are receiving letters from various parts 81 the
country making inquiry concerning the political
acts Of Thmna, 4. Hendricks IN the United States

muuications with reference to the latter and
better half of the Cleveland ticket is that
just received by Mr.. Edward Mcpherson, the secre-
tary of the Republican Congressional Committee
from Rep escutatiye Isaac tephen-cn. now at his
home i'm Wisconsin. Mr.. Stephenson asks if the
statement made that Mr.. Hendricks never voted 10
furnish dollar a man TO prosecute the war
against rebellion is true. Mr.. McPherson's answer

ing tie Bourbon statesman of Indiana nov aspir-
ing to preside over the United states Senate. The
correspondence is as follows
