ADDRESS OF GERMAN REPUBLICANS.
New YORK, May 1.-The German Ameri-
can independent Republican organization
have adopted supplementary address to the
independent Republican convention at st.
Louis, reafirming opposition to the nomin-
alton of Gen. Grant. They do not believe
the Chicago Republican convention will
mind any address or resolutions protesting
against the nomination of Gen. Grant unless
the convention becomes convinced that Gen.
Grant, if nominated, will be defeated. They
do not believe that such a convic-
ton can be impaired to that convention
unless the Independent Republican conven-
ton will meet at Chicago previous to and at
the time of the regular Republican conven-
ton, fully prepared to nominate third can
didate in case the latter convention should
nominate Gen. Grant or any candidate
whose honesty is not beyond suspicion; and
they do believe that if such third candidate
is we'll known citizen of ability and hon
esty, standing on the platform adopted by
the Republican party in 1876, the greater
part, if not the whole, Republican vote may
be concentrated upon him, so that he will
be elected.
