day, regarding his intended visit to
Washington on the 4th OF March.
Why have you decided to attend
President Garf.Id's inaugurstion5 81
do not think it would be proper for me
to express my political views regarding
Garfield or the Republican party at this
time as l do not wish to be drawn into

aud formal invitation to be present at
the inaugural ceremonies, and | have
acted in accordance with my sense OF
what is proper in accepting the invita-.
ton and in promising to be prssen. on
the occasion"

sonal huspitslily?' "Oh no, have no

them much better in my own rooms al
the hotel than in any mans private res

other good reason is the fact that !

New York Senatorial Fight.

The Stalwarts and Half-Breeds are
still fighting in New York, the Senatorial
race remaining about the same. The two
factions had conference Tuesday even
ing, but reached no conclusions. 1t is
said the friends of Conkling sent propo-
sitions to the Half-Breeds that they
would accept Depew for the long term if
they would accept Conkling for the short
term, but the Half-Breeds would not
listen to such an arrangement. Senators
Robertson and Woodin were especially
opposed to it. The grand Jury has in
dicted Sessions for bribery, and he has
been admitted to bail. The indictment
is strongly denounced by the Half-Breeds,
who charge that the action of the grand
