GRANT WRITES SPECIAL MEMO" THE QUEEN DISCUSSES POLITICS Philadelphia, June 18.—The old Lito-ty IksII, after an absence of several months, arrived in this city from New Orleans. A lar *e crowd of people gathered at the depot to witness the arrival of the sacred relic, which was accompanied by the mayor and other officials of the Crescent City, together with Mayor Smith and a committee of councilmen from this city, who proceeded to Baltimore to meet the committee having the boll in charge and escort them to this city. On reaching Germantown Junction the boll was placed on a decorated truck and taken to Broad and Diamond streets, where the military, police and firemen of Phi.adelphia were drawn up in line. The visitors having been assigned to their places the procession moved, beaded by a detachment of police and followed by the Centennial guards, of New Orleans, the city military, Philadelphia fire department, Irad Ferry fire company, of New Orleans, and tha Active Association of Volunteer Firemen, of Philadelphia. The procession, which numbered about 15,000 men, marched down Bread to Chestnut street, and-thence to Independence hall. Here the ceremonies of receiving the boil were held and consisted of appropriate addresses by Mayor Guilotte and others of the New Orleans committee, and a response by Mayor Smith, of this city. The-bell was then restored to its accustomed place among the other relics of the revolution in Independence hall.

The audience lasted two hours, which is nlraost unprecedented, as the queen's customary limit i'or political interviews, including those of the utmost importance, is twenty minutes. On his return the marquis' special train gob blocked by the long stream of excursion trains from the races at Ascot Heath, which is half a dozen miles beyond Windsor, and his lordship did not get back to his town house until nearly evening. Several of tho Conservative leaders \»3re awaiting him, an 1 another long conference was held, at which tho stipulations made by the queen were repeated by Lord Salisbury and formally ratified by the party chiefs. The gjneral foature3 of the interview between the queen and Lord Salisbury became known at tho Carlton club during the evening trom the conversation of members who had attended the conference.

Very soon he indicated by signs that he wanted some writing materials, which were procured for him, and he then wrote lor nearly half an hour. Uhe result was two letters or papers.

At 10:30 o'clock came the first s'gn that America had heard the news and was glad; a little tugboat, puffing with enthusiasm, came spinning down from the Battery and sidled up to the Isere. A short Frenchman on the Isere, with very small feet and a vory polite smile, bowed and waved his band to a small man on the tug, whrse feet and smile were almost as perfect. The first man was Commander Lespinasse de Saune, of th9 Iaore, and the second Adolph L. Sanger, president of the board of aldermen, appointed to do the first honorj. With bim were Gen. 8i ons and Mr. de Bebian. The alderman's tact, combined with Mr. de Bebian's French, was very successful, and soon everybody knew everybody else, and things were very home-like. The alderman praised the ship, the captain, the officers, and all the men, and knelt metaphorically at the feet of the statue. The captain and his aides, waving their arms through the fog, declared that America was a beautiful country, much loved by the French, and that Now York harbor was a home that any statue might be proud of. Everybody had something, and then everybody started on a tour to see how the goddess had stood the voyage. Barefoot sailors who moved as fast as the captain could talk rolled away a heavy black canvas, pulled up a trap door, and uncovered a big hole. A big lieutenant with a beautiful beard, removed his hat, bowed low to the alderman, and said, "Please jump." The alderman jumped, with all his escort after him, and landed in a warm, dark place. The second race was a selling purse o three-quarters of a mile: Marsh Rsdon first Jacobus second, Jesse Jame3 third. Time 1:80*. THE M9NEY WENT IN OIL.

