THENE WAB A RUMOR IN ‘CIRCULATION yestorday at the Grand Pacifle to the elfect that the Grant and Sherman factions had formed n combination by which on the secont ballot the Sherman vote was to be ven to Grant. It was further sald that tho Sherman compromise was effected through tht headquarters at Washington, For this ‘ favor, If Grant got the nomination, John Sherinan was ‘to be retalned ns Secretary of the ‘Treasury, if the election went favorably, 'The Orant, people took peculiar pride In cir eulathyg the report, and did all they eould to get itto thereportorlal cars. “'Thechances are that it will kit Sherman,” said a Grant man, “and that’s what we want to do. ‘The policy of trading in this way is bad, but it comes from Washington.” AU brief talk with jay.

When he is withdrawn, then it will be time to talk of others, but no man can deliver the votes of the trends of Mr, Shorman,”” 2 “Mr. Sherman himself couldn't delly the vole,” sald another delegate standing by, “Ibis ale, aud itis elreulated by the Grant men for effect,” 5 “Wo hold tho key to tha situation,” sald Gov, Deninson, “and others will come to ns Tong before we will go to them. We have formed no combinations, and will make none with anybody. Of course, we will, like cyery other candidate, take all the voles wo can Bt. eThe fact {s, this rumor had Its origin tn fio Grant headquarters. It was dutended to affect the Southern delegates, muy of Whois are for Sherman, By making them believe that Sherman had surrendered: it was thought that many of them wottld be brought over ty Grant.

Besides, Joby Sherman himself tg reported to nye sald that he did not favor Grant because he was ifrald if he was nominated would be hard work to elect him,—hurder than any other man, And ‘this was the reason that there would never be a combination between Sherman om Grant, i There was another rumor flying about to thy spese Git Gartield would be sprung as a les candidate if no result was reached to-day on nfourth ballot. It can be sald that Gen.
