MORNING CALL ON THE NOMINEE FOR VICE PRFsT.
pEST-Hk coRREcTs A NIssTATENENT FROM CHI
CAGo-HIS INTENTIONS FOR THE FUTURE, KrC
STAR reporter made an early call on Gen Logan
this morning at his boarding house. on 18th street.
Inc visitor was shown to the front room in the
second story, where he found several ladies en-
gagged In sewing and reading. At one end OF the
suit OF black, and dark swarthy features the
more conspicuous In contrast with the pre-
yailing whiteneSs OF the room in its
summer dress and the light attire OF the
ing morning paper, and the other ladies devoted
themselves to their work and books in silence
The general held out his hand to the vis tor, and
IN answer to question as to whether he had
said that he had received large number OF tele-
grams from all parts OF the country but that they
were merely congratulatory.
II wish that you would correct pfSStatement
the general, and taking up paper he read from q
Chicago dispatch follows: "a telegram had
been sent by Senator Cullom to General Logan
saying that the Blaine in the Illinois delega-
ton were clamorOuS to be released from the
pledge to vote for him."
"There is not a word of truth in that statement
said the general. 81 received no such dispatch
The dispatch sent was after the third ballot had
been TAKEN and sent 1t because thought that IL
was the right thing TO do, and not because thought
that my delegates were leaving me- The fact Of it
was that was assured at the time that they would
continue TO stand by me, and in the last ballot
there were seven that refused to change their vote
from me-"
In reply to a question Gen. Logan said that he
expected to remain in this city until Congress had
adjourned. He did not know where his headQuar.
tiers would be after that but he expected to go into
the campaign.
Before the visitor left the generals carriage was
announced, and he said that he must go to the Cap
ltol 10 attend q committee meeting.

The District Delegates,

THE LACK OF HARMONY BETWEEN MEssRs. CoNGER
AND CARSoN-MR. CARSON ON THE NATIONAL CON-
MlTTEE
Among the small comedies Of the convention
none afforded more amusement than the action of
the District OF Columbia delegation. Perry Carson
declined to permit Conger TO state his vote, but
persisted every time his was called in rising
and shouting out one vote for Blaine, while Conger
cast his vote for Arthur. When the District of
Columbia vas called, on the last ballot. Carson
sprang up and announced two votes for Blaine
III was then COnger'S turn to challenge the an
nouncement and cast his vote for Arthur.
In the vote for Vice President a laugh was raised
when the District OF Columbia was reached and its
two delegates rose In turn and voted for Logan,
this being the first time since the opening of the con-
venton, when they had voted the side OF any
question before the convention When the District
delegation was called up for the tenth time to an
nounce its member of the national committee Post
master Conger was absent temporarily, and Perry
Carson, with the consent OF the alternate. Andy
Gleason handed in his own name as q member OF
the committee. Mr. Cenger soon heard OF what
had been done and rushed back to his seat, where
he endeavored, though in vain, to protest. While
ne was endeavoring TO address the convention, the
chair decided that he was out Of order.
81 want to know, said Mr. C0nger, whether the
voice OF the District OF Columbia is to be suppressed
by the chairman"
81 very much wish," said the chair, "that could
suppress it,
