ELKINS A HARRISON MAN.
Chairman C1arkson on the Appointment
of the New Secretary.

Chairman C1arkson on the Appointment
of the New Secretary.
CHICAGO, December 19.-Regarding
President H MS reasons for sappoint--
ingnStephen B. Elkins to the cabinet,
Chairman Jas Clarkson of the Repub-
lican National Committee, this morning,
made statement which negatives the
stories that have been printed about MIR.
Elkins having been Blaine man, and that
he con suited the Secretary before he az
cepted the place. Mr.. Clarkson said:
''Elkins has been Harrison man since
before the nomination of the President,
and he at that time had permanent resi-
dence, he would have been one of the or
iginal members of the cabinet. Contrary
to the popular belief, Elkins led the Harri-
son forces at tie convention, he was the
rlsOn's supporters, aud he carried with
him the promises made by Mr.. Harrison.
This may look bit queer, but it is true,
nevertheless.
