day. Treasurer Weeks and Chairman Jones
we're eloseted some time this morning. Mr..
eeks said that the Nationsl Committee
Still adheres to Its address on Saturday
last. -
A short, foxy faced little man, with . big
hesd under . black derby hat, was bobbing
livery now and then he would rush across the
hall with indescribable swiftness toward some
frie d. The jitt,s man was william e.
Chandler, Secretary Of The Navy. To mum
he could see no earthly reason why Mr..
Cleveland should not be inaugurated. This
afternoon the Secretary went ground to see
Chairman Jones: He was elosetsd With that
came out he was as clipper and lively as
ever.

Ihope that MIR b. himself is making no attempt

al Committee nor by any OF its members.
They have acted on their judgm ents at
every step, and need no o. vice from me. do
not wish any political supporter Of mine in
New York to take the slightest advantage OF
mere technical defects In any returns where
the honest intention of the voter Is expressed.
, IL would lar rather lose than gain BY the ex-
clusion Of returns on mere technical grounds.
The presidecy is not desirable If there be the
7 remotest taint on the title. A promotion OF
J that kind no more leads to honor than the
possess. on of forged paper leads to wealth.
