There is little or o charge in the condition of trie Archishop for the last twenty-four hours. The temperature tLis mornins; at 10 a. m. was ten degrees. At this hour it is ninety-nine degrees, seven less than on Friday. He eets very quietly anil takes nourishment reely. There is still some hope that he may ally. He 18 now over eisaty-three years old, and ? present attack of paralysis is his fourth j. A pr3on very rarely survives a third tack, and owing to this fact and to the adanced age of the distinguished prelate, it is evident that his life is slowly but surely ebbing away.

A SenMitlonnl Story. Cleveland, 0., June C As S. T. Hojt, a conductor on the Lake Shore Railroad, was walking up Superior etreet at no yesterday, he was stopped by & stranger. "What 'Jo you want?" asked Hoyt. . "I want your watch," was the cool reply or the fellow, who at the same time made a catch for a heavy gold watch chain that depended from the conductor's vest Tbe linia of . the chain were wrenched apart, but . the watch remained in Hoyt' a pocket.. Superior street was well filled with people at tbe time, but the affair waa conducted so unostentatiously teat very few ptdettrianc noticed the affair. Beirc foiled in the attempt to secure the watch the man walked coolly, and deliberately away. Hoyt at once poioted the man out to an oillcer. who followed him up and airesWd him. At the police station tbe fellow gave his name aa John Bick. He raid be came from Loudon ten days rgo. where he bad ?pnt seven ycais in pripon for robbery. He was sent rre by the St. Charles Christian Society. "When aiked how that wa?, he said: "Well, vou fte 1 had lo be eeni from Portsmouth Prison to 1 .reden to be disciiarsfd. I was taken in La.-d at once by the S ciety, and told tba' if I joined the Society I would be 8llowtd jLO for good cordnct instead of Jt-J. I was on ttcket-of-leave-frr eighteen months after 1 left prison, end tinder police aurveilIt nee for five years, and when tbe Society wanted to ship me to this country of course I came at once."

"A I'rcat many men ere sent to this country in the seme iuaDner, aren't they ?" "A good macy. You see they don't like o leave the old country, but they are allowed more money by the Government if they do, ard seenre a free passage from the Christian Societies. This is some little inducement, but nothing in comparison with celling rid of their ticket-oMeive and avoiding police surveillance." The man was bound over to the Common Pleas Court. ' HUt IS a-OK LOLISK. Every Xflort Made by Intlaentl&l Friends, lint to No Avail. TAnis, June 2i. Strong efforts have been made to secure some mercy for Louise Michel, but apparently without efTect. Her friends (and some of them have been influential', were very earnest, surprised as they were by the sentence of six years' imprisonment and the subject of ten years of police surveillance. They regarded her sentence as due largely to her imprudent address to the Court, and feit eonie certainty of sf curing eiecutive "clemency. ".Delegation after delegation has endeavored to inlluence President ürevy in favor of a commutation or pardon, the last and strongest eiJort being made to secure her exile, the argument being that her absence from V ranee and her disassociation froiu the agitator of the Anarchists would be all that the Government could justly require, and would serve the Government to much better pnrpese than her constant and dingerous presence in French Jaile, where every attempt would be made to communicate with her, and where her presence would ba a sonstsnt sugcestion of revolution. M. Grevy has, however, been inexorable, and has denied every appeal, eo the condemned woman wili remain in Jail. The newspapers are making up subscriptions to ai.l in the support of the families of Louise and her fellow-prisoners, who have been sentenced to lon term-, of confinement. BOGl'S BONDS.

The Townsend boys, who were tried at the last term of the Circuit Court for alleged corn stealing, an account of which appeared in the Sentinel,' seem to have gotten into a wrangle with another of their neighbor, and sensational developments are expected. It appears that David Coy. a neighbor of the Townsend family, baa incurred their ill-will, and the parties have been armed for some time, erpectitg a hostile meetinf. Last week three affidavits were tiled against tbe Townsends for rlshiog cn Sunday, and for carrying concealed weapons. They, in turn, filed a complaint against Coy for exhibiting obf cene pictures, and the latter has been arrested and proposes to rntk a strong fight in defense. Tbe parties are all well-known in the County, and their trouble? are exciting tbe liveliest possible interest.

