WASHINGTON, March 80, The cabl-
net is discussing yesterdays interview
with Governor Hampton.
The statement telegraphed from here
that Senator Gordon and Secretary
Schurz had drawn up paper which
Governor Hampton refused to sign, is
untrue in all details.
The Democrats are again allowing
themselves to become hopeful. The
hour and q half interview accorded
Senator Bruce and Representative
Lynch seems to have had for its OBJ,
ject their reconcilement to the present
loss to the Republicans OF Louisiana
and South Carolina. The president
argued that this course would create
new political combinations that would
certainly lead to the early recovery Of
Mississippi and South Carolina, and
eventually break the color line in all
the Southern States. Discussing the
personnel of the commission with
General Gibson, Tho president said:
general Harlan has been very Radi-
cal, but is now IN accord with me on
the Southern question:" The presi-
dent intimated to General Gibson that
If the commission allowtd itself to be
partial, it would be toward the Con-
servative5.
The entire Louisiana party left for
home this morning. They are not
confident, but quite hopeful.
Their il nothing feared now in the
South Carolina case but delay.
The delegation from the Charleston
chamber Of commerce have divided
themselves in committees to call on
the several secretaries. A popular dc.
monstration in honor of Governor
Hampton has been with great perse'
verance avoided by conservative lead
ers. 1t Is apprehended that under
these circumstances 1t would not be in
good taste. 1t Is said to-day that the
gentlemen who have called upon the
president on behalf of the Hampton
government, report that while he
favors that government, he rs yet sees
no reasons by which Chamberlain can
be satisfactorily disposed of,
