post In that city. inouirlng whether the

promptly replied that he could not consent
to hold Cabinet Office under a man so I'M

In making this reply to the overture Gen.

GENERAL BUTLER w1THDRAws.
General Butler formally withdrew ss

Massachusetts, delegation. They decided
to throw twenty-five votes for Bayard and
the rest for Cleveland. This may result in
giving BayarG good Seud.OG after all.
Major McDayitt and Ben. Palmer, two OF
Buffers workers, tacitIy admitted the fact
thst his Withdrawal was in pursuance OF
compact With John Kelly. The Bay
ard men loudly assert that Buffers
strength would be thrown TO their
m,n. This is an open question, and one
which is dependent on circumstances. The
Bayard men also said that Butler would
return home to-day, and that bis place in
the Convention would be taken by his
alternate. This statement Major McDavitt
promptly denied. lie said Butler would
be in the Convention, aud that he would
