac and Fox re servation.

SUPPRESSING EVERY EXPRESSION OF LOYAL SENTIMENT. MysteriouH Female Dynamiter who Is Tired of Her Work —Good Cheer Between Germany and England—After a Husband —All the News, London, March 13.—The Dublin corpora tion will decide whether a loyal address shall be presented to the Prince of Wale® on his arrival in that city on the Bth of next month. The extreme nationalists want to stifle every expression of loyal sentiment, as they fear that such expressions will discredit their statements of distress and discontent in Ire ■ land, and strengthen the argument that they are only professional agitators, who do not I represent the real feeling of the Irish peo ple. They fear, however, that the motion for the presentation of an address will lie adopted by means of a coalition between the tory and moderate home-rule members |of the council In order to coerce , the moderates into voting against the address, mass meetings have been held this evening in all the wards having home rule representatives in the council, and the i councilors have been solemnly warned by ; resolution that if they vote for doing homage to the “foreign potentate” who is coming to Ireland they need never look for re-election by their Irish constituents. Mr. William | O’Brien, the pugnacious editor of United ; Ireland and nationalist member from Mal i low', seems to anticipate that the council will vote the address, and is already making preparations to convene an indignation meeting in Phoenix park next Sunday to de nounce the servility of the council’s action. It is needless to say that Lord Mayor O’Con nor, who has experienced a change of heart regarding the appropriate reception of the Prince of Wales, will not preside nt next Sunday's meeting, as he did at the meeting held at the same place last Sunday week to bei: to the speaker of the house lor susi>end ing Mi*. O’Brien. The Dynamiter*. Paris, March 13.—“ Kate,” the woman im plicated in the dynamite outr ages, has left for Uma. Since the Loudon explosion she bad bon living quietly and miserably in a hotel near the Model in**. She is a woman of about thirty, with delicate features, worn j and jaded by night vigils and anxiety. She dresses rathox* showily. She is respectably connected. Her real name is Mrs. Moran, j After refusing interviews to several English papers, sue was persuaded to suy a few words. She declared that, though a violent hater of English misrule, she means to sever her connection with the dynamite scheme. She considers that she has served hex* time as a dynamiter faithfully, but has very little remuneration to show for her dangerous work. “I don’t acknowledge that I have had any hand in any explosions,” said she. “Yotx may make what guesses you like about that, but I am certainly a member of Section C.” Kate fears after all that little gotxl will re sult to Ireland from the explosions, but skep ticism seems to proceed less from reasoning than from disgust at the sliabby way in which she has been treated by her fellow cbm spirators. “Several of us,” she explained, “have been left here penniless and in mortal fear of l>e ing unable to pay our hotel bills. A com parativxdy large sum was remitted for me, but never reached me. The Amer ican com mittee. insists on having the control ot ail the funds. This is the consequence. I don’t ac cuse any member of the directory on this side of the Atlantic <f fraud, but there ought to be a separate fund here, and Mi cliael Flannery, backed by two other’ in Hu bers, has determined tlxere shall be.” Being further pressed, “Kate” said she dis appro ve<l of O’Donovan Russa’s bragging. She also remarked that she thought it would be more dignified to blow up places like the tower or the houses of parliament. “Nor am I the only one of us over here who thinks so,” she said. t h; The Sooloo Island*. London, March 13. termany ha® given a practical proof of the era of good feeling which is no said to be re-established between herwdf and England by signing the protocol defining the rights and sovereignity of Spain in the Souloo Archipelago. This document was to be signed at Madrid last ) joem ber by Senor Elduayen, the Spanish minister of foreign affairs, Count Von Solms-Honnen walde and Sir Robert B. D. Mortal’, the Eng lish embassador. At the last moment Count Von Solms-iSunnenwalde stated that he had been instructed by the German government to insist upon special rights of freedom of navigation and trade in Borneo being accxjrdod to Germany in return for ber recognition of Spain’s sov ereignty over the Sooloo Island Sir Robert Morier at once recognized this as a stroke at England over Spain’s shoulder, as the Eng lish commercial interests in Borneo are much larger than those of Spain. Sir Robert re fused to consent to the German demand and the negotiations were abruptly ended. The matter has since remained in abeyance until now, when the protocol as originally drawn has been signed by Germany without any stipulations about Borneo to hurt tee feelings or the pocketa of. Englishmen. The Infanta of Sf ain. London, March 13 —The infanta Isabella, of Spain, is to make a visit to Germany in May, and is to be received with courtly honors almost equal to those extended to her younger brother, King Alptonso, during hi* visit io the German capital in 1883. The in fanta, who is not yet thirty four years old, has been a widow more than thirteen years. She was married at the age of sixteen, during the last days of the reign of hex’ mother, ex- Queen Isabella, of Spain, to Prince Gaetan, Count of Girgenti, but he lived less than foux years after the marriage.

Defendants Senteiucil for Chantlzlng an Alleged (iosaiper. Washington, March 13 —The hearing in the case of W. A. L. Gresham, Hubbard T. Smith and Win. H. Ruff, so- assault on Al bert D. Gihon, son of medical d’rector A. L. ■ Gihon, of the United Stat s army, brought i out the fact that quite sori his scalp wounds ! were indicted on Gihon, who is only nineteen i years of age, and owing to recent repeated | sicknesses, not at all strong for his age, bji Mr. Gresham, who is tw mty-seven year? old, and regarded as an athlete. While test* fying in his own beh defends nt Gresham said that he novar chaitar. ,e I G ihon, but sent word that he would cha .ise him unless he would apologize for what he said at the thea ter. He gave him the privilege of receiving iiis chastisement in a private room or in public, as he wanted it He said the chastisement, if given in a private room, was to be with boxing gloves against j ..is (Gihon’s) l>are knuckles. This called forth from Judge Snell the remark tat “these fas tidious dudes of the present day have so many fastidious notions that there ought to be some reasou for demanding an apology.” Two ladies testified that not only Gresham, but Smith, who is apparently about thirty five years of age, struck the boy with what seemed to them to be sticks. The medical evidence was to the effect that the wounds were evidently inflicted by a blunt instru ment In his brief decision Judge Snell said the law does not give any ni ’n the right to force ‘ a combat on his own tex’ins. lie regarded Smith as having with Gresham participated in giving blows to the young man. There could be not doubt bu .‘ that all parties con tributed: to an illegal act* and the ladies say , that Mr. Ruff said, “Give it to him,” arid he held that all three were guilty of the xtssaulb, but not all equally so. The assault by Gres ham was a serious case. He made the sen j tence of Gresham sixty days in jail, aild a . fine of SIOO each of the others. The ca>« was appealed, and security being given- tlve defendant® were released. Forger (’aught. Desoto, Mo., March I 3 -Egbert M.
