Mass meetings continue to be held all oyer the country and particularly in the South where congratulations on the President's re covery, condemnation of the blood thirsty wretch Guiteau, and condo lences to the President's family are about evenly divided. Messages by the hundreds from foreign magnates and rulers and domestic friends and ad mirers and the well wishes of either party are received. These are, when ever possible, answered by direction of Secretary Blaine whose services and advices have been invaluable for the past few days. The messages express always the deepest regret and sorrow and generally the tenuerest solicitude and personal interest which cannot but touch the recipient and reveal more clearly than by any other possible means t he deep seated love which tho "resi dent has awakened in the hearts of the people. . , . . DR. SUNDERLAND SAYS. At prayer meeting yesterday Dr. Sunderland gave an account of the in terview between himself and the Presi dent after the shooting. He was pass ing down Pennsylvania avenue at the time of the shooting. He rushed to the Depot and was permitted to speak to the president. He said: "Mr. Garlield, you are in the hands of God. You have long trusted and I say to you the heart of the whole people will go to (rod in prayer that you may be spared." The President calmly replied: "I know, Doctor, 1 believe in God and trust my self in his hands.11 ONLY ONE THING WORRIES HIM. At 11 o'clock the President seemed worried over but one thing, the im- iiossibillity of getting enough to eat. 2very function except his appetite is normal, and that enormous. He turned attention largely to it and good hu moredly asked if the doctors wanted to starve him to death, now that he is de termined not to die of his wound. MINISTER LOWELL NOTIFIED. Blaine notifies Lowell, London, that the President continues improving. Ev ery symptom t his morning is favora ble. EVEN THE LITTLE CHILDREN. Murat Halstead telegraphs that even little children on the streets arc con stantly asking news of the President. POSITIVE HOPE. A feeling of positive hope is preva lent. The President is improving stead ily. He has a good appetite, relishes food and wants more than the physi cians allow him. He is more cheerful than at any time. His wife's faith in spires him, and he quotes some humor ous Shakespearian passages. James exalts in his constant fail h. Hunt is still concerned but hopeful. WHAT GUITEAU SAYS ABOUT IT. Guiteau says: "This thing had been on my mind, and 1 could not sleep. Now that it's over, my only wish is that he may not recover and make the act fruitless. My mind would be perfectly at rest if he died, and 1 do not fear any consequences." The prisoner is appar ently cool and unconcerned. Officials of the jail think from his talk that he betrays no indications of insanity. Gui teau said to-day Ihat after buying the pistol he went down to the river to try and practice so he could be sure of fir ing a deadly shot. He fired twice, but tho pistol made such a loud report and kicked so hard he was afraid of it, and did not tire again. He would have fired the third shot, but believed the Presi dent dead, as he turned very pale and fell heavily. Assistant District Attor ney Cook does not believe the insanity story. Col. Angier, city postmaster, be lieves Guiteau has been receiving money orders from New York in his own or an assumed name. THE COOLING TROCESS BENEFICIAL. New York, fJuly 6. The Telegram's Washington special snys: The artifi cial means employed to cool the pa tient's room, consisting of stretched blankets kept filled with ice water placed between the window and bed and tho cooling air by constant draught proved very beneficial. The tempera ture was sensibly diminished as the cool breeze came into the room and struck against the stretched blankets. This reduction of the temperature was of the utmost importance, for the night was exceedingly sultry and the patient would scarely have rested as well as he did had not the temperature been kept down to a tolerable standard. The President did nofcsuffer in the slightest degree front nausea during the night. His sleep was refreshing and has bad the effect of giving fresh acquisitions of strength. 1 Tie result of an examina tion was as follows: Pulse ,06, two be low that of yesterday, temperature somewhat below 100 anaiTOSpiration 23. This was regarded as satisfactory. HANCOCK'S 8YMfATHY. , , Washington July General Sher man this morning received the following dispatch from General Hancock. I re ceivediyour dispatch andTthe morning papers seemed to, present . nothing ac curate its to the condition of the Presi dent, If an opporttiftaKimneiit hou4U orne, please express to the President my heartfelt wishes for his complete re covery. CONDITION UNCHANGED. Executive Mansion, 3 p. m. The President's condition remained substan tially unchanged since the last official bulletin. The slight increase in pulse and temperature since morning is said by the attending physician to be only the natural fluctuation of the fever from morning until noon. The President had eaten chicken broth to-day and expressed a strong desire about noon for toast and oat meal with milk. . The latter was given him as probably the least objectionable kind of solid food which he seemed to crave. FEARS FOR MRS. GARFIELD'S ITEALTH. Washington. July 7. Dr. Boynton arrived and will devote himself to Mrs. Garfield who it is feared cannot stand the excitement much longer, although she has borne up noblj-. PLUMB'S DISPATCHES FAVORABLE. New York, July 7. Senator Plumb, of Kansas, this morning told a reporter that his private dispatches :from Wash ington gave great assurance of the ulti mate recovery oft he President. CONKLING'S CONGRATULATIONS. Conkling