the following paragraph In answer to the denia
Of Mr. gchurz.
Has Carl schurz Been Ordered OGs-He
should Withdraw ut Amy Rate.

The news was received Yesterday from
various quarters that the attempt OF MIR. Schurz
To pun up Hayes "a arefurmer. and to make
people believe that, In spite o. his party. Hayes
would devote himself u Civil Service reform
IN short the attempt to separate HAYES from
the present Admin istratiOn, and from the lead
ers OF the Republican machine-had excited
great disgust among those leaders. and that Mr..
Chandler, us Chairman OF tue Republican Ma
uonal Executive Committee. had given orders
70 strike Mr.. Schurz from the list Of orators Sc
lected for Indiana and Ohio.
Mr.. Chandler denied this here YESTERDAY but
the iact remains that the Administration organ

lished Yesterday furious article against Schuiz.
IN which. among other things he was accused OF
htNlng declared In private lie ters tnat Ohio aud
Indiana are lost for the Republicans. Thus, not
only VII tt Nr. Schurz speIks purl civ, but also
what he wrlles privately Ia subjected to tho
eensorship OF the Republican n 'chine man
ayers. VINO apoear to regard Mr.. Schurz as
their political serf and chattel
Up to this we had supposed that Mr.. Schurz
was stumping entirely on his own account: aud
" this had been the case. Mr.. Chandler would
We had nothing to saw about MA speeches: and
THIS Is more probable since Chandler prctends
To know nothing ABOUT the affair; but. at any
rate, the utterances OF all other Republican
stump speakers snow that Schurz Il engaged In
an irreDresstble conflict with tho Republican
party. and the report OF hts Withdrawal from the
campaign was for that reason not 50 absurd as
some Republican Journals would have n. The
occurrence should at least have the effect Of
opening Mr.. SchuIzs ewes.
Mr.. Chandler and his associates would not run
any great risk in turning Mr.. Schurz out. The
Repuocan machine managers must have dis
covered that Schurz cannot be OF anv use TO
them. He IL an orator OF too mucn renown not
t. pe sure always OF more or less numerous
audience: but ne will never succeed tn inspiring
hi, hearers with the confidence which he affects
To place In Mr. HAYES. Even II there Is no truth
in the report OF Chandlers interference against
scnurz, It Is certain that Mt. Schurz is dlsl-
vowed by the leaders OF the Republican
machine In regard to everything that might
be expected from a HAYES administrator (;
among Republican eiectioneerins speakers.
since the latter are only occupied with
riaisine the present Administration and the an
tecedents OF the Republican party. aud In prom
ising the safety Of The Union from the continu-
ance Of Republican rule. More than ever, under
SUCH circumstances everv thinking citizen must
see that the position OF Mr. Schurz Is sltogcther
untenaOie, and that since before tho election
they do not hesitate to disavow him. he viii be-
more decislvely disavowed after tue election by
the Republican machine. the instrument OF
which MI Morton In every one OF his speeches
represents Hayes to tie.
For SIR. schurz the situation becomes oon-
tinualiy more critical 10 the beginning II was
possible to regard his credultty about HAYES "a
an honest self-deception bus when we see how
all The regular Republican emlssaries make front
against him. we cannot help thinking that Mr..
Schuiz ought to consider again and again
whether Mr. Hayes Is the man To mold lrm pO-
sition against the temper Of the Republican
marty. under such crcurstaDces, H. cou-
tinues TO regale people with his confidence non-
sens IL Will scarcely De possible TO respect MS
opinion AS sincere nd genuine. Instead OF this
we shall then be forced to a conclusion which
we nave hitherto resisted, that Mr.. Schurz ~

science-in snort we shall DE obliged to aoan-
don all faith Ia the uprightness of his asser-

Whether Mr.. Chandler mas prescribed him or
not, the whole tendency OF the Republican party