The sunset' found him ■till on the piazia, and when the dusk ■ i dejpe.ied on the east side of the mountain he was yet sitting silently on the porch •t .one tide of the front door of the cottage. When lamps were lighted inside and the light screamed out into the growing darkness, the sick man was yetout».de, though the air was chill and a stiff breeze was swaying the pine tree tops. CoL Fred Grant, with the steadfast atlegiande to his lather that has been prominent during the genecel's long sickness, was by his side and Dr. Doog-as was near at hand. ' At length, after 8 o'clock, the general went inside the cottage and Dr. Douglas wrote'and aent a message to Dr. Sands in New Ybrlc. He asked him to come here as soon as possible. i At B o'clock the general retired, and Dr. Douglas then thought that his throat and rack appeared better than on Tuesday nifcht. It is possible that the general's walk tepted his waning strength too far, and the, reaction has brought to hiin a sense of weakness that he himself feels is not to be lightly disregarded. Whether hfs weakness U the immediate result of undue exertion or whether it is the weakness of reaction after his journey, is a question that the doctors only may presume to answer. Fanned by oool breezes and soothed by the eoCt rustling of many leaves. Gen. Grant lias spent a pleasant day. It was 11 o'clock Tuesday night before slumber visited the t» valid. The long journey had tired him so much as to renufer him almost sleepless. But an injection of morphia brought on a profound sleep. Dr. Douglas slept lightly lh hiaroomjnext the general's and Henry, thenwse, dczod in a chair close by. list I evening, while the rain rattled on Ifaeoettage roof, CoL Fred Grant hurried oat to the lent of the guard. "Is there any Sldlk in camp?" he asked. "A can came up with you from New York," was answered. , , "I know that, but the thunder has turned lit oil thick and sour and father is almost starved," returned Col. Fred. '"Ttjeir there is not a drop in camp," said the voteran in charge, following the colonel's vernacular, "but I can get some a couple at miles down the mountain." An. hpur later the general was taking his ooodensed beef in Alaerney milk drawn from • blooded oow in a lantern-lighted stable 1 lAoern tbe mountain side.. At 1 o'clock Hbere was astir in the general's room and Dr. Douglas was awakened by hearing him call "Henry" in a husky voice. The doctor hurried to his bedside and applied some cocaine to his throat. In Ave minutes the general dropped into a sound slumber, which lasted till morning, At 6 o'fclock the loud caroliug of robins from the trees whose branches almost swept the cottage awakened Gen. Grant. There was • brighter look on his face than his attendants have seen for many days as he listenei to the songs of the birds. The slanting ravs of the sun danced cheerily in upon the soft gray carpet with ite quaint-looking patches. The morning was clear and almost oold. Dr. Douglas soon came in and dressed the geniral's llii-oat, which the invalid {Xtrwok of his usuai nourishment. It was a ohderful group that gathered around the family breakfast table. All were glad to note the improvement in the sufferer's condition, even though they knew that It wtls but for a while. When the sun had warmed tha air somewhat, Cen. Grant, leaning on Harrison's arm, walked out on the eastern veranda and sat upon an easy chair. For many minutes he gazed out upon the bright, invigorating scene, and a faint, almost imperceptible tinge warmed his ashen cheeks. The family grouped around him and via l with each other in little attentions. The general surprised them by getting up suddenly and walking to the end of the veranda. Harrison was at his side in a moment, but the general would have no aid but that of bis oane. lie paced up and down the veranda, drinking in the air for an hour. With thj family sitting around, the hours passed quickly away. Every breath oT moftutain air seemed to put new life into the InmUtL When the others went into lunch •t noon, to again took nourishment, after Dr. DouglM pixsmlned his throat Harrison seemed to be walking on air. He was the happiest darkey in New York state. He aaid to his fellow servants: "The general is going to get better after all," At 1 o'clock Gen. Grant went suddenly Mis tbe house, leaning heavily on Harrison's arm. Dr. Douglas advised him to a brief nap and he laid down for an boor. The manner of his leaving and the length of his stay in the bouse gave rise to • report that he bad suffered a relapse and It created much excitement, many people flocking to the mountain by the 8:40 train. They found Gen. Grant seated on the C plana, though, aud looking better than at any time slnoe he left New York. While . J*"**5 locomotive's puffing could be heard , ;wjWL down the monntaiu, the general gave bis family and p.