WASHINGTON, April 27-Logan returned
to-day and was the special object Of inter-
est at the capital. He said Grant talked
very freely with him IN general subjects,
but eschewed politics. "But, said Logan,
"Grant will not withdraw, or be withdrawn
under any circumstances" One gentleman
here remarked that it was generally under
stood that Grant would not be kept in the
field, unless he could be nominated on the
first ballot. Logan replied 'Grant is in
| the hands Of his friends, who will not with
| draw him, no matter how many ballots are
| taken" That is the whole case. This re-
mark is taken by the Blaine people here to
mean that the campaign is to be an agrees
sive one.
sketch of Judge Field Trouble
with the Chinese.
New YORK, April 27.-The Sun contains
a very interesting biographical sketch of
Judge Field. 1t says that Judge Field is
u splendid specimen Of American manhood,
and there is no question but that he would
make a grand President of the Andrew
Jackson school, were he elected to the
Office, and he would be elected were he
nominated, and he would take the office
were he lawfully chosen. 1t has been sur
missed that he is Tilden's choice, and there
fore is not to be thought of. Tilden trying
to control Field in the White House would
cut q far more ridiculous figure than poor
old Mrs. Darlington trying to sweep back
the Atlantic Ocean with her broom.
Judge Dinkel, Of the Fourth District
Court of this city, having refused to ac-
cept two Chinese bondsmen in a suit insti-
tuted by a white man, for non-delivery of
clothes, Chief Justice DAILY, Of the Court of
Common Pleas, yesterday issued an order
compelling Dinkel to show cause why Lee
Tung and VIM. Lee should not be accepted
as bondsmen.
Certain buildings on Mott street, which
are the stronghold of the Chinese here,
have recently been sold, and the new pro-
prietors declare their intention to GUST the
Chinese tomorrow. On Thursday a dozen
Cinnamon will appear in the Court of Com
mon Pleas to apply for preliminary papers
of citizenship. They are principally Cali
fornians, who made an effort in the same
direction in San Francisco, but failed.
They spent considerable money in appeal
ing to a higher Court, but did not care to
pay the cost Of an appeal to the United
States Supreme Court at Washington.
They are urging their companions to follow
their example.
A Fearful Cyc1One-Eishteen Per.
sons Killed and Forty Wounded.
MACON, Miss, April 26.-Last night, at
Q.Q0 n,afoo1 nna ~ fha xonoS foarf,,I ~
clones struck the northern part of this
place, resulting in sad loss Of life and
wholesale destruction Of property. The
evening began to be unusually sultry at
the hour stated, and two terrible currents
of wind, one from the northeast and the
other from the southwest, beating clouds,
charged with electricity, were hurled to-
gether right at the fated locality. 1t was a
wal Of storms. Besides the incessant light
ming, balls Of fire were seen whirling
across the clouds, varying in size from q
chestnut to that Of a mans head. Right
in the center of that part Of the town
around the railroad station the storms met,
and the work of destruction commenced,
and in q brief time the place was ruined.
Thu loss Of life was fearful, and in the
beating rain and pitiless winds the citi-
zens rushed to the scene to aid the suffer-
ers, and all through the night squads Of
men combined and went to work to re-
move the debris and gather up the wounded
and dying and dead that were scattered
everywhere. The awful scene beggars all
attempts at description. To-day the citi-
zens closed their places Of business INT
devoted themselves to caring for the lead
and wounded. Eighteen persons were
killed outright, and forty more or less
wounded-some, perhaps, fatally. After
the storm the ruins caught fire, but it
was checked before it spread to any extent.
About 10 o'clock a perfect water-spout WIS.,
tied the scene, to render it more horrible.
Men and women were found to-day decap-
itated, others with limbs torn from their
bodies and otherwise mutilated. Some
were o quarter of q mile from their homes.
Stock was all killed. A bolt of dry goods,
from one Of the stores, was found eight
miles from the town in a tree-top.