Then the military bands played Hail Columbia and the Governor declared the Mining and Industrial Exposition formally open. All exhibits are placed in tbe ball and consist of precious ores from every mineral producing district in the Territory coke, cereals, . fruits, native jewelry, woods and woolen fabnv, works cf art on wood and rawhide ix vegetable colors hundreds of years old, tie entiquitie s of three centuries, etc The afternoon waa spent in Indian game?, raciipr, etc. Everybody pronounced the opening! magnificent success.

From there he will cruise along tbe New England Coast, probably in the Dispatch, as far as Boston, and then to the Coast of Maine. He prefers to travel in this manner, as bo is more removed from tbe crowds, whose curiosity is not always pleasant to him, and because he can find more comfort than on a dusty railroad train. He can also better control his movements. The President intends to take a trip to the Yellowstone before he returns to Washington for the fall. This will involve a stop, undoubtedly, at some of the principal cities of the West. He has"alrady accepted an invitation for a reception in Chicago. The President has directed the War Department to escertain how best telegraphic communication can be bad with him in the Yellowstone cevtntry, for he is not disposed to be far from the end of the wire. The War Department is prepared to run a Meld telegraph, or connection can easily be made with the nearest ro ilitary post. He eigned to-day the commissions of four newly apt ointcd Collectors of Internal Revenue end ifsued letters of designation to the Collectors retained underktherecent.coasolidalion. THi; II ILL.

The Hill Investigating Committee resumed its session, and General Stinemetz continued his testimony relative to the cost of extra work by Bartlett, Bobbins : Co. cioi the New York Postoiiic. Coleman proposed to go into a detailed examination of the charges made for this extra work, with a view of showing that excessive charges had been made and allowed.

