Presidency.
The Clarion Ledger, Jackson, Miss, prints
the following letter from Hon. W. G. Whit
ney, of New York:
New YORK, February Is, 1896.
To the Editor OF the Clarion Ledger.
Sir: From recent Issues OF your paper
sent me by some friend, learn that Mr. W.
S. McCalister has been circulating in your
cit Y among prominent Democrats petition
requesting me to become candidate for the
Presidential nomination of the Democratic
party. In the course Of the controversy
which naturally arose from such effort on his
part he SPEAKS of himself as one OF the "prin-
cipal managers of the Whitney movement In
this State (Nlsslssippi)' Ifsimilar proceed
ngs were taken AMI similar words employed
with regard to another person, [ should as
sume that he was aware OF what was being
DONE l, therefore, desire to disclaim any
knowledge of any such movement, whatever
that may mean, and l request any friend OF
nine not to Join it, 1t is doubtless intended
ln friendly spirit, but has not my approval
Or concurrence.
g. From the same source OF Information l
learn that some persons have believed me a
supporter OF the view that the United States
should open its mints to the free coinage OF
silver at 16 to independently Of the coop
Grafton and action OF other nations, and in
that belief have been led into false position
as regards their own principles. Under
these circumstances 1 ought to say that do
not believe in that theory Of finances, but
consider It unsound, and is adopted likely TO
lead to most evil consequences to cur people
and their industries and prosperity. 1t is, in
nv opinion, fundamentally wrong and VIC
ious.
8. am believer in gold and silver as tho
metallic basis of values and of the world 8
currency, and am confident tha. within q
time not far distant there will be concur
renee OF the nations upon that subject, by
which the ratios OF value OF the two metals
for the coinage and currency purposes will
bo fixed and the stability Of such values
maintained by an international agreement
am aware this view is looked upon as f.
nancial heresy by some, and as visionary
by others. But such persons must be them
selves ignorant OF the latest developments OF
scientific thought upon this subject and tho
rapid advancement this view is making,
where, heretofore, it has hal little support
4. Until that occurs l believe any action by
the Unitol States alone would be disastrous
to us, would bring general ruin to our pres
ent prosperity, and would hinder the true
and final solution of the problem.
5. These opinions do not entertain or ex'
rress as a cannidate for the Presidency, for
which office have already said l would not
be q candidate, but in order that your peo-
pie who have views differing from those may
not be deceived as to mine.

not practically a double suicide is question.
A letter ostensibly by both parents left for

meditated s-icido for some time, and resolv-
ed to die ogether.
This declaration, however is opposed by
the fact that when found the wife, who
had retired was In her robe, had one arm
thrown across her face as If to shield 1t, and
o bullet In the arm, while the husban was

account of poor health. They came to Mad

the part OF the husband or intended suicide
on the part OF both can be assigned for the
deed
