Tne slight febrile rise, which first became noticeable about 5 o'clock this afternoon, reached its maximum at the evening examination, when the Presidents pulse stood at 104 and his-temperature at lOO. 5. Boon after that time both the pulse and temperature began to fall, and at the present Lour the patient's fever has nearly disappeared, and he is resting quietly. So reasons are assigned Dy tne aiteuuing sur-peons or the Yeappearunee of febrile symptoms after an interval of more than thirty-six hours of normal temperature. The circumstance, however, causes no particular uneasiness, since the fever has almost subsided, and a slight fever in the evening has been a feature of the President's case every day except yesterday for two weeks.

The patient was moved back to his own room about 5 this afternoon. Washington, July 2K. The following cablegram was sent by. Secretary Blaine to--nijrht: "Lowell, Minister, London: This after-- noon and evening the President has shown some increase in pnlse and temperature, but riot sufficient to create uneasiness on the part of bis physicians.

Wabhisotos, July 28. There was a little flurry of excitement this evening because a aw-, rr 1 wv luabiuea ox iud uiuuk uuiieiiu. a. j. rise in the temperature was noted, and nothing was said about the discharge of pus.

Tbi Inter Ocean correspondent sought out Dr. Boynton as the most likely person to give an explanation of the true state of the oase ana supplement tne scanty Bulletin. Were you present at the eenlng was asked. "Yes," replied the Doctor, "I was there." "What was the cause of the increase In fever noticed in the bulletin "That is easily explained. You know tl tube through which the pus is drained is drawn into the wound until the end is below or ihrmt even with it Then soma anft refut ing Is placed over it all and the cotton is held in place by strips of plaster.

Now, the dressing was a little heavy to-day, while tbe accumulation of pus was very liberal. As a result the tube was filled and dammed up until about two ounces of pus were confined, and this caused the Irritation. Along in the afternoon was noticed that there was a little uneasiness of the patient, and he began to be feverish. When the plaster and the dressing was removed the confined pus was released and it came out in a stream. The President was relieved at once, and in a half hour afterward he was all right again.

The fever fell at once. "How is his appetite now "Well, you can't say he has any appetite such as causes the LONGING FOB FOOD in a well man. For a day cr two, since the removal of fragments of bone he has had something more nearly approaching an appetite than before. Up to that time he had taken food with great re- Eugnance, just as he took medicine, because knew he ought to have it. Now, however.

He receives it with no repugnance, and with something approaching to relish. vThen his mind seems to revert to something to eat To-day he said to me: 'Boynton, I wish we were back at Orange, where you and I were bora, to have a dinner of real old-fashioned cooking. I think I could eat something "Are you satisfied with his condition as a 'Decidedly. I think ha is certainly now oa the high road to health, and will recover, unless some unforeseen accident intervenes. "What If the real fact about his strength Can he raise his head" "So, I guess not.

I have never seen him try since he was shot. 1- HB IS VEST WEAK, rate he WW be able to sit up in ten days or two weeks." Have you any misgivings about diffused pus in the abdominal cavity, as evinced by the discharge of pus upon pressure on the aodomen?" "None at all. The wound has no connection with the abdominal cavity. The ball never entered It nor pierced the peritoneum." Then the ball did not touch the liver?" "Oh, no. Still it is not strange that it was thought so at first.

When a ball goes in oat ft Hirht riffht nver mn- liwr vtn wmtirf naturally think it went through it. The fact was though, that the bnliet struck the tenth rib, and was turned down and crushed the eleventh no and PASSED BOWK TO THE BIDS and downward, and is now undoubtedly imbedded pretty deeply in the muscles in the lilac remon." "Why were not the fragments of rib taken out sooner if, as it seems, their removal was such a source of relief to the President?" you see it easier to see such a thing after it is none than before.

