WASHINGTON.
At Washington.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-The great in
terest felt by government employees in
the proceedings Of the Chicago Conven-
ton is plainly manifested. Very little
work was done in the executive Depart
trent. Clerks gathered in little groups
to lesk at the bulletins and discuss the
outlook. While desks were generally
vacant, the Postma ster General was at
his Office early and attended strictly to
his official duties throughout the day.
Daring the morning be received large
number of private kilograms, several of
which he answered. IL was rumorsd
that he was explaining to friends in Chi
cago the reasons that influenced his 40
sion in removing an officer of the de-
partment who s0agat 10 array against
the Postmaster General the Grand Army
Of the Republic. Ii IL sid at the de-
ptrtment that the official record pub
lished will completely justify the action
of the Postmaster General ia the mat
ter. At the close of ofiios hours Score
tary Teller ioiaed General Gresham in
his private room In his department and
they discussed the sination while wait
ing for news from the West. Both off
GERS manifested answering LOYALTY TO
the candidacy of President Arthur. The
session of the Cabinet during the after
uoon was very short, and little official
business was transacted. The President
was in good spirits and betrayed no
anxiety. In fact" said one Cabinet
officer, II don't believe he felt as much
concern 10 the convention as in the mat
ters of his Cabinet"

ton. IN az interyiev today, said '' The
assertion has been M ade in certain
newspapers that | had pledged myself
and the Arkansas delegation to Arthur
and am now unfairly leaving him. The
fact IL that have never spoken or writ
ten a word to him on the subject of his
candidacy. felt friendly to him, an d
do yet. and if he had developed suffi-
cient strength in his own State and 9th
er Northern States that give Republican
majorities would have supported him,
and l think the Arkansas delegation
would have Joined me In this conelu-
sion, although three of the delegates
have from the first been adverse to him.
Our state Convention WAS the second
one held, Louisiana holding the first.
Az that time no Northern State had
voiced its wishes. hence We had no light
on the subject of southern preference,
and Tor that Very reason our State Con-
ventlon had no indication whatever as
To how Its delegates should vote, il be-
ing generally understood that our un-
pledged delegation at Chicago should
be governed by the results of ounven-
tions In the States that give an electoral
voice. When L ascertained that Arthur
had carried only about twelve Republi-
can Congressional delegations in the
Union, and had failed to carry his own
State, l reluctantly came to the conclu-
sion that his candidacy was hopeless"

Tom Griffin for whose arrest and
delivery TO the Sheriff of Canadian
District the Nation paid a reward
recently Of $500, and whose trial
was set for the 18th ins:., charged
with the murder of Sunte Brewer,
escaped from his guard, Sunday
night, at Webber's Falls. 1t Is
stated that he walked out from the
building where he and his posse Of
four persons were, under me ex-
cuse, and vas followed by only one
OF them, Cal. Hanks. After he
had proceeded short distance he
suddenly turned upon Hanks and
presented revolver, al the same
time commanding hin to unbuckle
his belt and deposit his Own on the
ground. This was done, and he
was ordered to leave, with notice
that If he raised an alarm he would
be shot down. Hanks, who was
not eeremonious on the order Of
his going, went TO call his vigilant
partners in the guard business and
Griffin to speak to his attorney
I When Hanks and one other re-
/ turned. G. siffin was about mounting
a pony which remained hitched,
after church in the village, to en-
able i young gallant to see his lady
dear and had one person with him.
A dozen or fifteen shots were inter
changed between the two sides, but
no one was hurt, and Tom departed.
The escape Of Griffin was feared so
much since his delivery TO the
Sheriff of Canadian District, that
Chief Bunch had directed tie Sher-
! if of Illinois District to cross the
river and aid in holding him for
trial, and this fact coming to Grit
! fms car probably hastened his de-
parture. We do not desire TO ex-
press any opinion of the case itself
until its merits shall appear on ju-
dicial investigation, but we do in
tend to say that The conduct Of
stand Gray, the Sheriff. and Of a
portion Of the posse he placed over
him, and the removal Of all re-
straint in the personal movements
of the accused are. highly repre-
hensible, discreditable to himself
as an officer, and subversive of all
confidence in the enforcement o.
law. We say further, that if th'
/ facts are such a. reported by re
spectacle citizens, that the Sheriff
should be suspended from office
! and the next Council adopt such
? legislation as viii place proper safe
guards and restraints around &C
cused persons, and relieve th'
county from all such official NAL
