VICE-PIUMIIIBNT AUTHIT.il. \MiHiiiNOTOK , July 4. Yico Prcsi- danfc Arthur spent the entire day at the .residence icf Senator Jones who .occupies part of a large granite jnan- ' 'on built some years ago by Geiibral Ben. Butler. The house ins n com manding position niul is one'of the ob jects of interest of nrchitcctured art of the city. Mr. Jones has had ups and downs as a minim ; capitalist , but it is .now understood ho is swimming in a flood tide of prosperity. Ho .certainly .keeps house iin a style whioh .suggests the .millionaire. Gen. Arthur received calls from a Jorge .number of persons fcntl was ac ccesiblo to nil. His manner was com posed and Signified and allowed little ai ns of .feeling of the responsibility which.oppresses his spirits. Senator Jones flays he is overwhelmed by the fionsa of his position oaiUbors under great excitement. He .said in an in terview that this crisis waa-something ( that Jio liad not contemplated in ac cepting ithe oflico of vioe-prcBident. The contingency of President Garfield was -slight to his mind that lie had mover given the subject of succeeding to iho presidency a serious consideration. Ho of course had nothing to say about his possible poMcy in the event of President Gartiold's death. Ho would at once assume tlo ollico , us directed > by the constitution , nd would take liis oath , but could not nay what lie would do at nn execu tive. Ho s.poke of the trr. edy witli tho. deepest unfeigned hot-par , and his whole bearing impressed those who called upon him as a man who rec ognized the mighty responsibility with which Jio was brought face to face. 10 p. in. , July 4.

Ptilao rote souiowliat lu'gher than usual , nut Jias fallen again. It is now 124. Gen. Sherman who Jias been up to the sick room just told the presidents son , Harry Garfield , who is waiting in the anti-room , tLat iho president is a little Ijctter. WASHINGTON , July 5 , 4 a. m. The president is apparently comforta ble , his breatliiiii ; is natural and there are no indications of an unfavorable clunge. WASHINGTON- , July n. 0:30 : p. m. The temperature of the president has subsided slightly inc < 3 the last bulle tin. The report that lie is delirious is untrue. The attendants are not alarmed and continue hopeful. District Attorney Corkhill believes that the assassin is endeavoring to add to the mystery and to complicate mat ters , so aa to cover up the crime , Corkhill laid the matter before an in formal meeting of the cabinet lust night , ami was instructed to proceed to investigate as fully as possible , A local detective and Chief Brooks , ot the secret service , wore on hand and had n hasty consultation with Coik- liill. Immediately afterwards de tective McD.ivitt left the city on it train going cast , WASHINGTON , July [ 5. Gnitcau has been in thu city s'inco the 4th of March. Ho has been noticed many times haunting the portico of the ex ecutive mansion and entrances to the grounds. TJip coachman of the president says Guitcau visited the sta bles several times and asked many questions about the horses and hours he took his drives. On Friday before the commUsion of his murder ous purpose Guitcau passed through parts of the White House and asked if the president MTOJ in , On being answered in the negative ho asked if ho wasont riding , and being answered in the aftirmativo , lie slouched away in the direction of the gateway. Cpok , special district attorney , was interviewed in relation to whether there were any facts to show that Guitcau had any companions or asso ciates , said that there are not any facts , but there have been statements from person * present at the time of 'the shooting which , if correct , "would tend to indicate two more persons were aware of his intentions. The length of time during which he ap pears to have .entertained the purpose to assassinate the president , his prepa rations for the assassination including the purchase of a pistol of dangerous character , his preparations fur flight , Mid leaving behind papers that might become the basis of n pica of insanity , allscom to indicate n sound mind , lie may boanontlutsiastornfnnatic.bat en thusiasm or fanaticism is not necessari ly an accompuameiit of insanity. The whole act appears to bo ono of the reckless dcspravity rather than the deed of an insane man , but this is to bo carefully and impartially examined , and will be. The present is not the time to form any definiio conclusion even as to his mental condition. This can only bo done under the regular manner and law , but to mo it seems a startling anil dangerous proposition to assuiuc that when the first ollicer of the nation is stricken down by thohaml of an assassin to say that ho is insane , whether the president dies or lives , we ought to take time ami natiuuco and persistantly persuo the investigation to arrive at the Ultimate truth ami to suspend all final judg ment until this is done and thus to fe n a careful and justopinion. Thu time lias come when perhaps this nation is to bo saved from acts of desperadoes ami villians. At the same time any really unfortunate imbecile must bo treated with proper and Aviso consideration. One of the evidences referred to as supporting the idea of