Secret Negotiations Said to he Pro-

Cleveland, O., June 3.-The Leader

Cleveland, o., June 3.-The Leader
says:
81. D. Hazard, financial secretary
of the colonization and social settle
ment department of the Salvation
Army, is authority for the statement
that secret negotiations are being
carried on looking to a reconciliation
between Gen. VIM BUutn and his son
Ballington. Father and son have been
estranged for FIVE years, the son hav-
ing in the meantime organized the
Volunteers of America. The cause of
the eStrangement, according to Mr.
Hazard, was the refusal of Ballington
Booth to submit to the order of trans
fer from the United States to Canada.
If the reconciliation is effected it will
mean Ballington's return to the Sal
vation Army, and probably result in
the adjustment of the Volunteers of
America and its affiliation with the
Salvation ARMY.

At the Confederate Veterans reun-

tanned therein: Probably the genera

dered by the war, and the conten-
tions and misapprehensions which
led to it, The passions and prejudices
aroused by the war threatened TO
implant sectional animosities which
time could never heal. We southern
people once regarded Abraham Lin
coin as one of the most despicable
creatures that ever lived. Now, willis
we do not indorse the policy which ho
pursued, we honor him for his un-
questioned sincerity, patriotism and
ability. On the other hand, the peo-
pie of the north once regarded Jeffers
son Davis as the incarnation of sel-
