The morning news., 1888-06-15

understanding is that further seconding
speech shall be made by an eastern delegate
whose name is yet withheld, a New Eng
lander known throughout the nation.
What was regarded as little short of tine
explosion of bomb IN the Gresham camp
from w. E. Kent, of Chicago,
one of the first two delegates
in Illinois that were instructed for Judge
Gresham. Mr. Kent represented the second
Illinois district, the Finnerty-Lawler terri
tory, where two-thirds Of The voters are
Irish or lrish-Americans II am only
speaking for myself" he was quoted as say
ing, "but you will find that shall have lots
of company. aud the forty-four Illinois del
egates, if they are needed. / have made up
my mind to disregard instructions and vote
for Blaine. Whyf Because there is going
to be dead lock without doubt, and then
break for Blaine, and then the republi-
cans in my district are solId for him any
way"
SHERMAN's HEADQUARTERS.
The Sherman headquarters were
finally opened to-day with Law
lsh display of bunting and continuous
procession of visitors. Among them was
w. F. Brownlow, son of the famous fight
ing parson, who a member of the national
committee for Tenne ssee and warm sup
porter of Senator Sherman.
THE TALK ABOUT INGALLS,.
The arrival to-day of ex-senator William
Pitt Kellogg and ex-Gov Henry C. War
moth of Louisiana has given rise to some
wellfounded rumors of accessions to boom
the senator from Kansas. Mr.. Ingalls, in
vestigatiOn resulted in showing that the
Kansas boom would indeed receive con-
siderable impetus from the southern states,
and that the whole matter is being operated
upon plan which has the closest secrecy
as its basis. Ex-senator Kellogg was visited
by an associated press reporter, and at once
disavowed any intention of the south as a
whole to pose as a launcher of presidential
booms.
GOOD FEELING FOR INGALLS,.
But" continued he" we have the best
of feeling for Senator Ingalls, and l can
only say from Louisiana, that he will
only receive three votes and possibly more
Pll admit that the south, more particularly
my state, has the kindliest sentiments for
Senator ingalls, for his noble attack on the
democratic political tactics as they are
carried out in our section. Gov Warmoth
in particular feels grateful to him and
withal Senator ingalls, has our moral sup
port. If he does not get all our votes it
will be because the south wishes to defer to
those states which will have to furnish
electoral votes.
Gov. Charles Foster of Ohio was one of
to-day's arrivals. Senator Sherman will
be nominated and elected" said he. "The
Ohio delegation is sohd for him now and all
the time"
THE RECEPTION TO MRS. LOGAN.
The informal reception given by the Vet
eran Union league of Chicago to Mrs.
John A. Logan at the Grand Pa
cific tonight created a stir which
was nothing short of sensational.
1t was ostensibly under the auspices
of the soldiers association, but the presence
of Long" Jones, the recently deposed
chairman of the Illinois state central COM
mittee and protege of the late senator
from Illinois, soon dispelled everything of
sentimental and the political nature of affairs
became apparent. 1t had for its OBJ
lection the mutllation of whatever solid
ness there waslto the Gresham movement in
Illinois and was thought to be a mute appeal
to the friends of Gen. Logan to support
Mrs Logan's candidate, Gov. Alger of
Michigan. In one instance the appeal be-
came outspoken, and that was when the
distinguished lady was conversing with two
soldiers, each delegate from Illinois and
Michigan respectively. 1t was then she
voiced the hope that the two states would
stand shoulder to shoulder, as they did in
times past, which have now become SO
historical, and in which Gen. Logan played
quite prominent part.
SENTIMENT SHOCKED.
Sentiment has received a severe shock,
and many of the soldiers present deprecated
the action taken by the widow of the
most popular volunteer soldier OF the age.
To make the move more significant and
possibly more binding, Mr.. Jones has invited
every delegate who would go to Waukesha,
his residence, where tomorrow is to be spent
in the company of Mrs. Logan and her late
husbands cousin, DR.. Logan. Mrs. Logan
has entered the canvass for Gov. Alger
with her old time energy, spiced with a
tinge of bitterness toward other candidates.
This new element is likely to create a
good deal of bitterness, as it already
has caused CONSERVATION in more than one
delegation. Mrs Logan, on arriving at the
Grand Pacific hotel, was called upon by the
members of the Chicago veterans union
and given one Of the heartiest receptions
ever accorded to a woman in Chicago For
every old soldier she had a warm hand
shake and a word to him personally.
PRAIsING ALGER.
After the reception, in conversation with
the newspaper men who crowded about her,
she paid a high tribute to Gen. Alger. Mrs.
Logan said, "He has always been honora-
BILE in his every dealing, People say that
he is unknown. i ne reason LOF JllS Is, JudJ
he has not antagnized anybody. He has not
abused other republicans. This is more
rban can be said Of some Of the othor candl-
,lates in the field"
.'What do you think of Blainel" Mrs. Lo-
gan was asked.
II am fair enough to believe that Mr..
Blaine is honest. / think he is out of the
race"
What do you think of the chances of the
party" .
"Well, you know l am only a woman,
and my opinion may not be worth much,
but il Gen. Alger is nominated be Will
be elected, that l feel certain of.
He is strong with the soldiers, safe, care
full. honest man, who is true TO his friends.
That ismore thar can be said Of some others.
A man who is true to his friends can be re-
lied upon for his country"
