find it stated in the papers: "a Pitts
burgh clothier telegraphed to President
Grant on election day offering him 8
new suit Of clothes. The answer he got
was from General Horace Porter, and
is given in the Pittsburgh Gazette as
follows: The President will have, and
very reluctantly, too, to decline your
generous offer OF one of your best suits,
to be woru at his inaugural next March
not but that he believes they are the
best clothes made, but were he to ac-
cept, Senators Sumner, Schurz, Trum-
bull and Others would be verv jealous,
and would, no doubt, demand suits for
themselves, and If refused would ask
for an investigation committee, thereby
costing the Government thousands OF
dollars, with the usual result, "-Cm-
