The action of the heart Is still very fohlo nnd responds imper fectly to the remedies administered to him. The attack came almost without premoni tion , a slight feollng of fnlntness bolng the only thing which warned the physicians tiiat the crisis might bo at hand. Up to about ten minutes to n the general $ ad been doing very well , and the family were lu cheerful spirits nt the strength nnd interests In passing events shown by the sick man. No symptoms of the rccovercnce of the failure of the valves of the heart to properly ' ; close had appeared , and as the attack of the day previous had occurred In the morning , It wasi hoped that ho would quickly rally and become better able to meet any future dangers. As soon as it became evident , however , that the valvular failure of the heart had again set In , they saw that their cherished hopes sf a successful day would not bo real ized. Everything possible was dnno for the patient , but with only imporlcct success. Digitalis and whiskey were administered , nnd linally n blister was put over the heart.

" At 8 o'clock ho hud recovered eomowhat from his attack and was getting on comparatively comfortably. Ho wns still tha object of earnest solicitude , however , and the doctors did not leave his side. Mrs. Sheridan also remained constantly near.

General Sheridan passed a comfortable day , took plenty of nourishment , spoke cheer- Jullv and hopefully , and generally did well until ton minutes before 5 o'clock thin morning , when the action of the heart "became very feeble , from which condition it lias reacted Imperfectly. At this time he Is .suffering . neither pain nor distress. Ho thor oughly understands , as lie and all his family uave done from the beginning , the gravity o'f the situation , but Is now ana has been quitn tranquil , undismayed and hopeful for the beet. beet.Signed ( ) R.

[ Special Telegram to THU Br.is.J-Tho Buddcn death of W. H , Sallo agent of the Pacific Express company nt this plucois still the subject of con versation all over the city. The young man was well con nected , having Influential friends in the man. ngemcnt of the company for which he Worked , besides being n brother of the ngcnt of the same corporation at Beatrice , in this state. These facts alone would warrant the concentration of considerable thought upon the circumstances attending the young innn'p ' dnath did not the seeming appreciation which , it Is known , ho cherished for a mar ried woman of this city lend nn nlr of sus picion to the occurrence. Sullo was twenty-six years of ago and had hold his position about sixteen months. He had previously acted as mcsseiiBcrfor thoPa- clflc , running between Omaha and Chey enne , a position which ho retained for a coupio of years. Naturally , Sallo is said to have been of a quiet , easy and retiring disposition , mid this peculiarity bun distinguished him both In his business and social relations since his advent to this city. Ho seldom associated with these whom ho might have readily selected as companions , nnd sooined disposed to keep his own company nnd counsel. Ho walked the streets like u man with n preoccupied - occupied mind , scarcely deigning to notice anybody nnd only recognizing parties when Bulutcel by them on the street and in hia place of business. When returning these solutions it would bo us if ho had been suddenly roused from a study , on which his Whole mind was engrossed. As n consequence quence , Sallo made few acquaintances , nnd these who through business relations nnd accidental meetings grow to know him , both by name nnd occupation , came to the conclusion that ho was certainly a mysterious creature. Some of these , bolder than others , and with a feeling of good fellowship , at In tervals , endeavored to Induce him to abandon his habits of seclusion and reticence and oven to ascertain what , if anything , preyed upon his mind which they could aid hi removing- . But all these kindly otllcos wore declined and resulted to no warming up of any of his ac quaintances on the part of the young man. Though In a comparatively milder form , the peculiarity was noted almost at the time of his appearance in this city , of recent months it has become moro pronounced. It attracted general attention among all who know , and oven people who met him. In the ordinary course of every day life. It was particularly noted by J. Phil Manz , the lead ing barber of this place , who endeavored in a most persistent manner to fathom the cause of the young man's gloom. But the attempt was not n success. At ono time Mr. Manz thought Sallo had said that ho wished bo was with his mother , 03 If absence from her had caused him to griovo. But , so far as could bo ascertained , there was no reason why his presence was required at homo. Then it was assorted that Sallo had been pushed to keep up his payments upon prop erty in Omaha which ho had contracted to buy. The land in question is supposed to bo six lots in Clifton place , the cost of which was § 750 apiece. Contracts lor such prop erty was found among his effects which call for semi-annual payments. A letter was also found from his father in Chillicotho , Mo. , offering to advance him § 1.000 , as if to aid him in his payments , but the offer was coupled with the announcement that it , would rather tighten the lender. This letter , however , bore date of November of last year , but there was nothing among his correspondence to show that ho had recently been annoyed by a fear of his inability to make his payments. The moro people have considered these pe- culiaritiostbo more of them they have noticed , until finally , they reached the conclusion that Sallo had begun to drink. This inference was drawn from the fact that ho had been seen in a shaky condition on ono or two occa sions , though these who knew him best , felt that Sallo had not resorted to the bowl. Bo that as it may , his actions for the two weeks preceding his death were both unusual and inexplicable. Ho roomed with n druggist , George F. Sellers , who testified that Sallo last week acted as if ho were sick and refused to go to bed , contenting himself with a lounge in the room. Shortly before this he had made a purchase of morphine , which , however , hoconccaled from his room rnato.tho drughaving [ been obtained from another phar macist. Whether the sickness referred to was occasioned by the morphine , or whether ho had ut all taken the drug nns not been dis closed. Nevertheless , on Wednesday night last he slept at the Huwo house , and slept so soundly that it was -1 o'clock in the after noon of Thursday when ho awoke. His fail ure to appear nt the ofllco on Thursday morning , nnd the Inability of his friends to find him led to n telegram being sent to the headquarters of the Pacific express company in Omaha , and in consequence E. W. Bennett was sent horn to look into matters. The accounts wore ohcckod up and every cent re ceived was accounted for , oven a collection which ho had mudo late Wednesday evening : , The fact of Snllc's not appearing on Thurs day reached the editor of the Herald , of this city , and accordingly , yesterday morning , a paragraph appeared noting his mysterious disappearance. Sallo , however , wns scon Thursday night. Ho supped at the Kuwc , and appeared at the Now York house about 10 o'clock , when ho registered. Ho left the hotel , was seen there again a short time later , going out nnd returning by the ladles' entrance , between 12 and 1 o'clock in the morning , when ho was escorted to his room. Next morning ho was found dead. Before registering at the Now York ho had bought his morphine , the quantity being twenty grains , though there was no means of deter mining how largo a dose ho had taken , When ho retired , Sallo was not d runic. Ho had not boon on a drunk , and the tlieofy that ho hod taken the drug to overcome the effects of excessive liquid Ir.unlgoneo Is therefore untenable , No 'nor [ s there sufllclont rcnz n to believe that ho was addicted to ibo mor- pll.iie habit , because there is no proof that ho had made moro than two purchases of the drug , and if ho hadn't Intended to muku n violent disposition of himself ho would have carefully ascertained from the druggist how largo a close ho might take without Jeopardiz ing his life. The fact that ho purchased his morphine from another than his room- imito showed that bo felt the latter would not soil it to him and would perhaps have taken steps to prevent tno consumma tion of his act , The leaving , too , of the key of the oftlce and the combination of the sateen on the counter on the night of his disappear ance , evidences n disposition to In no way hamper his employes by his hasty disappear ance. That something conduced to the despond ency of Sallo is generally admitted. His spiritless conduct was too pronounced to bo accounted for on natural grounds , nmtumong these who knew him best are many who explain - plain it ou the ground of his great attach ment for n man led lady In this city. Thia attachment has existed for more than a year. It was most pronounced , nnd no attempt was made to oonccnl it. Both ho and Fhuwero scan in company for hours at a time , at her place of business , a restaurant ut which Sullo boarded. It ia said that they went out riding and attended concerts together. It is also known that when Sallo was not actively en gaged in bib ofllco , bo could bo found ut the restaurant , where bo seemed to enjoy perfect contentment. On the ilrst of this month the boarders were dismissed to unable the Ice cream biinmeis to bo recommenced for the season , Shu * that time Suite's despondency has bcei : moot pionounccd He took hid meals nt the line house , a fo\v feet from the restaurant , while his room was on the same slrt-ot with tbt > latter and but two lots away. Sallc's devotion was public property. It was commented UJMJH everywhoio , and friends of Ins twitted him about it ami udvisod him to dhcontinuii it. One of those friends , noting thin devotion , sail ] to Sallo ; "Then , will soimithiiiff wrong coino out of thU , and you'll sec. it loo.

