Logan Challenged.
WASHINGTON, April 27th.-Con-
siderable excitement prevails here
tonight from the fact that Con-
gressman Lowe of Alabama has
sent challenge to Senator Logan.
In an interview some time ago
Lowe asserted that at the begin
u. ng of the war Logan sympa-
n Jhized with the Southern cause and
|. helped to raise troops for the Con-
federate service. Logan, in a pub
lished card, denied the story and
characterized 1t as malicious
and vlndictive lie. Lowe sent
several letters to Logan request
ing him to retract the statement
that he was a liar. Logan paid no
attention to these letters. To-day
Lowe sent a friend Colonel Pei
ham, OF Alabama,) to Logan's
I friend, bearing note, requesting
Logan to deny, over his signature,
the statement that Lowe was liar
or to name a place outside of the
District where letter would reach
him. Logan refused to receive the
letter or to hold any communica-
ton with Lowe. 1t is said that
Lowe will post Logan tomorrow as
liar and a coward. Logan said
tonight that If Lowe wanted to
test his courage he could do it with
out making so much parade
about 1t.
The Army Bill veto.
WAsHINaToN, April 27.-It is
authoritatively stated that the
President will veto the Army
Appropriation bill which was pass
ed by the Senate to-day. The veto
message is already partially pre-
pared, and will be sent in early
next week. The basis of the veto
Is said to be the attempt of Con-
gress to limit the powers of the Ex-
ecutive.
Busier's Giu 60 she NEGROES.
NEW YORK, April pa Times
special from Washington says:
General Conway, of New Jersey,
who has been developing a plan for
rendering the colored refugees from
the South self-supporting, and who
has secured an offer of material
help from wealthy philanthropists
in various parts of the country,
notably some mem bers of the Soci-
ETY. of Friends, has received
from General Butler an offer
of gift of 10000 acres of good
farming land in Wisconsin, to be
divided into small farms and trans
ferred to these freedmen. General
Butler claims 1t Is all nonsense to
say that the colored man cannot
prosper in a cold country; that no
people, black or white, can prosper
so well in all respects In warm as
in a cold climate, and that the
highest degree of civilization is
reached by people living not under
a tropical sun, but where there is
abundance of ice and snow and
hills and mountains. He therefore
thinks that the colored people, il
made owners of land and homes
will be far better off in the West
and Northwest than in the South
and makes his offer accordingly
leaving to the philanthropists
of the North the opportunity Of
proving their sincerity by coming
forward and providing these people
with the means of utilizing tn,
offer which he has made.
