HE TALKS PLAIN.

Tom Watson States why He VIII Not
Withdraw.
New York. July 27-4Thc World this
morning publishes the following signed
dispatch from Thomson. Ga, signed
Thomas L. Watson"
To the questions asked me I reply as
follows:
/. w1l run the mo-, to the end.
>. | viii make the gh oven If Mr..
Sewa!l does no; Withdraw.
3. My opinion OF the Fit,y-second con-
Gress, which was arra!gned in my book.
has undergone no change.
4. am not political trader and will not
resign In Sawall's favor even II offered ii
cabinet position.
Having answered your questions, please
allow mo TO stntc briefly my reasons for
the replies to questions numbered and
.. ] allowed the use OF my name to save
my parry from extinction In my opinion
the continued existence of the peoples
party is ind ispensihle to tho success of
free silver. For me to Withdraw would
he for me 10 sign the death warrant OF my
party.
Ours is the party of free silver and We
maintained that principle while the dem
ocratir party in 1892 and in 1899 was max
ing war upon it. We do not think our
party should now close up and quit husi-
ness simply because the democrats have
partially duplicated our sign board.
If the democrats are so unreasonable MS
TO refuse popullsts OF tho South any RI cog
milton at all, that fact would show that
the rcal purpose Of their apperent adop-
ton of our principles is to kill our party
and not to enact those principles N the
law. If the democrats arc sincere they
win not try and put you on such terms
that every man in our party in the South
Will feel Illuminated and insulted. II Mr.
Bryan did not want our support. Sena-
tor Jones had no business at 81. LOUIS
at all. II Mr. Bryan does want our sup
port. be ought TO be willing 80 adopt inc
policy which viii most certainly assure
him that support, and that policy Is 10

of generosity IN the effort 10 procure "A

Chicago Ill., Oct. 14.-Wheat prices were

throughout the entire session there was
hesitation in tone and lack OF enthusiasm

trend of the information was the other way.
In the last fifteen minutes there was a

1T was said that New York had orders for
cargoes for India, but the report lacked
veriication At the opening prices were up
on the strength carried over from yester-
day. but the failure of Liverpool to reflect

was irregular, closing about lie under yes

Corn showed agreement with the motion
of wheat. At the opening buying was en-
couraged by higher Liverpool cables and
by large inspection from store, but the
influence and prices declined: May corn
opened from 295a to 29Ac, declined to 27s4c,
closing at 2S1sc, &c under yesterday. Cash
corn ruled easy and about 1ac lower

it when weakness assumed control or the
situation. May oats closed lSc under yester.
day. Cash oats were easy at decline OIL

morning, and prices fell away sharply. A
decline of sc in hog values was ostensibly
the immediate factor, but the recent adj
vances were apparently viewed as of doubt
full merit, and holders were willing sellers to
obtain profits. At the close january poriS
was 25c under yesterday and January lard
