He is Not Supporting Any Combina-

Mr.. James l.. Norris denies with much en-
phass the gossip which was spoken of in
The Evening Star last Saturday to the eff
feet that he was inclined TO support a ticket
of delegates to the democratic convention
at Chicago headed by Mr.. ]. Fred Kelly
and ex-Warden Burke. Mr.. Norris stated
today that he has had no communication
direct or indirect with Mr.. Burke and his
friends, and knows nothing whatever of
tteir plans or purposes. or If they have
any. He said any rumor connecting him in
any way with such a. movement as that
mentioned is without any foundation what
ever, and further declared that the friends
of Mr.. Kelly could have no other solution
for the use of his name in such a connec-
ton than that it was design on the part
of some persons to injure him by placing
him in a false position! before the District
democracy, which triumphantly elected him
an alternate to the national convention
four years ago.
