Tho Union caucus of last night was i'm
portant. The johnson and Anti-Johnson
forces had been rallied and exhorted for
weeks. Delano was brought from Wash

Z fore mortal combat. This was broken by q
speech from Dom Piatt. in his usual style.
In which he denounced johnson as Il traitor
to his party and country. Then the war
waged hot and heavy. Sam Galloway con-
torted and grimaced like gorilla In bad
health, very much gingered. West was
eloquent. while Governor Cox pitched into
the member from Mac-a-cheek with vim
that awakened echoes. Dom returned TO
the charge. and Delano opened with heavy
artillery but It was of no avail. When
the vote came to be taken the Radicals car
ried the day. johnson can consider him
self indorsed--over the left.
