Chicago In Jane. He said to a Stab reporter to

Ohio convention was not merely formal. It was
earnest; they meant It. They were enthusiastic in
their support of Mr. Sherman, and no man oppos
ing him woUid have dared to put up his head in
the convention. The convention would have
rushed over such opposition, and have trodden It
under root. The conventiou and the republicans
of tne entire state were for Sherman earne->uy, and
all the time, tie said there was t?o toundallou
whatever tor the talk of Sherman'* endorsement
being only lukewarm and the result of great labor.

CITY POST-OFFICE SITE.
The Boom subcommittee Cssm Is an
Agreement.
THET will BBCOmCEND THE PURCHASE OF THE
SQUARE BOUNDED BT PKNNSTLTaMIA AVENUE AND
NINTH AND TENTH ABD C 8TREBTB.
The subcommittee of the House committee on
public buildings and grounds, having ln charge
the question of erecting a city post-office building
ln Washington, have at last agreed upon a site.
For several Congresses past 10 has been agreed
that there was urgent need tor a post-office build
ing at Washington, but no agreement as to the lo
callty of the building could be reached, and this
has delayed the passage of a bill for the erection
of the building. Meanwhile a rented building ut
terly inadequate for the purpose, has been occu
pied.
At the opening of this Congress It was the de
termination of the committee to provide a new
building If possible. Tnere was still some con
troversy as to the site, and the subject was under
consideration by a subcommittee of nve. The
Judiciary square site and tue fcQuarebetwe?n sth
and 9th and E and F streets were pressed, and Mr.
Mllllken urged the advam iges ot the site on tue
south side of Pennsylvania avenue, b tween 9th
and 10th streets and Pennsylvania avenue andC
street, in front of which the three principal street
C,This tetter site has been agreedupooby tbe sub
committee. Four of the five members of the sutv
committee were present and they were unanimous
ln their decision. The one member who was
absent, is understood to oppose "?erecUo?j
building in Washington, except in a public park.
He may oppose this proportion tor thai reasoiL
It he does, his will probably be tne only ^dverse
vote in committee, it is hoped, however, that he
will not make any opposition.
The square selected can be purchased, it Is said,
for less than tu00,000, and wlU furnish ample
room lor Government buildings now neceasarj. It
Is an irregular polygon, tending toward an angle
at9ih\areetTand rontalns about 38.000 square
feet. It has a broad frontage on Pennsylvania
avenue, extending from Oth to 10th streets, with
the same frontage on C street, where it would be
conv^enttor loading and unloving the malli
Tne shape and the capacity ts believed bytue
committee to be most aptly suited leu the porfHwe.
It may be got for considerably less man 1600,000.
Tne cost ofthe building proposed toTeuton Judl
c.ary Sauare was estimated at $1,~00,000. ilie
b ullding on this site lor the post-office, the muni
clDjl offices and other public purposes It 1s |
thought woula pot cost more taan this sum.