\ Douglas a genuine surprise. Beckoning to Harrison to follow he walked down the veranda stairs lean. hfg on his cane and started up the steep, grassy slope toward the hotel. Tbe distance was only about 300 feet, but the ascent was very sseep, so steep that he had to take HarrimVsMtt before bs reached the top. He pat down panting, as he held his Juwclkerchief to Ids mouth. A young man oft'e.el him a chair to rest his tpet on, but ui q low voice be said: "No, thank you." After rer maining for d few minutes gazing upon the keau&iiul green vadcy that stretches away for miles to the north, tie arose and leaning on Harrison's ana returned to the veranda. When asked about Lien. Grant's condition Dr. Douglas said: "*'ue disease is following its characteristic course, wh oh Is a owse of steadily increasing exhaustion. We do ■ot look for a cure from this  Nothing can be a curative, but we do hope to prolong hi* life and that is tbe most  can be expected. Under the exhilarating effect ot this atmosphere and of chH cool lay he ha*, for instance, walked ovor ther. From this source it is learned that her majesby displayod a knowledge and grasp of the situation and a strength of determination such as she has rarely shown in recent years. She brushed aside Lord  objections to taking office because of the Liberal majority in the house by saying that she would see to it that the Liberals should give his administration a reasonable degree of support. She said that she had already bean in negotiation with the retiring premier, and the latter had agreed to refrain from obstructive tactics on condition that pending legislation should be completed as begun. The principal subjacts of legislation to be affected by such a bargain are Che measures now on their passage for the completion of the franchise extension scheme. In roenrd to these measures—the edistributicn of seats and the new registry —there is already a b.nding agreement between the leaders of the two parties, and, therefore, Lard Salisbury bad no hesitation in pledg.hg himself, as the queen desired, that they should be carried through to their final passage on the lines on v\ Inch they were B.arted. All iresli legislation was to be initiated by the new government in accordance with its own party principles without deferring to the late administration, and the queen promised to use her influence and prerogative to prevent the opposition from causing embarrassment. In regard to foreign relations the queen was very positive in her demand that the agreement in process of negotiation between Lord Granville and M. da Giers, regarding the Afghan frontier question, should be completed in order that peace may be preserved between England and Russia. Her majesty also insisted upon the advisability of seeking closer illianc es with certain of the continental powers, especially Germany, and strictly enjoined Lord Salisbury to put an end to tbe political isolation into which England has been drifting. Lord Salisbury, it i» understood, acquiesced in these views, and promised to make overtures toward securing a closer friendship with Germany by favoring the latter's colonial enterprises in Africa and Oceanica. The people Mr. Riddle represented waro to provide the money for purchasing oil and the Penn bank was to bo a dejiository. He bought upwards of a million barrels for the combination, apd accepted drafts from Oil City and Bradford brokers by order of Mr. Riddle. He testified that the firm opened a branch in New York and made loans for the syndicate to the Standard Oil company and other parties to tha extent of three or four million dollars. When margins were necessary he made drafts on Watson & Hill and the Penn bank by instruction of Mr. Riddle. Considerable amusement was caused by the coolness with which millions of barrels were spoken of. Witness said he was carrying about 6,000,000 barrels for the Riddle syndicate. In New York he dealt with the Soar board bank, Russell Sage, S. V. White and others. Mr. Watson stated further that he often called at the Penn bank to get orders from President Riddle. He met him in the directors' room, and frequently several of them were present. He never talked to them about the syndicate, but supposed they knew it His account, he said, was overdrawn $137,003.

