who belong to it give their attention to

do this are the r;ff-raff Of the world and

There are a number Of Chicago stock

CINCINNATI, O., June 12.-senator
and Mrs. Teller remained here tonight
while enroute from Washington to st.
Louis. They resume their journey to'
morrow. Senator Teller was inter-
viewed by the Enquirer, the free silver
paper, as follows:
"What do you think the Republicans
Will do at St. Louis, SENATOR"
"I think that Mckinley will be the
nominee on q gold standard platform"
In that event what will you do?"
81 do not wish to make any statement
further than that which ls already on
record. VIXEN the Republican state
convention Of Colorado was In session l
telegraphed them that did not desire to
go to St. Louis. but that II my party
sent me ] would not support gold
standard candidate for President on q
gold standard platform. or on plat
form Of doubtful import or In Other
words a strlddle. Not only did the con-
ventIon elect me. but instructed the
other delegates 30 be governed by my
action. did not like that because It Is
rather embarrassing that other men
should be forced to do as ] might do.
81 do not say anything about that,
but my declaration 10 tn. Republicans
OF Colorado is on record and you can
draw whatever conclusions you please
from that"
"Will any OF the other silver senator's
from the west refuse TO support a gold
Standard"
Certainly"
you have no idea that Senator Car
ter, of Montana. chairman OF the Re-
publican national committee, Will re-
fuse TO support the ticket under such
circumstances
Eyes, he viii, and so will Dubois,
Mantle and Cannon"
'Do you believe the Democrats will
go for silver"
"It looks very strongly that way
"Would you support free silver
Democrat as against n gold Republic

Special Dispatch 10 tho IntellIgencer.
WASHINGTON, b. c, June l2-Rcp-
resentative Huling, Of the Third West
Virginia district, will not be n candI-
date for recollection. This announcement
will cause surprise and regret 10 his
friends in the state and out, but TO
n number OF his party associates 1t Is
not strictly news More than three
months ago he informed some Of those
whom he knew best. In confidence, that
he did not expect to again become
candidate; to n few he said he could
not accept. All doubts are at rest, how
ever, for Mr.. Hullng has addressed a
letter 10 Col John Cooper, chairman
Of the Republican committee In his dis
trIct, notifying him Of his decision.
Mr.. Huling's course In Congress, as
all know, has been most creditable TO
himself and to his party, aNd, AS many
may not know. he has been strongly
| urged by leading business men Of both
parties TO accept q second term. Tho
expressions OF confidence he has re-
Ceived have been in the highest de-
gree guarantee OF reelection.
He Is in close touch with the leaders
Of the party in the house. and those to
whom he COMMUNICATED his purpose Of
retiring at the end OF his present term
sought by various arguments to dis
suade him. He feels, however, that his
private business Is paramount and re-
Earding II as certain that Republican
will he elected 10 succeed him. he has
concluded to make his position known
in order to give others time 10 make
n canvass.
Mr.. Hullng left for Charleston to-
night. In conversation with the In
teillGencer correspondent, while await
ing the train, he said there was no
doubt whatever Of the Republicans
maintaining their Supremacy in the
district as well as state, and that who
ever should he chosen as the congress
sional standard bearer TO succeed him
would receive his most cordial support
which OF course goes without saying.

NEW YORK, June 12.--R. G. Dun &
Cos weekly review OF trade, which is
