Conference with seymour.

Kansas City, June 1.-THE Times Of this
morning has the following important special
from Its editor, Dr. NJ. Mumford, now in
New York:
Utica, N. Y, June l6.-I have had
several hours conference with ex-Gov-
ernor Horatio Seymour at his home near
this city. came here at the requeat of
leading Missouri and Kansas Democrats, del
egates to the Cincinnati convention, as well rs
for my own satisfaction, to ascertain his
views regarding his nomination by the DEM
ocratic convention next week, Readers OF
the Times will recollect published an &C
count of an interview ! had with Gov.
Seymour last December, in which after
stating the objections he raised why
he should not be nominated and urging the
selection of some other younger man, l
reached the conclusion that he WAS too good
patriot and Democrat to decline the Romi-
nstion should the Democratic party in con-
vention assembled see fit to declare him the
standard-bearer In the ensuing contest.
Agein, several months later, another oppor-
tunity was presented me in connection with
prominent gentleman from Kansas, in talk
ing with Governor Seymour on the question,
and my conviction was strengthened. While
nv friend thought that Governor Seymour
would accept if nominated-a fact too pat.
ent for controversy.
AT .EYNoUR's HOUSE.
When / reached Governor Seymour
residence about IL o'clock this morning,
found the HoI. Carter Il. Harrison, mayor OF
Chicago, himself delegate to thu
Cincinnati convention, who had quietly
come over to Deerfield on the same
mission as myself. Together we talked ovel
the whole situation with Mr.. Seymour, eacf
stating the case from his own standpoint
The governor traversed the same grounds
and urged the same objections TO accept
ing the nomination as he did to mo las,
December, except that he seemed to DO NOR
vehement and earnest in the protestatior
that he did not want the position, tina
HIS HEALTH
would not admit of his filling il and that b,
was not the strongest candidate that could b
nominated. But when the question was put t
him direct IL the convention in Its wisdom saw
ft to nominate him despite his wishes, could d
refuse to accept the leadership he siinpl!
DEPRECATED SUCH A CONTINGENCY,
but never once said outright he would re
fuse. After several hours ofconferencs, the
details of which cannot now repeat, we oil
started for the city, Governor Seymour
riding with me, while Mayor Harrison, who
is noted pedestrian, footed 1t across Mo
hawk Valley.

homeopathic Institute

Milwaukee, June liam important fea-
ture in the proceedings of The American
Institute of Homeopathy yesterday WAS the
reading of paper by Dr. Berridge, Of Lon
don, England, representing the Homeopathy
society of Great Britain. 1t opposed the
liberaity of the younger members of the
profession, insisted on a return to the study
of organon of Hspneman, and held that
such liberslity was curse, as it attempted
to substitute Empercism for the principles
of Hspnemar. There was some dissatisfac-
ton on the part of the liberal members Mt
the incorporation OF the Berridge proceed
ings of the institute.

openly object to the decisions of the con-
ference, but will not enforce them. The
Albanians on the Greek border are being
urged to resist. Large supplies of arms and
ammunition have been sent for distribution.
Financial difficulties are increasing. On
Monday workmen in the artillery depart
ment surrounded the grand master and in
sisted ON the payment of the arrears of their
wages. They were appeased by small IN
stallments, notwithstanding the scarcity of
money. Constant additions are being made
to the special chest at the war office, supposed
to be in anticipation of war with Greece. 1t
is believed that Russia is secretly inspiring
the sultan with the idea of resistance.
