JOHN ]. Ingalls,

HOW TT OBTAINED PUBLICATION.
Especial Dispatch to Globe-Democrat.l
Chicago, ILL.,, June est is acknowl-
edged by Kansans that the letter pub
lished to-day coming from Senator In
gals to a member of the delegation, in
which some assertions are made which
are classed by his friends as indiscreet,
is genuine, aud It is claimed that the
document got out through the treach-
cry of few men In the delegation who
are personally opposed to Mr.. Ingalls,,
and did all in their power to prevent
his receiving a complimentary vote in
the convention. They decline to
give the name of the delegate who
received the letter, but state that he is
not TO blame for its getting out. The
way it happened was this:
When the delegate received the mis-
sive from the Senator he read it, called
messenger and dispatched the docu-
ment to Gov. Osborne, Chairman of
the delegation, for perusal and return.
A party who saw the letter followed
the messenger boy from the room,
overlook him in the hall of the fourth
floor of the Palmer House, snatched
the missive from the little fellows
hand, aud disappeared in the crowd.
The boy was badly frightened, and
thought the best way out of the diff
Guilty was to keep still. Therefore he
did not report the occurrence at head
quarters nor the sender of the message,
and nothing more was heard of 1t
until it appeared in print this morning,
creating decided sensation and much
bitter feeling among the Kansans.

A CANDID LETTER.
Ingalls, Writes 10 a Delegate.


Chicago, Ill, June 23.-The follow.
ing letter from Senator John ]. ingalls,
has been received by a member of the
Kansas delegation in the Republican
convention:
@Vice-President's Chamber, Wash
ington, ID. c., June l6.-Yours of 18th
at hand. 1t does not make much diff
ference who is nominated in my iudg-
ment. The candidate will cut but a
small figure in the fight. We can elect
anybody or we shall fail. The least
conspicuous, and therefore the least
complicated man, will be the best
somebody like Hayes in 1876. Among
all the men named there is not one
'leader;' no one whose personal or
historical relations to the people would
make difference of 1000 votes in the
canvass. Sherman, Allison, Harrison,
etc, have records that would be awk-
ward ON the tariff, the currency, the
Chinese question, etc. Depew's con-
nection with railroads and corpora
tions would be heavy load, especial
ly in the agricultural States. We
might as well nominate Gould or
Vanderbilt at once. My impression
is that Alger or Gresham come nearer
filling the bill than any of the others,
with some fellow like Phelps, of New
Jersey, who could reach the conserva-
tive forces of the East and get contri-
buttons from the manufacturers and
Wall street. But you can judge much
better than I what is best after con-
sulting with the delegates.
@I have the use of the wires during
the convention, by the courtesy of the
company, and You can therefore tele-
graph me fully at all times if anything
of interest transpires.
Truly yours,
JOHN ]. INGALLS,"

On the 25th inst the first run of the
canning factory was made. Beans
were processed. The machinery acted
admirably and did its work rapidly
and satisfactorily. So soon, however,
as the Gaping machine is brought into
action the rapidity of the work will be
increased. Delay In delivery of some
essentials has necessitated a delay in
using this machine. Beans are being
offered the company in liberal quanti-
ties. Care should be taken TO bring in
none but straight unblcmishcd stock.
Speckled beans are not wanted and
will not be received. Canning has nc
effect on the specks.
You may cook, you may can. the beans
ifyou will,
But the speck on the pod will remain
there still.

Injustice TO Southern Streams.
T1'imes-D


When the Senate committee on com.
merce, in going over the rivers and
harbors bill, took advantage of the abb
sence of the Southern members to in.
dulge in sectionalsm by striking out q
number of Southern streams, several
Of them in Louisiana, there was Il
strong and vigorous protest, and the
injustice of the action taken was very
clearly demonstrated.
II was hoped that when the bill was
brought before the Senate itself, this
injustice could be corrected, thus avoid.
ing any conflict between the confer.
ence committees of the two houses
This hope, however, has been disap.
pointed, The Senate supported the
committee in its action and restored
but one of the lost items, Bayou La.
fourche, and even in this case, cut
down the original appropriation from
100000 to S2b,000.--1imes Democrat
The moral of this is that "Southern
members - should not allow State pol
itics to keep them out of their seats in
the Senate Chamber.
