FACTION FIGHTS.
The Rivalry Between Presidential As.
pirants--Arthur. Logan and
Blaine.

Blaine.
N Special to the Gazette.
Washington, December 16.-Th
Arthur faction of the Republican
party Is greatly dissatisfied with tn,
u result of the meeting of the com
mittee here. III was thought the piesi
dent would deve op great strength
and be more generally spoken of as ,
candidate for denomination, but his sup
Lperters instead were ignored by the
Blaine and Logan faction. Chicago was
chosen by the latter. The admins
tration will lose no time to gain the
advantage, and the government ma
chinery will be at once put TO work
mainly under the direction of Hatton
: and Gresham. A strong
amnesty has been developed
between Logan and Hatton. Tee lat
ter promised to advocate Chicago as
the place of meeting, but the secretary
worked in the interest of Cincinnati
Logan used violent language when the
trcachery leaked out through Sam
Lee, colored member of the conven-
! ton.
THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Judge Chambers, who called on the
president Saturday concerning the ap-
pointment of a judge for the Eastern |
district of Texas, said TO the GAZETTE |
correspondent that from what he
heard he did not think Arthur would
make the appointment until after the
holidays. Holman thought the
nomination would be sent In Monday,
and If it be otherwise he said he would
return 10 Texas and abide his chances.
Holman has not seen Arthur per-
sonally, but depends entirely upon his
strong aacking.

lid not see why the Democrats should =
