Chicago, June "a special to the
Times Herald from Washington says:
ain an interview, Senator Cullom said
that if he goes to his home in Illinois
this week, he will stop on his way at
Canton, O., to see Major Mckinley.
The senator has not yet fully decided
what he will do when congress adjourns,
but it is likely he will go to Illinois, re-
turning in about two weeks to remove
his family from Washington to a cooler
climate He says that he is satisfied
Major Mckinley will be the nominee of
the St. Louis convention"
Senator Cullom further said:
"For several weeks have had no doubt
about the result of the convention. l am
more concerned about the platform. l
want to see the party come out for sound
money.
"Let us have no straddle. Let us
know exactly where we stand and what
we are fighting for, and then if we lose
the country will know who is response

am considerably concerned about the
condition of business. want to see
people seattle down and get to work and

satisfied that will never be done so long
as we are at sea on this money ques-
ton"
Senator Cullom will not attend the St.
Louis convention. It will be the frs
one he has missed since 1864. In this
connection he said:
"Since the nomination of Lincoln l
have attended every convention but one

Atthe last convention was so worn out
that I practically made up my mind
never to be a delegate again to national
conventions if I could possibly avoid it,

Cinoinnasi;- jane o-The Commercial
Castles special from Frankfort, KY,
says;
Governor Bradley has again donned
his lighting clothes and tomorrow an
iatervieE, probably supplemented by
some spicy documents, WILDE given out
for publication BY the Kentucky candi-
date for the presidency When it was
stated ssveral days ago that Governor
Bradley had not withdrawn his. name
from the presidential race, and had not
authorized anyone to withdraw his,
name. the sentiments Of the governor
were voiced to.the lettsT. Several days
ago statements were sent out from
Washington. which originated in Nc
KinIey circlss, to the effect that Gov.
eFnor Bradley wrote Major Mckinley
while he WIS at Thomasviiie, Ga, on
his southern tour, two wears ago, asking
his advice as to what currency position
ae should take, and intimating that he
bradley was favorable to free silver.
According to the Washington story,
Mckinley answered Bsadley, advising
him to. come o,.t for so8nd money. The
governor will touch on this matter in
his interview tomorrow. When it is
stated that two sets Of Ohio letters are
in the governors possession, and also
letters from othes presidential candi-
dates on the currency question, who
were askeS for advice al The time Brad
ley wrote McKinAey at Townsville, in
aerest of a national character will be
created The letters from Mckinley
will net be published IN the interview,
as they are conhdentizl, but Bradley ey,
identity believes that he wOAld be JUS
tilted in publishing iAem, since his letter
to Mckinley has been given ont by the
Mckinley managers at Washington.
While the governor does not feel that
ne can honorabiy say what the McKin-
4 ley letters contain, he will state in ais
interview what it does not say.
There are not less than FIVE letters in
Governor Bradley's possession from
presidential aspiraats written about the
time the Thomasville letter was penned,
and it IS more than probable hat two Of
these letters viii be used in the inter
view. 1t was Governor Bradley's in
tention 10 give out the statement to-
night. but he concluded TO hold con-
sultation with several republican lead

Bradley interview will be red hot and
somewhat sensational. It has been al

grams from Plat and Quay,
Have you authorized any interv lew

II have not" he replied.

The Bradley interview is being care

An important Decision.

An important telephone decision was
recently rendered by the supreme
court of Indiana. A man who had or.
dered his own telephone out asked 8
order his team from a livery stable
for him. The telephone company re-
fused to connect this subscriber with
the stable unless he would promise to
bar out the man who had given UP his
own telephone. The case went to law,
and the supreme court says that prop
err service must be made without dis
elimination or Partially. So far as
reports have gone, the telephone COM
panies have attempted very little die
tation and therein have shown wise
and far-sighted management.
The Hartford Courant. commenting
upon the attitude Of the telephone
company in this case says: Here is
a, a regular paying subscriber, who
likely being on a wire has urged
friends to take the service also and so
has helped the company The inter-
ests of the two are common. He de-
cides to ask the stable to send BIS
horse around for him. and the COM
papy declines to give him the connec-
ton unless he'll promise not to do BIS
errand. But it happens to be the fact
that it's none of the company's bust
ness what A wants of the livery sta
BILE. Further the operator hasn't any
right to listen to find out. The duty
of the company is to furnish means
of communication between subscrib-
ers. That's all. What they say is
rome of its business.