May 20. 1 It developed In the caucus of the repub lican members of the house this afternoon that It is not at all certain that there will bo n republican substitute offered to the Mills bill In the lower branch of congress. On the contrary the speeches Indicated that the sub stitute business will bo left entirely to the somite. The Ilrst struggle will bo over the free wool section. Free wool will bo reached within n wcok after the bill Is taken up , and should It bo stricken out will take all the Ufa from the measure and may have the effect of its friends pormltting every conceivable amendment us many say will bo done and then the bill may receive the support of many republicans and pass. As the bill now stands It would likely bo defeated by a ma jority of from two to four. After the dls- cusslon under the flvo-inlnuto rule has pro gressed a week or two the republicans will prepare their bill If they think It advisable. The work under the uvo-tniuuta rule will progress on Monday next , the pending appro priation bill standing aside for awhile , Dur ing the national conventions the tariff Is to bo shelved and appropriation bills con sidered. A PI.AO OF TOUCH AT THB WIItTn HOUSE. There has been considerable surprise ex pressed by prominent democratic politicians outside of Now York at the strange change of front on the part of the administration towards the Hill democracy in that state. The selection of Murray , a warm personal friend of Governor Hill and ono of his most ardent henchmen , as chairman of the Now York state committee , Is unaccountable to many , especially as at the convention to choose delegates to Chicago the administra tion machine was supreme and Governor Hill's ' friends were loft in the lurch. A democratic politician of national reputation , and who is close to the Bide of the president , said to-day , in speaking of the matter , that a careful survey of the state of Now York , after Governor Hill's veto of the high license bill had convinced Colonel Lauiont and the president that the sooner they gave up the idea of decapitating David the better it would bo for the administration. The ontlra foreign elements have rallied so strongly around Governor Hill that any attempt to leave him out ot consideration as a controll ing element in Now York politics would bo impossible. As a result a truce has boon called , and the olive branchof peace has boon extended to Governor Hill and ho will have the ailinlnUt tUn. S ? p5r y f0r. a nomination. MISCKLI.AXEOUS.

Members of the ways and moans committee - tee next laid before the caucus a formal prop osition that had been made by Mr. Mills to dispense with dobuto on the tariff bill under the flvo-iniuuto rule ana a long debate en sued. At the beginning several member * favored the acceptance of the proposition , but in the end they were Induced to Join in making the action of the caucus upon the subject unanimous. It was disclosed during the debut o that the general sentiment of Urn caucus wns that if the republican tariff bill should bo formulated it should fully and em phatically rcpieocnt the republican policy- pro tcctlnn. Mr. Kelly vigorously protested against the formulation of any bill , and other members argued that it was not reasonable to roquJro the minority p.u-ty to submit a bill which iiLTessarlly would not fully meet the views of the members of that party , but must bo con structed with a vlow to Bocurlng sufllciont Btiaiitfth for Its passage from the majority party.
