"To the medical mind the bulletins Issued by the physicians in charge of this oaae are extremely vague and unsatisfactory, but they show, nevertheless, that a fatal termin»- tiou is to be feared at a moment's notice. The organic trouble, as far a* can be learned, Is what we style valvular insufficiency, the failure of the valve* of the heart to properly perform their function of pumping the blood out into the arteries. "Owing to this failure the blood regurgitates or flows back upon the heart, which redoubles its exertions to sustain the circular tlon.

The senate intends to consider pension bills, the North Dakota and other territorial statehood bills, and the fisheries treaty. The Kepublioans believe that they will succeed in securing open sessions for the debate on the fisheries treaty, but it is likely that the resolution which will lie adopted making the provision will despoil the party of its victory by a clause that upon objection of two senators at any time when secret matters are to be spoken of the doors may be clojed.

The bishop, Mr. O'Brien said, left Limerick Saturday, after supplying copies of his manifesto to every Orange newspaper, but he did not send a copy to the mayor, to whom the manifesto was nominally addressed, and who discovered it in the journals. Mr. O'Brien deolared that there never was anything falser than Bishop Oaryer'e assertion that the Nationalists wore agitating agtfinst the popa The audienoe, which was greatly excited, uttered groans for Bishop O'Dwyer. Twenty thousand persons attended the meeting. The better class of citiaens and most of the looal slergymen were absent. A dozen other Paruellites spoke at various plaoes.

Wabhikqton, May 88.—Secretary FalrohiM, in an interview about the removals which have been made in the New York city appraiser's department on account of alleged frauds in the classification of sugar, as brought out by Benator Hale's select committee, said that this matter had been under investigation for nearly two yean; that the invmtlgation was originally begun by the late Secretary Manning, who some time in the fall of 1880 called it to his attention, and that sinoe Mr. Manning's retirement from the department the whole subject had been personally known to him In all of its details; that nothing had been done about it by Judge Mayna'rd, except by the direction and with the previous knowledge and approval of Secretary Falrchlld; that Judge Maynard knew nothing of the matter until some time *fter|he became assistant secretary, in April, 1887; that all of the removals which had been made because of the alleged sugar frauds were made by Mr. Fairchild's express direction, and solely with a view to the purification and Improvement of the public service and with no regard whatever to any personal or political consideration; that the same was true of the non-removals, and the restoratieu after removal mentioned in the investigation. Secretary Fairchild says that be was himself personally responsible for the removals, and that it is grossly unjust to censure Judge Maynard.
