RUSSELL is NOT A CANDIDATE
Declares Himself UncOmprOmisinpIy
Opposed to Free silver.

New Y ork, April 26.-The World will TO-
morrow print the following signed state
ment of Ex-Governor w. N. Russell of
Massachusetts. in response to question
from one of its staff correspondents:
Il am greatly surprised to hear that the
action of the Massachusetts convention
has attracted any special notice outside
the state. While | greatly appreciated the
compliment of an Endorsement by my
state, | am not seeking the nomination.
nor am desirous of being the candidate,
nor do | wish any movement made in any
state outside of my own. Already l have
earnestly requested that no such move
ment be made in any other state by friends
of mine
1.-THE important thing now is to make
every effort to have the democrats take
an absolutely sound position on the money
question without evasion or compromise.
l believe this is of vital consequence to
the party for its present and its future
am firmly of the opinion that our national
platform ought to explicitly and emphat-
ically oppose the free coinage of silver or
its compulsory purchase or any compro-
mise legislation in that direction, and that
it ought to indorse and commend the ad-
ministration of President Cleveland for IFS
resolute work in maintaining our present
gold standard and in preserving the credit
of the nation. l think ii would be neither
right nor wise to attempt to avoid a strnd-
die of this question by any ambiguous or
meaningless declaration. The time has
passed for that The issues must be made
and fought OUT
