11:30 A. M.-The Committee on Credentials
finally completed its work at 2:30 this morning
and at this hour, 945, are engaged in preparing
the report Majority and minority reports will
be presented and the fight will probably be long
and bitter as the result may depend. By the ma
jorty report Grant loses and Blaine gains twenty
votes over the sentiment of the Convention as it
is sitting.
The Grant men count therefore on making
big fight to defeat the majority report OF the Com
mittee on Credentials. In the vote on 1T they
have the votes of their twenty sitting members.
Ii beaten on this, and the majority report is
adopted their twenty seats will be occupied by
men who will vote with the Blaine side, making
difference of forty votes to the Grant men; hence
the importance of the first fight
The combination against Grant tooS entire pos
session OF the whole machinery, and in the Com
mittee on Credentials, bounced every Grant man
whose tenure could be at all questioned. There
is great bitterness on the action of the Credentials
Committee, and it is said the Grant men are di.
vided as to the course to pursue. Cameron's fol-
lowers want to quietly acquiese and make show
ing of being able to win even with close odds
in the fight. while Logan and Conkling insist on
springing the fight before they are stripped OF
part of their strength.
The worst fight occurred among the Louisiana
men in the Committee on Credentials Judge
Beatty referred to Dumont as "that man." point
ing his finger at him. Dumont jumped to his feet,
denounced Beatty bitterly and told him he was
north OF the Ohio River and had to answer to him
at once. Beatty also denounced Luedling severe
ly and it was with the greatest difficulty the
Committee could prevent knock down. The
delegation, headed by Yarmouth, was given Gre
dentials almost unanimously by the Committee.
