The resident and General GrnGis
Lone BRArcH. N. j.. August 81 The
attention Of General Grant has been called
10 yaiious publications, especially In west
ern newspapers, describing frequent visits
on bis part 10 Vice-President Arthur and
consultations with The President and
other public men In reference to political
contingencies In Washington. General
Grent requests the announcement that
there was 20 truth In any OF tue
statements. He bad been present at
no consultation. and knew OF none. He
had only seen General Arthur once since
the attempt on the Presidents life-at a
brief morning cillabOut three weeks since
and no one was present but the Vice Presi-
dent. He had met no one, the General con-
timed, who showed a more profound and
sincere sorrow for the Presidents condi-
ton than the Wee President. General
Grant did not believe that there had been
any consultations Of the character described
between General Arthur and his political
friends. General Arthur could have no sane
friend WHO would intrude such subject on
MIN. snd he is the LAST man who would sub
NIT to such an intrusion.