There were, of course, occasional slight reactions, but the general tendency was in the direction of higher prices, and at the close, when quotations were at or near the highest points ached, the improvement from yesterday ranged from lo to 4 per cent, the latter and Charleston, Western Union, Missouri Pacific, Denver, and U10 Grande. Union Pacific and Uramrer and coal shar ere also prominent in the advance. Tbe strenprth ot speculation was due to a report that the railroad war had been brought to un end, causing the short interest to cover FEXoS COMMliKT. The Commrretal ItvUctm says, "At the Stock Exchange there was a continuance of the reorted reaction in stocks which began yesterday, and a reported advance in prices was established. The stocks which advanced most were those in wiiton the short interest was the largest.

It is generally understood that Uould and (uge manipulated the rise, and it was a surprise to the VnnderbUts. One) reason for this belief is that in tue afternoon trunk line rates were again reduced, and Commissioner 1'injt was rejwrted as denying the various rumors set afloat in the nlornlig to the effect that a settlement of the trunk line matters is near at hand and a meeting has been culled. Reports of this kind, when the stock market was 'running right' for Ynnderbilt have heretofore been unnoticed Tne change in the market has been too sudaea for outsiders to oome in as buyers, and most of the buying has been by those who had previously sold short. New York, July, US. The Evening J'atTt financial article says: "The Stock Lxchange markets are stronger and hi truer, and toe snare speculation shows plainly the intervention of leading speculators, who have ttius lor stood aside and permitted their stocks to be sold down according; to the caprice of the sellers.

Whether the present upward turn is a final one toward a bull market is very much questioned. There are certainly no indications on the surface -that the trunk line troubles are near settlement. On the contrary, Vanderbllt is quoted as saying that the war will lost until the close of navigation. mere may be a time when trunk line stocks wilL in stock speculation, be sepa rated from the general list, but at present 1 they are so interwoven with toe other market; thai that which touches them affects the whole list. Home one continues to buy them in large amounts in the face of the most discouraging news.

As Vanderbllt denies baying them, it may be that other influential people are taking them with a view to future controL There is nothing new respecting; the crops, nor is there any foreign news of consequence. The upward turn in prices is therefore tbe result of other causes. A great deal of stock has been shaken out of tbe hands ot weak holders, as the short Interest in the-market has become very large.

Th great topic for discussion yesterday afternoon which occupied tbe attention of the board was tbe question whether two or more city agents er firms representing the same oomoanv or companies should be accepted as members of the Board ot Underwriters, and thus allow one company or two companies to have double votes in the councils of tbe board. This matter has ben the subject of much private discussion among members of the ooard, out has not previously been tbe suDject 01 any formal action, tiince the comparatively recent custom of appointing two or more agents in one large citv has come in vogue in Chicago th settlement of the matter, (which is an important one), bv the board, has been looked forward to by non-board as well as board companies witn great interest as well as anxiety.

The oase which gave rlsa to the final dicusssioa settlement was as follows: Messrs. Thomas and W. A.

New Your, July 28. In th battle between tb railroads there have been recently some important and Interesting changes of positions of the contending forces. Tbe action ot the Central Vermont and Grand Trunk Bailroad la announcing. 1st Wednesday afternoon, the gfberal reduction in rates on west-bound freight from Boston to Chicago seriously threatens tne existence ot the trunk line pooL The new schedule or rate, which was announced at th Boston office of the Grand Trunk Wednesday, is a reduction ot more than 5U cents per ton from the regular tariff. These rale are a follows: Oa first mass, 35 cents per lui lbs instead of 75 cents; second class, US cents instead of OO cents; third class.

20 cents instead of 5t cents, and on fourth class special, 15 ceuts instead of 11U cents. The actual amount of this reduction is somewhat less than th figures now show, for tne reason that nuderexisiins amreements the Grand irunX was allowed a different essential rate on account of lie longer 'line. The announcement ot tats reduction created no little excitement in railroad circles, not only in boston, bnt also ln this city. It was not known here this afternoon wnutner th ttoston aad Albany Railroad had taken any atena toward retaliation. but it was admitted gen erally by railroad men that there waa no other mum for tnai oomnanv than to meet the re duced rates.

