AsuEvIlLE, N. O., March 15.-Hon.t
James Clarkson, chairman OF the Ro-
publican national committee, who came
to Ashevillo four weeks ago to try and
arrest q siege Of infammatory rheuma-
tism, came too late, and has had So
vero and painful attack Of it. Mrs.
Clarkson and a portion Of his family
arc with him. To-day tho Associated
Press representative called on Mr.
Clarkson and asked him if the reports
that he is q candidate for tho presi-
dency wero true. He replied: 81
"0f course thero is no foundation
whatever for such reports. My answer
to all inquiries and kindly profiers of
help on this subject has been constant
ly no.n
"Who is your preference for tho Re-
publican nomination ?" Fl
i have not taken sides in the mat,
ter and as Chairman Of the National
Committee, I could not properly do so.
l can only say that I hope tho party
will exercise abundant caution and
deliberation in its choice, for it
will give itself victory or defeat inl
making the nomination. We need q
man who will heal all Republican divi-
sions everywhere; who will poll tho
full party vote and draw most strength
on tho million first voters this year and !,
most heavily draw from the Democrats
in Now. York and the northern states
men already half way in favor OF Repub-
licanism by being in favor OF reciproci-
ty."
Glow can that man be found?'
tFind q man most sure to hoal and /
unite and inspire the party in New
York, Indiana, Wisconsin and other
doubtful states and the man who will
draw enough Republican farmers back
from the Alliance to make Nebraska,
Kansas, Iowa, Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin surely Republican and you will
have found the man. 81
There is strong undertone or pop
ular movement toward Uncle Jerry
Rusk and one Of gathering power for
Governor Mckinley u
"1s not it too early for Mckinley, SO
soon after the passage OF his billT'
There is nothing in. that. The Re-
publican party is responsible for tho
bill and tho author would only add
honor to it. Mckinley is one OF, half
dozen Of men given : to tho na,-
ton in century, He is strong
and splendid in everything thai
Americans most. admire aud he
will be President some day. Uncle
Jerry Rusk, in whose,life there mas been
much that touches with sympathy the
millions OF American homes that are
acquainted with the struggles and hard
ships, would make strong and popular
candidate" Il iili.f All
"But,n said Mr.. Clarkson, ."the party
will do the right thing at Minneapolis.
Blaine could be nominated and could
be elected beyond a doubt if he would
take it and he is our only certain sure
winner. President Harrison has added
to tho glory OF the country and party
both. Ee has grown steadily in public

WASHINGTON, D. O., March 15.-Com-
missioner Raum was examined before
tho house investigating committee to-
day. He was questioned as TO his con-
nection with tho Gypsum Mining com.
pany, and refused to answer, saying
that he would not answer any ques.
tons relating to his private affairs.
Mr.. Wheeler said there was no power
to compel the testimony and tho matter
could bo brought up later and, il
necessary, taken to the house.
NJ. Cooper asked If witness had not
borrowed money on the endorsement
OF an attorney named Lockwood.
The witness said ho had borrowed
$500 OF Mr.. Lockwood. In answer to
further questions, he said that he met
Lockwood on the street aud asked him
for q loan of $500 for few days. Lock-
wood replied that no did not have it,
but could get it. They went to the
office OF John w. Thompson, president
OF the National Metropolitan Bank, and
witness got $500 on a note for three
days endorsed by Lockwood. He paid
the note and fifty cents interest at the
end OF tho three days Of grace. Tho
making of tho note had no relation
whatever to tho promotion Of female
clerk.
Gen. Raum said he had made speeches
in Mr.. Cooper's district before the last
election and tried to defeat him. A
number OF old soldiers had called on
him with reference to pension matters.
He had taken their memorandum and

in the matter were on file and would be

Representative Little, OF New York,
asked if tho commissioner had ever
given Democratic candidates for Con-
isress the privilege Of making claims

not in that way being used for political
purposes. Tho commissioner did not
recall any case inwhich he gave Demo-
cratic contestants special privileges.
