The whole number Of sgners was a. h;e more thnn
half the Republican strength in the House. There were
probably about dozen twenty absentecs. The whole
project II will be absolutely failed, and 1t is doubt
ful even could be obtained in Congress
70 paper declaring the first choice Of the signers for
the next President TO be Gen Grant So the Admins
taton seems have lost considerable strength In Con
ess the military Ring and their organ IN thi' city
attempted TO make list Of 100 mciobcr' in favor of
Grant.
