The preliminary trial will be held to-night at 7:30. It is thought Bakewell will be lynched before morning. He has committed to murders before this. Denver, July 19 -- Gen. Grant in an interview said, "I can say without hesitation I will give Garfield my hearty support, there is no reason why any republican should not vote for Garfield, I know him to be a man of talent, thoroughly accomplished and an upright man. I have nothing against Gen. Hancock, but Garfield is the man for the office." He denied the report that he had complained of Conkling and Logan having deceived him. He had no letter from either of them, either before or after the convention or since his return to America. He said of all men Conkling and Logan were the last for him to find fault with, and he felt more proud of the 312 that stood by him than if he had received the nomination by unfair means. The republicans of Manitou, and special members of the state press association were presented to Gen. Grant last evening. The party will be joined by Ulysses, jr., and Fred Grant. They visit Leadville next week and then Denver. Gail Meÿer Kilgore Casa Grande, AZ