Little doubt was expressed that the Boston and Albany would announce a similar reduction ia west-ooond rates to-morrow. Tula will be followed by a general reduction of rate from tuia citv by all tbe trunk lines- Ia fact, soma of the lines were pre rearing to-day to make lower rates to-mor-rvw. It was Jast one week ago to-uay that to Kuun freio-nt aaenta of tb trunk lines met at Commissioner Flake ofbee, aad reaffirmed reso lutions which they had adopted at a meeting the previous week. In uieae resolutions it was strenuously insisted, that West-bound freight rates should be maintained, and the trunk line pool preserved. In tbe interval between tbe two meetings the company bad reported to tue pool commissioner their objections to contracts, and resolutions were reamtmrd only after tne commissioner had stated that the extent ot these contracts was not sufficiently targe to make a re duction la tne present tariff rates necessary, it is known, however, that since ibis last meeting goods have been shipped by one at least ot the fast freight lines on tbe basts of 30 cents a hundred pounds.

Broadway agents generally say that they had observed tariff rates during last week, and that rates were firm. The agent of the trunk line remarked "It is the popular impression on Broadway that Went-oound rate are firm. ii'ait until to-morrow. There are a cod many circuses in the country lust noV. You may see the greatest show on earth no around here tomorrow." While some of the trunk fast freight lines have tasen goods at a 50 cent rate, all rail, to Chicago fast ireiicht lines running in connection with the Central Vermoot and Grand Trunk roads are taking freight at even lower rates.

Goods ro by water to New London snd then by rail. The Grand Trunk is not a member of the trunk line pool, but was allowed by it a differential rate. It belongs, however, to the New England pool which was formed after tnat model. CHICAGO A2rt I ALTON XAENllTOS. Tbe earnings of the Chicago and Alton Bead during th third week in July were $173,447.32, agianst $185,234.92 ln 18 SO, a decrease of 787.8a Tbe decrease from Jan.

1 to July 21 is $237,719.54. One reason why the earnings of this road show a decrease while those of other roads increase is due to the -fact that most other Western lines have a number of new branches In operation this year, wnica aid la swelling the earnings, although the amount ot business done over tne same number of miles would show a decrease when compared with last year's business. Business, as a whole, is not aa heavy as It was a year ago, and were it not for the many new lines tbe railroad companies that now show increased would have to be contented with lea. PASSENQES RATES Tb travelers who are taking advantage ot the nnnsually low rases from the East were around town yesterday In larse numbers. They appeared to be glad to see Chicago and thankful for the opportunity of breathing a bit ot cool.

THE TICKET WAR. Kgw York, July 23. Samuel Carpenter, General Passenger Agent et the Pennsylvania Boad, was in high glee to-day over tbe report made to him by his scouts that broker were selling at his rates, $7 to Chicago. $7 to Cincinnati and $12.75 to 8L Louis. Be was satisfied from these reports he had forced brokers to the wall and knocked all fan out of them.

They are not so clipper to-day," be said, "and have qmt talking about running ratee down to nothing and of giving tickets away, with fans and opera-glasses to boot. You will find them a sad lot of men at tbe present time. They dare not cut beneath us, and are en their last legs. sir. Carpenter intimated the Pennsylvania Company was awaiting some move on the part of competing lines, and seemed sails tied at tne situation of affairs.

At tne office of tbe New York Central and Hudson Biver, Baltimore and Ohio, and New York, Lake Kria and estern Railroads rates were the same as those of the Pennsylvania Company, and there was no talk ot raising or lowering prices. It waa not known whether there wonld be any meeting ot the Presidents or General Pas-seuger Agent oa the subject of closing the war. When a reporter went forth to see the sad and weary brokers, he found them tbe liveliest and most humorous men be had met iu bis travels. They admitted they were somewhat tired, but that was owing to the rnsh of business. Instead ot fcellnft dispirited and wil.mg to they said witn much hilarity, in the slang ot tbe day, i'a a ebiiiy morning when we get laft."