sent the following telegram to Arthur this afternoon: "Please say to Mrs. Garfield fur me that to-day's reports are most encour aging, and I rejoice for the happiness they give her. (Signed) Roscoe Conkling." james' answer. General James replied : "The v ice President placed your telegram in my hands for delivery to Mrs. Garfield. I have complied with his request and Mrs. Garfield desires me to return her thanks for your kindly sympathy. SUBSTANTIAL SYMPATHY. Postmaster General James has a tele gram from General Wilson, Secretary oi tneiNew xort wiamber ol Com merce, who requests the Postmaster General to say to Mrs. Grafield that the members of the New York Chamber of Commerce have subscribed $250,000 to be presented to her, both as a token of their sincere esteem and sympathy, and as n means of relieving the mind of the President entirely from anxiety with regard to the future of his family. THE ANSWER. To this telegram Postmaster General James sent the following: lieo. Wilson üiSq., Secretary ot tho Chamber of Commerce Your dispatch was delivered to Mrs. Garlield on the receipt of it. She remarked that there was so much that was touching and beautiful in the sympathy of the people of the whole country that she did not dare to trust herself to think of it. SYMPATHETIC TELEGRAMS WILE BE PRE SERVED. The telegrams of sympathy which have been received will all be pre served. They make a big collection. Telegrams from foreign governments and rulers were nearly all addressed to Secretary Blaine. These will be kept in the records of the State Department. Those received at the White House will be put in some convenient form that they may be readily aecessable to the reader. CALLERS. Sympathizing callers to-day: Secre taries Kirkwood, Hunt, Windom, Lin coln, Blaine,Postmaster-General James, Attorney-General Mac Veagh, General Hazen, Victor Dunwood, in charge of tho British Legation; Count Camporall of the Italian Legation; . Col. Amos Webster, Col. O. IlT Irish and Repre sentatives Speer and Updegraff called at the White House this morning to make inquiries about the President. Representative Speer wanted to know if there was anything he coutd do for the President, and said that the people of Georgia are very much grieved over his misfortune. CONKLING MAKES A SUGGESTION TO MACVEAGH. Washington, July 7. The follow ing correspondence passed between ex Senator Conkling and Attorney Gener al Mac Veagh. Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, July 6. My dear sir. In the abhorrence which all decent men alike shudder at the attempt to murder the President, I have given thought to a matter to which Íour attention may or may not turn, our criminal code treats premeditated homicide in all cases alike, irrespective of t he victim. Murder being visited by the greatest penalty, perhaps no dis tinction between one case and another could be founded on public relations held by persons slain, but in this case of attempt at murder a broad distinc tion can be made between assailing the life of an individual and an attempt to take a life of special value to the whole people the shocking occurrence of Sat urday, I think, demands definition. The punishment of an assault on a high ex ecutive officers, whether successful or not, should be made vigorous. The man who attempts the lite of a Presi dent if morally responsible, commits an offence which the Nation ought to guard against and punish by the ex ertion of all the power a civilized nation may employ. I suggest this as deserv ing consideration. My profound sympathies are with the President and all of you every hour. The conflict of reports keep hope and fear striving with each other. Nothing stable except facts and trust that the worst is past. I wish you would ex press to the President my deepest sym pathy in this hour, which should hush all discords and enlist the nravers for ! his safe deliverence. Please also give Mrs. Garfield my most respectful con dolence..;. Trusting all will be well, I remain cordially yours," , Roscoe Conkling. M' VEAGH' 8 ANSWER. Washington, D. C, July 7. To Hon. Roscoe Conkling, Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York: - Thanks for your letter of the 5ih, which has just reached me. Its sug gestions will be carefully considered and its kind message of sympathy will be conveyed to the President and Mrs. Oarfleldnt the earliest opportunity. (Signed) . Wayne MacYeagh. RUSSIAN SYMPATHY. Washington, July 7. A dispatch to Secretary Blaine from M. Bartholomew, the Russian ambassador, now at New port contains the following: "At the time of a trial like that of the Presi dent's every authorized voice should be heard and that, of Russia, which has ever been the1 friend of the United States, could less than any other have been a witness officially to such a sad part which under the present circum stances I am called upon to perform, but I desire to give an unequivocal ex pression to National sympathy which will render public misfortune in the United States cause of affliction in Rus sia at a time when it is for Providence to decree whether consolation or mourning is to fall to the lot of the en tire country. It is impossible for me to measure my words according to cir cumstances whose issue is still un known. May God in His infinite good ness preserve the life of the President and in His omnipotence extend His di vine protection to the United States. LAST BULLETIN. , Unofficial, Executive Mansion, Wash ington, Midnight. There is no mate rial change in the condition of the Pres ident since the date of the last official bulletin. He is resting quietly. lew Trk Nenatorlal Contest. Albany, July 6. The Republican leg islators in to-night's call for a confer ence inserted a pledge that when