Malone has declared from the start that. he
was not in favor Of reputation, and that
his position had not been understood by The
country. George &. GOrllam has been hls
friend throughout the discussion, and has
urged Senator MahOve to make statement
defining his position in terms for tue con-
sideraiion OF the country. II j. announced
that the Virginia Senator has finally come 10
the conclusion that this Is the proper
thing 10 do, and the sphinx that has
so long puzzled the politicians VIII
be no longer mystery. The address
has been prepared some days and has
been seen by the leaders OF the Repub-
lean party. Indeed, it is understood
that within the last few days ii was taken to

to General Garfield. It was fully discussed

DrOyll. With this authoritative cOmmcnda-
