dispatch in the Herald stating that At
torney General Williams, while Sen
ator. was appointed visitor to the Mil
itary Academy at West Point. and
drew $4,000 mileage in his capacity as
official visitor. on the assumption that
he travelled from Oregon, while IN fact
he remained In Washington, Is without
foundation. Mr.. Williams states that
he not only was never appointed vis-
itor to West Point, but that he was

On the front of the neck and upper
part ofthe breast are the rattles-as