sixty five or more Republican legislators signed it the signers would attend with all other Republican members who might join and vote viva voce for suc cessors to Conkling and Piatt. The candidates getting 54 votes out of 65 or more cast shall be the Republican can didates for the Senate, provided one candidate shall be from each of the principal divisions of the. Republican party. Less than sixty members were pres ent, therefore Hamilton offered a reso lution which recited that the possible consequences from a vacancy in the Senate and the precarious condition of the President, rendered imperative the election by this Legislature, although it had been unable to elcect for tive weeks voting, and inviting all Republican members t o meet in conference to reach an honorable understanding to-morrow evening. Skinner and Woodin believed the election of two Republican Senators would do much to make the President recover. This was the place to decide the battle, not at home. It was time to rebuke the wicked spirit that brought the President to the grave. Woodin urged harmony to-morrow night, and the Hamilton resolution was adopted. REPUBLICANS WILL CAUCUS. Fifteen Senators and fifty Assembly men were present at the conference to night. Phillips offered resolutions for a general call of a caucus to-morrow evening, and that a committee of three circulate the call and request the signa tures of fifty-seven members who voted for the resolution, making that number in favor of allowing a caucus. Subsequently sixty of those present signed and conferred. Adjourned. Robertson and some others demurred to the call, but in the interest of har mony signed it. The object of the conference to-night is to give Conkling ites a chance to go into caucus. If they stay out they must explain their incon sistency, and the session will probably adjourn Saturday, as the struggle will be useless. t.enerul Washington Sen. THE FIVE PER CENTS. Washington.

Threat to Ilnng Conkling. New York, July 7. Conkling is here but is moving rather mysteriously. A card left at tne hotel said: "We will hang Conkling to-night at 9 sharp." Conkling left the hotel at 8 and had not returned at 10:30. The Tribune states: His friends are very uneasy on the situ ation. Each entrance to the hotels in the city is supplied with a policeman, whereas ordinarily only one or two are on the sidewalk. Captain Williams, in citizen's dress, walks the main entrance for hours at a time. Inspector Thorne stood at the main entrance most of the time yesterday, while President French remained with Conkling. Police Com missioners Nicholas and Mason were also at the, hotel part of the time. In the corridor mingling with the crowds were policemen in citizen's dress. Oth er persons who bore the appearance of detectives were present and always hovering about where three or four A large stock of fine Kentucky Bour men happened to be engaged m convcr- bon lust received by Francisco Baca y itiuuu. x iir m.iih.-: uiiiviain immiiimi utfii there was any special significance to this remarkable display on a quiet day, when everybody was so anxious for the life of the President. French said the precautions were taken by Inspector Thorne on his own responsibility. Thorne said he had taken especial can to protect the hotel because it was n holiday and a time of great excitement, owing to the shooting of the President. As the hotel was a central point, it was desirable to have a number of police men there. Captain Williams was re ticent. The officials refused likewise to give any explanation of a mysterious meeting held at police headquarters the night before. Tne hotel men generally could not give any explanation of the display of the police force and the pres ence of detectives. One said, however, that threats had been made against Conkling's life, and he desired protec tion, as in case the President should die the people might become greatly excited. 3f nrderoiift Lunatic. TREBLE KILLED AND FLETCHER WOUNDED. Maysville, Col. July 0. The city was thrown into great excitement at six this evening bj' the murder of Caleb Treble and the serious wounding of Henry Fletcher by N. A. Brown, a jeweler. Only two snots were fired, one striking Treble in the neck and producing al most instant death, the other striking FHtcher in the face and producing a se rious but not fatal wound. Brown was immediately arrested. He declares the'1 shooting 'was accidental. Fletcher ' the ' wounded man says he does not know how it occurred. Some persons who are acquainted with Brown declare he is insane while others attribute it to a freak of a victim of the opium habit. There was no apparent cause for the shooting. "INSPIRED" TO KILL DOCTORS, LAW YERS AND LEGISLATORS. Dallas, Texas, July 7, John Madden, crazy, was jailed to-day for saying he was inspired to kill all the lawyers, doc tors and legislators. KILLS HIS MISTRESS AND SUICIDES. Pittsburg, July 7. Mike Kreisendorf er shot dead his mistress, Matie Smith, and then suicided. Intense Heat. Chicago, July 7. Items about heat come from all over the West. Several sunstrokes in Pittsburg, three fatal, ami work has been suspended in the mills. Ohio points have suffered greatly. Mis souri, Illinois and Iowa have liad ter rific heat. It has been very oppressive here. Telrg-rnphle Briefs. Conkling's vote in the New York Leg islature has fallen off to 30. There were twelve sunstrokes in New York on the 6th, one fatal, and ten oc curred in Brooklyn. German coal miners in England have commenced conveying coal to the mouths of the pits by electric wires. A frightful railway accident, in which seven persons were killed and twelve wounded, occurred on the Kentucky Central, twelve miles south of Coving ton, on the afternoon of the 4th.