a conspiracy is the testimony of C.itter a volunteer stranger witness who was at the station , at the time of the shooting , and saw two suspicious men in ear nest conversation in the depot just before the occurrence He stated that ho went to the jail and when ho got there the prisoner was lying on his bed , with the bed clothing over him and ho saw him at a great disadvan tage. * Ho did not think at the tirsl glance that it- was the same man until he put his hand up to stroke his bean ! in a peculiar and nervous manner , which he recognized at once. Ho thinks however that if lip should be dressed in the same clothing howoro at the time at tlio shooting and the same hat it would make considerable difference. Humors touching , the present loca tion of tlio assassinator of the Presi dent are again rife. The police au thorities are very taciturn in response to inquiries about him and when they speak , generally avoid the subject. There seems to be an impression that he is not in the jail but has been re moved to the iron-clad Passaic , which is lying in the eastern branch. This rumor ciicnlated yesterday was at first doubted , but the significant remarks of one of the chiefs of police force when a reporter asked him if he was uo ; apprehensive of the lynching ot Guiteau , lie answered : "They must swim the Potomoc to get him , " and the fact that fourteen uiaries had been ordered to the Fassaic gives additional argument to substantiate the report that for the purpose of preventing any lynching tile autlioiitics decided to remote him from , jail to some unapproachable point. The chief of detectives , Capt. Vernoiijin conversation this afternoon caid we have nothing to do with it. When wo turned him into jail wo did all our duty called for. He is now ju the bounds of the warden of the jail and under immediate ordurs as far as the locality is or as to where ho may bo located , of Attorney-General JjtlcVcagh. Whether ho is in jail erin in the PaRsaia I don't know now. WASHINGTON , July 5. 3Irs. Garfield - field read an afternoon paper to the president , and when she reached a paragraph to the effect that the at tempted assassination was armni'cd by i gang of inspirators , the president refused to believe it. Ho took much interest in the reading and Boomed grateful for the universal sympathy said to exist for his condition. VEIIY UNCOL'IlACUNn. , July 5. The presi dent's temperature is down to 100 and his pulse is much less violent. Ho lias taken some chicken broth and re tained it. The symptoms apper to bo in every way favorable. The whole household are greatly encouraged. WASHINGTON , July o , OtfO ; i. in. An official bulletin has just been issued us follows : The president hai passed a comfortable night and his condition this morning is decidedly more favor- able. There has been no vomiting since last evening at 8 o'clock and ho lias been able to retain thu liquid nourishment administered. There is less tymponities and no nbdoinonal tendencies except in the wounded region Pulse 114 ; temperature 100 ; respiration 24. ( Signed ) D. W. BLISS , J. K. JUllNEH , J. J. WooiMVAiin , ItOIiT. IlKVHUUN. THU C11IH1S ALMOST 1'ASSKI ) , WASHINGTON , D. 0. , July 5. Last night was ono of great suspense at the White Houbo , but morning has come with the president still ahvo and ap parently improved. Whether or not thorp has boon a marked improvement in his condition must bo left for med ical examination. The facts in the case are certainly encouraging. Last night the temperature of the patient was 101 , and pulse 120. It was diflU cult to conceive how any frame could withstand such a strain , and when at length thoio was n slight modification thu almost superhuman consti tution of the patient stood out as a factor that seemed equal to almost any possibility. So much was hope encouraged that the cabinet and other watchers went homo confident of the prosidont'spassingacomforjablonight , and some of them were expectant of more definite results in the right direc tion. Thomansion was so far deserted at that its midnight occupants were not more than a score , lion. Swain and Col. Rockwell divided their per sonal attention at the president's bed side. Ho slept soundly and without restlessness , at one time remaining asleep for an hour and a half. At daylight Dr. JJliss went to the pa tient's bedside and found him cheer ful as ever. His pulse was beating less rapidly and the temperature had diminished. Further examination showed that the symptoms of tymponities had entirely disappeared. Later the president > said ho felt nomoronaubt-a. Presently 10 asked for something to cat , and ivns given some chicken broth , which lie was able to retain. The first caller nt the White House was n member of the French legation , who cnma at 0 a. in. Mct-seiigors arrived early from the cabinet olllcers mid Vice-President Arthur. Kach larricd back encouraging news. At 7 o'clock Mrs. Blaine came nml was met by Mrs. Garfield with n smile that did not bclio her words when she said : "I have not lost my hope. " Private Secretary Brown was up bright and early and found the whole household in bettor hopo. Miss Mollie - lie Garfield and .Inmcs GarlloM went out. with Col. Rockwell nt 8 h'dock , showing the newly gleaned libpo and went on a short drive to infuse wasted strength. Surgeon General Barnes arrived nboiitS o'clock to take pint in the morning medical oxnnriiution. Dr. Barnes was very despondent last night and is almost elated at the favorable symptoms. Sir IMwnrd Thornton called at 8:20 : and hastened to soii'.l the hopeful news to England. KVEHVllODYATTlin WHITE HOfKK 1'EEI.