Big boxes with open spaces between the boards, like monster peach crates, were all around filled with sheets of dark metal in all kinds of shapes. The big lieutenant let in a little more light, pointed to one big box, then palled an imaginary look over bis ear, and Bald: "Curl." The visitors looked, and, alter a struggle, succeeded in believing that an immense hollow thing that might have sheltered homeless tramps, really was one of the curls meant to grace the goddess's cheek. Then they were anxious to see the cheek that could carry such a curl. They saw it covering the bottom of the blggast compartment of the ship's hold, with the eyes, mouth, nose, and hair distributed in boxes around tt The features were as quiet and peaceful as they seem in the well-known pictures, aad the thought that she was packed in 220 different boxes did not seem to worry the goddess in tho least. Her entire weight is oply 300 tons, quite insignificant for a lady of her size, and the captain told the visitors that she had not given the least trouble on the passage, in spite of rough weathar. Not a box had shifted, and the load was a very light one for the Isere, which carries 800 tons of merchandise. New York, June 18.—The trotter Majolica has been matched against J. I.

The choice caused some surprise in Wall street According to seniority, the position was due te Mr. C. C.

The election was unanimous, and the directors congratulated Mr. Depew. In accepting this position, Mr. Depew acted against the advice of many friends, who argue that he has injured his political prospects bv it. They hold that, though Mr. Depew declined the nomination for United States senator two years ago, he would .accept the nomination for governor of the the state, which he stood a fair chance of getting.

Springfield, Ills., June 18.—The following information has boen compiled from tbe proof sheets of the corn report soon to be issued by the department of agriculture. Illinois' Corn Prospeots. In the afternoon, just as a little boat came up with three enthusiastic Frenchmen who had rowed all the way from the Battery, the Isere hauled up her anchor, sent a thin rib bon of black smoke out of her funnel, and started up the bay for an anchorage nearer the city. All the small boots and yachts followed as best they oould, like kingbirds after a crow, each making all the noise possible, and forming a very respectable and triumphant escort. The American man-ofwar Omaha was lying off Coney Island point, and the Isere cast anchor beside her. - More saluting was done, more little boats poured down from the city, and everything alive in the viomity did what it oould to make the statue feel welcome. The captain of the Isere, with his sword and his cocked hat and a cross of the Legion of Honor dangling qu his breast, went aboard the Omaha to return the visit of his offioers, and came back as the sun was setting. A few stray visitors, who were received as well as though they were aldermen, took a look at the goddess, and that ended the day. When she bad gone half of the sailors were marched to bed to take the five hours' sleep, which is all they get. The captain ate his dinner and went to sleep also, and the piecss of the big goddess settled themselves comfortable for their second night in their new country. The area of corn is much larger than last season, especially in the wheat sections of the state. Insects have damaged the growing corn quite seriously in many portions of the state, and the cold, dry season has been unfavorable for the planting and the growth of corn. Since June 1 corn has made a very satisfactory growth, and has generally received good cultivation. There is much complaint that seed corn bat failed to germinate. A majority of the farmers have been competed to plant corn a second and not unfrequently a third time. The stand of corn is very uneven and there will probably be an unusual amount of damaged and unsaillable corn next fall. That Report on the Dolphin. Iron Mills Starting Up Again. Washington, June 18.—The report of the aaval board wh.cii examined the Dolphin is in the hands of the secretary of the navy. As he has only partially read it be declines to make any statement regarding its contents until after bis return from New York. Concerning the rumor that the board had recommended the rejection of the vessel the secretary said: Pittsburg, June 18.—Quite a number of the mill* have practically resumed work. Gruff, Bennett & Co. began work at their Fort Pitt mill, the Mill vale works were fired vp, and Wilson Walker & Co.'a finishing department was in operation. The Soho mlll| of Moorhead, (McClean & Co.) will likely resume work in one department. At many of the mills repairs are not yet completed. Consequently it may be a week before they are all running. Fear is already expressed that the arbitration committee of seven selected to adjust the sheet mill clause may not agree. Ihis will cause a renewal of the strike. Beeoher on Cleveland. New York, June 18.—In an interview nt Peekskill,Rev. Henry Ward Beechersaid: "I have noticed that President Cleveland ii receiving the support of many newspapers which were bitterly opposed to him, and that things are working for his renomination and re-election. That is just what we want. We hope through this to unite and combine the elements of reform. The Republican party has claimed to represent all that was good; now we get the good men of both parties.. The Republican party made the mistake of listening to and obeying its worst elements, and was defeated. Cleveland was the choice of the best element of the Democratic party. Had Aethur been renominated he would have represented the best element of the Republican party. 'Cleveland is winning the approval of the beat men in both parties, and it is only the inferior elements of the Democratic party that I have heard complain. Toe 'bloody shirt' amounts to nothing. After waving it you find you have only a rag left in your hand, I consider it a mistake on the part of the Republicans. But I an\ no politician." "That is incorrect, for the board are not required to make an recommendation. Their duty is to report whether tee vessel was constructed according to the terms of the contract and whether she is stracturally strong and seaworthy, and if not where tha tau.t is, whether in design or construction.
