General Groner, of Norfolk, left for home
last night He has taken very little part
in the negotiations for harmony which
have been going on. He SAID yesterday
that be came here on private Du9incsS. ne

be.
Ex-senator Riddlebereer has taken no
part whatever IN the fight since arriving

seated at the Metropolitan Hotel. Last

express his opinion of the boss and ms
followers. IL Is not good opinion.
IN PLEASANT lUHoE.
The ex-senator from the Shenandoah

FOR WHAT TT Is WORTH
The Dispatch correspondent va9 present
and said that he would print tins CONVEX
sAtiOn lust fot what IL was worth, and the
ex-senator laughed and said that be- had 10
objection. Then somebody el'e SAID:
Senator, Won viii create the Impression
that YOU are trying 10 get back into the
Democratic party, and the first thing Won
know some Of your old party friends in the
Valley will want 10 be- sending fiddle
berger leleCates TO the Richmond Conyen-
ton" This VIII make Judge Harms and
Colonel O'FerralI wonder what is going 20
happen.
Inc ex-senator laughed heartily, then
became composed and there was far
away look in his blue eyes which might
have meaut that he WAS sorry that ever he
left the Democratic party.
No regular Cabinet meeting was he'd to-
dav. but the President held conferences
with all of the Cabinet officers IN tbe city.
He was talking privately for more than an
hour with Secretary Noble, and the i'm
preston is that be talked of the reckless
v.v ina which Tanner is running he Pension
Bureau. Thus fellow Tanner is IN league
with the pension sharks and Is PAYING ont
40 much money that there IS bound 90 Dee
III investigation on the part of Congress
unless the Administration throws Tanner
overheard H. IS thought that he vlll 60,
but not until after the next annual en-
campment Of the Grand Army Of tine Re
pubic.
AFRAID TO SCALP HIM.
They IRE literally afraid to take the cor
poral's SCALP until after III" cncampment,
as the fellow Is -ucu 4 bold demagogue
that BE would raise too big row. Tanner
, is re-voting 80 many people and giving ont
such large new pensions that wen Ecpuh-
licau congressman are protest. -. Tanner
is dischargIng every man from the Pen
sion-Ofhce who is not IN tull sympathy
with the raiding process now going on.
F. O'Connor, OF Norfolk, Va, was among
the Presidents callers to-day.
