The Cattle Men LOCK ffOrhs.
ST.. LOUIS, Nov. 1.-THE first National
Convention of Cattle Men ever held in this
country opened its session this morning.
There are delegates present representing
nearly all the Western States and Terri
tories, and several Eastern States, and

vention was called to order, and it was an
nounced as the object of the gathering to
form a National League of the cattle in
terests for mutual good. After urging
unanimity of action, Col. @. G. Rainwater
of st. Louis was introduced as temporary
Chairman. On motion of ex-senator
Dorsey of New Mexico, Delegate Thomas
Sturgis Of Wyoming was made temporary
Secretary. Mr.. Sturgis then read the call
issued January last, pursuant to which the
convention met. A heated discussion en-
sued, participated in by Messrs. Dorsey OF
New Mexico, Curtis of New York, Judge
Lindsay of Texas, and many others, upon
the resolution of Gen. Curtis as to the
method of making up the Committee on
Credentials and Permanent Organization.
The Western delegates commended Tor q
representative from each Stock Associa-
ton and the Eastern delegates for one
delegate only from each State.
"As Far AS L Am Concerned"
P1rTsBURG, Nov. 17.-Joseph D. Weeks,
Treasurer of the National Republican
Committee, was in the city to-day and re-
turned to New York. In an interview he
said: "It is impossible to change the face
of the returns, except in case of manifest
clerical errors and under certain condi-
tions to count the ballots that were re-
jected by them as blank or defective. Any
action looking to a change in the returns
except as above stated must be brought
before the courts, who have the power OF
mandamus to instruct inspectors and
canvassers to change the face of the
returns. Then the National Committee
will stick it out. as the people of this
country expect their National Committee
to exhaust every means within their power
to reach the actual results Of the election,
and until it has done that ii will remain in
active service. AS far as ! am concerned,
l think there is still some hope"