- ING IIAI'I'Y. The physicians of course expected another reaction toward night , but since the president has HO far rallied from last night's unfavorable situation they do not fear the effect of another , Postmaster James and Sirs. James reached the white house at 8:35 : , and Secretary Kirkwood entered as the morning bulletin was being pasted in the cariidor. "Oh , I nm so gl.itl , " was his exclamation , nnd every oijo heard him said"amen. " Ncxtcamo Attorney- General MacVcagh and his wife. The head of the judiciary department were a confident smile as hi * , passed the stairs. Secretary Linpiun came along soon after nine o'clock. Ho too had heard the encouraging news nnd remarked to n friend : "I have just been told by one of the physicians that the president may recover. " WASHINGTON , D. C. , July 5-11 a.m The Prcsidcnt'a condition is still favorablo. His pulse is. gradually o- ilic ; down nnd the attendant spirits are rising accordingly. Still no voin- iting anil no increase of symptoms of tympanites. Among the later callers were Sei tors Allison and Bruce. o'Dio latter arrived in the city last night. Ho is firm in the belief that the president will recover Owe by one the doctors came out and went to their homes , Eactijwns very much more hopeful. Dr. Woodward said the patient had inado a wuiuler- fttl improvement during the night. Ho said the president was doing re markably well. Surgeon ' General Barnes said that ho' > , almost lost heart last night , but that ho felt greatly encouraged this morning. Dr. Bliss was nil smiles. Ho said there had been no more favorable vorablo period in the history of the president's case than the pryont. The cabinet ami physicians are greatly annoyed by some published report as to the president having had convulsions last evening and as to his delirium. He has had nothing in any way resembling convulsions and only a slight touch of delirium , and that was from the effect of medicine rather than from the injury. The pains in the president's feet and legs , and the present condition of the president give rise to renewed talk about probing for the ball. The physicians , however , do not intend to do anything in this direction unless the patient gains very much in strength. The continued incrcaso of favorable symp toms adds force to the'opinitm recently advanced by a well 'known surgeon here , not connected with the case. Ho says the ball penetrated in the right place and started in thu right di rection to penetrate the liver. There has been nothing , however , to show that the bullet has not turned aside. Might it not then bo lodged in the large muscles of the back. If eo the muscles may have closed over the ball , and this might cause the report ed pains in the president's feet and legs. If these are the circumstances the president's condition is an indica tion of a possibility of a long contin ued period of uncertainty as to the final result. 11:30 : a. m. The president has none of the unfavorable symptoms that were evident nt this time yesterday , and it is'hoped that a repetition of the severe reaction of last evening may bo avoided. 12 in. The pain in the president's feet and legs is subsiding , He con tinues to take nourishment and the symptoms are as favorable as lit 0:30 : a. m , WASHINGTON , D , C. , July 5. The following dispatch was sent by the surgeons in charge to the consulting physicians , Drs. Agnow.and Hannl- ton , EXECUTIVE MANSION , July 5. 0:30 : a , in , After you left the urgent symptoms continued. There was much restlessness , constant slight vomiting , and by 8 o'clock the pros. ident'H coudition was even more sorio'us then when you saw him. Since then the symptoms Imvo gradually become more favorable. AMEHKJAN KECUIIITIEt FIUMKK. LONI > ON , July 5. 3:15 : p. m. The market for American securities is firmer. The members of Mie London stock exchange received the report of President Garfiold's improvement and condition with extended cheering. CHICAGO , July 5. The Times this morning says , editorially ; "With the deepest sorrow The Times is con strained to inform the public that in ill human probability before the next issue of this paper James A. Garfield will have passed from this earth. Early lint evening the news became alarm ing and before midnight a representative - tivo of The Times was informed by the highest surgical authority that all liopos had been given up. There may Itavo been a benevolent intent in the bulletins sent out from the white 10U80 , but the bulletins were iono the less un imposition upon the public and an insult to public intelligence , " WASHINGTON , July 5. Seventy-two iours have now elapsed since the wound received and we fool encouragt ed this morning though , of course , ve don't overlook any of the perils that' beset the path to recovery.

