The National Convention is Not Repre-
sentative of the South.

The National Convention is Not Repre-
sentative of the South.
CHICAGO, January 16th.-The National
Convention of the Africo- American League.
which met here yesterday, was captured by
Cook county spectators, who ousted the
regular delegates and seated eighty-five of
themselves, leaving fifty five delegates TO
represent the balance of the United States.
No State of the South was allowed repre-
ssntation, and the object of the controlling
element seemed to be to make a partisan
body of the Convention.
Hon. G. II. ]. Taylor, of Atlanta, Ca,
late Minister to Liberia, says: Il left the
Convention in disgust. Instead of a Con-
Yention of an earnest body of my race,
looking to the betterment of our condition,
l found the Convention packed with Office
seekers, men who knew nothing of our
race in the South, and whose object is self
aggrandization."
AT the Africo-American Convention this
morning James Pelham, of Missouri, was
chosen temporary Secretary. Illinois has
more delegates than any other State, while
the Carolinas, Georgia and Alabama have
but one delegate each. Professor Price, of
North Carolina, delivered an address. The
Committee on Permanent Organization
recommended w. A. Pledge, of Georgia,
for President.
The last session of the day was devoted
to the reading of communications received
by the Secretary. Among them was let
ter from Judge Albion W. Tourgee. He
suggested that the Africo- American League
should be secret organization, in order
that its members might not be in danger of
murder and outrage in the South. A mo-
ton was carried to refer this letter to the
Committee on Constitution.
Adjourned until tomorrow.
