NICOLAY ANSWERS MCLURE. | Ho Addrosses an Open Lotter to the Phila- delphia Editor, SAYS THE LATTER PLAYED A MINOR PART, Btrong Array of Facts Going to Show That Lincoln Did Not Oppose the Nomination of Hamlin Wamnixatox, July 0.—~Mr, John G. Nico- sident Lincoln's privato secretary has taday addressed the following open letter o Colonel A. K. McCluro, editor of the Phil- adelphia Times: 1 will not reply to your personal abuse; it pves nothing but your rage ana wounded nity ot heing e: x|m~< d In o gross and histor. 1 m sstatenent. You assertod that Presi- dont Lincoln opposed the renomination of Hannital Hamiin for vieo president. 1 re futed that nssertion by calling attention t the writtin rocord, whorein Lincoln in his owa hundwriting explicitly states the con- trary. You now reasscrt your statement, or 10 pit It i other words, you aceuse Prosident Lincoln of actin a low political decelt, nnd ith his own hand writing & delberato 1o he country will not beileve the monstrous fmplication. Allow 100 to restate the fact. I was at th Baltimore convention as spectator. T chairman of the Hinols deleeation, Hon. B, ( Cook, had n conversntion with me' about the course of certain disaffected londers in Tlli- nols. That conversation I rey 1 to the prosidont in a letter to Major Hay, my assist unt private secretury. i part SWhat transpired at home ind what he | henrd fron several sources have made Cook muspieious that Swott may be untrie to Lin coln. Ono of the straws which led him to this bellef Is that Swett has telographed hero ure= fng the lilinols delegation to go for Holt Cook wunts to know confidentinlly wheth Ewett i all pight, whether inurging Holt vice president he refiects t wishes, whether the president has uny prefer- ence, vlther personally or on the score of po - Stics, or whether he wishes ot oven to inter- foro by u confidontial Indication.

Cmicsao, July 9.—A former resident of Tennessee, now residing m this city, who was intimately acquainted with Andrew Johnson when he was the most conspicuous figure in Tennessce, makes the following statement in connection with the controve: which has arisen between Editor McCluro of Philadeiphia and John G. Nicolay as to whom was President Lincoln's choico as a runuing mate on tho ticket of 1564: “In May, L334, preceding the national republican convention, 1_met in the south General Damel E. Sickles. In a conversation with me st that timo on political matters he said to me that he had coma south for the purpose of ascertaining all he could about the character and standing of Andrew Johnson,whom ho was supporting for the nomination of vico president. I asked him at once what he thought Mr. Lincoln would say to such an_arrangement. He re- lied direct and with emphasis, as if ho had forgotten tho strong point in his case, that he yepresented Mr. Lincoln in the matter and that his presence in the south was at the per- sounl request of the president. It is needless for me to say that I did all I could to aid Gen- Sickles in his mission. I leave to Gen- eral Sickles the romainder of the story if ho sees fit to relate it.” soUTH omANA.