RKYIU-UN. A NEW SENSATION. Washington , July 5 : Another sensation was created hero to-day by n strnnqo arrival at police headquar ters. U was nearly noon when n largo , peculiar-looking man. dressed as a tanner , and who carrieu n shot gun , walked up to thu sergeant's desk and asked for "Jim Blaine , and if ho lived there , " some onu in tins streets , lie said , had told him ho could find Ulaiuo there nnd said ho was anxious to see him. Ho had came to town yesterday and had boon look im : for Blaine nil night. "What do you want of him ? " ho was asked. "I have been specially ordained , " was the reply , "to shoot him ; nnd hero is the gun to do it with. " The visitor was informed that Blaine would surely bo in soon , and while the stranger was making up 'htotoiiiHl ' to wait for Blaine , the olli- coVmndd arrangements to capture the lunatic , for such ho certainly was. Ho gave his name as Daniel McNa- niiira , and said ho was from Prince William's county , Vu. An ambulance was called and ho was taken to the in sane asylum whoio ho wns found to bo a hopeless maniac. VK'K-1'IIESIPENT A11T1IUK AT THE WHITE _ _ HOUSE. WASHINGTON , July 5. Vico-Prosi dent Arthur stayed at the White House about half an hour , but it wns thought the president should not see him or anyone but his nurses till ho is stranger. The piesidont's condition grows more and more favorable. The vice-president looks careworn but walked erectly nnd seemed calm and collected. THE NAME OK THE SUITOSKP ACCOM- 1'I.ICE OF GUITEAU KNOWN. The name of the parson soon at the depot with Guitcau by the president is known. Ho has left Washington , and government officers are in this city in search of him. Collector Mor- ritt , who has some knowledge of these movements , says the search for the individuals docs not necessarily form the belief of a conspiracy , but Guiteau may have informed his supposed companion of his intentions. There are other unpublished facts which bear this out. ' THE HIKSIPENT HIMSELF CONFIDENT OK HIS IIECOVEKY. WASHINGTON , July D. Private Sec retary Browne is responsible for the statement that , the president is now confident of his recovery. Ho has never expressed a loss of hope in this direction , but has always determined to pull through. An expression of personal confidence , however , is a happy sign ' to his attendants , and adds now hope. For the first time since the shooting the president , this afternoon , saw his son JUII'.OH. Ho fihook hands firmly and assured him that ho was fooling much bettor and stronger. MIIS. ( lAliriELI ) HAl'l'V OVEU HIH IM- I'UOVEIl CONDITION. WASHINGTON , July 5 , The presi dent's first ejaculation this morning was to an attendant ; "Keep heart , 1 have not yet lost mine. " The presi dent's wound has begun to adhere. Airs. Garfield is radiant over the in creased prospects of his recovery. LAItUE NUMIIKllH OP CALLKUS AT THE WHITE HOUSE. There lias been a larger number of callers at the white house to-day than yesterday , owing , perhaps , in a measure , to n feeling that the intru sion was moro permissible ) under the improved condition of the president. All callers were tilled with hope , but at the same time the dangers yet to bo encountered are not lost sight of , IIICEAK1NG THfl NEWH TO HIS hONS. CLEVELAND , July U. Garfiold's sons , Irving , aged 7 ; and Abrnin , aged 0 , were kept in ignorance of their fath er's state until Sunday , when the news wan broken to Irving , who bore it manfully and dried the fast-flowing tears lest his youngerbrother , Abran'i , should discover his symptoms of grief. But Abnim , who hud no ticed the largo number of telegrams constantly coming from Washington , was not to bo kept in ignorance The Monday news was broken to him , and it was pathetic to see the eagerness with which the bjys awaited the arrival of messages from the white house , Realizing that the best thing for them was to remain in Mentor , they have not asked to betaken taken to Washington. Gai field's mother , who wns stopping at Solon , Ohio , with her daughter , Mrs. Larra- boo , when the the news was broken to her , in now with another daughter , Mrs , Trowbridgo , also at Solon. Postmaster Shonvin , of Cleveland , receives frequent dispatches from 0. H. Judd , telegraph operator at the white house , and forwards them at once to Garfield's mother. With the proverbial calmness of the Ru dolph family she listens to the read ing of the messages. The house is overrun with ruralists , who comu long distances to hear the latest nowst Gartiold's relatives recall the fact tha. except an attack of fever and ague when young , and an occasional touch of dcspopsia , Garfield never was sick ami always lived on plain , substantial food. Never indulged in lao ( suppers or rich food to which the average statesmen ut Washington are addicted , THE LEGAL COMMITMENT OK GUITKAU. A question lias been raised as to the legal commitment of Guitoau , the assassin. It is cleared up by thu oflioinl information that about fifteen minutes after the shooting of the president , Captain Yonnor , of the policy force , camy to the police court and stated that ho had consulted with Secretary Hlnino ns to the proper mode of proceoduro nnd was advised by Mr. lilaino to go to the police court nml got a warrant from .nitlgi ) Sncll for assault and battery with in tent to kill. The warrant was sworn out by Capt. Vcnnor and the commit ment was placed in his hands. Ho immediately committed Guitoau tote to jail on these papers to await the result of the president's ' injuries. The dead letter otlico will come into pos session of n letter that was received in this city last night , nddiesRcd to Chas. J. Guitcau , assassin , capital 'prison , Washington , D. 0. The post mark shuns that the letter wns _ mailed at Iloston , A dark line is drawn around the edges of Iho envoi- opo with a pen , giving it the nppenmnco of mourning. The money order investigation in tlio post otlico department is mndo for thu pur pose of ascertaining whether or not Guituau received any money orders as he says ho expected. It resulted in the discovery that Guiteau had hail olio money order cashocl in his proper nnmo. This order was issued by the Now York City p st oflico nn the 20th day of March , to 0. A. Bryan , nnd in favor of Clias. .1. Guileau. The order was. for 82o , and wns cashed in Washington on the 21)th ) of March , Guiteau himself drawing the money. The New York city postotllco authorities Imvo been informed of the order and will proceed to find out who Chas. A. Bryan is and for what pur pose ho was sending Guiteau money. As Guiteau was applying lor n good appointment in the latter part of March , it is hardly to bo supposed ho had then conceived the idea of assas sinating the president. A registered letter was receivedaddressed to Chas. F. Gaintor at this post oflico within the last few weeks nnd delivered. With , the exception of the money or der from Bryan , this registered letter , which contained money , had thoiiamo nearest to that of Guitoau which can bo found on the records. Rev. Rush A. Shippon , pastor of All Soul's church here , and a former follow boarder of Guiteau , speaks as follows : "I sat at the end of the table and ho sat nt my right , and very often wo were nlono at the breakfast table , both of us being early risers. Ho roomed upon the same floor with mo. His movements nt the table were bent on helping himself nml ho never assisted the ladies around him. Ono ot the ladies once remarked that she believed in Conklinir , when Guiteau spoke up and said ; "Iain glad to hoar you say so , lor I bolipvo in him , too. " Ho never said anything to mo in re lation to the consulship. EXrUESSIONM Ol' CONDOLENCE.
