General John C. Black of Illinois and

are leading candidates for the office of
commander In chief, and the friends of
General Miles hope to have the encamp
ment accept General Miles as a compro
mise candidate.
With General John A. Logan, General
Miles was active In organizing the Grand
Army of the Republic and has always
been received with much enthusiasm at
encampments. General Miles will retlra
from the army this week and his.sup
porters declare he is an ideal man to head
the Grand Army of the Republic, as ha
will have much time to attend to the du
ties of commander in chief.
When General Miles was asked if he
was a candidate for the position he 'said
he did not wish to be considered In con
nection with the honor. A prominent
Washington member of the Grand Army
said to-day he knew of no movement
among District of Columbia veterans to
support General Miles. .
