LAYING OUT THE WORK.
A National Committeeman Doesn't Want
Burchard for Chapiaiu


CHICAGO, June 14th-A meeting of the
Republican National Committee was held
to-day. The proceedings were opened by
Clarkson, on behalf of the sub Committee
on Arrangements, making a report con-
corning the plan OF seating that had been
adopted. The allotment of 200 more tickets
TO Chicago than the original 700 proposed
was the subject of debate. As a result. the
number of tickets for local distribution was
decreased, being reduced from a total of
900 to $50.
Clarkson called attention to the matter
of selecting Chaplain. Several members
of the committee at once interected that
different Chaplain ever morning was de-
sirable. One committeeman mischiey-
iously proposed that no Chaplain by Sc
lected by the name of Burchard. Another
gentleman moved that the Chaplain s
prayer every morning be submitted in
manuscript, before delivery, to the Chair
man of the Convention.
Chairman Jones thought the officers of
the Convention would have enough to do
to attend to their own prayers.
The matter of prayers and Chaplains
was them promptly relegated to the sub
Committee on Arrangements.
Without taking up the contests, of which
there are several-including the important
one from Virginia between the Malone and
Riddleberger delegations-or the appoint
ment of temporary officers for the Conven-
ton, in which so much interest centers, the
committee at l P. NJ. adjourned until s
o'clock tomorrow night

A LITTLBzBeem FOR ALGER.
The arrival of ex-senator Kellogg and
eg- Governor Wsrmoth of Louisiana hes
given rise to rumors of accessions to tie
boom of Senator Ingalls, of Kansas. Mr.
Kellogg was seen this evening, and said /
: She South has no intention of forcing a
presidential boomy but we have the best o.,
feelings for Ingalls,; and can say that from
Louisiana he wiki receive at least three
votes. Louisiana feels kindly towards In
gals for his noble attack on the Democratic
political tricks, as they were carried out in
our section"
MRS. LOGAN BOOMING ALGER.
Mrs. John Logan has entered the canvass
for'Governor Alger with her old. time en-
ergy, spiced with tinge of bitterness to-
wards other candidates. This new ele-
ment is likely to create good deal Of bit
terness, and it has already caused constern-
alton in more than one delegation. Mrs.
Logan, on arriving at the Grand Pacific,
was waited upon by members of the Chi
cago Veterans Union, and given hearty
reception. She had word and hand shake
for every old soldier In speaking to the
newspaper men who crowded about her
she paid high tribute to Alger. She
says: " He has always been honora-
Bile in his dealings. People say he is
unknown. The reason for this is that he
has not antagonized anybody He has not
abused other Republicans. This is more
than can be said of. some other candidates
in the field. l am fair enough to believe
that Blaine is honest but think he is out
of the race"
What do you think of the chances of
the party ?"
My opinion may not be worth much,
but If Alger is nominated he will be
elected. He is strong with the soldiers,
and is safe, careful, honest man, who is
true to his friends. 4 man who is true to
his friends can be relied upon for his coun-

Bomb Exploded.

Bomb Exploded.
CHICAGO, June 14th.-The first combina-
ton between any two leading candidates
for the Presidency was brought to a culmi
nation to-day. The friends of Harrison
and Gresham met quietly and in short
time their forces were harmonious. 1t
was an Indiana family gathering. Among
the harrison leaders present were Atror-
ney-General Kitchener, ex Congressman
Peele and Secretary of State Griffin. Gres-
hams representatives included G. w. Fair
banks, State Senator Graham and Colonel
Henry Drew. Both sides recognized the
folly OF the friends of the two Indiana
men coming to Chicago to fight each other.
The conference resulted in an understand
ing that the friends of Harrison and
Gresham should not attack each other
that both sides should do the best thew
could for their men in the friendliest spirit.
and that the Indiana delegates should vote
solidly from start to finish. When it
should become evident in the Convention
that Harrison could not be nominated, then
Gresham should be accorded the support of
his native State. The time when the dele
cation should, in such contingency. begin
voting for Gresham was left 10 the honor
of the delegates themselves.

Gresham, says there is the friendliest feel
