"While l am a personal friend of Maj. Mckinley, I am also his friend in principle. In New York the feeling is for Mckinley among the masses. The machine is against him, and every effort is being made to prevent his nomination at St. Louis. Whether Morton will withdraw or not, I can not say. In regard to McKinley's money policy, l will say that there is no money issue at the front in the pres- ent campaign. The tariff is the issue. Maj. Mckinley stands for the republi- can principle of sound money as the term is generally understood through out the country. His record in con- gress is opened to the world. What he has advocated in the past he will advocate in the future. If he is nomi- mated Maj. Mckinley will stand on the party platform on the money question. But as l said before, the tariff and not the currency is the issue at present"

duction in other Italian towns.
