When all Were in the lbrary they had just comfortable ‘standing room, leaving a little circular space in front of the President. Mayor Francis addressed the President, saying: Mr. President: It was my fortune sixty days ago, accompanied by twenty-tive representative dl Of St. Louis, to supplement and earnestly endorse, in behalf of the people of that city, an invitation previously extended to you to attend ‘the annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, Co be held tn the city of St, Louls ‘during: the last Week of September next, The success of that mission in eliciting from you a favorable re- sponse was highly gratitying to the people of St. Louls and of Missouri The disappointment later, consequent upon yourletters of declination, was deep aud all-prevaii but coextensive with it ‘Wasa sentiment of sincere approval upon the Patriotic motives whlch prompted you to such ac- Uon, ‘Che citizens of St. Louis, irrespective of party, nationality or in mass-mneeting as- sembled, the day after your letters were receiv: with one voice enthusiastically resolved to exten to yourself and estimable wire a cordial invitauion to visit their city during the first. week of October next, and instructed their mayor, with a" couunittee of nitty citizens, to convey and deliver the same in person vo you. Assemblages of like character were promptly heid tn almost every county in the State endorstug and emphasizing the action taken in St. Louls. Delegates were appointed at those meet- ings to proceed to the capital of the nation and there to express to the Cluet Executive, in a man- ner as effective as words and form would permit, the warmth of the greeting which awaits him from the people of Missouri in the metropolis of the State.

In response the President said: My reply to your very complimentary and hearty addresswill be very brief and practical, At the time you dia me the honor, with so many of your fellow- citizens, to invite me to your city, I felt it was an invitation which should’ not be declined. I felt that you had something there of which Ste Were deservedly proud.

OHIO'S COMING CONVENTION. ‘What Senator Sherman Expects the Ohio Republicans to do for Him— Governor Foraker’s Position on the “Endorvement”—A Lively Time An- ticipated, Bpecial Dispatch to Tas Evexre Stan ‘CinctxwaTi, Onto, July 25.—The great interest now being taken in the republican state conven- ton, to be held at Toledo, on Wednesday and Thursday of this week, will, without doubt, at- ‘tract more people to that city than have attended @ political convention of like character for many years, In addition to the regular delegations from the cities of Cincinnati, Dayton, Columbus and Cleveland, large numbers will take advantage of ‘the cheap rates and go to see the fun. It Is already apparent that Mr, Sherman's particular friends—those who have commenced shouting, “Now or never,"—will move on Toledo in such force of numbers as to totally dismay and over- throw what opposition there may exist to making ‘the State convention for the nomination of State oMficers, a national oue, so far as the Buckeye ‘State 1s concerned. Mr. Sherman's friends now Say, and upon what is regarded as excellent authority, that unless the Senator is endorsed by ‘@ substantial vote of the delegates he will retire from the feild, or, as others express It, Mr. Sher- man demands an endorsement by the convention, and, If he don’t get it, he will “sulk.” GOVERNOR FORAKER’S POSITION. A Columbus gentieman, evidently well informed Of the situation as It really exists, especially be- between Gov. Foraker and Mr. Sherman, says: “There is no fight or ili-feeling between the governor and Senator. Gov. Foraker long ago Vol- unteered to support the Senator as a Presidential candidate and 1s still loyal tobim, What Gov, Foraker has strenuously objected to was the rush ing Lo of the Presidenual controversy at Une pr ent time. He has freely expressed the opinion ‘that Lo do 80 would seriously injure Mr. Sherman's chances when the Ume came to act, if It did uot prove suicidal, Gov. Foraker ts a friend of both Blaine and Sherman, aud had he un: taken tO use his influence in the Interest Senator in the selection of delegates he would have most cer- lalnly aroused the opposition of the Blaine men 1n the State and compromised, vo say the least, the success of the State Ucket which he will head. The governor, 10 1s weil understood, sul main- lains his origthal position, and when the visiung statesmen, Congressman Thompson, Gen. Grosve- hor and others, came fresh from Seuator Sherman and commenced to dictate to Ube governor, It had the effect of arousing the ire of that gentleman, and be refused to be driven. As soon as Une order Was finally tssued by the ageuts of Mr. Sherman, Uhat he demanded and would have a public ex- pression, that he would ask Ube Toledo convention to ludorse him, Mr. Sherman's Cincinnati organ assumed to READ THE RIOT ACT, and intimated very clearly to Gov. Foraker that If ‘he still persisted he might be laid upon the sheif and another made the standard-bearer of the re- publican party in the coming gubernatorial con- Test. Itis known but tuo well Uaat uals cracking of the whip, if not inspired by Une Senator himself, Was the carrying out of Ube program agreed upon by the managers. The leading Sherman organ, the Commercial Gazette, of wis ci as toned down some’ and will still more between Uhis and Lhe comvei asthe friends of Foraker will not quietly submit to the brow-beaulng tactics adopted in Ube interest of Senator Shesman and ac the expense of the governor. Itis pretty well Understood at Columbus Uhat a very Tacy corre- spondence has been gol on between the gover- norand Senator, and itis in Ube air Uhat unless certain retractions are made the time will come when the people of Ohloshail have an opportunity of judging whether there has been treachery or double-dealing on the part of the governor.” BLAINE'S STRENGTH IN THE STATE. “Has Blaine really much strength in Ohio?” asked THE Sran correspondent. “Yes, he tsstronger vo-day than ever before, and by @ popular vote would carry the State against Sherman now. While it is true that Ohio ts more inclined to give the Senator a solid delegation than on any pre- Vious occasion, it 1s equally true that many of his most ardent friends are oppowed ‘w complicaung matters by agituting the idential question at ‘Unis Ume, belleving 1t will prove the stuimbiing- Diock to the Senator's Presidential aspirations. But Mr. Sherman detnands it, aud there will be Such a pressure fromm the outside that the conven- uon pass the needed resolution, but with what unanimity cannot be foreshadowed at Uhis time, Governor Foraker will not oppuse it, neither will he advocate the passage of it. In point of fact ‘Mr. Sherman’s endorsement would be meaning- less, notwithstanding the great importance at- tached toit. The Senator says that It would be refined cruelty to longer keep hit tn suspense, and 1 1s ‘now or never.’ Mr. Sherman cannot imagine that the delegates to the State convenUion from whom he seess indorsement can be elected a year hence when there is a Presidential issue at stake, Hult of the delegates to the State convention were elected before the question of indorsement was sprung, and the deiegates will vote their own preferences and not those of the people. Mr. Sherman Will gain, practically speaking, nothing beyond the approval of the few hundred in the convention.” TRICKS OF THE SHERMAN MANAGERS, Avery well-authenticated rumor 1s in circula- tion here to the effect that the managers of Mr. Sherman have taken the bull by the horns and have been secretly at work, With a View of select- ing in advance a State executive committee of their own falth—men well versed and skilled in the art of practical politics—to conduct the State cam- paign. The committee to be selected, itis un- heceasary to state, was to consist of Sherman Doomers, with the’Hon. Chas. Grosvenor as the Spirit.