A PANIC IX BREAD STUFF j.
England Threatened With a Panic In the Grain Trade. London, July 1. A panic in breadstufis now threatens England. Its imminence is due chiefly to the cholera blockade against India. There seems to be no relief except from the United States, and Americans, because of the probability of an epidemic of Asiatic cholera, which will practically cut off the Indian supply of cereals, have before them the best grain market ever given a Nation. There are many elements in thi3 probable breadstuff panic which bode great ill to the large European eieculatora in human food. Nearly all the London East India houses that deal in cereals, by an apparently concentrated action, early in the spring took steps to forestall the American supply by securing comers in Indian grain. The reasons they alleged for their action were that they posseseed information showing that New York aDd Chicago speculators had arranged t secure in advance the control of the .iiLttican grain supply for the present summer, and that all reasonable meteorological 'eolations pointed to bad grain weather thiighout Eogland. They swarmed India with experienced buyers and bought up a monopoly of the present harrest. This is now reaped, and is oa their hands. The weatbt-r throughout England has turned out, contrary to calculation, to have been uncommonly fine for grain growing. The Suez Canal is practically closed, because of the absolutely necessary quarantine. Cholera is ravjgingtbe country on both sides of this necessary commercial thoroughfare and the people of that country, in a state of wild panic, are running for their very lives away from their avocations. Grain lies piled up in Bombay and Calcutta and in all the other Indian ports, with a prospect of rotting where it lies before other labor can be got to handle it or a way he found to get it to mar ket. At this very moment tbe holders of j grain at both Bombay and Calcutta are offer- j ing it at b ddera' prices, without finding takers, and tne speculators who find themselves in ceed of cash money are offering discount rates double those which ae usual duriDg even a monsoon. It is difficult to convey a full idea of the state of apprehension which exists in commercial circles here erected by tbe grain trade. The latter is ! threatened with absolute i analysis, and un less the cholera in and around Egypt is speedily suppressed or confined, the" most certain thing in Eogland is a great panic in the grain trade. The signs cf the impending crisis are already alarming in tbe Indian ports, where the grain trade is crushed, and where the dealers are being pushed to extremiuis for settlements. DOWN KAUF. A Coal Train on the Rochester and Pittsbare Road Breaks in Two on a High Grade Sixteen Persons Killed and Injared. Bra dfokp, Fa., July 1. About 3 o'clock this morning a ccal train with a passenger car attached on the Rochester and Pittsburg Railroad broke in two while going up a steep grade near Rassilas, a few miles south of Kinzua viaduct. The severed section consisting of seven heavily loaded coal cars and a passenger coach immediately started down the steep grade, and while going at tbe frightful speed of eighty miles an hour, collided with an engine of an approaching coal train. The passenger car was well filled, and the destruction of life and limb was appalling, eeven having already died from injuries and others fatally hurt. A relief train with th:eo surgeons and a number of employes of the Company on board was despatched to thesceneat 5 o'clock. As far as can be learned, the killed and injured are as follows: S. N. Tollie, aged thirtyfour, conductor, residing at Bradford, terribly mangled, died instantly; David Ford, brakeman, Bradford, both legs broken, fatally injured internally; Mike Downs, brakeman, Bradford, both feet cut off and fatally injured, d'el r. 4 o'clock this afternoon: George tjuinn, Bradford, traveling salebman, died on the relief train; Angelo Odone, an Italian laborer, instantly killed; W. S. Davis, Olean, Pa , terrible gash on head, supposed to be fatally hurt; L. J. McKee, Bradford, leg broken and injured about the abdomen, died at noon, while being carried into his house; Robert demons, Bradford, neck broken and body badly crushed, killed outright; James O'Connell.'Alton, Pa., dangerously injured; Joseph Ravella. Alton, badly hurt, probably will not recover; Mra. W. H. McCurdy and baby, Bradford, slightly cuu about the head and arms, child bruised; John Colin , Limestone, N. Y., tadly hurt on head; J. Eosway, several libs broken and severe contusions about tbe head; J. Cosmlilc, an Italian, a leg broken in two p'acej; R. Ccsmlllo, a brother, ribs stove in, and condition critical. Pop Downp, the engineer of the second train, was the only one hart in his crew. He saw the severed section approaching, and, after reversing his ergine, iunpd, iscapirg with slight bruises. Coroner Pannen impaneled a Jury, who visited the scene of the wreck by special t in to-day, and will take testimony and rend- r a verdict to-mcrrow. Mrs. McCurdy, who ai oi ly slightly injured, has made a statement, in which she says that tbe conductor and toih bratemen, who were in the car with her, were rsleep. It is not yet known to whom the blame is most to be attached. A CROOKED OFFICIAL. Further Evidence of Corrnption lu the Supervising Architect's OrHce. Wass ingtox, June 27. J. M. Wilbur testified before the Hill Inveetigatin Com nittee that he had an account aga'nst tbe Government for work done at the New York Pcstofiice. He presented the account to Hill, who said it was all right, but he ( Hill) ought to have something for settling old claims. He relerred witness to Sinnor, an employe in his office, who took him aside and told him thev ought to have 10 percent. for ettlire the bill. Witness d d not assent, and tbe claim was disallowed. Tne matler was considered by Congress, and the CoTnmittee on Claims made a favorable report. At the hearing before the Senate Committee, Hill appeared and opposed the claim. Upon cross-examination the witness said the reason he did not make a record of the conversation in which Hill asked for compensation for settling the claim was that he thought It rather a strange proceeding on the part of a Government official, but he was a stranger in Washington at that time, and did not know but such was the custom here. Hill did not ask for 10 per cent, but said he must fcave something, and introduced the witness to Gannon, who indicated that 10 per cent, was tbe correct figure. The witness considered Hill and' Gannon one and the same, aa far as the proposition was concjrred. The articles of the co-partnership between Gannon, Simons and Johnson were then put in evidence by tie prosecution. They bore the date ot 1874, and one atipulation was to the effect that in all contracts which might be obtained from any Depart-
ment, L. E. Gannon should receive ten cents for every ton ot stcne or material hauid by laid firm, which thould constitute his full share cf the profits from that branch of the business, but ia all other profit he should share equally with the other parties. The opinion of Assistant Secretary French, favorable to Wilbur's c'aim, was then put in evidence, as also the opinion of Sherman, which referred the matter to Congress for action. The witness raid he cal!el Hill's attention to the fact that Gannon was interested in a contract, and asked his dismissal. Subsequently he reported the matter to Assistant Secretary cf the Treasury McCormick, who removed (upon investigation) Gancon. Gannon then took the stand for the defense and swore to proposition had been made by him to Wilbur for 10 per cent, of his claim for passirg it. The firm he was connected with never had a contract with the Government while he was in the Government's employ. No reason was assigned for his dismissal freni the Department. The co-partnership, Simons, Johnson it Gannon, was dissolved before lliil becarno Supervising Architect. Hill then said a portion of the teitimoBV of Wilbur was true and part false. Never had any conversation with Wilbur in which it was said I would receive or permit any compensation be paid for settlement for a claim. Tbe charge of Wilbur was absolutely false. Adjourned.
