BURLEIGH MEN AND HANNIBAL HAMLIN.
He Must Keep His Mouth Shut u He
Went 10 the Convention.
Statement from Gen. Charles HAM
lin of Bangor.
He Declares the Press Did Not Mis-
represent the Attitude of the
BurIeigh Men.
Especial to the Press.l

BANGOR, May 20.-General Charles Ham
lin, son of Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, was seen
at his home in this city Saturday night, by a
representative of the PRESS. He spoke of
the recent caucus in Ward of this city, and
made the following statements in response
to inquiries, of which this was the first:
Is it true Mr. Hamlin, as the Bangor Wing
alleges, that Mr.. Burleigh's friends offered
to elect Hon. Hannibal Hamlin by acclama-
tion as delegate to the Portland Conven-
tion with the understanding that he should
go unhampered by any restrictions, and that
they even offered to divide the delegation
evenly. a proposition which the Whig says
was rejected by the gentlemen who had
charge of the combination forces?
"This may be technically correct" replied
Gen. Hamlin, "but it misrepresents the ac-
tual situation. When it was suggested that
Mr.. Hamlin's name should head the Marble
ticket in the ward, 1t was met by report on
the street that the Burleigh men intended to
do the same thing. Matters thus stood for a
week or more, when it was reported that the
Burleigh men proposed to nominate him in
the caucus by acclamation. No offer of any
kind was made to Mr.. Hamlin himself, or
brought to his knowledge until day or two
before the caucus, when he was informed
that certain friends of Mr.. Burleigh declared
that he could not go as a delegate unless he
would remain silent. This was his exact
language when he heard it: II should like
to see the man that would make such prop
ostion to me-"
How about the offers TO divide the delega-
tion evenly?
mo such offers were made to my knowl-
edge There were some such suggestions to
a friend of Mr.. Hamlin and to myself, but
they came after we had heard that Bur-
leigh's friends had declared that if he went
he must keep his mouth shut oriwords to
that effect. OF course, after such talk had
been made, we could en- tertain no suggestion
from that source"
"Have you read the despatch printed in
the PORTLAND PRESS the morning after the
Bangor caucuses?"
II have" replied Gen. Hamlin.
Do you think it misrepresented the atti-
tude of Mr.. Burleigh's supporters towards
Mr.. Hamlin's candidacy?
mo, sir; not at all.

NEW YORK, May 19.-Bishop Ninde
opened the Methodist Episcopal conference
this morning. The first question before the
house was on the adoption of the report of
the commission on lay and ministerial rep
resentation, appointed at the last general

as sending it down to the annual conference
was concerned, but it was not'adopted as far
as making equal representation OF minlsteri-
al and lay delegations. The order of the
day, the report of the committee on episco-
pacy relating to missionary bishops, was ta-
interesting one, as it dealt with the question
whether Bishop of the African mission is a
true bishop or not. 1t practically settled the
question, and plainly said that a missionary
bishop is bishop in the true sense of the
term.

FoURTH DISTRICT DEMOCRATS
The Big Fight For the Honor of Co
ing to ST. Louis.

BANGOR, May 21.-The Democratic con-
tion for the Fourth District meets ip this
tomorrow. The great interest is in the con-
test of the Hon. j. p. Bass for election as a
delegate to st. Louis. The city delegates
here are against him it is said, and the Wash
ington county leaders are up here with blood
in their eyes. But the friends Of Mr.. Bass
claim that he has strength enough to pull
him through, and tonight they are claiming
his election as sure. His opponent is Ex-
Mayor Hanson of Calais, who will have
strength enough to make the convention in
teresting. The second delegate will be AL
bert w. Madigan of Houlton, or Don Powers
of Houlton. 1t is said here tonight that
Powers has no show, but he may make a
fight.
For the privilege of being defeated by Con-
gressman B0utelle next September, there are
two aspirants; L. j. Stewart, prominent
citizen of Bangor, who has barrel, and a
man named Hall, who has spent most of his
life as a clerk in Washington, but claims a
residence in Pen0bscot county. This contest,
however, seems to excite languid inter-
est only, as the Democrats as we'll as every
one else, know that they have not the ghost
OF a show of capturing the Fourth District
this fall,
The Fourth District Democrats will 60 to
Augusta Tuesday, all for Tobin, of Bangor,
for one of the delegates at large to ST. Louis.
These friends OF Tobin are for Payson
Tucker, Esq, for another delegate, and 1t is
expected that fuckers friends will recipro-
cate.
