the judge, the president will carry out
policy OF justice, but he is not man
to be too hotly pressed. While he has
great amiability, he has very little

strong epithets; he IL a man OF culture

hostess OF the white house.
Mampt0n's Conference Action Will
ANOt be Taken Until Mature Consider
alton.
Governor Hampton, accompanied by
Senator Gordon, OF Georgia, and Attor.
ney Ger eral Conner, Of South Caro-
lima, had an interview with the presi-
dent this afternoon. The converse
ton was OF a free and general character.
II related, primarily, to the question
rs to the probable condition Of the
State, In case the troops should lie
withdrawn. The points urged by
Governor Hampton and his friends
were as follows;
Fiist-They claim that there Is an
Imperative necessity for speedy action,
as the planting interests OF South Car.
olina are In absolute danger OF de-
struction by reason of the present I'M
settled state Of affairs, the labor system
being now In process Of disintegra-
ton; and although the season for
planting Is already at hand, the
planters are unable, ms heretofore, to
obtain advances OF money from mer-
chants and factors, and this disastrous
condition OF affairs, they said, would
continue until some stable system
OF government shall have been
established. In short, business IL par
alyzed and credit almost entirely de-
strOyed throughout the State, In conse-
quence OF It's present unsettled
condition. Another reason for speedy
action urged by the gentlemen was
that carpstNbaggers, and others who
were interested In the perpetuatioD
OF the Chamberlain rule, constantly
melted riots and disafieotion, and the
most assiduous care and forbeai ance
had to be exercised to prevent open
breaches of the public peace, the ever
present danger being that they might
become general. These instances
and illustrations Of the precarlous
condition Of affairs were presented to
the president with some particulars
and detail. The remainder of the con-
versation was mainly directed to the
questions as to what would be the
probable condition of affairs, should
the troops be withdrawn. from the
State house, and what line Of policy
Governor Hampton Intended to pur-
sue In that event. On these points
the president was assured that there
would be no effort to seize the capitol
by mob violence, and that only legal
process would be resorted to by Gov
ernor Hampton to establish the SUI
premacy OF his government.
No formal pledges were asked or
given during the interview, but Gov
ernor Hampton emphatically repeated
the statements he has heretofore
made, that possesses both the
purpose and the power to protect all
persons and classes alike, In their legal
and constitutional rights. The presi-
dent in reply, stated substantially, that
1t was his purpose to carry out In good
faith, the promises Of his inaugural
address, as he was deeply anxious to
bring peace and quiet to the distracted
portions Of the country, and that he
was satisfied that this result would be
obtained In very short time.
During the entire conversation,
which lasted several hours, there was
no discussion OF hamberlains' rights
or title to the governorsbip, and moth
ing was said which contemplated his
continuance In office, the conversation
being almost altogether based upon
the assumption Of a withdrawal OF the
Federal troops and the REIMBURSEMENT
of the legal question at issue to the
State courts. Governor Hampton and
his friends say they were greatly
pleased and encouraged by the inter-
view, and this evening feel confident
that the State Of South Carolina will
soon be relieved Of Its present political
and industrial difficulties. Governor
Hampton is dining with Evarts. Both
4 governors having now been heard, nc
action will be taken until after the
most mature consideration. This Is au.
thoritatively stated In contradiction Of
the reports that action had been taken
to-day.
