just as he was on tho point of taking
the train fcr Baltimore. The follow.
in;: te.esrain.s received at diflprpiif
hours of the day, contain all the
news so far as received of the dastard
ly outrage. At the timo of going to
press the Pi csident's condition is very
critical:
First DIspatcIiri.
New York, July 2d. President
Garfield was sliot twice tliis nioriiiii
at the. Baltimore it Oliio railroatl depot
in Washington. No further particu
lars. Washington, July 2. Gen. Gar
field is living.
A later dNpatch : Dr. Bliss says th
Piesidi-nt's wound i- not necessaiilv u
mortal one.
The Inst telegram is -probably the
most auihcutic
Washington, D. C, July 2, 10 a. m.
Dr. Bliss, Surgeon General BarneN
and Dr. Purvis me now in attendance
on Pie.sident Gut field, who is lyiii" in
a private room of officers quarti rs of
the Btltimorennd Potomac Dipot.
Tlie man arrested for the attempted
iFSassination of the president is a
hlcndcr man, five feet KeVen inches in
o" JHj refused - to
sivo his name, but persoiiR who pro
fess to know Iiini say tliat his name is
Dooley. His arrest took place imme
diately after tho shootins by officers
who were in the depot at the time
The shooting occurred iu the ladies
room of the depot in the presence of
fifty or sixty ladies, immediately after
thp entance of die President. Secre
tary, Blaine and the President were
walking into the depot, arm in arm
when the shooting occurred, on their
way to the Limited Express Train,
which was about ready to leave.
Two'shots were fired both shots tak
ing effect the first in the President's
rigjit arm and the other in the side,
just alove the right hip and near the
kidney. Physicians are prilling for
tho balls but so far unsuccessfully.
It is rumored now that the nsasin
is lix Consul Uoolev, whose removal
as consul 0f Mnr!-if.S- Franco, is sup
posed to be, the cau-e of his rash net.
The prisont:r was first taken to
'prriict Vi?9.dquarors and aftprwnrds re
manded to the District j lil, where he
is now confined.
11: 30 A. M. The Pretfdpnt is now
being conveyed to the Executive Man

and troops.
President Garfipld'.s condition. The
doctors disagree as to his condition at
present.
Second n'alcli or Dispatche.
"WaSHISGTON, JuTy' 2d. At 9:30
o'clock this morning, whpn President
Garfield was at the Baltimore and Po.
tnmnc dppot with his party waiting to
take the train, he was shot twice 1 a
man within two feet of htm. Thp
President's fiiends rushed to him as he
fell and Rbiine called for Rnckwrll.
Station ngpnt C-irnev nn-psted the as
sassin, who sniil, "I did ir. T am a

it."
Chicago. July 2d. Clin. Guittpnu,
the man who attemptpd to assassinate
the President, has lppn more or less
known in Chicnco for the past ten
pars. He is a foreigner by birth, and
bppn a very persistent applic.nt for a
consular position. He lias hauned
thfl Executive mansion several weeks
and his disappointment in not getting
what he wanted has caused a tempo
rary aberration of mind. Guittrau was
a disreputable lawyer here, and was
generally considered half insane. He
went to New York seven or eight
years ao, and upon his return in 1876
professed to have been converted, and
delivered several lectures under the
auspices of the Y. SI. C. A. He next
appeared at tlio head of a scheme to
buy the Chicago Inttr-Ocean, and run
it on the plan of the New York Her
ald, but as ho had neither capital nor
backing the matter was boon dropped
by him. He left for Washington bev
eial mouths ago.

rence: I was coming down Pt
Vnnsyl-
vaiiia avenue when I saw a carriage
coming up the avenue. The horses
were running so fast that I thought
they were running away. As the car
riage arrived in front of me, a man
iut his head out of the window anil
said: "Faster, faster, faster, it."
After hearing this remark, I thought
there was something -wrong, and ran
after the carriace. Whpn it reached
the.depot a man jumped out and en
tered the ladies' room. He had not
been there more than three minutes
when the Piesident arrived, stepped
out of his carri-ige and entered the
ladies' room. The President, cfter
pissing through the door, was just
turning the corner of a seat when the
a-t-ussin, who was standing on the left
of the door, fired. The ball struck the
President iu the back unit ho fell for
ward. I tan into the depot, and just
(hen the man filed again, while the
President was falling. The moment
tho Prisident fell a policeman, who
hud been standing at tho depot tlot.r
keeping the way char foi tho Presi
dent anil his party grabbed the assassin
by tin- neck, and as ho pulled him out
of the depot another policeman catno
to his assistance. Juat after firing the
shot the assassin exelai.uied: "I have
killed Garfield; Arthur is President; 1
,aui a stalwart."
PLACE WnERE TDK SHOOTING OCCURRED.
The -dei-oLat. wbih the uJ.
took place is given by some of the dis
patches as the Baltimore and Ohio,
and by others us the Baltimore and
Potomac. The former is located a
short distanco north of the Capitol
building, and the latter on Sixth street,
standing between Sixth and Seventh
and only part of a block south of
Pennsylvania avenue, midway between
tho capitol and the White House. The
fact that he was about to leave for
Long Branch by the Limited Express
fixes the place as the Baltimore depot,
as that train is run between Washing
ton and Baltimore by the. Baltiinote
mid Potomac The Limited Express
is n train made up exclusively of Pull
man pallor coaches, run at extieme
raw of speed, nutl makes but two c.r
hiet- stops between Washington and
New York. The Baltimore and Po
tomac depot where the attempted as
sassination took place is in the central
part of the Iiumiipm portion of thcity.
How the news uUevted Yice-Presi-ilent
Arthur:
Nlw York, July 2d. Yice-Presi-tlent
Arthur and Oonkling arrived
ftom Albany by boat this mornim.
The boat was late, not arriving until
about 10 o'clock. As soon as she
touched the wharf a telegram was
handed Arthur. Upon reading it he
utopped back . in his chair greatly
shocked Lvis presumed that the tel
gr&m announced 'the, shooting ofPresk

One of the recently introduced sul
stituies for gold, which has become
vety popular in some of the jeweliy
and other manufactories of line wairs
in Fruni-e, is eonipo.-ed as follow.-.: One
hundred parts by weight, of copn--r of
the purest quality, fourteen of zinc or
tin, six of magnesia, three and six
tenths of sal ammoniac, limestone and
cieum of tarter. The cupper is lir.-t
melted, then the magnesia, sal ammon
iac, limestone and cream of tarter in
powder are addetl separately and grad
ually. The whole mass is kept stirred
for half an hour, the zinc or tin being
dropped in piece by piece, the stirring
being kept up till they melt. Finally,
the crucible is covered and the mass
kept in fusion for thirty-five minutes,
and the scum being removed, the met
al is poured into moulds and is soon
ready for use. The alloy thus made is
represented as being fine-grained, mal
