Hayes Ia not disposed to remove them There
is no doubt. however. that their designations
would be thankfully received. and that II they
would resign and we're afterwards pardoned
Hayes would makean effort tn nrovide for them
In some manner and outsidesthe State.
It may be stated TINT the understanding nj

There can be no doubt that the veto Of tbe bill
hy Hayes would GO far toward breaking up the
organization Of both parties In Congress- and
forming new linea. which would last at least

There IL much excitement here to- night on this
