 PRESIDENT HARRISON ON THE RESULT.
 WASHINGTON June 10.-It was half past five o'clock when President Harrison learned the republican convention had endorsed his administration by nomi, mating him for a second term. He was sitting in his office at the time chatting in the most composed manner with several members of his cabinet in regard to the work of the convention and was probably the least excited man in the group. The arrangements at the White House for the reception of news from the convention were admirable, special wire with su. preme right of way, establishing free and uninterrupted communication between the convention hall and the White House.
 One of the members of the cabinet sug gested that the president say few words to the newspaper men, remarking that they were extremely anxious to hear from him. The president hesitated few minutes and then made a short address He stood behind his desk and the cabinet officer, ladies and newspaper men formed a semi-circle in front of him. While his manner was calm he showed deep feeling in his remarks. He said:
 "Well, gentlemen, I have had a good deal of intercourse with newspaper men It has been mostly at arms-length, excepi on a few occasions of this kind; and ye, some of you know that while am very averse to intverviews, my door has always been open to a friendly call from any oi you and any information about pubic bus iness has been at your disposal.
 '.I can only say with reference to thii event that has brought you here that tn, first thought that fills my mind is one o gratitude and thanks to the great multi tude of friends who have in this way ant divers other ways expressed approval O. very conscientious, though possibly nov and then mistaken, attempts to serve tn, country upon republican lines. clain no other credit than that of hsvinl attempted with spsring myself as to labor to discharge these public duties conscien tiously, cannot expect my democrati friends to think I have been on right line
