was inferred that Gen. Beaver and Gen.
Harry White would be present, the dispatch
reading: Can send Gen. Beaver TO meet

was received on Saturday and the meeting
had been fixed for the next week, IT was
supposed that an error had been made in

be with YOU last week of month; Gen. White
tonight" Gen. White was in Pittsburgh,
Tuesday, attending the Supreme Court. He
started on the O'Clock train for Somerset,
but an accident, landslide, detained the
train so much that he was told at Connells
vile that he could not reach Somerset until
too late for the meeting. and after sending
the following dispatch to Chairman Pile, he
returned to Pittsburgh:
