NEW YORK, Dec. The following cor
respOndence between the Hon. J. J. Van
Allen and the president and department of
state is made public and is self cNplana-
tory.
NEWPORT, Il. l., Nov. ~
The Hon Walter . Gresham, Secretary
of State:
sill have the honor To acknowledge
receipt of your letter of the 18th of Octo-
Der, in which you officially notify me that
the president, by and with the advice and
consent ST the senate has appointed me
ambassador TO Italy.
Since the receipt of your letter | have
given the matter my most serious and
careful attention, and As the result OF my
reflections | have concluded to ask you to
express to the president my decision not
to accept the office rendered me,
Il must beg that You will not infer from
this action any lack Of appreciation on my
part of the honor conferred. On the con
trary, fully comprehend the dignity, i'm
pOrtauCc and responsibility OF the position,
and having this realization | may frankly
add that the nomination was extremely
gratifying to mc-uot in Il personal sense
merely, but more particularly because of
the opportunity afforded me of represent
ing my country in such a manner As
hoped might be satisfactory to the Ameri-
can people and creditable to the admins
tratlOn.
That Campaign Contribution.
Among the comments upon my nom
nation which appeared in the public press
one charge only merits attention not bt-
cause it was true, but because ii was and
| suppose still l. believed 10y many persons
unfamiliar with the individuals concerned
and the facts essential to the formation of
an accurate Judgment. The charge was
that l received the appointment in return
for 4 contribution OF 5000 10 the Demo
cratic national campaign fund. While my
nomination was pending in the senate it
did not seem fitting and proper for me to
offer more than al explicit denial. was
aware that IL an interested party my state
meut would have little effect beyond the
limits of my personal Appropriateness. Now,
however, " hen my action cannot he fairly
attributed TO purely selfish motives. it
seems to me that Il repetition Of that de
NAL, which make without qualification,
should bv sufficient for any honorable man.
Il have never denied and do not now de
ny that | contributed to the campaign fund
hot 5000, but yet Il considerable sum Of
money. Siuccrrly believing a. did that
a continuation OF Republican supremacy

THE COMING RACES AT BENNING.

Prospects That 1t Will BE the Best Meet
ing Ever Held in the District.
The spring meeting of the Washington Jockey
Club begins on the oath instant and lasts twelve
days. The club will begin its meeting under
the most favorable auspices, and if good weather
prevails will record the most successful race
meeting ever given in the District.
There are now at the track more than $50
horses, and with as many more booked to ar
rive the chances for q two swceks' guessing is
likely to be Of the first order.
great deal OF interest centers in this meet
ing and horsemen will be here in numbers as
on previous occasions. to watch out for a two
year-old wonder. rs it will be remembered that
some Of the noted horses Of the turf in the past
ten years began their racing career here in the
District.
OF these may he mentioned the names OF
Eurus, Eolian, Raceland, Miss Woodford, Dry
Monopole, Telie Doe (Washington's favorite)
and last, but king Of them all, Morale, whose
e125, 1000. He was offered for sale
before he started in q race for $1,000,
but afterward %, 500 was paid for him. A
world beaten as a two-year-old it does not
follow that he will carry everything in his
three-year-old form. Yet it is supposed he will
pay his keeping before the season is over.
There are now at the track possibly seventy
five youngsters, every stable Boosting OF own
ership Of one or more that have "done'' half
mile in ffty-one seconds, which means at this
early season q performance of the highest order
and worthy of close watching as the future
bread winners of the turf.

Will Send His Dog Out OF Town.

An old colored man named Anthony Peyton,
whose home is not far from Florida avenue and
18th street, was before the Police Court this
morning because his dog had annoyed some OF
his neighbors. The old man hated to give mp
his dog, but the judge told him that such a
canine could not be permitted at large in the
city.
"Dogs are Of no use in the city anyway" the
judge told him.
Anthony did not want to kill his dog, nor did
he want TO pay e10 fine, and so the Judge
compromised the matter by allowing the old
man 10 send his dog out of the city.

The New Supervising Architect.

There have been many inquiries at the
Treasury Department for Mr.. o'ROurke. the
new supervising architect. Mr.. ORourke has
not as yet arrived in the city, and as His APP
pointment does not go into effect until the
10th instant, it is not probable that he will be
here until next week.