RATE WAR MEANS RUIN TO MANY. World Fair Managers Fear the Hand of Eccentric Mr. Warbington —Baltimore Convention Questions Revived. Cnicago Orrice ov Tre Bee, ) Cutcaco. July 9. President Cable of the Rook Island loft hastily for New York last night. When this fact became known today, 1t caused some- thing of a sensation in railroad circles and speculation has boen keptat a high pitch as to the object of ks trip. Recent developments have convinced cer- tain Western passenger assoclation lines, much to their surprise, that Mr. Cable's road is not in sympathy with the efforts being made to dowa the Alton, consequently they have concluded that his presenco in Now York means a vizorous protest to the trank lines against any further enforcement of tho boycott. ‘“I'hings have reached that point uow,” observed & promment general manager, “where somothing must be dove to remove tho causes that threaten to destroy tha pros- pects of a prosperous year. Heavy crops in Towa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Dakota and the northwestern states will give the raiiroads pienty of ousiness this fall and if rates can be maintained they will make money and wo need it, but a rate war would simply ruin us. 1 doubt whother any corpor- ation west of Chicago could keep out of a re- ceiver’s hands with another two yoars of do- creasod earnivgs.” CHAIMAN BURTON TALKS. Burton C. Cook, who was chairman of the Dlinows delegation to the convention at Balti- more in 1864 which nominated Lincoln for second term, contributes to the Hamlin con- troversy a statoment that he persoually knew that Lincoln was not opposed to the late Han- nibal Hamlin, and did not influence the con- veationin any way tonominate Andrew John- son. Mr. Cook says to ascertain how Lincoin stood m the question of the vice-presidency, he went to Washington and saw him on the subject, *And when 1 left. him,” said Mr. Cook, “T was satistied that ho would be per- fectly satisfied with the nomination of Ham- lin. “Hamlin led the convention, and would have carried it had it not been for one thing, Horace Maynard of Tennesseo arose at o critical point and made a rattling specch for Johuson. He spoke in a most passionate way of the great sufferings that had been endured by the union men living in the south d in powerful and forceful words ho por- trayed tho experiences of himself and John- sou in Tennessee and he sat_down with the hall ringing with wiid and patriotic ap- plause. It was that speech, It was those senti- ments so eloquently utiered by Maynard that defeated Hamlin and by no means any desire on the part of President Lincoln.” WORLD PAIR NOVELTIES, A young Chicago inventor has ovt dis- tanced all others in secoring novelties for tho world’s fair. Today it was brought to the notice of the mining department. Fulton Gardoer has an eleotrio drill that can bore 1,000 or 10,000 feet beneatn the surface with a5 much easo at last us through the tirst foot. The power is uppliea directly at the tip, without the use of shafting and the only imit 10 the depth to bo bored will be the depth that the electric current can be conducted. AFRAID OF WARBINGTON. Commenting on the rolease of Warbington, the picture orank, an_evening paper says: “Omaha's cheerful idiot, Mr. Warbicgton, who destroyed Bougereau's painting, ‘The Return of "Spring,’ by throwing a chair through it, has been reléased from custody, and Prof.’ Ives, the superintendont of the world's falr art dopartment, is quite nervous in consequence. It is quite possible that visitors in the art department of the affair will be required to mako afidavits thut they are not from Umaba.” ELEVATED ROAD SALE The Lake street elevated road is to bo sold, not to the Canadian Pacific, but to a syndi: cate of eastern capitalists who haye had r rescutatives here for a wonth It is under- stood that in a day or two the control of tho road, work on which had stopped because of lack’ of funds, wiil pass into the hanas of Jesse Seligman, the Droxels, and tho Thom- son-Houston, et al. Local monied men will, in all probability, bo tucluded in the syndi- cate, and James Pursons of Philadelphia, who was ono of the . uriginal stockholders, may retain_his intorcst. The New York- Boston-Philadelphia_syndicate had a com- petitor, though, in Canadian capitalists who regarded Chicago as aprofitable field for in- vestment, and thoy sent, their engineors and agents to'examine the Lake street road. To the activity of theso Cauadiaus, some of whom reside in Montreal, may be attributed the story that the Canadian Pacific has bought the road. ‘The Canadians, it is pre- sumed, wish they had. Whilo they have not dosisted in thoir offorts, the eastérn Ameri- cans have succeeded to tho extent that the final papers may be signed any of these days, The price bas been fixed and it 1s given out that the syndicate has a_construction com- pany with a capital of $5,000,000 besides an unlimited rovenue on which it can draw should occasion require. Not only this, but the Thomson-Houston ~compaoy indicates that tho motive power is to bé electricity rather than steam. It is not known definitely that electric motors will bo used on the ele- vated lines. They undoubtedly will ve, though, on the soveral 100ps in contemplation which will serve as feeders to tho main or Lako streot branch. At first it was thought advisable to extend the elevated line west to Oak park, but this 1dea seems to have been abandoned in favor of the electric surface road feeders which can bo built cheaply and serve their purpose until the territory is more thickly populated, AN ELECTIIC GRIP SYSTEM, W. H. Applegate of Atlantic, Ia., is the patentee of an olectric railway system which is a novelty in electrical inventions. Applegato’s plan bears a closo resemblance to cable systems. The current will travel along a cablo protected by an underground conduit. The cars will ‘be provided with trolleys worked by a lever gripping the ca- blo. The Applegate conduit company has beon incorporated with a capital stock of £2,500,000. A short line will be built on the south side. SYMPATHY FOR THE CHILIAN REBELS. Resolutions of sympathy with the Chilian rebels wero adopted at the Grand Pacific meeting of the Spauish-Americau club, two- thirds of tho mombears of which are natives of orare dircctly intorestod in the South and Central American republics, IMPORTED CONTRAGT ARTISTS, Some time ago the firm of Guillame & Co., engrayers, Paris and Chicago, hired in Paris three Frenchmen aud one French woman to come to Chicago and work on a_secret pro- cess for shading engeaving. After coming here thoy became dissatisfied with their wagos and quit and one of the men reported tho case to the authorities. Now Guillame & Co., claim that their employes were ‘‘artists’’ in the meaning of tho law and werg thereforo exempt from exclusion as laborers.

Ho relatod wonderful experiences of northern missionary life. Tho annual procession of the Chautauqun Literary ana Social circle occurred at 1:30 this afternoon. Tho graduates and those con- nected with the organization marched across the grounds and then through symbolic arches, gay with flags and flowers, until they reached the pavilion.
